The Southern Party was a minor political party in the United States that operated exclusively in the South. The party supported states' rights and increased Southern cultural and regionalist activism. The Party was formed by the League of the South in 1999 and experienced moderate success following the framing of the Asheville Declaration, which was touted by the Party as a second Declaration of Independence. Despite its initial success, the Southern Party was disbanded in 2003 following internal factionalism; all that exists of the Southern Party today are the remnants of its state chapters in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Mississippi. HistoryThe merits of a political party representing the regional interests of the Southern United States and border states were first discussed in December 1998 by James Lancaster, George Kalas (both of whom have since renounced and left the Southern movement) and Michael Hill at a League of the South conference held in Monroe, Louisiana. The League authorized the formation of a Southern Party Exploratory Committee (SPEC), which was formally organized at a later meeting in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, which was held in January 1999. During this meeting Kalas was elected to chair the committee. The Southern Party achieved its first electoral victory on August 22, 2000 when party member Wayne Willingham was elected to the nonpartisan office of Mayor of West Point, Alabama.

Answered by cathygirl32 - Thu Feb 16 15:19:33 2006 Where can I find party dresses for girls under 12 years old in Southern CA? Q. We're invited to a evening wedding and I've been to Nordstrom, Macy's, and other places but they don't have much to choose from. I'd like my daughters to try them on before buying them to make sure they fit okay that's why I'd rather not buy them online. If anyone knows of a good place to shop for pretty and not "too" expensive dresses please let me know.
