Madison's year long trial for a lifetime of freedom

Madison was and advocate for many individual rights. While serving in the House of Represnetatives James got to share his thoughts on basic rights by writing the first amendments of the constitution. Madison wrote nineteen basic rights in the original draft of the first amendment. The states only approved ten of the basic rights James drafted. The ten rights becames the first amendment also known as the bill of rights is what protects all the basic rights you have that the government can’t control. Madison made and passed the bill of rights in one year, which is amazing because most amendments take much longer to pass. Though only a year was used to make and pass it, the bill of rights will protect you forever.
