"Van Buren is as opposite to General Jackson as dung is to a diamond...He is what the English call a 'dandy.' When he enters the Senate chamber in the morning, he struts and swaggers like a crow in the gutter. He is laced up in corsets, such as women in town wear, and, if possible, tighter than the best of them. It would be difficult to say, from his personal appearance, whether he was a man or woman, but for his large...whiskers."

-- Congressman Davy Crockett of Tennessee, on then-Vice President Martin Van Buren, 1835

Toby Stephens as US President Martin Van Buren in the Christmas special of DODGER “Coronation”, on BBC/CBBC in December.

[antebellumite]

A recluent team up of the water demon Earth Master Daniel Webster in female form, two lieutenants of the Crimson Ghost King, 1/4 of the Famous Tales, and 1/3 of the Three Tumors have joined together to interrogate the mysterious spirit Martin van Buren on his heavenly intentions....

Something that always infuriated me to high hell, was the cycling myth that James A. Hamilton didn't like either, A) being Secretary of State, or B) Andrew Jackson. All because he resigned office after 23 days. When in reality, he had to, because he was acting Secretary of State. As an Acting Secretary, the person is only serving in the capacity of the Secretary in their absence. So, James was merely a placeholder until the appointment of Martin Van Buren. It wasn't out of ill feelings for Jackson, unfortunately those two were really close.

"Balie Peyton, a racing enthusiast and close friend of Jackson, related an interesting incident which occurred during one of these visits. Peyton, a Congressman, had been to watch some horses take their practice rims. He was in company of a number of politicians including the Vice-President Martin Van Buren.

When Busirus, a big burly horse, began to kick and rear up requiring two men to hold him, Jackson boomed the he could have had the horse broken of such nonsense within an hour. He then proceeded to bombard all the handlers with orders and directions.

When the horse again became unmanageable and dangerous, Jackson shouted to the youthful Van Buren to "get behind me, Mr. Van Buren, they will run over you, sir." The Vice-President, not one to quibble with Jackson, especially over these matters, hastily complied.

Van Buren used to tell this tale to indicate Jackson's fatherly protection and care for him when he was campaigning for the Presidency in 1836."

~ 22 Balie Peyton, "President Jackson's Orders and Reminiscences," in The Rural Sun ( 1873 ), quoted in Anderson, The American Thoroughbred, 245

Geez, everyone just sees Jackson as a papa wolf, don't they?

I can easily imagine Buren fake crying against someone he doesn't want to win. And Jackson makes Buren get behind him while bombarding that someone insults. All the while Buren is just smirking watching the scene unfold.😑😑

But I love these kinds of stories about him!

It shows how nice and caring he was towards his friends 🥰
