| In the form of Prop 16, but they have been trying, Dennis, from day one to rescind, repeal Proposition 209 that we steered through in 1996. So, | |
| if this proposition passes, that means that the state of California Can hire and fire, well, forget fire, but can hire and admit students on the basis of color? | |
| Goes beyond that, my friend. | |
| It means that any governmental entity can discriminate under the umbrella Provided to them by the people of California, and discrimination would be explicitly understood to be preferential treatment. | |
| You can apply whatever standards you want. | |
| It's important for everyone to understand that the language of Proposition 209, which is now enshrined in our state constitution, That small s shall not discriminate against or grant preferential treatment to any individual or group on the basis of race, | |
| sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin in the operation of public employment, public education, or public contracting. | |
| The thing that is often overlooked by many who review this issue is that state is understood by them to mean capital S, state government, | |
| when in fact it's the Mosquito Abatement District, it's the University of California, it is your local city and county, it is any public agency that is considered part of the state. | |
| Right. | |
| So, if this is passed, what happens? | |
| What happens is that this now leftist, and I don't say that in a pejorative sense, but just as a reflection of reality, this leftist The conglomerate of politicians and bureaucrats will be vindicated in their belief that it's okay to discriminate. | |
| And they will, in every entity, I believe, look at things that they can do to address, quote, disparities. | |
| I probably should give you a little bit more background, my friend. | |
| I believe that what we're witnessing is the realization of Senator Sanders' campaign theme, which was that we're going to transform America. | |
| That is playing out right now, although he is not... | |
| The nominee of the Democrat Party, that transformation is playing out in our beloved state of California. | |
| Prop 16 is one reflection of that, primarily because it is the vehicle that will drive the transformation project. | |
| That's right. | |
| Alright, let me just tell everybody. | |
| It is noprop16.info. | |
| Ward Connolly is a hero, in my opinion. | |
| He's a very courageous man. |
