" The Democratic Party instituted policies and pandering to the radical Women's Movement are responsible for at least 1 million non-felons- Divorced American Men commonly known as Fathers-- who are today being denied the right to VOTE...."

They're often also denied the fundamental Second Amendment Right to Keep and Bear Arms. And the NRA National Reasonable-regulation Asses think that's OK.
See http://www.nrawol.com links to keepandbeararms.com archive of NRA loving-gun control abuses that are as evil as Sarah Brady's and less honest.
Good people should be armed where they will. They should be armed with wits, at least, or more effectively with guns.
In past elections American Men voted more for the GOP than the Demonrats.
They know this
I doubt that there are a million men in jail for failure to pay child support.
I read a couple of years ago it was @ 250,000 for back support.
Here's more information from Tennessee, but his involves felons:
"Felons with unpaid child support can't vote"

Sorry, but you did not post enough of an excerpt for this to make any sense at all. Fathers being denied the vote how?
Damn ! They now want you to register to read article.
Why the change all of the sudden ???
So I'm not sure I understand your article. You're saying that you support deadbeat fathers who fail to support their kids and you think they should be given an expanded political voice?
I also was hitherto unaware that failure to support your kids is a "conservative" value.
Just did a little Google research on it. Apparently the number is not known with any degree of certainty. The anti-child support website said that the actual number is a "secret" but it's around 25-50% of all men in county jails.
I suspect that it's no where near a million. Even 250,000 seems high, but that might at least be plausible. The article makes it sound like this is intended to keep GOPers from voting.
I suspect that the overwhelming number of deadbeat fathers are Democrats.
Yeah. I suspect that the overwhelming number of deadbeat dads are Democrats. Probably split along racial lines, too.
There are a billion (with a b) men in secret jails for not paying child support!
Because they are in jail for failure to pay child support.
Personally, I can't imagine that this is somehow a hindrence to Republicans, though.
CIA jails, I bet, too.
They live in undeground cities under the ocean floor where they are pressed into forced labor making plush toys like tickle me elmo!
p.s.
twice a year their ex-wives are allowed into the jails where they poke the men with pointy sticks!
It's easy to fall behind child support when they add high interest rates, AFDC (Welfare) repayment with interest too, plus filing fees, lawyers (Her & yours) costs, medical bills,etc..etc...all under the umbrella of child support title.
To fall behind in a flash, all that needs to happen is for fathers to get sick, disable, or get layed-off for a couple of weeks, then before you know it. You are a felon.
In Kansas it's $500.00 last I heard
