Contributing sentiments towards policy:
59% : In fact, the clock has been ticking on affirmative action since 2003, when a more moderate court sustained the use of race as a factor in college admissions.49% : Among the justices sure to vote against affirmative action is the senior member of the court, Justice Clarence Thomas.
42% : As a Black man with long experience of affirmative action, Thomas has argued -- echoing the great abolitionist Frederick Douglass -- that the supposed benevolence of racial preferences is harmful to those it purports to help.
