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.
