 Carter walked on the way back, I don't think he walked there.  I'd be inclined to say either Washington or Adams since I doubt the distances were as long in either New York or Philadelphia, with Adams being the likelier choice.

No to Carter, Washington, and Adams.

You guys want a not-so-helpful hint?

Alright, you have:

Democratic
Republican
American Independent
Whig
Federalist
Progressive
Dixiecrat
Populist

So, would it be 8?

Wait, didn't the Know-Nothings get on the map with Fillmore?  I think it's 9.  I'm not completely sure though...Some small one issue party could have gotten somewhere in the early 1800s...?

Actually, the party of Lincoln in 1864 was "Unionist."

The White House was actually finished in November, 1800. Making John Adams the first President to reside there.
