“If a nation expects to be ignorant - and free
- in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” – Thomas Jefferson
BasicsProject.org produces a series of expanding
original educational publications on what we feel are the three most critical issues
facing our country today: radical Islam, the American Fifth Column and our
nation's delinquency in understanding the principles and ideology that led
our Framers and Founders to create the Charters of Freedom. Each series
provides an examination of the basic elements of each subject. The goal of
these series is to create a motivation within our citizenry to seek out
additional information on each issue so that we can engage our elected
officials from an informed and intellectual vantage point. By educating
ourselves on the "basics," we can properly satisfy our civic responsibility
while providing the proper oversight of our government officials.
Keeping a
Republic: An Argument for Sovereignty
As
the United States faces the complex issues of being a global
community nation state, it is important that we recognize
the importance of maintaining and preserving our national
sovereignty.
In Keeping a Republic: An Argument for Sovereignty,
author Nancy Salvato, president of BasicsProject.org and
career educator, examines the need to preserve our national
sovereignty in the face of an advancing globalism.
"Nancy Salvato’s latest book Keeping a Republic: An
Argument for Sovereignty is a very enlightening document
that each and every citizen of America, all America lovers
and haters should read. The book starts with the origin of
the US Constitution and describes rigorously what the role
of government is in the American Republic, explaining why it
should be and remain limited. This book is a hymn to
America’s very essence and success...Page after page,
chapter after chapter, Mrs. Salvato indefatigably takes the
reader through the history of classical philosophy, Natural
Law and globalization; explaining why American sovereignty,
freedoms and achievements are an immense treasure to protect
at all costs and against all odds. This short but great book
is a must in every educated reader’s library."
-- Jean-Bernard Moreau,
Former Liaison Officer,
Belgium's Wallonia Region,
European Commission
The events of September 11, 2001 changed our
nation, and the world, forever. For our nation, these attacks signaled the
realization of the quintessential struggle for this generation. A conflict
not between nations whose borders are delineated on a map or between groups
of nations diametrically opposed in their political philosophies, but a
conflict of ideologies transcending recognized borders. Understanding the
Threat of Radical Islam provides a cursory examination of violent
Islamism and how this radical ideology threatens Western Civilization;
perfect as an introduction to the issue or for home schooling
"You must read ‘Understanding the Threat of Radical Islam’ by Frank
Salvato. It is, far and away, one of the most important publications on the
subject of militant Islam to appear in print. The work is succinct,
comprehensive, and extremely well-written. Mr. Salvato is a true American
patriot with a message that must be heard before it is too late for all of
us.”
-- Dr. Paul L. Williams, PhD Author, Osama’s Revenge, The Day of Islam
and The
Al Qaeda Connection

With roots emanating from the ideology of the
Marxist/Leninist Era, the American Fifth Column presents a menace from
within, a threat to the longevity of our uniquely American way of life.
These roots, nurtured and further developed during the counter-culture
revolution of the of the 1960s and 1970s and now taught in classrooms across
America as “tolerance” have evolved into a unique yet visionless ideology,
which holds that our most basic constitutional tenets are the central cause
for many of the social ills here in the United States and around the world.
