We are both right...I checked, both Madison and Monroe were there but Madison did precede both Monroe and Washington...Monroe was a 17 year old, Madison was aide de camp to Washington.

Very interesting...learned something new today. For some reason, I have always been fascinated with the ACW and have never had the chance to read up on the Rev. War. As a foreigner, I haven't had the history lessons either :)

That said, I have always been fascinated with the documents that supported the creation of the United States. Jefferson is one of my favorite figures from that glorious time in your country's history.

IMO, the Bill of Rights is the greatest document ever written by human beings. I used to hand a copy on my wall for years before I even came here.

No--we are not both right, you continue to be wrong and I continue to be right. Perhaps you're just playing a game and think it's cute, but Madison never fought in the Revolution and never was an aide-de-camp to General Washington. Hamilton was an aide-de-camp to Washington and was also at Trenton.

Many of us here take the RevWar seriously, and for you to put up falsehoods about it is neither clever nor funny. In case you have a history of similar behavior I am notifying the admin moderator.
