1.)What is AA? How does it work? You might be right. I am trying to look it up right now. I think what I was referring was racial quotas.
2.)I thought racial quotas was the same thing as Affirmative Action. What is Affirmative Action?
I was looking this up. I think you are referring to racial quotas. Affirmative Action is the practice of aggressively advertising job openings to minorities but does not require companies to hire unqualified candidates. Racial quotas do require companies to hire unqualified candidates. Affirmative action is not the same thing as racial quotas.
The federal government does practice racial quotas.
Yup unqualified people working in our federal .gov do you understand why America is toast now?
Here is something that I found. I guess I didn't realize what Affirmative Action was. I was thinking of racial quotas. The Marine Corps does practice racial quotas. To my understanding racial quotas would violate EEO laws.
They can think that,
It's just the government. They aren't hurting anybody.
Don't forget that part. It's what blacks suffer in this country and whites do not.
I wonder how many people of color are with the Heritage Foundation has?
I think it would be better if they knew the difference between Equal Employment Opportunity, Affirmative Action and racial quotas.
I didn't know the difference until just a few minutes ago.

you do realize we have members of congress that believe islands can flip over. Others think our constitution is 400 years old and that they should be writing obamas executive orders. i am doubting she understands she is supposed to writing the laws anyway. want me post the proof? i will just ask.
Wow...Affirmative action is the process of requiring large organizations to promote and hire employees in a way that ensure that the same percentage of applicants from each race group is equally represented in the hiring or promotion process.
Here is an example if you have 1000 applicants and 100 positions.
120 applicants are black
40 applicants are hispanic
20 applicants are asian
820 applicants are white
The company is required to hire these type of employees:
12 black people
4 hispanic people
2 asian people
82 white people
It gives equal opportunity for all race groups to cry foul. It is always administered the exact same way every single time.
Eleven people? wow, that's a lot. :roll:I don't know but it is a very large group with many pages of names, titles, and photos. It appears to be very ethnically and racially diverse with numerous Hispanics, Asians, African Americans and a number who are racially ambiguous and I really couldn't tell via name or photo. Just quickly scanning just under half the group, I was able to identify 11 people who were clearly African American including the Senior Production Specialist, the Director of Marketing, Research Programmer and policy analyst, Tech Services Managr, Sr Staff Associate, Internal Events Manager and others. Or check it out yourself here: Team
Does that help?
I'm still waiting for that fateful day when Guam capsizes.
Eleven people? wow, that's a lot. :roll:
The NAACP is quite diverse too, why would anyone call them a racist organization? Being so diverse.

Sigh. You don't read well do you. So many people who post ad hominem don't.Oh well. Too bad for you.
Those who DO read well will see that the Heritage Foundation does a really good job recruiting a broad cross section of Americana onto their team. I would not see any need for the NAACP to be racially diverse, however, given the purpose and mission of that organization.
They only have 173 employees. Yes, it's a lot. How many should they have? 171?
Membership numbers count. Last time I looked, the NAACP was a political organization.
Any program that awards any special treatment do to skin color is government sponsored racism.
So how do you correct hundreds of years of government sponsored enslavement, torture, rape, and psychological abuse that was directed against blacks without having programs that are specifically designed to give blacks a boost to compensate for the extreme obstacles that were put in their path?
