    Woodrow Wilson agreed with James Madison's sentiments. These men were also framers of the United States Constitution.

    The Congress was divided into two houses. The Senate and House of Representatives. It is the Senate that James Madison refers to as the "a necessary fence" against the "fickleness and passion" of the house of representatives.

    The House of Representatives will pass federal legislation that will affect the whole country but these legislation will have to undergo thorough scrutiny by the Senate before it can be submitted to the President for his signature and become a law.

    The Senate acts as an "fence" because it will not immediately pass legislation that are in direct violation of the Constitution.
