"James Madison" - 2024 age 75            James Madison - 1825 age 74 from his "life-mask"

 There are those who wonder what the Founding Fathers would have to say about the state of our Nation here in the 21st century.  One such Founding Father has made his way through and back to our timeline.  His name is James Madison, "Father of the Constitution" of the United States, Member of Congress, Secretary of State for both of Thomas Jefferson's Presidential terms, presiding over the Louisiana Purchase, and the 4th President of these United States for two terms, including the War of 1812.
Join Mr. Madison here as he reflects on what he sees and addresses certain issues of the day which he entreats you to consider; for in his words, "Redii pro Deo et Patriae." (I have returned for God and Country)

James Madison is available for presentations and appearances at Corporate, Community, Political, School and Church events, meetings and gatherings.

Shhhh! Don't tell anyone but this is not really James Madison.  His real name is Lou Magill and he is 76 years old.  The fact that he looks a lot like Mr. Madison at the same age is strictly coincidence.  Though he is a 60 year veteran actor on stage, including as a professional opera singer, this is his most challenging role yet.  The years of research alone are daunting enough with over a dozen biographies plus numerous internet articles. YouTube lectures and other source material abound. Then there is what is called "primary source" material which is everything that Madison ever wrote, which was a lot: Federalist Papers, notes of the  Constitutional Convention every day for almost 4 months and a slew of other writings and letters. He was prolific.  
Becoming a first person interpreter of Founding Father James Madison is a tremendous commitment, responsibility and obligation.  Mr. Magill once confessed to his church rector that the more he read and the more he studied, the more he felt Madison slowly seeping in as if melding into one.  Though concerned about this transformational effect called "channeling", Mr Magill said, "Sure, it's kind of unsettling, but it must be done. I don't have a choice.  Some things in life you don't ask or go looking for.  They find you and you really have little say in the matter.  You just deal with it the best you can and accept the journey.  It's pointless to try to understand "Why".  That's above my pay grade.  I just pray that I prove worthy of this mission."
