Taylor, and I highly doubt he'll end up dying midway this time and Birney would just end up causing a  huge divide maybe even starting the Civil War earlier.

Yes but Birney is no Lincoln, and lacks the same pull Taylor has.

Birney and Liberty would be steamrolled by Congress and it would lead to gridlock, or the Union could crumble.

But Taylor's record was hands down the strongest under the circumstances, why not vote for that?
