Our late friend and mentor Sam Blumenfeld authored over 12 books but his most important in my opinion, was his Alpha-Phonics. Since the creation of the Sam Blumenfeld Archives, thousands of people around the world but mainly in the United States have downloaded this book. When visiting the archives and clicking onto the link to Alpha-Phonics, this letter comes up:
” Welcome to the “Alpha-Phonics workbook by Samuel L. Blumenfeld. This book has been used by thousands of parents who have taught their children to be excellent readers, which includes my children. It is arranged in 128 easy to follow lessons. Sam rightfully pointed out that pictures of puppets popping out of trash cans are not needed to teach children how to read. This book may also be used for adults who have been taught the whole word or look-say method and therefore are functionally illiterate.

The Daily Mail and other media outlets recently reported that we have experienced the 2nd warmest July in history, and we should expect a warmer than usual fall. But our friend Tony Heller from Real Climate Science https://realclimatescience.com/#gsc.tab=0 exposes the story in this short video “Second Fakest July On Record”:
This list I have compiled isn’t in any particular order, except the last book, and are just a handful of many books that may reenforce, challenge and/or change the readers’ worldview. All of them are either in print and/or available on Amazon except one which have been banned by Amazon but available from its publisher.
Richard Nixon The Man Behind the Mask
As a young junior high school conservative, I defended Richard Nixon against my liberal classmates. At the age of twenty-nine, a friend loaned me Nixon: The Man Behind the Mask by Gary Allen. Allen points out that Nixon was not a conservative to say the least. Under the Nixon Administration, we got the unconstitutional Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) which has wreaked havoc on American manufacturing. He opened up Communist China which eventually led, not only to diplomatic recognition, but to Communist China’s global dominance. Nixon allowed technological transfers to the Soviet Union making it possible for the Soviets make nuclear missiles with multiple warheads. After reading the book, I stopped defending Nixon. This book opened my eyes to the influence and power of what is now known as the Deep State.

The Best Enemy Money Can Buy:
This book, written by Professor Anthony Sutton of the Hoover Institute, documents how elements in our U.S. government have been funding, aiding, and abetting The Soviet Union even before the Bolshevik Revolution. We are still aiding and abetting our enemies. Sutton wrote a series of books that I also recommend including Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler and Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution.

Memoirs by David Rockefeller
Published in 2002, Memoirs, is an autobiography of David Rockefeller whom I consider one of evilest Americans that lived in the last 100 years. (Armand Hammer, Henry Kissinger, and Zbigniew Brzezinski are three more.) Why do I draw that conclusion? In David’s own words from his biography:
“For more than a century, ideological extremists, at either end of the political spectrum, have seized upon well-publicized incidents, such as my encounter with Castro, to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal, working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists,’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure – one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.
“We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years……It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supernational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto determination practiced in past centuries.”
Rockefeller makes an admission of treason, but the Department of Justice wasn’t interested in prosecuting him.

The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin
I had the honor of helping to sponsor a speaking tour of the author back in the mid-1990s. This powerful and well documented book exposes how the Federal Reserve Bank was created in complete secrecy. It explains how the Fed creates money out of thin air, how it manipulate the economy, how it is an instrument of war, and that the Fed is not an arm of the U.S. government but a cartel between bankers-not your local bank, however- and the government.

The Health Hazards of Homosexuality
This book, like most books that present factual info on this subject, have been banned from Amazon. Most Americans have been bullied into silence lest they be accused of being called some type of “phobe” with new phobias being minted on a regular basis. We are not supposed to bring up facts like those who engage in unsafe sexual practices generally have shorter lifespans that those who don’t. Indeed, we are told by governments at all levels that we must celebrate these lifestyles and governments are spending millions of dollars doing just that. Thankfully, those that lead this movement have been experiencing some pushback. A book like this will help those pushing back with much needed information. The book is available from Mass Resistance: massresistance.org

Death by Government by R.J. Rummel
This book, authored by a liberal professor from the University of Hawaii, demonstrates the deadliness of government. Professor Rummel proves that more people have been murdered by totalitarian governments in the 20th century in peacetime than in all of the wars of the 20th Century. Professor Rummel coined the word “democide.”

