After graduation, James Madison didn't know what he wanted to do. He could had gone back to the family plantation and farm or he became a minister. He thought about becoming a lawyer. He decided to help in the government. He served in the Contin ental Congress. He studied a lot and taken a lot of notes. When the men met to talk about a constitution, Madison spoke 161 times.
