It's no surprise I enjoyed this because I agreed with every point made, but even my wife (a bit left leaning but I'm working on her) approved! Yes, she actually laughed at a conservative political video. Progress!

Affirmative Action explained

Factually correct but without a lick of showmanship.

It ends up being a morality lecture which is inherently boring and tiresome even if you support the message. I'd vote for "racial bake sales" and various other types of street theater so beloved by lefties and so effective when used by conservatives that it drives lefties crazy.

Good video, Jimmy!

Arpad, are you speaking of John Stossel's cupcake bake sale? It that is the one, it is good too.  :P

Yes! I'd forgotten about that but college affirmative action bake sales have also drawn a pretty fair amount of attention. It seems like college administrations just totally lose their bearings and get so heavy-handed that they make a case for a conservative outfit like FIRE to drag them into court.

Too bad some fairly well know conservative or conservative publication doesn't push the idea of a national affirmative action bake sale.

Having bake sales like that in a couple of hundred colleges on the same day might punch through the media's determined indifference and put the issue on the front burner again.
