    • Abstract:
      The article reports that presidential candidate Bob Dole has fully embraced the California Civil Rights Initiative (CCRI), Proposition 209, to end race and sex preferences by state and local government in California. Some top CCRI supporters worried that Republican television advertisements which attacked Bill Clinton for opposing the initiative would drive away Democratic supporters while overshadowing the upbeat advertisements of the Proposition 209 campaign.
