Some Words of Advice for Schott and Jackson
An open letter to Marge Schott and Jesse Jackson:
To reply to Schott’s statement, “It was my mouth, but not my heart speaking”: It won’t come out of your mouth, Marge, unless it’s already in your heart.
And a quick word for Jackson, the self-appointed spokesman: Instead of trying to institute some sort of quota system based merely on skin color, why not let excellence, ability, moral integrity and intelligence be the guidelines? The cream always rises to the top, Jesse. Let it be.
