Abstract
- This paper examines the extensive public communication efforts of James Madison to move the U.S. toward war with Great Britain in the War of 1812. Madison employed various techniques, including public letters and numerous pro-war commentaries that were published in his presidential newspaper. The research findings demonstrate that Madison was a far more active leader as president than is commonly thought. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
