Because the Senate is over 90% white, and most of the rest are at least half-white.

To people in this country, that's what leadership looks like, so if you grade based on leadership, that's what you're going to get. Not playing identity politics here, just stating a fact.

Remind me of the relationship between the Senate and testing for college admissions.
