"As Widmer relates, some newspapermen called the New York Democrat 'the little magician" because of his diminutive frame and his deftness at political sleight of hand. Others—who criticized his response when the American economy ground to a halt shortly after his election in 1836—called him "Martin Van Ruin.'"
(Note the special offer: Martin van Buren and Chester A. Arthur!)
