Unqualified minorities in jobs as tokens so an organization can stand up and say look I hired a minority. How do you prevent that? People who are fully and more importantly more qualified for jobs and schools are pushed aside in the name of political correctness. I ain't buying it and I do not support it.
Can you show ANY evidence that less qualified minorities being hired or promoted is prevalent? I'm sure it happens, (we read about it in the conservative biased media) but is it really a significant issue? How often does it really happen?

More often, a white person with a highschool diploma is hired over a minority with a college degree.

You can't make a playing field level just by saying that's the way it should be. Racists and predjudiced "hirers" and "promoters" will merely continue what they've been doing - discriminating against minorities.
