It was Ward "Money Bags" Connerly and Andy "Candy" Thomas who figured that this white bread-and-mayo state of ours needed less diversity, not more.

[edit] Connerly’s Anti Affirmative Action Measure Could be a Win-Win for McCain

28 July 2008, by Earl Ofari Hutchinson In 1998 Republican Presidential contender John McCain drew howls from conservatives when he opposed Senator Mitch McConnell’s federal transportation bill that would have replaced race- and gender-contracting set-asides with ones designed to help small businesses no matter the race or gender of the owner.