Tornado In a Junkyard
This book, authored by a friend and a former atheist, and written in layman’s terms, refutes evolution, one the most destructive ideas that mankind has faced leading to the loss of faith in God. While Mr. Perloff doesn’t claim that all evolutionists are racist, he shows the readers its racist roots. Perloff also points out that evolution influenced Joe Stalin leading him to reject Christianity and embrace communism.

Christianity and the Constitution The Faith of Our Founding Fathers
Colonel John Eidsmoe, a friend and Constitutional attorney, refutes the argument that the framers of the U.S Constitution were deists. He makes the case that John Calvin was one of the founders of the United States. Calvin, of course, lived long before the U.S. but his Biblical concept of innate depravity led to the founders to have a separation of powers. Colonel Eidsmoe contents that the U.S. Constitution could only have been written by those with a Christian worldview. John Adams affirms Colonel Eidsmoe when he said the U.S. Constitution is for a “moral and religious” people.

Black Rednecks and White Liberals
This book is an antidote for self-loathing whites who believe that our nation’s founders were all white supremacist who invented slavery. Professor Thomas Sowell, now a nonagenarian, writes that slavery has been around since recorded history and that it wasn’t until close to the end of slavery was racism used to justify it. He also explains how Muslins introduced slavery to Black Africa and Great Britian, and the United States had a leading role in ending slavery. I also recommend his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhSaV999ZAA

Debunking Howard Zinn Exposing the Fake History That Turned a Generation against America
Mary Grabar, a Camp Constitution instructor, exposes the blatant anti-Americanism promoted by Howard Zinn. Zinn’s book, Peoples History of the US. has been used in our nation’s government schools to promote a hatred of our nation and its history. Zinn has a particular hatred of Christopher Columbus Mary sets the record straight on the great explorer.

The U.S. Constitution
While not a book, it is something that most elected officials, especially those at the federal level, don’t want you to read this because it will show that they, while claiming to uphold it, have been spending most their political careers, violating it. Don’t believe me? Just get on a mailing list of any of our federal elected officials. Almost everything they brag about in their E-mails is blatantly unconstitutional, but they know that the vast majority of the voters know nothing about the proper role of members of Congress. (For a free pocket copy of the U.S. Constitution, E-mail me at campconstitution1@gmai.com)

The Bible
I put this book, which I believe is the Inspired Word of God, last because it is the most important. For centuries, enemies of God have done their utmost to keep it from you. There are at least 52 countries-Muslim and Communist-where the Bible is illegal. While it is still legal in Western Europe, and Canada, one can go to jail for proclaiming some of the teaching of the Bible. I will let some of our nation’s founders make the case for the Bible:
“The Bible contains the most profound philosophy, the most perfect morality, and the most refined policy that ever was conceived upon earth.” John Adams
“[The Bible] is of all books in the world that which contributes most to make men good, wise, and happy.” John Quincy Adams
“Were you to ask me to recommend the most valuable book in the world, I should fix on the Bible as the most instructive, both to the wise and ignorant.”” Elias Boudinot, President of the Continental Congress, and Director of the U.S. Mint
“Let us therefore persevere steadfastly in distributing the Scriptures far and near, and without note or comment. We are assured that they ‘are profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness (2 Tim. 3:16).’” John Jay
“The Bible contains more truths than any other book in the world.” Benjamin Rush
I am offering free copies of the Bible until my supply runs out. Use the same E-mail listed above if you would like one.

We are sad to report the passing of our dear friend and Camp Constitution’s co-founder and manager, Charlie Everett. I knew Charlie since 1990, when we spent a few days training me for my new job as field rep for the John Birch Society. In December of 2008, when I got word that its summer camp program-then named Freedom Generation-was being canceled, Charlie was the first person I called to see if he would be on board with our own camp program. He immediately answered in the affirmative, and his first job was to contact a local lawyer friend to get some legal advice.
Among his duties as camp manager-a volunteer position- Charlie would handle and process all of the camp applications, the bank transactions, insurance for camp events, and prepare the annual report for the State of New Hampshire.
Our prayers go out to his wife Linda, his three daughters, and his grandchildren.

