John Tyler, who was U. S. Vice President under President William Henry Harrison, became President when President Harrison died in 1841. Before the ratification of the 25th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution in February, 1967, vacancies in the Office of the Vice President were not filled until the next Inauguration Day, which in this case was March 4, 1845. In 1844, the Whig Party nominated Henry Clay as their Presidential candidate for that year's election, so President Tyler was not reelected.
