Who said anything about constantly? |

You're right cjenny. This is a bizarre American belief, borne out of watching too many episodes of Oprah, that 'feelings' must constantly be discussed and verified. It's sentimental garbage.

oprah... haha seems like you watch it yourself... hmm the great sacrifices of buying them cars, paying for college, buying them a house when they get married, and paying for that wedding. thats a great sacrifice, but it brings the kids coming back for more and more... money cant buy love.

| All things being equal it obviously does. A doctor's first priority is to save lives and heal the sick, and that, first and foremost, requires a substantial knowledge and study of medicine. Social skills are secondary, though important. |
so someone that can heal you, but cant tell you what is wrong or refuses to answer you line of questions is ok?? most people shop for doctors that have a strong patient - doctor relationship... something that is near to impossible without those secondary skills |

IGNORAMUSES is an English word. Look it up since you don't know what it is or means.  |

| Blah. The whiteys in charge of the US will always be in charge. They are too stingy with their money. Minorities will keep on getting smarter, but they won't get more powerful. Call me back about this argument when the US gets a female/black/latino/asian president. |

As the link I posted showed, because of 'Affirmative Action', Asian Americans are discriminated against, not in favour of whites, but blacks and hispanics.
Moreover, Asian Americans already earn more than whites, and sooner or later, this will be translated into political power. |
