Who said all the whites are having a mulatto kid? Blacks are only 13% of the US population.

So in this thought experiment of yours, all blacks mix with whites and produce mulattoes with 97 IQ as opposed to mulattoes with 92.5 IQ. And this 4.5 IQ difference is the "net positive". Okay then, I was thinking something else.

Read the actual study please. Only 20% of the sample were African-Americans. 80% were French Africans and France has mandatory conscription for all citizens.

Tell this to Jensen, I was only citing him.

Him not repeating it does not mean he changed his mind, it means he already suggested it and didn't need to suggest it again.

That's not how it works. In that very paper he was repeating some arguments about IQ he made twenty years ago. So he has no problem with that. And the paper was basically a review of literature in the field so you are supposed to repeat the arguments you or others made. And even if he didn't want to repeat himself on this for whatever reason, he would at least referenced his 1998 work where he made that argument. The fact that he did not do any of those things means that he did change his mind.
