Affirmative action has reached its predictable conclusion. It’ll be interesting to see what comes next.

We are already seeing the fanatical rear guard action by very institutions (government & education) where affirmative action is most deeply ingrained. It's far easier for the elites to defend a bankrupt idea than it is to re-think their institutional foundations. Thought is dangerous. You never know where it might lead.

Good thing the American people are largely incapable of such dangerous stuff! Would anyone be terribly surprised if a popular American Idol finalist were able to mount a respectable presidential campaign?
