Martin Van Buren was a prominent American lawyer and politician who served as the eighth president of the United States from 1837 to 1841. He was a key figure in founding the Democratic Party and had previously served as New York’s attorney general, U.S. senator, and briefly as the state’s governor. Van Buren later served as secretary of state and as the eighth vice president of the United States under Andrew Jackson. After winning the presidency in 1836, he lost re-election in 1840 and failed to secure the Democratic nomination in 1844. In his later years, Van Buren became an influential anti-slavery leader and led the Free Soil Party’s presidential ticket in the 1848 election.
