If I were one of the groups who benefit from affirmative action (WASP here) I would take offense at the thought that I wasn't good enough to get the (Job/scholarship/house/whatever) based on my own merits.
Affirmative action is worse than plain racism, because it's a legally recognized and accepted way to treat one group more favorably than another. Racism by any other name would smell as shitty, or something.
