Fillmore only became president because of the unexpected death of President Zachary Taylor. I doubt very much that he had any expectation or any real hopes to becoming President. He did not receive any votes for president at the nominating convention. In those days, VP was mostly ceremonial position and had no influence. It was not a position that an aspiring Presidential candidate would want.
