The definition of major party was fuzzy back in the civil war reconstruction era
He was nominated by the Greenback party, (third party) running against the Democrat and Republican nominees. He had less than 1% chance to win according to his wiki. I'd say that no matter how fuzzy the definition of major party is, the Greenbacks weren't that.
He sounds like he was an intelligent person who was concerned with social justice, especially for the native tribes.
Yeah this was in the era of the Know Nothings so that's good
Fair enough, but still, saying Trump is the oldest nominee ever, period, is wrong. He's Number 2(albeit he'd have to last his whole term to beat Biden, similar to his prior age thing with Reagan in 2016) behind Cooper.
