The Koch brothers aren't leftist. They're libertarians. And not the evil left wingers make them out to be.

And isn't contributing to a charity that isn't really a charity and then deducting the money from your taxes as a charitable contribution tax fraud?

NYTimes on the rich people AA case:
A teenage girl who did not play soccer magically became a star soccer recruit at Yale. Cost to her parents: $1.2 million.
A high school boy eager to enroll at the University of Southern California was falsely deemed to have a learning disability so he could take his standardized test with a complicit proctor who would make sure he got the right score. Cost to his parents: at least $50,000.
A student with no experience rowing won a spot on the U.S.C. crew team after a photograph of another person in a boat was submitted as evidence of her prowess. Her parents wired $200,000 into a special account.

Legacy is a different thing. You can bribe the university. You can't bridge the coach.

That's basically bribery. But it didn't involve fraud. It was a straightforward transaction. So it was legal. It just makes Harvard look bad if people can buy their way in.

Obama was on Law Review--I think he was the editor--and then taught at the University of Chicago. You don't get on law review via a legacy admission or affirmative action. Nor do you get onto the law faculty of Univ. of Chicago. Obama was smart enough to be there (and to be president); you just don't like his politics.

That said, private schools can admit anyone they please for any reason they please--including Harvard admitting Jared because his dad made a big fat contribution. They can also refuse to admit anyone (including Asians). And they don't necessarily have to share their reasons for admissions decisions. As long as they are private and privately funded.

Pay that to Harvard in the form of a contribution, and maybe your kid gets in. Bribing the soccer coach to lie that your kid plays soccer when her foot has never touched a soccer ball? Not sure how that's illegal, but the coach should be fired.
