I am not interested in splitting the white vote.

Affirmative action works but we're going to need to muster all our political resources if we are to keep it in place.

What is so remarkable about the success of affirmative action is that it has been accomplished despite the Justice Department and the policies of the federal government.

The third fallacy is that affirmative action doesn't work.

That fallacy flies in the face of studies that show, every day, in every way, things are getting a little worse for America's minorities relative to the progress made by those in the top percentiles of assets and income.
