Ok, so we have the same acronym as the Sam Spade Party Tongue

We share almost the same views as the United Antifederalist League, but we set up shop solely in the Southeast.  Here are our goals:

1.) Electing officials who support rights of region
2.) Electing officials who support the Independence of the Dirty South

What do you win? This is a damn computer simulation. We can just set up a loyal Southeastern government.

And what constitutional authority would the Atlasian government have to do that? Unless unionists currently in the Southeast join Columbia and Columbia subsequently ratifies the Atlasian constitution. In that case, we will have succeeed in ridding those willing to stay in the Dirty South of Atlasian intervention. We will be able to make our own laws just like the Atlasian government makes their laws.

Since secession is illegal, the Southeastern government becomes illegal the moment it approves secession. Power then passes normally to John Dibble.
I think you really missed the ball where Section 2 is merely to try for appeasement, we honestly don't care if we are part of Atlasia at all.

The UAC disavows all ties with the new secessionist party and would like to remind said party that the UAC favors legal, multilateral dissolution of the federal government, not unilateral secession.
I hope that means a vote against the end of regional senators from your region

After further consideration, we will be dropping secession from both the name and party platform.  We will simply be pushing for regional rights

I personally like Regional Protection Party because I regret never joining the Ron Paul Party.  I could also go for something a bit more out there, perhaps Regions Ending Get Insane Crazy Idiots Dumbasses Excited (REGICIDE) Smiley

Once a few more members join we will elect a chair, vice-chair and vote on the following platform planks:

1.) The Regional Protection Party supports the continuation of regional senate elections
2.) The Regional Protection Party opposes efforts to expand the federal government
3.) The Regional Protection Party supports the return of a GM
4.) The Regional Protection Party supports term limits on Supreme Court justices

It's not for sure, just throwing things on the ballot to see what people think.  The AUB voted on almost indentical planks

As PiT stated, we confer quite regularly through PMs.  BTW, I offered PiT the chairmanship but he said he wanted to yield it to me because he felt he better fit for recruiting and since I had been an Atlasian much longer I would be a better fit for the chair.  Personally, I don't think it matters much, everything action we take I plan on calling a vote.  So I guess you could say my main responsibility as chair for right is setting up voting booths

We have 8 members (SPC still registered as SSP, but know where he is).  At 10 I motion for a convention and votes.

Other than the protection of regional voting rights, does this party have any other agenda?  I am strongly leaning to the former in any event. The case for doing something else has not been made yet. The burden of proof is on the change agents.
Well, we are billing ourselves as the party for conservatives, although we haven't adopted a platform to the like.  Were basically like the AUB but with a slightly right-wing tilt.  Basically we want to drastically limit any power the federal government has, even with issues that aren't Atlasia exclusive

The game might get dull, if the Senate has nothing to do.  Smiley
Well, there are still plenty of bills to be passed to undue federal things.  For example, my last bill on legalizing heroin was a bill about taking power away from the federal government and returning it to the regions.  I wouldn't say anything but senate activity could come from this.

I should like to join your new party, if the party would be willing to accept me.
We are more than willing to accept and encourage to vote for our endorsed slate of candidates

Which you have already done Smiley

Alright, I was going to hold off on voting, but I thought I should do it since the RPP preferences are well-known at this point anyway:

[ 1 ] Fmr. Sen. DWTL
[ 2 ] SDP Chairman Xahar
[ 3 ] Judge HappyWarrior
[ 4 ] Lt. Gov. Benconstine
[ 5 ] Sen. ColinWixted
[ 6 ] Sen. AndrewCT
[ 7 ] Fmr. Gov. Sensei
[ 8 ] Fmr. Sen. Jas
[ 9 ] WRITE-IN: Gov. AHDuke99
[ 10 ]WRITE-IN: Lt. Gov. SouthParkConservative
[ 11 ] WRITE-IN: RPP Vice-Chair PiT
[ 12 ] Sen. CultureKing

I was going to put CultureKing in before I started writing people in, but I didn't feel like renumbering Tongue  Party members can feel free to do so

The last three are not meant as actual votes so don't feel obligated to include them, I was just paying homage to those who have helped get this party off the ground

Wht Al isn't on your ballot?
I could go on a huge list, but I could with
1.) Accusing my of loving the Holocaust
2.) Overreacting to a joke about a Jewish conspriacy
3.) He repeated calling of the RPP a party of trolls

And on and on
