But in general, I am always hearing people accuse conservatives of being racists and most of the time the accusations are completely unfounded. Just because a person is against affirmative action, etc., that doesn't make them a racist. In fact, you could argue the exact opposite.

If Helms was such a racist, why did he have a black press secretary?

a caller to larry king when helms was a guest thanked helms for 'keeping down the _______' to which helms replied 'thanks.'
