As he was leaving Independence Hall at the close of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, Dr. Franklin was approached by a lady who asked, "Well doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?" The elder statesmen's reply was foreboding: "A republic, if you can keep it." We are now at risk of losing that precious gift. Through analysis of history, political philosophy and a plethora of current issues, A Federalist Manifesto builds upon the work of others to detail how the federal government became dysfunctional, and what can be done to correct it. Written from the perspective of a veteran teacher, retired U.S. Navy Commander Brian Lasher addresses the issues in ways that are appropriate for both sophisticated reader and student alike, and it contains a gaming simulation for those who are interested in exploring news ways to present the Constitution in class. Rather than calling on a new generation to remake the world, this book lays out the case for why mending the republic with time-tested principles is a better way. For those concerned about the future of our country, there is a peaceful way out of the abyss. It is called a convention of states, and it is high time we did something about it.

Welcome to the year 2163 AD. It has been 144 years since the 2019 collapse of the government of the United States of America. In the aftermath of that collapse, several regional governments were organised across the North American continent. Now, in the seventh decade of the twenty-second century, the various North American governments are being invited to unite in a new coast-to-coast federation, known as The Federal Union of Independent North American States, (the FUINAS), under a constitution in many ways similar to the United States Constitution of 1789. These governments, however, in order to help keep the FUINAS from suffering a fate similar as that of the United States of America, want certain guarantees that weren’t in the original US Constitution written into the FUINAS Constitution. These guarantees, known as the “Fourteen Principles of Federalism,” an analysis of each of them, and the justification for their inclusion in the FUINAS Constitution, are the subject of The Federalist Manifesto of 2163 AD.

A call to arms for the growing movement of "Conservatarians"--members of the right who are fiscally conservative but socially liberal--and a fascinating look at conservatism's past and future. There is an underserved movement budding among conservatives, in which fiscal responsibility, constitutional obedience, and controlled government spending remain crucial tenets, but issues like gay marriage and drug control are approached with a libertarian bent. In The Conservatarian Manifesto, Charles C.W. Cooke engages with the data and the philosophy behind this movement, applauding conservatarianism as a force that can help Republicans mend the many ills that have plagued their party in recent years. Conservatarians are vexed by Republicans' failure to cut the size and scope of Washington D.C., but they are critical of some libertarians for their unacceptable positions on abortion, national defense, and immigration. They applaud conservatives' efforts to protect Second Amendment rights--efforts that have recently been wildly successful--but they see the War on Drugs as an unmitigated disaster that goes against everything conservatives ought to value. All movements run the risk of stagnation, and of losing touch with the principles and values that made them successful in the first place. In this book, Charles Cooke shows the way back to a better and more honest conservatism that champions limited government, reality-based policy, and favor for the smallest minority of all: the individual.

The Constitutionalist Manifesto By: Dud Crawford America is on the verge of another constitutional confrontation – just like in 1860-1861. The reasons for what are an accelerating dissolution of our Social Contract lie within the Constitution. Author Dud Crawford shows what the problems are and why he believes the U.S. Constitution is a failure. The question is: Do we do what we did the last time and have a civil war or do we create a new Constitution designed to handle the problems we see in America? Dud has written a new Constitution for all citizens to critique and make changes as needed.

Aside from the Constitution itself, there is no more important document in American politics and law than The Federalist-the series of essays written by Alexander Hamilton and James Madison to explain the proposed Constitution to the American people and persuade them to ratify it. Today, amid angry debate over what the Constitution means and what the framers' "original intent" was, The Federalist is more important than ever, offering the best insight into how the framers thought about the most troubling issues of American government and how the various clauses of the Constitution were meant to be understood. Michael Meyerson's Liberty's Blueprint provides a fascinating window into the fleeting, and ultimately doomed, friendship between Hamilton and Madison, as well as a much-needed introduction to understanding how the lessons of The Federalist are relevant for resolving contemporary constitutional issues from medical marijuana to the war on terrorism. This book shows that, when properly read, The Federalist is not a "conservative" manifesto but a document that rightfully belongs to all Americans across the political spectrum.
