Slavery. New York was still a slave state when Van Buren was growing up, and his family owned slaves. As a young man Van Buren owned a slave himself, a man named Tom. When Tom ran away, Van Buren made no effort to recover him. But ten years later, in 1824, the escapee was discovered living in Worcester, Massachusetts, and at that point Van Buren agreed to sell him to another man if he could be captured "without violence."

Women loved him. If women would have had the right to vote in the mid-nineteenth century Martin vVan Buren might have become a five-term president, and might have avoided the Civil War. But as it turned out he only served as the U.S. president for four years from 1837 to 1841. What prevented him from being re-nominated was out of his control. As was known then, and certainly now, a bad economy will make any president a one-term president. Van Buren also was able to ascend to the highest position in the land at a time when there were many other brilliant politicians competing with him for the same position. In his age cohort were such historic figures as Daniel Webster, John C. Calhoun and Thomas Hart Benton. Only Van Buren succeeded in his quest to become a U.S. president. He succeeded because he discovered through experience, analysis and observation that politics involves both being decisive and compromising. He knew hard ball politics such as deal making, vote counting, promotion, publicity, incentives and cutting losses. He was pragmatic and not all of his decisions were based on what he felt was best for the country at that time. But he knew what was best for his own progress up the political ladder.

In 1839, the president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Joseph Smith, went to president Martin Van Buren to ask him to help Mormons in Missouri when the governor of the state, Lilburn Boggs, had issued an extermination order. Reportedly, Van Buren said, "Your cause is just, but I can do nothing for you; if I take up for you, I shall lose the vote of Missouri."
