Number 5 seems like a leap.

  Do you agree that higher IQ (on average) makes a better programmer, and that as a group asians have higher IQs than blacks? If so, how do you expect blacks (as a group) to have the same number of quality programmers as asians? Again, I am NOT saying this needs to be inherently true in the future, that this is unsolvable, is genetic, etc. I am simply saying that today (on average) 18 year old asians have more intellectual ability than 18 year old blacks - and therefore, I would expect the asians (as a group) to do better in programming today. Maybe in 20 years the IQs of the various race groups will be equal. And if that becomes the case and there is still a gap, then my thesis is disproven. But that is not the case today.
