James Madison did not directly help Zachary Taylor become president, as Madison served as the fourth president from 1809 to 1817, while Taylor was elected as the 12th president in 1848. However, Madison's contributions to the formation of the Democratic-Republican Party and his influence on early American politics helped shape the political landscape in which Taylor emerged as a prominent military leader and candidate for the Whig Party.
