The Southern Manifesto was signed on a large mahogany conference table in Sen. [[John Stennis]]' office which Stennis used as his desk and referred to as "the flagship of the [[Confederacy]]." The table was used by segregationist and co-signer of the Southern Manifesto, Sen. [[Richard Russell]], before his retirement.  When Stennis retired in 1988, Biden took over Stennis' office, including the conference table.  When Biden was elected vice-president in 2008, Biden had the conference table moved into the vice-president's residence.
