Best Answer

Martin Van Buren failed to win the Democratic party nomination in 1944 mainly due to his refusal to support the annexation of Texas as a slave state. He was nominated by the anti-slavery Free Soil Party in 1948. The Free Soil Party was made up of antislavery democrats who were called "Barnburners".
