These and hundreds more disturbing questions about America's carefully shaded past, confused present, and dubious destiny are addressed in this book.

BEYOND OUR CONSENT is a psycho-political study of American history that reveals how and why the "land of the free" has been gradually but steadily guided away from its original founders' noble intent.

These founders deliberately established a new nation in a historically unprecedented action, one that provided true independence to all its mutually aspiring citizens. From the outset, however, the forces of greed and power-lust have surreptitiously and successfully undermined this noble vision. Even now, this nation, once believed to be the home of "the free and the brave", is being reduced to a state of denial , insecurity, and cowering fear of its own bloated, blusteringly arrogant government.

BEYOND OUR CONSENT goes for the throat of America's present failure. It describes the work-the hard work-that must be done in order that Americans can regain the stature their forefathers envisaged for them. This book, like those to follow, addresses itself to readers who are prepared and willing to do that work.

This is the first work in a series called THE ARCADIAN PRIMER , a unique research effort directed toward exposing the truth behind many dark rumors of conspiracy that plague the interplay between U.S. affairs and world events. Readers will discover that the complacency of their daily lives has become immersed in previously unsuspected influences-influences that are quietly modifying traditional American attitudes and behavior to fit an alien agenda, an agenda that leads to helplessness and enslavement.

Traditional political, economic, media, educational, and religious institutions have become infiltrated at the highest levels by "agents" whose agendas are inimical to the interests of trusting American citizens. BEYOND OUR CONSENT examines in penetrating depth the insidious methods these agents employ and the corrosively destructive effects they are having upon a free society.

The "New World Order ", generally conceived as an American triumph, carries within it the seeds of a global totalitarian government controlled by an unimaginably wealthy " Power Elite ". Because most Americans have grown numb to political rhetoric, they may perceive this discussion of the " Power Elite " as yet another exercise in irrelevant catch phrases. Such a response, however, only demonstrates the gradual and intentional erosion of their own capacities for response, their own resistance to a very real threat of enslavement.

The average American citizen has not yet learned that the daily diet of inane stimulation-the exposure to criminal violence, licentious sex, and mindless or bizarre amusement-is in fact a weapon of psychological warfare. The present cultural environment attacks and numbs the senses without leaving any visible trace of its debilitating causes. This tool of war undermines the individual moral sense; ultimately, it will destroy the fabric of society.

The chapters of this book thread through a startling maze of facts, events, and experiences, revealing a pattern of silent conquest, a pattern that concerned readers will recognize as familiar in their own lives and dominant in the unfolding history of our time.

Wherever there is a problem, though, there is also a solution. Americans need look no further than to them selves for the key to the success or failure of liberty. They alone have the option to preserve liberty or to lose it. The power of the possibilities discussed in these pages depends on the American people-the quality of their collective hearts and the determination of their national will.

This book is not easy to read. It was not meant to be. Yet like those to follow, it also offers hope. It reveals the steps by which Americans wandered from the path of duty and shows the means by which Americans may yet retrace their steps, should they dare to make the effort.

Unless they do, history will prove the truth of Edmund Burke's warning:

"All that is needed for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."

"It's all about US!"

This book is a comprehensive biography of Nelson Mandela that is enriched by the context of the South African struggle that the author brings into the narrative. Nelson Mandela is immersed in the entire liberationist strife from 1652 to 2000 as it took place in South Africa within the globa waves that impcted the South African scenes with reactionary trends as well as emancipatory influences.

Unlike most books on Nelson Mandela, this book was written by a South African Black, first in Zulu and then translated to five South African languages, including English. As the author was a participant in the struggle, this book captures much of the stories as they were experienced, told and retold by the South Africans, especially those de-voiced South African Blacks who dared not write or speak openly about the struggle. This book is, therefore largely a Black person's view point, a view point that is informed by scholarship, distance from the South Africa and decades of living in South Africa under apartheid.

This 180 page book is for those people who endeavor to run the United States, those who help them, as well as students of government and management.

There are suggestions and recommendations on different aspects of preparing to serve, as well as what any person needs to learn and do in order to be successful in Washington. In addition, separate chapters are devoted to significant players in the National Capitol, including the Press, the White House, Congress, Career Civil Servants, Military and the Industry.

Leadership to Save Canada tells why Paul Martin is ill-equipped to become Prime Minister of Canada in light of his record as a Chrétien cabinet minister and evidence now emerging that he lacks appropriate strategic policy priorities. This book further contends that the government of Canada and its institutions, as now constituted, are increasingly dysfunctional and unable to provide the leadership we require to respond to twenty-first century change. Our government system has failed and the myopic and corrupt partisanship now practiced will diminish future Canadian quality of life. In the modern security and health-threat environment, government incompetence will be a threat to life itself.

Canada's faltering economic productivity and the lack of government focus on productivity as a strategic imperative is portrayed as being the key failure in achieving the levels of economic success required to restore our health care, education, military forces and other areas to levels of satisfactory performance. The recommendations which have been put forward by politicians and political scientists for an elected Senate and improved representativeness in the House of Commons are portrayed as changes which should have been achieved a century ago and are completely inadequate by themselves as a response to twenty first century change.

The challenge of twenty first century change is extensively described in the book. The book recommends a comprehensive program of institutional reform to change the Canadian Senate to a Senior Leadership Council. This Council will have the power to dismiss senior government officials including the Prime Minister. The Council will also be available to give mature and competent advice to all government departments and agencies, whether they be federal, provincial or municipal.

