Affirmative Action—anti-white quotas—will almost certainly not figure in the November 22 GOP Presidential Candidates debate. That’s despite the fact that polls show Affirmative Action is overwhelmingly unpopular with the Republican base and would be a perfect issue to win back the Reagan Democrats—white blue collar workers who are the party’s only real path to a sustainable majority. Ironically, the man most responsible for this suicidal self-denial seems also to be emerging as the front-runner: Newt Gingrich.
At the time of this writing, Gingrich has moved to the top of the polls, a few points ahead of Mitt Romney and a fading Herman Cain. Ron Paul still has a solid core of supporters but lost some of them (including me) when he came out for amnesty. Michelle Bachman has an excellent record on illegal immigration but has not emphasized the issue and has completely avoided legal immigration. Rick Santorum and Jon Huntsman remain flat liners in the polls. Rick Perry remains a flat liner in his encephalograms.
Snip
Peter Brimelow, who came off his Alien Nation book tour to attend this dinner, tells me that Gingrich explicitly eschewed the idea of ending quotas, arguing it would upset “soccer moms”—and J.C. Watts. Gingrich insisted the quota issue was not helpful to his plan to build a “modern” party.
Remember, this was at a time when the GOP had majorities in both houses of Congress, enjoyed overwhelming public support to end preferences—and even had a black man, Ward Connerly, walking point on the issue. Connerly’s Prop 209 in California was well ahead in the polls and was to pass overwhelmingly in November 1996.
If there was any time to end the curse of quotas, it was 1995. And Gingrich made sure it never happened. He and Watts worked hard to kill the Civil Rights Act of 1997, co-sponsored by Sen. Mitch McConnell and Rep. Charles Canady.
More than any other person, Newt Gingrich is responsible for the continuation of anti-white racial preferences in America.
