Not at all. I just wanted to remind everyone that he was on the committee to write the Declaration of Independence and Congress later revised it, he is not the sole author.

While Madison was a key player on the committee drafting The Constitution, he was most influential in the drafting and revision, getting to the final document.

More importantly, he alone drafted The Bill of Rights, ensuring each man was treated equally under the law and ensuring the injuries suffered under the King, the Parliament and henchmen could never have any imprimatur and excuse for abuse of God given rights.
