  • 1840年,美国陆军将领、前俄亥俄州联邦参议员威廉·亨利·哈里森在总统大选中战胜在任总统、民主党人马丁·范布伦成为第九任美国总统。哈里森的竞选活动开辟美国政治新天地,他还是史上首位当上总统的辉格党人,但上任一个月后就因病去世,竞选搭档约翰·泰勒继任后抛弃辉格党章程,后被开除出党。 哈里森1773年生于富裕家庭,他尚未成年便投身军旅生涯,随后再利用父亲本杰明·哈里森五世的人脉在边境出任公职。担任印第安纳领地总督十年后,哈里森回归部队,并在蒂珀卡努战役和1812年战争等众多战事中以抗击美洲原住民和英国人扬名,并以1813年的击败印第安人和英国联军。战争结束后他当上俄亥俄州国会议员,此后二十余年间出任各种公职。1836年,哈里森与其他辉格党候选人一起争夺总统宝座,最终虽不敌范布伦位居第二,但他没有气馁,四年后卷土重来一雪前耻。 在这样公众娱乐活动匮乏的年代,狂欢节般竞选活动对选民的号召力可想而知,辉格党候选人最终无论普选票还是选举人票都轻取对手。哈里森于1841年3月宣誓就职,但一个月后便病逝,是史上首位未完成任期的美国总统。历史学家对哈里森的竞选成功看法不一,有些认为其中过于强调情感而非理智,不值得提倡;也有些指出活动中首创的许多竞选手段对后世总统大选影响举足轻重。此外还有观点认为,辉格党的非正式竞选口号“蒂珀卡努与泰勒都来了”是美国历史上最富盛名的总统竞选口号。 (zh)
