Many ask, “Why a Southern
Party …?”
As the Southern Party of Georgia struggles through the
trials and tribulations of building a grass roots effort, we
are asked many questions.
Many ask, "... why a Southern
Party of Georgia."
Since virtually all things Southern are considered
politically incorrect, many claim we would achieve an increase
in support if we dropped
Southern and chose some other name.
Since few deny that political correctness is running amok
in our State and country, this is a fair question and deserves
a response:
To begin, our long term goal is to Restore the
Principles upon which our country was founded. We are
losing these Founding Principles at an increasing rate and
many people share our concern. Our immediate priority is to
begin an effort to Restore these Principles. Our goal is not
Party over Principle, it is to re-establish our Founding
Principles as a viable subject in today’s political debate.
The politically correct, liberals (or whatever term you
choose) have selected Southern
Heritage as their primary target for their
concentrated attacks. Few would disagree with this fact; even
the politically correct openly admit it themselves.
The reason is very simple. Southern Heritage is one of
the foundations of American Liberty. The spirit of freedom and
liberty was first raised to a high pitch by Patrick Henry, a
Southern man. The principle author of the Declaration of
Independence of these united States was Thomas Jefferson,
a Southern man. The leader of the War of Secession from the
English Crown (13 of 17 English Colonies) was George
Washington, a Southern Man. The principle architect of the
Constitution was James Madison, a Southern man. This list
could go on and on with the major contributions of Southern
men to our Founding Principles; such as Randolph, Lee, Mason
and Pinckney.
Yes there were
other patriots, but the mark of Southern men is undeniable. It
was primarily Southern political
ideology
that resulted in the establishment of a Constitutional
Republic (united States) of Republics
(sovereign States)
instituting a just society.
The "Constitution of
these United States" is a contract between the People and
their elected representatives based on the recognition of
unalienable rights (derived from God not man), limited
authority, separation of powers, and trial by jury. These are
among the Founding Principles which are paramount to the
protection of Life, Liberty, and Property.
Through the
years,
ever since our still
celebrated
Secession from the
English Crown, the South has held these principles more dear,
and with stronger conviction than any other region of the
country.
It is for this
reason that Southern Heritage is the primary target of the
politically correct.
They know that the Southern way of life must be discredited
for them to be successful in re-defining these united States.
Anyone who claims to believe in our Founding Principles
should not only give this some serious thought, but do their
own research on the subject.
Now, back to the question of:
Why the name – Southern Party?
It is very
simple. To restore something that has been,
for the most part
lost, in this case our Founding Principles, you have to return
to the basics. You have to understand the foundation upon
which these Principles were built.
We do not believe that
it is possible to understand The Principles upon which our
country was founded, if you do not also understand Southern
Heritage.
Southern Heritage is an integral part of our history and
the foundation on which American Liberty was created.
You can not understand
American Liberty, the Constitutional Principles and Our
Founding Principles if you are so influenced by, or in some
cases afraid of, the power of the politically correct that you
join them in discrediting a major portion of that foundation.
The politically correct
understand this and work diligently to exterminate and
discredit Southern Heritage. We do not and will not bend to
political correctness. To whatever extent we receive your
support, we are committed to
working
diligently to stop political correctness run amok in
our country and States.
We have now completed four years of this effort. In some
areas we have accomplished more than we (and many others)
expected. The inverse is also true - in some areas we have
fallen short of our goals.
In summary: "Why A Southern Party?"
Because despite our small
size and politically incorrect name, there is now a voice for
those who believe in returning to our founding principles and
ending the reign of political correctness run amok in our
land.
We hope that you not only enjoy this
newspaper but find it both educational and interesting. Unlike
the glossy brochures provided by other political parties, we
offer a newspaper. Instead of a brochure that says very little
we offer you 16 pages of information on our views on issues of
today. If you agree – we hope that you will consider joining
us in working to restore Our Founding Principles.
