Top five ways to bring men back to the party [View all]

54% of men voted for Romney. This is a problem to be solved, not a validation of Democratic tactics.

1) Create a White House Office of Men's health. Men die younger of every preventable cause in part because 30% less is spent on their care. Men deserve equal consideration in this regard, like the WH office of Women's Health provides.

2) A fathers advocacy office in the department of Civil Rights to evaluate and enforce the civil rights of fathers in family courts.

3) Enforcement of immigration law. H1B visas are limited by law at 65,000, yet 820,000 were issued in 2012. In a country that only employs 1.5 million engineers, this is ridiculous. The purpose of promoting foreign workers and tolerating illegal ones is to lower wages, and it hits men and their families hardest. The below graphic illustrates what has happened to men's wages in the last four decades.


4) Create a White House council for Men and Boys. The first task of this group would be to understand why boys are disproportionately disciplined, given poor grades despite better test scores, drop out of High School and fail to graduate from college. In short, to understand why education is failing them and fix it.

5) Eliminate Draft registration. If men don't register for the draft, they are ineligible to apply for student aid to attend college. It's a barrier that is both discriminatory and pointless. The kind of conflict which would require an immediate draft would be over in four days.

Bonus: Adopt a constitutional amendment which says; Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.
