The topic for today’s Federalism Matters podcast is James Madison.
James Madison is often referred to as the Father of the Constitution, for his contributions to the constitution and for co-authoring the Federalist Papers, which advocated for ratification of the new constitution. Today we examine the contributions of James Madison to American government by revisiting Gordon Henderson’s entry on the 4th president of the United States in the Encyclopedia of American Federalism.
