Farrell to Challenge Democrats

This just in from the Farrell Campaign...



"CARLSBAD, Ca. At the Los Angeles Convention Center at 10:30 a.m. on
Saturday, September 13, Dr. Warren Farrell will challenge his
Democratic colleagues/opponents to take a quill pen in hand to sign
his "Ten Theses for 'Reformation' of the Democratic Party."



See Read More for details.
"Farrell's "Ten Theses" stress solutions he believes simultaneously
solve social and fiscal problems. With a Ph.D. in political science
and books such as Father and Child Reunion and Why Men Are The Way
They Are emanating from his own updated "quill" pen, Farrell puts a
focus on what he considers "the Party's propensity to drive dads out
of the home, drive men out of the Party, and drive businesses out of
state."



Farrell claims the Party has not updated itself from the "Women's
Crisis" of the 20th Century to what he feels is the "Men's Crisis" of
the 21st Century.



In his official statement to the California Democratic Party, Dr.
Farrell says:



"The Democratic Party is my Party. It is the Party of sensitivity and
inclusiveness. Yet in some ways we are being insensitive and
exclusionary. We care about families, but are disenfranchising dads
after divorce. We care about education, but are ignoring why our sons
are less likely to graduate from high school and college, and are
neglecting the recruitment of male teachers. We care about
inclusiveness, but support scholarships for women only. We care about
integrity, but ignore paternity fraud. We care about health, but are
ignoring the six times greater suicide rate of our sons and the six
year earlier death rate of our dads. We care about jobs, but tax the
job creators until they leave the state. We care about minorities,
but miss how our failures disproportionately hurt minorities. We call
ourselves progressive, but fail to update policies from the "women's
crisis" of the 20th Century to the "men's crisis" of the 21st
Century. We are driving dads out of the family, men out of the party,
and businesses out of the state. My "Ten Theses Toward a
'Reformation' of the Democratic Party" will restore congruity with
our values and save the state billions. See www.warrenfarrell.com.""
