James Madison became president primarily because he was considered the father of the constitution. He was one of the most important people in the first form of a US government. I would have definitely voted for him because it was obvious that he would make a strong political leader. He made a good president because of the role he played in creating the constitution. Madison helped the whole time, in the constitutional convention since the beginning. His inauguration was on March 4th, 1809. It was a celebratory day, held at the capitol. The first ever inaugural ball took place afterwards. In [|his speech], he talked about becoming the president and the great responsibilities that come with it, and promised to do his best to help the country.
