Martin VanBuren (December 5, 1782 - July 24, 1862) was the eighth (1833 - 1837) Vice President, the eighth (1837 - 1841) President of the United States and the first President born after the Declaration of Independence.
VanBuren was not an orator, but his more important speeches show careful preparation and his opinions carried weight; and the oft-repeated charge that he refrained from declaring himself on crucial questions is hardly borne out by an examination of his senatorial career.
In 1828 VanBuren was elected governor of New York for the term beginning on the 1st of January 1829, and resigned his seat in the Senate.
