UNLESS you are a tribal member you're lily white buttocks had better be pretty careful trying to pull the native American card. Call the Cherokee tribal council and see if you qualify, they've recently changed their standards and you honkies that are like 1/84th Cherokee no longer make the cut. I think I read that you have to be at least 1/4 or maybe 1/8th proven Cherokee blood to qualify for tribal membership.

Also even at UAL where "they only hire minorities" about 8% of the pilots are of minority status. Which if you are able to do the math in your head, means that 92% of the pilots there were not hired due to minority quota issues.

So most of this I didn't get hired because I'm a poo white boy stuff is total baloney. In my class at UAL we had 21 guys no women and one minority who also happened to be an F-16 guard guy that was extremely qualified. Which if you look at the stats is a pretty typical new hire mix at most airlines.
