Yes, somehow, "white men" are being lumped together as a voting block, when in reality, they are quite diverse in their opinions. Not sure what can be done about it. There is a thread on here about a father who is about to go to prison for falling behind on child support under extenuating circumstances. The "father's movement" is small though, and often ignored. I know that there are white men who need to have their issues addressed, and there are white men who take the time to stand up for the disenfranchised, even when the issues they fight for are only indirectly related to them. We, the disenfranchised on the left, need to give you guys more credit. Keep speaking out and eventually, you will be heard.
