By the way, which Madison was right? The one that argued that the national government couldn’t authorize a bank, or the Madison that authorized a bank? lol

My apologies. I somehow missed your post 57.

I think the Madison right who wrote The Federalist Papers, and who argued that the Federal Union could not authorize a bank.
