Best Answer

John Tyler was the Whig Party's vice presidential nominee in 1840. He won the election that fall, taking office as vice president late the following winter then as president a month later in the early spring. Based on the bills he signed and the bills he vetoed, the Whig Party wanted nothing more to do with him and expelled him from the party in September of the same year he took office.
