    Quickly, lower the standards for minority candidates! We don't want the best. We want the most colorful!

    If you name the best 22 football players in the NFL, how many quarterbacks will be in that list? Quickly, go find any top 100 or whatever list, and at or near the top you'll have Brady, Rodgers, Newton, for starters. Go back five years and it's Manning, Brady, Rodgers, Brees etc. But put those top 22 guys on a team and you're going to struggle to win many games.

    Here's 2015's (as voted by the players):https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFL_Top_100_Players_of_2015

    5 QBs, 6 WRs, 4 RBs.

    Point being, the whole isn't necessarily the sum of the parts.

      Well the idea that a bunch of old white ivy league guys probably don't represent the interests of most American people is not that crazy of an idea to me.

      I actually agree with it.

            Maybe not with final say - experience is still something that can't be taught, and a lot of young people would be very heedless with changing anything and everything. But as part of the decision making process, absolutely. It's not hard to see why young (especially minority) people get disengaged with the political process when it's just full of old (mainly white) people.

                        I don't understand why this is so hard to understand for some folks. The problem is people get stuck with hearing the word "white" and go in turtle shell defense mode. The truth is hiring a bunch of the same, like-minded group of people to make decisions for a diverse nation of people is stupid, no matter the color, race, or anything else.

                          Well for certain thinking that all white people think the same way is stupid.

                                    So you've finally figured us out! That all of us privileged white folks think exactly the same way. Next time I see Donald Trump and Harry Reid at the groupthink for white oppressionists meeting down at the white privilege club I will have to let them know those rascally minorities are catching on to the game...

                                        I don't understand why this is so hard to understand for some folks. The problem is people get stuck with hearing the word "white" and go in turtle shell defense mode. The truth is hiring a bunch of the same, like-minded group of people to make decisions for a diverse nation of people is stupid, no matter the color, race, or anything else.

                                        Well for certain thinking that all white people think the same way is stupid.

                                        Eh not really what I was saying, in fact this comment is exactly what I'm talking about. Diversity can even be bringing in people who don't fit part of the hive-mind of an organization or government, but I think you're fooling yourself if this happens. All I'm saying is when a group of people who all think the same way make decisions for a ton of people it creates stupid policies and even laws. I think anyone who has worked in customer service can relate to that.

                                          So then why single people out by race and then comment that they are suffering from groupthink? That's exactly what people were saying.
