James Madison

James Madison was for Majority Rule in Federalist Number 10. He was against factions that could work against public interest.

yes. He was elected in 1789 and served 8 years

Of all the Federalist Papers written by John Jay, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton, perhaps the most famous and the one most quoted is Federalist No. 10, by Madison. Many people had argued against the new Constitution claiming that the US would be too large to govern as a democracy (republic) and had too many groups, or “factions,” as political parties (interest groups) were then called. While Madison acknowledged that there were many differing factions, he also indicated that a democratic form of government, using the ideal of majority rule, would tame the factions and cause them to work together as much as possible. He claimed that the republican form of government created by the new Constitution would allow all the factions the room and venues to express themselves and to influence the workings of government by getting their members elected and/or appointed to offices. Minority groups would be protected because the factions would have to negotiate their differences. In this way, the republic would create a system of government in which the majority would rule but the ideas of the minority would have to be taken into consideration. Numerous factions would also mean that no one group would be able to take complete control of the government and this would give rise to what Madison called “politics,” namely, the art of governing.

no James Monroe did not wear a wig his hair was brown and he wore it back in a ponytail.

James Madison feared the emergence of political parties because he believed that the new American republic was a majority tyranny created by the domination of a single faction fighting for one set of interests. ( AP Addition of American Government book) In other words he feared that one political party would have more power than the other.

Madison wondered whether a majority that was united by a common passion could be stopped from oppressing the minority. He felt that this could lead to an unjust pursuit of goals that would necessarily led to the suppression of the rights of others.

James Madison served as President of the United States between 1809 and 1817. His second vice president was Elbridge Gerry (July 17, 1744 - November 23, 1814) who served from March 4, 1813 until his death.

Gerry, whose name was pronounced with a hard G, like the word "girl", was the namesake of the political process gerrymandering, though this word has, in time, come to be pronounced with a soft G sound.

Gouverneur Morris of Pennsylvania was put in charge of the committee to draft the final copy of the Constitution. The other men who had much to do with writing the new Constitution included John Dickinson, Edmund Randolph, Roger Sherman, James Wilson, and George Wythe. Morris was given the task of putting all the convention's resolutions and decisions into polished form. Morris actually "wrote" the Constitution. The original copy of the document is preserved in the National Archives Building in Washington, D.C. Jacob Shallus, assistant clerk of the Pennsylvania State Assemble, was given the task of engrossing the Constitution prior to the signing of the document. His office was in the same building in which the Convention was held.
