The piece argues affirmative action is defined by quotas via federal rules and lawsuits, cites Fuller ton California as example, and urges Colin Powell to pursue a non quota form of action. It contrasts supporters who cite open opportunity with critics who demand color blind fairness. It concludes a move away from quotas could ease federal tensions.

The piece warns Democrats face limits, with Mississippi's Fordice victory showing southern white-voter resistance to liberal shifts.
