What did Hamilton and James Madison butt heads about when writing the Constitution?
Answer Hamilton wanted the president and senators to have lifelong tenure
Although James Madison and Hamilton authored the Federalist Papers together, they were not always on the same page. As the Constitution was being written, Hamilton argued for life-long tenure for U.S. senators and the president. Madison saw that as near-monarchy and debated against it. Needless to say, Madison and those like-minded won the argument.
