The Politics of South Park
| South Park has made it's mark on the
American political landscape. The analysts are already going crazy
explaining it's popularity. The following are among the best articles and
information on South Park available. Enjoy!
If you haven’t yet, I implore you to watch

![]() South Park got its start in 1991 when Trey Parker and Matt Stone, then film students at the University of Colorado, created an animated short called Jesus vs Frosty (also known as The Spirit of Christmas).
