I have no idea what you are getting at with that word salad, but Americans are against racist admissions by a 2 to 1 margin. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/

Or... not and the results of polls heavily depend on how the question is asked. Apparently more people say affirmative action is good than bad. So maybe? Even the pew poll gets wildly inconsistent results depending on the question. The only consistent thing in all the graphs is the left/right split and you're more likely to be against affirmative action when it's selecting against you.

    Affirmative action doesn't seem to fare well when it's a subject of a referendum, even in otherwise "deep blue" states where you'd expect the public sentiment to be in favor of it.

  "Racist admissions" lol. American society is systematically racist. Americans have a horrible legacy of racism and, frankly, haven't dealt with it.
