Initially James Madison rejected those calls, but later helped aggregate the various states' inputs in 1789 and the states ratified the amendments in 1791. Because Madison was the lead effort on the submission, he often gets the credit, though it was really due to the pressure of the states. Therefore the various states were actually responsible for the bill of rights being added to the U.S. Constitution.
