Madison was born into a prominent slave-owning planter family in Virginia. He served as a member of the Virginia House of Delegates and the Continental Congress during and after the American Revolutionary War. Dissatisfied with the weak national government established by the Articles of Confederation, he helped organize the Constitutional Convention, which produced a new constitution designed to strengthen republican government against democratic assembly. Madison's Virginia Plan was the basis for the convention's deliberations, and he was an influential voice at the convention. He became one of the leaders in the movement to ratify the Constitution and joined Alexander Hamilton and John Jay in writing The Federalist Papers, a series of pro-ratification essays that remains prominent among works of political science in American history. Madison emerged as an important leader in the House of Representatives and was a close adviser to President George Washington.The most expensive item with a signature of James Madison (Thomas Jefferson & James Madison Signed 9.25X15 1802 Military Appointment BAS) was sold in January 2021 for $9999.99 while the cheapest item (PERCY AGYEI-OBESE RC AUTO 2022 Sage Autograph Red #A-PAO James Madison Universit) found a new owner for $0.55 in April 2023.
