Southern Parties of the Southwest Platform
SOVEREIGN LIFE Abortion is the murder of defenseless innocence in the womb. It is ultimately
an abomination to the One True God and Giver of Life. While we remain personally opposed to this despicable slaughter,
on a strictly political level we believe Roe v. Wade must be struck down, thereby wresting the abortion issue from the
jaws of the federal bureaucracy and returning all legal jurisdiction to the purview of the individual voters of the Southwest
FIRST AMENDMENT Safeguarding the spiritual and financial integrity
of our churches should number among our first priorities. We must unconditionally oppose government-sponsored interference
in the operation of all houses of worship, thus permitting the churches to adequately maintain their rightful position as
the moral and ethical cornerstones of our communities. Therefore we are opposed to any taxation of churches.
SECOND AMENDMENT True liberty must ultimately come with the
pressure applied to the trigger of a legally owned and responsibly operated firearm. If you doubt the validity of the aforementioned
statement, please take the time to review the blood-bath histories of Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany and Red China for confirmation.
An unarmed citizenry has always been, and will continue to be, the first prerequisite in the subjugation of a free people
by the cancerous spread of unchecked despotism.
MORALS
AND VALUES From the halls of Congress to the back alleys of our decaying cities and more than a few classrooms
in between, we have witnessed the pervasive damage inflicted on the body politic by the rampant amorality of those in lawful
authority as well as the ever-present danger of the criminal element arrayed against such persons. Our profit-driven, materially
obsessed and thus spiritually devoid pop culture has also made its own bleak contribution to the barren national landscape
by promoting the false gods of consumer enslavement, all to the detriment of our impressionable youth. We need to permanently
revisit the foundation of our Christian values and that of the Confederacy of 1861-1865.
SOUTHERN HERITAGE We proclaim now without apology or regret an invincible pride
in our blessed birthright as Confederates, one that we can only pray you treasure as well! Our roots
in the Southland run deep, as weam certain yours do as well, for we are of noble lineage and bloodline. Our people have been
the warriors and statesmen of august consequence, the intrepid pathfinders, poets and writers of the ageless and lyrical word!
Yes, we are proud to be loyal sons and daughters of Dixie! We support a strong stance on Confederate
heritage and will defend it with our lifes in needed.
EDUCATION Local control as exercised by informed and responsible
parents is the key to reclaiming the bountiful fruits of academic excellence once shared by the majority of our Founding Fathers.
Homeschooling must be an honorable first choice sanctioned by the proud parents of our best and brightest and not, as is currently
the case, a desperate measure of ignoble resort for those unfortunate enough to be chewed up and spit out by our sick public
school system. The federal government has no business in the education of our children therefore the Arizona and New
Mexico public school system should be maintained by the State and local governments answerable to the citizens of both
States. The federal government has no business in the education of the children of the Southwest.
STATE SOVEREIGNTY Appomatox witnessed not only the death of the Confederate vision for Southern
independence, but also and inevitably the ruthless sabotage by the federal government of the dignity, duties and prerogatives
of the individual states. The dangerous piecemeal process initiated at the direction of Hamilton and his Federalist cronies
following its own internal logic attained an unprincipled culmination in 1865 and in the guise of subsequent events collectively
labeled "Reconstruction". A necessary first step toward reclaiming State's Rights is the nullification of all redundant laws
while simultaneously pursuing an aggressive defense of our constitutional rights as embodied in the Bill of Rights We
support a State Sovereignty Amendment to the Constitution of both Arizona and New Mexico, including but not limited to
the State collecting all federal income taxes and holding them in escrow until the federal government does as it is instructed
by the people of Arizona and New Mexico
SCHOOL PRAYER We should as a
matter of course return to calling down the blessings of God upon our academic and sports-related activities, thereby instilling
in our youth proper respect and reverence for the Creator of all things. School prayer may thus be used to help turn back
the current atheistic liberal onslaught which has of late wreaked such terrible havoc upon the fundamental Christian heritage
of our forefathers, a priceless legacy under increasing and unrelenting attack by the politically correct-moral relativist
crowd.
