Mr. Madison wrote the concepts of federalism that put into place of the system of checks and balances that are :wow: actually going to be used by the legislative branch to make sure that the executive branch is not abusing its power. How dare Mr. Madison try to make out president accountable to someone? It is shocking, just shocking, that such a person was allowed to create our new form of goverment that has survived for over 200 years. Didn't Madison know that Congress is just supposed to be the president's tool and do what he wants?

By the way, the word "patriot" in this country has been so defiled that I fear we will never retrieve it's true meaning again.
