James Madison (March 16, 1751 – June 28, 1836) was President of the United States from 1809-1817. He was married to Dolley Madison.[1]

Prior to his Presidency, Madison wrote large portions of the Constitution, including parts regarding the Congress's ability to approve a budget.[2]

President Madison dealt with a Congress that wished to make English the National Language. This fact was noted by Donna Moss in a report she gave to Josh Lyman in 2000.[3]

Leo McGarry claimed (apparently as a joke) that Madison ran his presidency off of a message calendar.[4]
