....and as a human being ,Carroll 'O'Connor was the complete opposite of Archie. Left wing. Affirmative action, etc.A tangent, perhaps of interest, perhaps not: The Archie Bunker character in TV's "All in the Family" was a shtick. Norman Lear wrote him to be a huge bigot, expecting people to recognize the extremism and be outraged by it. He was pretty disappointed to find how many people never did, and instead embraced the bigotry.
