I may be giving too much but I think some writers tried to steer public opinion lessen hatred using characters like Archie as a tool. If you pay attention over the course of the series while he never becomes good a lot of the hate lessened and he'll admit people or things he hated were ok.

I.e. the racists become emotionally attached to him, so when Archie "learns" they will. (In theory)

I do think that was the intent. All in the Family was progressive show for the time.
