Fillmore. Kept the union together, consolidated the various radical fringe groups, and slapped them around. Kept extremists away, and thus avoided civil war. Would've been successful too, if it weren't for Scott and Webster opposing his renomination. He could've won re-election if the convention didn't go to 100+ ballots as per otl. Moderate hero, great lawyer, Great Compromiser
