James Madison was a Federalist because he wanted governing power to shift from the states to the national government. He wanted to completely deny sovereignty to the states, not just restrict it.
James Madison was a Democratic-Republican because he believed in a weak and limited government. He modified his views when he became president, when he accepted that a strong, standing army was important for the nation's security.
because he wanted a national bank and the first Democratic-Republican was Thomas Jefferson so all presidents before him are federalists
