18 Annotation

"James Madison". The White House. 12-11-08 http://www.whitehouse.gov/history/presidents/jm4.html

Apparently, Madison was alive when he was given the title of "Father of the Constitution', because according to this article he couldn't accept the name. The author supplies a quote that expressed his feeings toward the success of the creation of the Constition. He said that the document was not "the off-spring of a single brain," but "the work of many heads and many hands."