This is a news release from New Tolerance Campaign which exposes left-wing hate groups and counters The Southern Poverty Law (SPLC) which has Camp Constitution on its hate map. They have us listed as “antigovernment” and based in Charlotte, North Carolina. https://www.splcenter.org/hate-map?state=NC We tried to let them know that we are New Hampshire based a few months ago but they didn’t make the correction.
I am sure that the map below will be filled with many more left-wing hate groups.
“We are committed to upholding true tolerance and providing a resource that ensures all hate in the United States is addressed, regardless of political affiliation.”
Washington, DC — The New Tolerance Campaign (@New_Tolerance) today announced the launch of its groundbreaking “Hate Map,” a comprehensive resource documenting instances of political violence perpetrated by leftist organizations across the United States.
This interactive map aims to fill the gaps left by traditional civil rights organizations, such as the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), which have largely overlooked or ignored such acts.
Click here to view the NTC Hate Map.
Watch the launch video below:
The NTC Hate Map is designed to be a vital tool for journalists, researchers, and news organizations seeking to understand and report on the full spectrum of political violence in the country. Unlike other resources that selectively highlight certain types of intolerance, NTC’s map provides an unbiased, detailed account of incidents, ensuring a more balanced and thorough perspective.
“For too long, groups like the SPLC have failed to address the violence and intolerance stemming from the far-left,” said Gregory T. Angelo, President of New Tolerance Campaign. “Our Hate Map is a critical step towards exposing and documenting leftist hate and violence. We are committed to upholding true tolerance and providing a resource that ensures all hate in the United States is addressed, regardless of their political affiliation.”
The map includes detailed profiles of numerous leftist groups known for their violent activities, such as ANTIFA chapters nationwide, Black Lives Matter affiliates, and various radical organizations. It features incidents ranging from vandalism and physical assaults to threats and intimidation, providing a comprehensive view of the political violence landscape.
Key features of the NTC Hate Map include:
“Traditional civil rights groups have been selective in their condemnation of hate and intolerance, often turning a blind eye to violence from the left,” Angelo continued. “Our Hate Map addresses this imbalance, providing a crucial resource for anyone committed to understanding and combating all forms of political violence.”
The NTC Hate Map is now live and accessible to the public on the New Tolerance Campaign website. NTC encourages all interested parties to utilize this resource to gain a more comprehensive understanding of political violence in America and to support efforts in promoting true tolerance.

