His rant against affirmative action (if you watched that far into the video) is another bit of oddness. He seems to think it means filling quotas with people, rather than qualifications. Affirmative action actually means stepping up recruiting if you’re missing minorities from the workplace. It’s about getting applicants into the pool. THEN you make a choice to fill the position based on qualifications. If you have more minorities in the pool, you are more likely to find one that is qualified, just like any kind of pool. Playing the odds.

I’m guessing he sees someone in a job who looks or talks differently than him, and he assumes that this person is unqualified. THAT’s racism.
