James Madison

    James Madison fut un homme d'État américain et le quatrième président des États-Unis, largement considéré comme le « Père de la Constitution » pour sa paternité principale du document. Il est également connu comme le « Père de la Déclaration des droits », ayant rédigé les dix premiers amendements. Théoricien politique clé, Madison a défendu de solides contrôles et contrepoids pour freiner l'influence des intérêts particuliers et s'est profondément engagé à établir des mécanismes qui garantiraient le républicanisme. En tant que président, il a mené la nation à travers la guerre de 1812, un conflit qui a finalement favorisé un nouvel esprit de nationalisme et a marqué un changement dans ses propres positions politiques.
