old tippeconoe and tyler too!!
The first president of the United States to campaign actively was William Harrison. Harrison was with the Whig party.
It's not clear that any one party became known for this, since the practice evolved over time. But one of the earliest (and most successful) campaign slogans that we know about goes back to 1840, and the Whig party. The Whigs used the slogan "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too" to promote William Henry Harrison, whose nickname came about when he was a military officer who won a great victory at the Tippecanoe River in the Indiana Territory. His running mate was John Tyler, and thus the slogan.
Tippecanoe was William Henry Harrison, who defeated the Indians at the Battle of Tippecanoe. John Tyler was his running mate. This slogan was successful for the Whig Party in the 1840 presidential election.

Tippecanoe and Tyler Too
True, the largest issue in the election of 1844 was expansion. Whig Party representative Henry Clay was opposed to expansion, while democratic nominee James Polk claimed that they had the right to annex any land that was willing. It was that mindset that helped James Polk win the election.

1844 Presidential ElectionThe candidates for the Presidential election of 1844 were; James K. Polk (Democratic) Henry Clay (Whig) and James G. Birney (Liberty). James K. Polk won the election to become the 11th President of the United States. President Polk was in office from March 4, 1845 to March 4, 1849. His Vice President was George M. Dallas.
In the election of 1852 the Whig Party began to be destroyed. The party was divided on whether or not to allow slavery in the new territories.
The most important issue in the election of 1844 was the question of the Texas annexation. The candidate of Whig party, Henry Clay, was against the annexation for the time in being and wrote a letter to the general public explaining his position. In so doing he provoked a growing groundswell of pro-annexation feeling, especially in the South, which allowed the Democratic Party's candidate Polk in raising consensus towards his pro-annexation programme. The keynote of the Democratic campaign was therefore based on exploiting the public mind excitement to erode and overturn the margin of consensus, which at the beginning of the campaign was in favour of Henry Clay.
The Whig Party disappeared following the election of 1854.
it wanted a strong national government.
The 1844 Whig Party Presidential Nominee was Henry Clay. That was the third U.S. presidential election in which he represented a major political party.
The "log cabin and hard cider" campaign was launched by the Whig Party in the 1840 election, as one Democratic personality remarked that Whig candidate William Henry Harrison would be "just as happy with a jug of hard cider to sip in front of his log cabin as serving as President".