Paul Martin has embraced the need to change the way the Canadian federal government does things, but until he demonstrates an improved capability to seize and implement effective strategic priorities to get Canada producing up to its capability, his ability to achieve useful change will be very limited because of lack of resources. Under these conditions, Canada's ability to achieve reasonable objectives under Martin will be only marginally better than the completely unsatisfactory results realized under Chrétien.

Unfortunately, it seems likely that more than a few such people have inserted themselves into positions of power. Worse, they have assisted others of their kind into supporting positions of power, so that it seems very hard to root them out.

It's a simple book; one that I hope doesn't take you too long to read. YouÕve read enough already to form some idea of whether you might agree with this conclusion. If not, skip it. Do something that seems more interesting to you. But if you think there might be something to this, read on. I will briefly discuss some events, and portions of the US government, that I think illustrate the likelihood of what I described in paragraphs one and two above being true.

Chapter Two outlines a proposed solution for this dilemma facing all of us: How can we keep our government efficient, inexpensive and honest? Can anything be done about it? I take the position that the answer to that question is yes."

These and hundreds more disturbing questions about America's carefully shaded past, confused present, and dubious destiny are addressed in this book.

It matters only that Dots lays out the true picture in all possible detail to effectively counter the many lies and spin to steal and deceive as has happened. Only now are some of the masses of misled Republicans coming round to realize that their party has been hijacked and no longer is what is might once have been. It claims to be the one for conservatism, of restricting Govt. growth and intrusion of public and private property and enterprising progress, or building and maintaining sound reserves and financial stability, of walking silently and powerfully and carrying a big stick. These and many more are the basic desires and fundamental wishes of all of us from both democratic and republican sides. To say anything else is to defy logic and sound reason. But look what this congress and this king of partisan activity has brought us to. We must examine the record and be honest on both sides, all sides, and connect the Dots of controversial issues that are obvious for us to see so we can together remove the obstacles to the great growth potential that has been sometimes part of our past. We, together, must join toward common ends and put aside those conditions that divide and belittle. This must be done now, so that the nation that claims to be of, by and for the people becomes again "of", "by" and "for" the all, not just half or any selective part of the people, but, all the people. To do this, we must radically change entrenched methods immediately. We must choose the best person rather than the party and we must return true free speech to those persons by removing it from "the most money". We have seen what happens when we allow those with limited brains, wrong motive and more money use this (In the name of free speech) to elevate a lower than idiot to an exalted power position over all. Such power is a cancer and corrupts toward death from the beginning. The only possible good thing that might come from this horrible congress and "W" administration could be this new awareness leading to change.

First, the money. Remember when Gingrich and Clinton promised to act together to bring campaign finance reform and nothing happened? Many have since made token effort with much to much compromise. We must take a lesson from the past. The Greek early attempts had it right with the idea of "Public Service" requiring equal but substantial maintenance and housing for their senate or equivalent. No opportunity for corruption or favored association. With a level plating field and an equal presentation of capabilities and no requirements to use precious time campaigning and raising money, real issues that serve the real needs of all can be served and much accomplished. The individual record of achievement will be the criteria by which the uncontaminated competition is judged by the whole of a well-educated and unconned voter. We much return service and public together to act of "Public service" by removing the money motive altogether. We must do this right now by forced public demand and referendum, both by current representation. If any resist they are not worthy or secure in their service position, and should be on term probation. Their next election should be conditioned under the new equal campaigning condition. I wonder how many would now be in office even once had we had such unpaid for practice in place before? Now, without delay, we must connect the Dots and reclaim our vote.

How many of us have voted of late? Do you know for sure that your vote was counted and that it was for the one you voted for? The way it is now, none of us can be completely sure.

This is but the first necessary change in the required steps. I will continue to suggest following steps that will be the natural result of this right action. It will proceed to result in a vastly changed government of the people with a changed congress able to truly serve the people. Do you know that, the ratings by the people of both the president and this, his congress is at the lowest in our history. We are the only ones, all of us, responsible for and capable of change. We must surrender to this truth and unite for change. Our lives and our children's lives, the lives of the whole world depend on us...Now.

With this necessary return of a new congress and a healthy balance against protectionism that has permitted unchecked criminal activity bordering on local terrorism, we can proceed with correction, impeachment of all and anyone whose guilt, while obvious to many, has been concealed or condoned by the party politic loyalty partnership. The honest person is at all times threatened and intimidated under this administration. Those guilty of crimes against society both foreign and domestic must be excised their position of power and made to pay for their conduct. Their lies cannot stand. Their examples must be programmed so as not to be repeated. We can have a new and better tomorrow for all with better leadership right now.

We must look at and connect the Dots to see the pattern of destruction.

Next... The New Democracy.

This book is a stimulus to unlock the good in people. It starts with the Jamaican people. The technological revolution is upon us and Jamaica has always been a powerhouse in producing great scholars and athletes; however, the country has been poorly organized for success. This book will take us through the path of getting Jamaica organized by restarting the country with a new constitution and outlines a plausible path towards organizing the country then moving it to first-world status. This will be a standard for other countries to adopt. Wouldn't you like to be a part of this?

This book also introduces the traits of the 50 people needed to institute this system and their approach in restoring and advancing the society based on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. After implementing the system, the world will witness a modern-day success in democracy. You will witness the transformation of politics to a decent service. The 50 honest people will emerge to lead the cause-you could be one of them, irrespective of your nationality. Be a part of something big. A must read for everyone!
