Was george mason an anti-federalist?
James Madison was a Federalist. As a delegate to the US Constitutional Convention, he argued for a strong central government with a system of checks and balances. He also made his federalist positions clear as a contributor to the Federalist Papers. Later, in 1808 he was elected to the US presidency. He served from 1809 to 1817. Madison was the fourth US president. Additionally, in order to have the new constitution ratified, he added the Bill of Rights. He believed the bill was unnecessary as there was nothing in the constitution that kept these rights that already existed in the former members of the Federation. Actually Madison drafted 12 items to the Bill of Rights but the convention only passed 10 of them.
Who was last living founding father?
== == James Madison, the fifth president, was the last one who plyed a really major role in the founding of the republic, being one of the most important delegates to the Constitutional Convention (he is called the father of the Constitution), one of the authors of the Federalist Papers, and the chief author of the Bill of Rights. If you want to stretch the definition of "founding father" though, then James Monroe, who was an officewr in the Continental Army and a delegate to Virginia's constitutional ratifying convention, although on the Anti-Federalist side, could also count.
