Affirmative action makes you strong

My highest respect to the newly appointed Supreme Judge, Sonia Sotomayor, for her comments in tonight's CBS "60 Minutes". She mentioned that she was admitted to Princeton Uni. when the other two students in her high school with better grades did not due to affirmative action. Because of that, she always needs to be "stubborn" to work much harder than her colleagues to prove that she deserves to be better than any others. This sobering reflection probably reverberates in every non-Caucasian mind in the U.S. societies of every walks of life.
