Martin Van Buren CREATED the DEM Party. It's so absurd to list him, Tyler, and other pro-slavers as "small government." Nonsense.

The only face on Rushmore that should be changed is Reagan, replacing TR. And if I had room for Coolidge and Cleveland, I'd put them up there too.

When a historian speaks, people should listen!

Martin Van Buren’s father was a slaveholder, but he later ran as the Free Soil candidate in 1848. The good people of Van Buren County, Missouri, were so upset by that that they changed the name of their county to Cass County (after the 1848 Demoncratic nominee, Lewis Cass).
