James Madison, born on 16 March 1751, in Port Conway, Virginia, was an
American statesman and political theorist. Often hailed as the "Father
of the Constitution," Madison played a crucial role in the drafting of
the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights. He served as the
fourth President of the United States from 1809 to 1817. Madison's
legacy is marked by his contributions to the foundational documents of
American governance, his role in the creation of the Bill of Rights, and
his lasting impact on the principles of constitutional government. He
passed away on 28 June 1836, at Montpelier, his plantation in Virginia.
