Why did Jeb lead the charge/assault against Ward Connerly and his anti-racial preferences referendum in FL?

Nice fact twist. Anti-affirmative action was his claim to fame and they both rejoiced in the loud opposition.

As for "charge/assault", either I missed that episode or 2001 (when OneFlorida was in its hayday and Kalifornica businessman Connerly was making noise) had an overshadowing news happenstance.

So tell me again why you say JEB is FOR affirmative action??? Try not to phrase your answer as a question.

"First of all, there is still a need to end preferences in Florida because, regretfully, Governor Jeb Bush’s One Florida Initiative is woefully inadequate as it leaves, untouched, state law and local policies that give preferences on the basis of race and gender. Preferences and other forms of race-conscious policies simply have been restructured under ‘One Florida.’"
