Option “C” is the correct answer to the given question.
James Madison was the Federalist and the fourth president of America, and so it
is the correct answer. It can be clearly mentioned that Lincoln was not there
when the Federalist Party was created. George Washington never associated
himself with any of the parties present during his time. Thomas Jefferson was a
Democratic-republican and so he could not be associated with the Federalist
Party. This leaves only James Maddison to be the one that was associated with
the federalist Party.
