DescriptionCARSON CITY -- A Las Vegas-based white separatist organization has filed paperwork with the secretary of state's office to create a White Peoples Party with the immediate goals of ending affirmative action and illegal immigration.

"We are facing a dilemma," said Michael O'Sullivan, chairman of the party. "All the large parties are openly courting the minority vote and completely ignoring the majority. People are fed up.

"Generally speaking, our platform will require our candidates to consider, in every policy decision we make, whether it is good for our people," he said.

The party is an offshoot of the Las Vegas unit of the white separatist group the National Vanguard, formerly known as the National Alliance. Members must collect 7,914 signatures by Aug. 11, 2006, to qualify as a party in Nevada. Paperwork beginning the process was filed Friday.

A search of the Internet turned up no evidence of any other state where a minor party with ballot access has an explicit white separatist platform.
