"And this change in the culture helps explain why Hispanics and Asians are beginning to form all sorts of special interest groups, modelled after the NAACP and the like, to lobby for more goodies and discrimination against white people, which is politely referred to as "affirmative action.""

Asians don't benefit from affirmative action policies, at least not in education. Furthermore, almost 40% of both Hispanics and Asians marry outside their ethnic group these days. How do you think this will affect the future of the ethnic special interest groups?

The Asian population in California, despite its reputation for conservatism, voted against Prop. 187, which was intended to end welfare for illegal immigrants, and also voted against Proposition 194, which was intended to end affirmative action. Of course, these same Asians also voted heavily for Al Gore.

My guess is that their children will follow this liberalism. After all, under affirmative action, anyone with some minority ancestry may end up benefitting.
