Yes, Pierce won on his first try. He was probably surprised to be nominated since the race for nomination was between four other men, but none of them could get the required majority so Pierce was put up as a compromise .
Few people change things very much. Franklin Pierce was not a reformer and did not try to make many changes. He did make an effort to obtain Cuba for the US, but was unable to do so. He tried to solve the slavery issue, but it was beyond any peaceful solution. The army and navy were both made more efficient by his administration, which fact helped the North in the Civil War.
The overwhelming issue in Pierce's day was slavery which was a racial issue because the slaves were black . The issue existed long before Pierce was president, but he tried to prevent it from tearing the country apart. When the United States was formed states in the South were dependent on slave labor and states in the north had mostly outlawed the practice so the conflict was already there, but the clauses were added to the Constitution was added to guarantee the right for a state to allow slavery. But the conflict arose again as new states were added .
