You are basically insinuating that minorities are less qualified. Most companies aren't hard pressed to find qualified candidates with the selected quotas. Affirmative Action may have some flaws where exceptions happen pertaining to small businesses but overall it's been great for integrating minorities into US society.

Just having anti-discrimination laws only invokes theory and idealness. It's extremely hard for anyone to prove discrimination. With affirmative action, it turns theory into fact.
