Garden variety slaveocrat. Also, literally wanted to fund a journey to the center of the earth because he thought it was hollow. HP.

A good Jacksonian Democrat who should have been president instead of Polk.

Freed and married one of his slaves, and attempted to bequeath his possessions to their children (though after his death a court prevented this from happening). The fact that he only got as far as he did in politics is due, in no small part, to this. Thought that should be mentioned in this thread.

Apparently, after his wife died, he began a relationship with one of his other slaves - but then she left him for another man and he had her sold at auction. He also opposed efforts to abolish slavery in the District of Colombia. Not exactly the racial progressive his family life implies.
