    Van Buren's four years of office were darkened by a financial panic; but what one man could do, he did to lighten it, by wringing from Congress its assent to a measure for a treasury independent of private banks. This, and his firm adherence to neutrality during the Canadian rebellion of 1837, showed him to be a far-seeing statesman; but both cost him popularity, and in 1840 he and his party were overwhelmingly defeated by the Whigs. His administration is also remembered for the passage of a preemption law giving settlers on public lands the preference in their purchase. In 1844 a majority of the delegates to the Democratic convention were pledged to support Van Buren, but on account of his opposition to the annexation of Texas they allowed a motion to be introduced making a two-thirds vote necessary for nomination. This he failed to obtain and his name was withdrawn. In 1848 he was nominated by the anti-slavery ("Free-Soil") section of his party, but the split caused the defeat of both Democratic candidates. He supported Pierce in 1852 and Buchanan in 1856, though remaining an uncompromising opponent of slavery. But his life was spent chiefly in retirement on his estate at Kinderhook, with the exception of a European tour in 1853-55. He died at Kinderhook July 24, 1862.

    VAN BUREN, MARTIN
    , eighth president of the United States, vice president, U.S. senator, governor of New York. Hardworking, quick at collecting and absorbing facts, and a good judge of character, Martin Van Buren was in his early career an exceptionally able trial lawyer who gained a reputation for his political skills. Van Buren at first supported Aaron Burr in his efforts to break the influence of the great families that had ruled New York for several generations. But soon discovering that Burr was doomed to defeat, he changed sides and allied himself with DeWitt Clinton, then the rising star in New York politics. Constantly on the move attending sessions of the various courts, Van Buren widened his acquaintances among lawyers and officials throughout the state and utilized this network to build a political organization. For many years known as the "Albany Regency," it dominated the politics of the state. Van Buren's novel tactics, his patronage policies, and his understanding of communication and discipline anticipated modern political practices. As such, he was the principle architect of the second American party system.

    Van Buren, Martin
    , eighth president of the United States and vice president under Andrew Jackson . Born in the Dutch community of Kinderhook, New York (the first president to be born after the Revolution), Van Buren became a leader of the Democratic party in the state of New York. Before joining the U.S. Senate in 1821 he established the "Albany Regency," a political organization to run the state in his absence. In the Senate Van Buren successfully led the fight to abolish debtors' prison and tried to stop the extension of the slave trade. As a supporter of Andrew Jackson for president in the election of 1828 , Van Buren ran for and won the post of governor of New York to ensure that Jackson would receive the state's electoral votes. Jackson rewarded him by appointing him secretary of state in 1829. Van Buren supported Jackson's unpopular policies toward the Bank of the United States and stood by him when Jackson reorganized his cabinet during the Eaton affair . In 1831 Van Buren was, by one vote, denied confirmation as minister to Great Britain by anti-Jackson forces in Congress. Van Buren, for his loyalty, became Jackson's chosen successor, first as Jackson's running mate in the

    MARTIN VAN BUREN 8th President of the United States Martin Van Buren was a U.S. Senator and governor of New York, and one of the founders of the Democratic Party. Under Andrew Jackson , Van Buren served as Secretary of State, Minister to England and Vice President. Shortly after Van Buren took office a financial panic in 1837 forced several bank closures. Van Buren ran for re-election in 1840, but was defeated by the Whig candidate, William Henry Harrison
    Extra credit : Van Buren, nicknamed "The Little Magician" for his political skills (and small frame), was a widower with four sons when he moved into the White House... He was also called "Old Kinderhook" after his hometown, and that nickname is supposed to have given rise to the term "OK"... Washington Irving wrote most of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" while staying at Van Buren's home Lindenwald in Kinderhook. Martin Van Buren

    EXPLORE ANIMALS ENVIRONMENT HISTORICAL BIRTHDAYS ... home Contents VAN BUREN, Martin Van Buren was born on Dec. 5, 1782, in Kinderhook, N.Y., of a relatively prosperous middle-class family. He was well educated by private tutors, becoming a lawyer at the age of 20. His law practice was unusually successful, and it enabled him to cultivate the elegant tastes in clothing and life-style that were to earn him a reputation as a dandy. His political career also thrived. He served in the New York state senate from 1812 and 1820 and was the state attorney general from 1816 to 1819. In 1821 the state legislature that he had come to dominate elected him to the U.S. Senate.

Four years later he left the increasingly proslavery Democratic party to accept the presidential nomination of the new Free-Soil party. He was, of course, soundly beaten in the election. Yet, there was something admirable as well as fascinating in the switch by the master of practical politics to the politics of principle. In his later years Van Buren wrote an autobiography designed to vindicate his administration. He did not succeed. He died in Kinderhook on July 24, 1862.

    ... A "Used-Up Man" a true man with no guile —Andrew Jackson on Martin Van Buren you were a great intriguer—the author of sundry plots —William L. Marcy to Martin Van Buren Few people ever really knew Martin Van Buren . The impeccable attire, ready wit, and unfailing tact that set him apart from his contemporaries masked a nagging sense of insecurity that dogged him throughout his political career. His father, a tavern keeper of modest means, had been able to provide him with only a rudimentary education. One of Van Buren's better-educated associates observed that his "knowledge of books outside of his profession was more limited than that of any other public man" he had ever known and that Van Buren never prepared a state paper without asking a friend to "revise and correct that document." Van Buren received his real education in the turbulent and factious world of New York politics, and he was an apt pupil. He learned to hold his counsel as others debated the hotly contested issues of the day, carefully observing the course of a debate and weighing all of the issues before staking out a position of his own. "Even after deciding on a course of action," one scholar has observed, "Van Buren might move with an air of evasiveness." Circumspect to a fault, he "enjoyed a name for noncommittalism that survived when most other things about him were

Traditionally, the current president sends flowers to the graves of each of the deceased former presidents on their birthdays. Van Buren's birthday was a week or so before I got there, so the flowers were still there.

    “Martin Van Buren was the son of a truck farmer/innkeeper. He met politicians who stopped by the inn on their way to and from the state capital. He became a law clerk at the age of fourteen after attending a village school. By twenty-one he had a successful law practice. He was ambitious as a politican. He was nicknamed ‘Little Magician’ because of his political prowess and his small size. He helped Andrew Jackson win the presidency, and as a reward Jackson appointed him secretary of state and then vice president. In 1836, Van Buren was elected President. Soon after, the nation suffered a financial depression. Van Buren’s popularity decreased because of the financial panic, border disputes and accusations from pro-slavery and anti-slavery leaders. He was defeated in his bed for a second term and a third time in 1848 when he ran on the Free Soil Party ticket – a group opposed to slavery.”

    Essay Project #2 15 Points Political Cartoon Analysis Directions: Read carefully the brief overview below. Then choose one of the four political cartoons to analyze. The term “Analyze” is defined as the examination of components or elements in a cartoon in an effort to determine a relation to an event or person. After you have analyzed the cartoon of your choice write an essay on your findings. The guidelines for the essay are located on the cover sheet distributed. Political Cartoon Overview- A “Political Cartoon,” as it is written in World Book 2002 , is an attempt to accomplish, in pictures, what editorials do in words. A political cartoon encourages a reader to develop an opinion about someone or something prominent in the news. Most of these cartoons appear as single panels on the editorial pages of newspapers. Some have captions or titles. Others consist only of a drawing. Political cartoons may support an editorial of the day, or they may deal with a news event. Many editorial cartoonists use an exaggerated form of drawing called a caricature to poke fun at well-known people. The four political cartoons to follow are all related to the United States ’ eighth president, Martin Van Buren.
