Whig agenda: 1.) New Bank of the U.S. and
improve infrastructure. 2.) High tariffs
President Harrison dies from pneumonia.
Tyler vetoed the new bank charter (DRAMA!!)
#Nohedidnt
Whigs kick Tyler out of their party (his Cabinet
resigns)…Tyler does little as President
Lesson learned, don’t p-off your base.

Van Buren: #8: Was Jackson’s VP; left to clean up
Jackson’s economic mess (Canceling the charter of the
Bank of The United States); dealt with 2 economic panics
(1837 and 1839); chose a laissez faire approach.
Harrison: #9: anyone could have won against Van Buren
(**sorry Marty, but it’s true); goals: 1.) recharter the bank
2.) build up infrastructure, 3.) higher tariffs…he dies (31
days)
Tyler: #10: First person to take over for a president that
died…refuses to name a new VP; gets kicked out of his
own party…**Can you say unpopular 
