James               Madison               was               a               young               man               in               his               twenties               when               The               American               Revolutionary               War               was               fought.

He               had               made               his               reputation               serving               as               Thomas               Jefferson's               protege               in               Virginia.

He               was               neither               a               military               man               nor               even               famous               as               a               speaker,               but               he               earned               solid               respect               as               a               writer.

He               was               credited               for               much               of               the               work               in               the               drafting               of               the               Constitution               and               helped               to               get               it               ratified               in               a               series               of               newspaper               articles               called               "The               Federalist               Papers".

It               was               as               Jefferson's               Secretary               of               State               that               James               achieved               his               biggest               success               by               negotiating               the               "Louisiana               Purchase"               which               doubled               the               size               of               the               country               overnight               with               a               simple               real               estate               deal.

Madison               is               often               given               credit               as               being               the               "Father               of               the               Bill               of               Rights",               which               was               partially               true.

Madison               had               ideas               for               17               amendments               which               were               intended               to               provide               the               Constitution               with               more               backbone               than               the               failed               "Articles               of               Confederation"               that               had               come               earlier.

His               list               of               the               Bill               of               Rights               was               whittled               down               and               an               important               addition               made               with               the               Ninth               Amendment.

Madison               was               a               promoter               of               a               strong               Federal               government               that               had               a               higher               authority               than               the               states               rights.

The               Ninth               Amendment               seems               to               reserve               any               rights               that               were               not               specified               in               the               Constitution               and               the               other               amendments               as               being               part               of               a               reservoir               of               God               given               rights               that               were               reserved               to               the               people.

This               was               not               a               belief               that               Madison               shared               since               he               was               against               "an               excess               of               democracy"               and               believed               that               big               government               was               better               able               to               make               laws               for               the               good               of               the               population               beyond               their               meager               layman               understanding               of               broader               issues.
               After               the               revolution,               George               Washington               had               worked               hard               to               establish               good               trade               relations               with               Great               Britain.

He               had               a               hard               won               understanding               of               the               power               of               the               Empire               from               suffering               beside               his               troops.

He               sought               to               protect               his               fledgling               country               by               pursuing               peaceful               commerce               and               tried               to               stay               out               of               conflicts               between               Britain               and               the               other               powers               of               Europe.

James               Madison               had               a               poor               understanding               of               this               balance               and               a               misplaced               evaluation               led               him               into               a               bad               choice               when               he               finally               got               his               chance               to               be               President.
               Napoleon               was               on               a               full               scale               plan               of               conquest               which               drew               the               Americans               into               the               conflict.

The               British               navy               boarded               US               ships               to               round               up               recruits               and               "impress"               them               into               the               fight               against               Napoleon.

Also               the               strategy               of               the               British               to               incite               the               native               American               tribes               to               resist               US               expansion               was               a               thorny               issue.The               hawks               of               Congress               helped               convince               Madison               that               a               war               with               Great               Britain               was               inevitable               which               led               America               to               declare               war               in               1812.

When               Napoleon               was               at               last               defeated,               the               battle               hardened               troops               were               sent               to               teach               the               former               colonists               a               lesson.
               In               1814,               British               troops               routed               the               American               militia               at               the               Battle               of               Bladensberg               and               took               over               Washington               DC.

They               proceeded               to               begin               burning               public               buildings               and               even               dined               at               a               White               House               buffet               that               had               been               left               by               fleeing               residents.

This               was               not               James               Madison's               finest               hour               since               he               is               recorded               as               riding               through               town               urging               citizens               to               flee               for               their               lives.

Only               his               wife               got               some               credit               for               saving               a               famous               painting               of               George               Washington.

That               story               was               later               revised               to               give               the               honors               to               her               servants.

Washington               DC               might               have               burned               to               the               ground               except               for               the               "divine               "               intervention               of               a               great               storm               with               tornadoes               that               swept               through               the               city               driving               the               British               back               to               their               ships               after               only               a               day               of               occupation.

It               was               a               humiliating               time               for               the               President               and               for               the               country               which               was               partially               redeemed               by               Andrew               Jackson's               victory               in               New               Orleans.
