In all presidential campaigns there are hundreds of people who help the winning candidate succeed. Andrew Jackson was probably the most famous Polk supporter in 1844. Franklin Pierce helped him carry NH and was offered a position in Polk's cabinet.

The Liberty Party was the third party of the day. Their candidate James G. Birney got the support of a small northern group of antislavery Whigs, costing Henry Clay the election.

1. James K. Polk is a much underrated president who fulfilled all of his campaign promises to an extent. He was a major benefactor to the nation, especially in land gain. This includes the Annexation of Texas, lands gained from the Mexican-American War, Oregon Territory and even tried to buy Cuba from Spain. The Mexican-American War was a huge success to his administration, with quick victories the more superior American army led the largest seaborne invasion and marched into and sacked Mexico City. Polk on the domestic side reduced tariffs and reestablished the Independent Treasury System. Every President has cons to his term and Polk did not receive the "54-40 parallel as intended but instead got the "49th. Polk was an advocate of slavery and was ridiculed for it yet in one term he completed a lot more good than harm.
