Fillmore appointed Brigham Young as the first governor of the Utah Territory in 1850.[15] In gratitude for creating the Utah Territory in 1850 and appointing Brigham Young as governor, Young named the territorial capital “Fillmore” and the surrounding county “Millard”.

WOW had no idea about THIS little nugget...

OR this:
Taylor and Fillmore disagreed on the slavery issue in the new western territories taken from Mexico in the Mexican–American War. Taylor wanted the new states to be free states, while Fillmore supported slavery in those states to appease the South. In his own words: “God knows that I detest slavery, but it is an existing evil ... and we must endure it and give it such protection as is guaranteed by the Constitution.”

I am sure mitt will keep supporting those entitlement programs that are a form of slavery as Mitt will say it is “protected by the constitution” in much the same way Millard Fillmore will.
