The idea that a lesser qualified applicant should be admitted and a more qualified applicant denied because the former is from a favored race and the latter is not is repugnant. From Jared Taylor at unz.com:

The Supreme Court’s decision on affirmative action and the reactions to it are the latest proof — as if any were needed — that politics in multiracial America are fractured beyond repair.
The best thing the decision did was demolish the idea that “diversity” on campus is so important that it justifies racial discrimination. As for the reactions, hysterical liberals — that is to say, Democrats and most of the media — genuinely seem to believe that the decision is a great victory for — guess what? — white supremacy.
First, let’s look at the racial discrimination in Harvard’s admissions policies, which was a big part of the case. Litigation often compels parties to cough up information they don’t want anyone to see.
Columnist and podcaster John Derbyshire has rightly called attention to this expert report. The author, Peter Arcidiacono, is an economics professor at Duke, and used admissions data Harvard was forced to turn over. This table calculates what a Harvard class would have looked like if admissions had been based strictly on grades and test scores, or what Harvard called its “academic index.” If Harvard had randomly accepted whites, black, Hispanics and Asians from the “top decile,” or top 10 percent on the academic index, shown on the bottom line, the admitted class would have been 36.54 percent white, 0.76 percent black, 2.69 percent Hispanic, and 51.52 percent Asian. That would mean completely disregarded race. As you work up from the bottom line, you can see class composition if Harvard had ignored race but selected from the top 20 or 30 percent, etc.. What was the actual racial mix of admitted students?
