    HI:

    Thanks for this possibly damaging information.

    I think it is devastating and an insult that we cannot decide through affirmative action that Native Americans, Hispanics and blacks MUST be put at the head of the line in FRONT of evreyone else. Funding will dry up for these diversity programs if A46 passes! We all agree that we have to allow diversity to all non-whites and especially all women (white too!).

    Isn't Connorly a black man? NO TO A46!

    Affirmative action is reverse discrimination! Every person is created equal and has all of the potential of the free world at their fingertips. As long as we segregate ourselves by race, sex, religion, or any minority group then we question the principal of equality. The proof lies in the recent victory of Barrack Obama. He was voted into the highest office in the World as the first Black American President. The Country will never be united if we continue to label ourselves into special interest groups.
