I can tell what is pragmatic in this argument.You don't know what's possible and impossible.
You should probably shut up once your arguments rely solely on a bizarre claim to know the future.
Reality shows that some Democrats support the idea of removing race from Affirmative Action and using socio-economic indicators. Reality shows that they do not support adding white male to the list.
One is pragmatic because it has far less travel time, much less convincing. But heck, you can go ahead and fight the "good" fight to get yourself on that Affirmative Action list.
