Bad ignition switch. This is one of the problems experienced by many classic Mustang owners. The problem also has occured in reverse, ignition switch is on and the engine just simply dies. I usually keep a spare ignition switch (a used one which I know works to trobleshoot should the problem arise) and a new one to quickly replace the bad one since they are fairly inexpensive.
What else can I help you with?

Either the starter, starter relay or ignition switch are failing.
How do you wire in a toggle switch to start the car?
By passkey. If you are talking about a starter by-pass. It is not keyed, but a push button on & off switch. You must break the small wire at the starter relay, or solenoid, and wire the switch in series. After the car starts, you must release the push on/off switch, or you will keep turning the starter motor.
Starter keep on turning after the motor is runing?
Sounds like the starter solenoid is stuck. Another possibility is the ignition key switch is not automatically returning from the start to run position. As the switches get older they seem to get stiff. Could be a weak spring in the switch or just gummed up lubricant. The easy test is to try turning the key counter clockwise after starting the engine and see if the starter motor stops running.
Would a neutral safety switch keep your A ford explorer from starting up?
Not only would the safety switch keep the engine from starting up, the starter would make no attempt to crank the engine over.
Can a bad ignition switch keep the starter engaged?
Probably not a bad ignition switch, but more likely a bad starter solenoid. It takes a lot of current to get a starter to turn, to much to go through such a small switch like the ignition switch. The ignition switch actually controls a relay(solenoid) which can handle the needed current to get the starter going. On a lot of modern cars the solenoid is built into the starter unlike older cars and trucks where it was mounted on the firewall between the battery and the starter.
