Next on our list, we have another founding father. James Madison ended up becoming the 4th President of the United States and he held the position from 1809 until 1817. He was called the “Father of the Constitution” and many people admired his excellent leadership skills. He even became the first graduate student at Princeton University after finishing college with honors in only two years’ time. He led the country in the War of 1812, established the national bank, and strengthened both the military and government powers. Dolly, his wife, also did excellently as the First Lady by setting an example for young women at the time.