Author and journalist, Alex Newman conducts a class at Camp Constitution’s 16th annual family camp. This presentation explains how elements in the US. government have aided, abetted and promoted our nation’s enemies from the Bolshevik Revolution to present day.
Mr. Newman hosts a show called the Liberty Sentinel which airs on Frank Speech and other platforms:
What makes Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton and Barack Hussein Obama think that peace is
possible between Israel and the Palestinians so long as Iran threatens to nuke Israel, is
rearming Hisbullah in Lebanon, and arming Hamas in Gaza, which is still determined to
destroy Israel?
What makes the Obama administration think that the Palestinians want peace when they
propose that Israel no longer maintain itself as a Jewish state and insist that it take in over
three million descendants of the 700,000 Arabs who once lived there? Forgotten are the
800,000 Jews expelled from Muslim countries after the 1948 war.
All the fuss being made by Biden and Clinton over the building of 1,600 new housing
units in Jerusalem is a case of misplaced indignation. Short of Israel committing suicide,
the Palestinians under Abbas are not about to assume the responsibilities of statehood
which would require it to behave like a legitimate sovereign nation. And that is why
they have rejected every offer the Israelis have made in the pursuit of peace.
The Palestinian government is the recipient of world charity which makes it unnecessary
for it to create anything of value. As the recipient of billions in free money, why bother
to work for a living? And as long as there is no peace agreement, they can continue to
launch suicide attacks against Israel at will.
Ever since the Oslo peace process began in 1993, Israel has had to make concession after
concession in the interest of peace. The Palestinians saw this as the successful result of
their intifada waged from 1987 to 1993. Many Israelis saw the Oslo process as the road
to a real peace that would bring untold prosperity to the region.
After President Clinton’s famous Camp David summit in the summer of 2000 between
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Yasir Arafat, Barak offered the Palestinians the
most generous peace terms any Israeli government could ever offer: 88 percent of the
West Bank and most of East Jerusalem. The response? The second intifada of
2001-2002 in which over 1,000 Israelis were killed in terrorist and suicide bomber
attacks.
In 2005, Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza, destroying the homes, farms, and
businesses of over 8,000 Israeli citizens. Did this disengagement bring peace? From the
date of withdrawal to the 2009 war, Gazan terrorists fired about 6,000 rockets and
mortars into Southern Israel. And even after the Gazan war, Hamas is still rearming
with the help of Iran, and Al Qaida has made inroads in the territory.
In September 2008, Prime Minister Olmert offered to withdraw from 94 percent of the
West Bank and create international Muslim control over Jerusalem’s holy sites. This
far-reaching offer was also rejected by the Palestinians.
Israel’s unceasing efforts to achieve peace in order to demonstrate to America that it truly
believes that peace is possible flies in the face of the intransigent realities on the ground.
The simple fact is that more and more Israelis are beginning to acknowledge that peace,
seemingly so near at hand, yet so elusive, is in the long run unachievable. Why?
Because the pre-conditions set by the Palestinians are simply impossible to meet.
Another fact is that despite the absence of peace, Israel has not only survived for 61
years, but has become a high-tech powerhouse, achieved a high standard of living, and
has managed to fare much better than most countries during the world financial crisis.
Yet, sixteen years of piecemeal concessions made under pressure from America and the
Europeans have convinced Israel haters that the Jewish state is quite vulnerable. Thus,
Israel’s yearning for peace and willingness to uproot its own people in Gaza and the
so-called settlements in Judea and Samaria, has encouraged its enemies to go for the
jugular.
And that is why what Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton hotly said in response to the notice
of the building in Jerusalem will provide ammunition to those who claim that it is Israel
that stands in the way of peace. Israel wants to please its American ally, but suicide is
not the most practical way to do it.
It should be noted that Israel now has a population of over 7 million inhabitants, of which
1.5 million are Muslim citizens of Israel, most of whom would object to becoming
citizens of a Palestinian state. Meanwhile, no Jews are permitted to be citizens of
Palestine. So much for a democratic, multicultural Palestinian state. There were even
Israelis in Gaza willing to live under a Palestinian government provided they were not
persecuted by that state.
Why doesn’t the American government insist that the projected Palestinian state permit
Jews to live in it? Unfortunately, the Palestinians would have to stop hating Jews, and
Barack Obama is not about to impose on the Palestinians their Allah-given imperative to
hate and kill Jews.

Camp Constitution in the News
Our lawsuit “Shurtleff v Boston” continues to be mentioned in the news around the United States. Our case was cited in defense of the recently passed law in Louisiana that calls for the placing of the Ten Commandments in the state’s public school classrooms. Cities and towns across the United States cited our case when passing ordinances banning all third-party flags including Lockhaven, PA, Enfield, CT and LaRue, TX. While other towns and cities, due to our case, have allowed the flying of Christian, and Pro-Life flags including Waltham, MA, Hartford, CT and Nashua, NH.

Stopping An Article V Convention
We testified against HCR 8 a resolution introduced by the far-left group Wolf PAC in New Hampshire’s House and it was soundly defeated, and we testified in favor of HCR 9, a resolution to rescind New Hampshire’s only Article V application. It passed the House by a voice vote which surprised many pundits but was not taken up in the Senate. In Maine, we helped defeat a resolution for an Article V Convention. On the morning before the vote, we appeared as a guest on WVOM-the Voice of Maine to discuss the issue. A link to the interview: https://youtu.be/g72_f6vk1ts?si=7R8Mg2aog5ZRFBVr
