Did Millard Fillmore run for president?
Millard Fillmore was the 13th President of the United States
Did Millard Fillmore live a good life in the White House?
Living in the White House is not easy for most people. Fillmore was thrust into the presidency by the sudden death of President Taylor. The slavery issue was a major problem which had no apparent solution. Fillmore's wife was in poor health and frequently bed-ridden. So, I would guess that Fillmore's like in the White House left something to be desired. However, he did consent to make another run for the presidency, so maybe it was not so bad to live in the White House, or maybe he knew he would be elected and wanted to make a political by running.

Who were the forgettable presidents?
I remember them all, but those who were never elected , served less than a full term and did not run for another term would seem to be the most forgettable. These people are John Tyler, Millard Fillmore, Andrew Johnson and Chester Arthur. You might add Gerald Ford, but he ran for president and you might take away Millard Fillmore who made a run as a third party candidate that may have tipped an election. Andrew Johnson served in memorable times and had a tumultuous administration which makes him less forgettable. In most polls taken of "experts" in the field of the Presidency, the president who tends to turn up dead last as an effective president is James Buchanan, also making him very "forgettable".
