I apologize if my comment came across as racist. I'm from Pakistan, and a lot of doctors in the area I went to college are from India/Pakistan. My white/black classmates told me that they find doctors from my part of the world to be better. Again, that's what my classmates said, not me. When they say "from my part of the world", they're are basically including me in that group because yeah I am from that part of the world. I don't see where my comment was racist because I was only mentioning something that my friends said. It wasn't my opinion. But still I apologize if it came across that way.

Isn't that what Affirmative Action does? I think including american citizens for residency (which is paid for by federal tax dollars) would qualify under said laws.

I'm not stirring the pot here, rather looking at it from a different point of view.

they need to give US citizens that are IMG residency spot.
How can be that the USA prefer to give 3,000+ residency spots to nonUS residents and only 1,000+ residency to US citizen?
Besides there are many and I mean MANY people that grew up out of USA, but are US citizens because of their parents and then they decide to practice in USA.

So the philosophies of IMG US citizen a failure is not correct.
