Best Answer

He presided over the first modern campaign, which included political rallies in the form of rolling a ball containing the slogans of the Whig Party party platform along with the image of a William Henry Harrison living in a log cabin as a frontier's man, hence the slogan 'keep the ball rolling.' He was also a hero to many Americans for leading American soldiers against Native Americans during his time as territorial governor of Indiana, and his victory over the Indian warrior chief Tecumseh during the Battle of Tippecanoe and the Battle of the Thames.
