     Should it contain dark khaki as one of its colors?

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

     Should it contain dark khaki as one of its colors?

No. Why? I'm thinking more along the lines of the South Carolina flag with the Palmetto tree and the crescent moon.

that sounds nice.

     I agree. Maybe we should move the regional capital to Charleston.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

I'll add those initiatives to the October ballot. I think we need to move the capitol to Charleston as well. Is Memphis our current one? If so, we definitely need to move to the coast.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Yep, it's Memphis.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Dirty South Flag Act  of 2008

1. Effective immediately following the passage of this law by vote of the region's citizens, the flag of the Dirty South will change from the current uninspiring generic flag to a design consisting on a navy background with the Palmetto tree and crescent moon in the center.


Dirty South Capitol Relocation Act

1. Effective immediately following the passage of this law by the votes of the region's citizens, the capitol city of the Dirty South will be relocated from Memphis, Tennessee to Charleston, South Carolina.


I'll add these for the vote. I think it would be a good move long term for the region and continue to set us apart from the others. Our current image really doesn't match what we're doing here. I want us to be on top of everything.

[DownWithTheLeft]

I support the measure both personally and the party supports them as well.  The convention will occur soon, most likely next week with a location to pick at a later date.  18 members strong and growing.  We also would like to extend an invitation for Gov. Jesus to address our convention to accept our nomination if he so chooses.

[Хahar 🤔]

At least change it slightly from the flag of SC.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

At least change it slightly from the flag of SC.

We can discuss that at the convention and make changes. I think the Palmetto tree and crescent moon need to be the centerpiece. The background color is up for debate if we so chose.

Why is regional government stuff being conducted in the RPP thread?

Its not really regional government business, we are discussing where the party stands on regional issues.  We are the major party in the region and care deeply about the Dirty South

Honestly, I just didn't know where else to mention this. I didn't think that it warranted a new thread.

Historically we've always had initiative proposal threads each month to propose/debate initiatives like those two up there. I'd like a chance to have my say without interrupting your party in here.

Please feel free to interrupt this thread at anytime as Xahar made himself at home here a long time ago

Haha, alright. If weve got some Dirty South business in here I guess I'll just have to make myself home in here.

But about the proposals above. Personally, I'd prefer not to move the capital to Charleston. In the unfortunate event of a hurricane the regional government would be essentially decapitated. Do agree to a new flag though.

The Hurricane issue has also been on my mind, I truly like Memphis as the capitol. It's been the capitol for quite some time, is a lovely city and it rich in history and culture. Memphis is in the middle of the region and that's where it needs to be in case of natural disaster.

[Bacon King]

I'd also like to point out that the Southeast has a billion dollar capitol complex in Memphis.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Well, I'm a coastal guy myself, so I support moving the capitol to the coast. What does our budget look like, anyway? I just feel like this region has gone from being a joke to one of the most active warrants a change in the capital. Charleston has much more culture and heritage as compared to Memphis, my dear Lt. Governor!


But we can debate it.

Bacon, I can start a new thread if you wish so we can debate this .. that way more members will participate.

Go for it. I'll save my additional comments until the new thread is up.

Yeah, I went ahead and made one before you even responded. That way all our citizens will be able to input their ideas.

For any party members who weren't fully committed to Jesus (if there are any of you anymore), please take note that Moderate has spit on the RPP by appointing staunch federalist, treasonist, and Dirty South deserter Hashemite to represent our great nation to the rest of the world.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Bgwah has my vote now. Hashimite called the government of the Dirty South incompetent, Nazi's, and dictators before leaving the region only to demand reentry during election season. To see him rewarded for that behavior by getting appointed to the President's cabinet makes me question President Moderate's judgement. I don't know if he as unaware or what, but he should've researched this sooner.

No, he knows.  Read the thread, he just called an idiot for questioning his decision
