it doesn't and that's a common logical fallacy.
The Queen proves nothing. Neither do Rice or, for that matter, Clarence Thomas: they didn't have slaves or sharecroppers in England, now did they, a generation ago?
You'd also do well to consider how much diversity exists in England: it's still a very white country with nowhere near the people of color we have.
There are stats which SHOW the ability of the poor to elevate themselves across different cultures and countries: these are sociological studies using accepted research methodology.
The cabinet of Britain, btw, is known as the Scottish Mafia. Now THAT'S diversity!
