// JAMES MADISON // Hi, I’m a famous American and I was well known for my part in the United States Constitution. I did so much for it I was nicknamed” Father of the Constitution.” I was also the 4th president of the United states .Do you know who I am? Well, I am James Madison 4th president of the United States. I was born on March16, 1751 in Port Conway, Virginia. I was the oldest of twelve children. My parents had great confidence in me. My parents were very right. I was educated at Innes Plantation in King and Queen county. I was taught by Donald Robertson until I was 16. Then I went to Princeton University. My parents were named James Madison Sr. and Nelly Conway. I married dolly Todd in 1794. We had no children. When I grew up I became an author of the Bill of Rights. I also organized the Democratic Republic party Thomas Jefferson. In 1809 I was about 60 years old I became President. Soon after, France and Britain were in a war. Then the United States got pulled into it. It was called “The War of 1812.”It was mostly against Britain. America won the war. The battle ended in 1815 after the Treaty of Ghent was signed. During the war I got elected for a second term in 1813. Finally, my second term ended in 1817. After being president, I retired in Montpelier, Vermont. After Thomas Jefferson died I became a college chancellor for ten years. In 1836 James Madison died of old age. He lived to be 85 years old. He was buried in the Madison family cemetery. After he died a park was built after him. Now it is known as Madison Square Gardens. Interesting Facts I was the smallest president under 100 pounds. In my term the White House and Capital Building were burned down by Britain. Also, both of my Vice presidents died in my presidency. Last of all, I was good friends with Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe. I hope you learned more about James Madison,” Father of our Constitution.”
