Journal Article
The Constitutional Convention of 1787: a revolution in government
2006
Overview
Standing only a few inches over five feet tall, scrawny, suffering from a combination of poor physical health and hypochondria, and painfully awkward in any public forum, Madison nevertheless possessed a combination of intellect, energy, and political savvy that would mobilize the effort to create an entirely new form of continental union. Had a strong advocate of the sovereign power of the individual states such as Patrick Henry, who was elected a delegate to the Convention but who had declined to serve, heard of this radical deviation from the instructions of the Confederation Congress, he would have mounted his horse and ridden to Philadelphia to join the Virginia delegation.
