Hannibal Johnson served as vice president for only one term because he was part of a political arrangement during a tumultuous period in U.S. history, specifically the Reconstruction era. His tenure was marked by significant challenges, including political opposition and social unrest. Additionally, the electoral dynamics of the time often favored shifting alliances, making it difficult for vice presidents to secure re-election. After one term, he was unable to maintain the necessary political support to continue in office.
