We don’t need to play the affirmative action game. Michael Steele stand on his own competence.

Kind of ironic seeing as Michael Steele is a big supporter of affirmative action. Not a very "conservative" position.

Well there’s affirmative action which is a voluntary approach to encouraging more people across the spectrum to get into positions and then there’s quotas, which is not the original intent.

Historically, the former was hijacked by the latter. Not sure about Michael Steele’s personal view or how that would play into a national role.
