Best Answer

Martin Van Buren (8th President of the U.S didn't have strong opinions on slavery, but ended up looking into the Amistad Case very thoroughly because he was concerned about relations with Spain and about his re-election prospects in the southern states. He sided with the Spanish position and demanded to return Africans to Cuba before appeals could be decided.

See Amistad (1841) -wikipedia.
