James Madison: America's First politician

Send us Fan MailJoin me in a great conversation with Dr Jay Cost, author of James Madison, America's First Politician published by Basic Books.   This book should be mandatory reading in for every American citizen.  Dr Cost not only tells the story of James Madison's life but the story of how the US government was formed.  James Madison was probably the most qualified man ever to hold the office of the presidency.  He was the author of the US Constitution, the Federalist Papers and one of the principal framers for the American Bill of Rights.  In addition to serving as the fourth president of the United States, Madison also served as secretary of state for eight years.   He was Thomas Jefferson's best friend and the husband of America's true first lady, Dolly Madison.  An intellectual giant in the founding of America.You can Find Dr. Jay Cost's work at The American Enterprise   https://www.aei.org/profile/jay-cost/You can find Basic Books at https://www.basicbooks.com/You can find  Michele  on Twitter @ MicheleMcAloon1
