Martin Van Buren has a connection to the early use of okay, but I don't think any
experts think he created it. What happened is that when the phrase, which comes from "Oll Korrect" , was just catching on, supporters of Van Buren started an OK club which had a double meaning, since OK could stand for Old Kinderhook, a nickname for VanBuren as well as its other meaning.
