If they wanted to go by merit, 50% or more of the people at Harvard wouldn't be there right now.

“We could fill our class twice over with valedictorians,” Harvard President Drew Gilpin Faust told an audience at the Aspen Ideas Festival, sponsored by the Aspen Institute and The Atlantic, on Monday. That means admissions officers rely on intangibles like interesting essays or particularly unusual recommendations to decide who comprises the 5.9 percent of applicants who get in.
https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/20/politics ... index.html
Family wealth and connections to the school; athletic superiority; and an African-American or Latino background all significantly enhance an applicant's chances. In some instances, students whose families pledged over millions of dollars to fund a building or endow professorships got an advantage, emails show.
But then coming from a household with an income of less than $60,000 or having a migrant parent can also provide a boost. And while gender does not make a difference, knowing Latin and Greek and showing an interest in the humanities might catch an admission officer's eye.
So in English, the majority of people getting into Harvard aren't getting in on Merit.

Trump cucked us. The time for arguments has passed. We are now at war. Operation Werewolf is a go. Everyone open their sealed orders and do not hesitate. Gl everybody. Red Dog out.
Trump didn’t constipulate, he negotiated an agreement in which the Democrats have to abide by.

Which means in three weeks if the Democrats don’t give him funding for the wall, we will be back to square one, he will call a state of emergency and get the wall built without the blessing of Congress.

Which I have said from day one of this shutdown, Trump is going to get his wall one way or another.

You don’t say:
“We have reached a deal to end the shutdown and re-open the federal government,”
Without having an ace up your sleeve, and those that don’t think Trump doesn’t have one is mistaken.

And if it comes down to it, and Trump stands by what he said?

Sorry, but I believe Trump more than the talking heads on TV. Especially those two...

So in other words, you just have nothing to say... good to know, a troll is a troll, is a troll.
