Spot on! Affirmative Action has always, systematically discriminated against Americans of Asian descent, Americans of Pacific-Island descent, and Native Americans. Moreover, A-A clearly violates Equal Protection under the 14A of the U.S. Constitution and the Civil Rights Act (1964). A-A simply institutionalized "patterns and practices of invidious discrimination". Many thought the patterns of racial and gender discrimination were "ennobling" and made their positions "morally superior". The result has been decades of intentional discrimination based on race and gender versus performance. 

NYC's Mayor attempted to change the admission tests to the city's elite charter schools. The reason?  Too many Americans of Asian descent scored well. DeBlasio wanted to set "enrollment targets" aka Affirmative Action to systematically eliminate Asian-American and Caucasian students. Merit is simply removed with A-A. Yet the vile discrimination isn't morally acceptable in U.S. Democracy.
