America got Off to a Rocky Start

I am reading The Madisons: America's First Power Couple (The True Story of James & Dolley Madison) that I got from Amazon for free.

And I am amazed by how many mistakes American politicians made. The only country to make more, was France who invented whole categories of mistakes and was blessed with Napoleon Bonapart. Who did favor us with the Lousiana Purchase.

The Madisons were responsible for a war with Britain, who burned down Washington, DC. They both owned slaves and considered them part of their property.

James was rightfully considered the Father of the American Constitution - something brilliant the Americans invented themselves.
