'''Millard Fillmore''' ([[January 7]], [[1800]] &ndash; [[March 8]], [[1874]]) was the thirteenth [[President of the United States]], serving from 1850 until 1853, and the last member of the [[Whig Party (United States)|Whig Party]] to hold that office. He was the second [[Vice President of the United States|Vice President]] to assume the Presidency upon the death of a sitting President, succeeding [[Zachary Taylor]] who died of what is thought to be acute [[gastroenteritis]] or [[hyperthermia]] (heat stroke). Fillmore was never elected President; after serving out Taylor's term, he failed to gain the nomination for the Presidency of the [[Whig Party (United States)|Whigs]] in the [[U.S. presidential election, 1852|1852 presidential election]], and, four years later, in the [[United States presidential election, 1856|1856 presidential election]], he again failed to win election as the [[Know Nothing|Know Nothing Party]] and Whig candidate.
