And anoteher one after that?

You don't know and neither does the applicant. Therefore both the minority and majority have a vested interest in being rid of AA. At some time in the not too distant future there will be a crossover point recognized by the minority. Every year that goes by, more minorities recognize this and more of them think it's time has passed. But they are still a small minority within the minority. I'll bet that when more or less half of the minority believe that AA is an unfair burden for everybody, then it will change. That will also require old fart minorty folks to die because they so clearly remember the injustice that they will be as unlikely to be rid of it's influence as a klan member.
Here's a bet: When 20% of blacks currently registered as Democrats change registration to Independent, Republican, or some third party, then AA will go away.
