One in particular caught my eye:

Here's another that blows my mind...

Thus, affirmative action does not call for the admission of students of color who lag behind their peers. It simply serves to increase the representation of women and minorities in areas where they have been historically underrepresented...

Thus, affirmative action does not call for the admission of students of color who lag behind their peers [1]. It simply serves to increase the representation of women and minorities in areas where they have been historically underrepresented...[2]

Thus, you cannot possibly get to [2] without totally embracing the affirmative of [1]. If one merely seeks to provide equal opportunity for all starting at Kindergarten, then a whole generation of "deserving" victim class citizens will be underrepresented in professional careers.

Furthermore, after striving for a generation to provide equal opportunity in education for all, what does one do when the hoped-for results in the professional career demographics do not materialize? Blame racism and sexism again and re-institute hardcore quota affirmative action?
