Try using DyanamicResource instead of StaticResource

<Style x:Key="GenericButtonStyle" TargetType="Button">
        <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="Padding" Value="{DynamicResource GenericButtonStylePadding}"/>
   </Style>

Edit: You can test one thing. Add another constant to Constant.XAML

<Brush x:Key="BGBrush">Black</Brush>

Try to use it in your ButtonStyle.XAML

<Style x:Key="GenericButtonStyle" TargetType="Button">
        <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="Width" Value="200"></Setter>
        <Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource BGBrush}"></Setter>
    </Style>

See if button background changes to Black. If color is changing then try something else than Thickness.
