∙ 6y agoWilliam R. King from Alabama was Franklin Pierce's Vice President. Willam Rufus DeVane King was Pierce's running mate. He died six weeks after taking office on 18 April 1853, from tuberculosis. He died in Alabama before he ever made it to Washington, so Pierce never had a vice-president. Pierce served the remainder of his term without a Vice President. King was a very close personal friend of James Buchanan who was a strong candidate for the nomination . King was put on the ticket to placate Buchanan supporters.
