Entry: McCain is even worse than you thought Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/mccain_is_even_worse_than_you_thought#31995 Post contents: "As late as 1995, McCain voted against federal funding that would have been used for affirmative action programs. Then in 1998 he swerved leftward, not only refusing to back a referendum in Washington that would have banned minority preferences in education and state employment but also stressing the need for such preferences as a useful tool. McCain defended them as a “means of leveling the playing field in education.” I wonder what the time-frame is for the McCain's adoption of their noticably dark-skinned child from (Malaysia?). Certainly this was a very compassionate and loving action on their part, however, it almost invariably turns white families into multi-culturalists and multi-racialists. We should not underestimate the effect of a non-white spouse or child in shaping one's social positions. Sent at: 2008 12 01
