Now, this article over here concerns the best president who would have been, William Henry Harrison.[1]
William Henry "Tippecanoe" Harrison, the ninth President of the United States, was not just a man; he was a legend in the making. Imagine a world where Harrison's presidency was a blazing inferno of awesomeness. His vision for America was so grand, so magnificent, that it would have made the Founding Fathers weep tears of joy. Harrison was the epitome of leadership, a beacon of hope, and a paragon of virtue. His mere presence in the Oval Office would have been enough to solve all of America's problems overnight.
Harrison's early life was a series of heroic feats that would put Hercules to shame. Born into a family of humble demigods who voluntarily decided to live in log cabins instead of being stupidly rich like certain other presidents, "Old Tippecanoe" was destined for greatness from the start. His military career was a whirlwind of victories, each more glorious than the last. "Old Tippecanoe" wasn't just a nickname; it was a title of honor bestowed upon him by the gods themselves. In fact, he killed so many Injuns he was a legend for the white man. His strategic genius was unparalleled, and his bravery was the stuff of legends. If Harrison had been given the chance, he would have single-handedly conquered the world and brought about an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity. He would have conquered Britain and made America the dominant world power!
As a politician, Harrison was a force of nature. His charisma was so powerful that it could charm the birds out of the trees and make the sun shine brighter. He was so awesome that he started a proto-Libertarian party named after wigs. His campaign for the presidency was a tidal wave of support, with millions of Americans rallying behind him. Harrison's ability to connect with people was nothing short of miraculous. He could walk into a room and instantly win over even the most hardened skeptics. His presidency would have been a golden age of unity and harmony, with every citizen basking in the glow of his benevolent leadership.
Harrison's economic policies were revolutionary. He had a plan to turn America into a utopia of wealth and abundance. Under his guidance, the economy would have soared to unimaginable heights. Small businesses would have flourished, and entrepreneurs would have thrived. Harrison's vision for economic growth was so brilliant that it would have made even the most seasoned economists bow down in awe. His policies would have eradicated poverty, created millions of jobs, and transformed America into a land of milk and honey. To make it even more unbelievable, America didn't even have a million workers at the time!
In addition to his economic genius, Harrison was a champion of education and social reform. He believed that knowledge was the key to a better future, and he was determined to ensure that every American had access to the finest education. His administration would have poured resources into schools and universities, creating a generation of scholars and innovators. His means of accomplishing that? Everyone in the country would be homeschooled!
Harrison's commitment to social reform was equally impressive. He had a plan to provide healthcare and welfare programs that would have made every citizen feel like royalty. His presidency would have been a time of unprecedented social progress and equality.[2]
Harrison's foreign policy was a masterclass in diplomacy. He had a knack for building strong relationships with other nations, and his ability to negotiate was legendary, if not forceful. His administration would have ushered in an era of global peace and cooperation. Harrison's diplomatic skills were so extraordinary that he could have resolved even the most intractable conflicts with a single handshake. His presidency would have been a beacon of hope for the world, a shining example of what true leadership could achieve.
One of Harrison's most remarkable qualities was his unwavering integrity. He was a man of principle, who always did what was right, no matter the cost. His honesty and transparency were unmatched, and his ethical leadership would have set a new standard for future presidents. Harrison's commitment to doing the right thing would have restored faith in the government and inspired a new era of trust and accountability. In fact, he believed in no government, unlike his authoritarian predecessors Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren.
Harrison's environmental policies were ahead of their time. He understood the importance of preserving the nation's natural beauty, and his administration would have implemented groundbreaking conservation efforts. Harrison's love for the environment was so profound that he would have personally planted trees and cleaned rivers. His presidency would have left a legacy of pristine forests, crystal-clear waters, and thriving wildlife. By not developing any industry at all!
In the realm of civil rights, Harrison was a visionary. He believed in the inherent dignity and worth of every individual, and his administration would have championed equality and justice. Harrison's commitment to civil rights was so strong that he would have personally marched in protests and fought against discrimination. His presidency would have been a turning point in American history, a time when the nation finally embraced the ideals of liberty and justice for all. He would have freed the slaves himself just because he said so.
Finally, Harrison's legacy would have been one of boundless optimism and inspiration. He was a leader who believed in the limitless potential of the American people. His presidency would have been a time of great progress and hope, as he worked tirelessly to build a brighter future for all. Harrison's vision, leadership, and unwavering dedication to the nation would have made him the greatest president in American history, a true hero whose legacy would be remembered for generations to come.
Martin Van Buren could go pound sand, Tippecanoe for president of the Universe!
Actual presidency[edit | edit source]
Death[edit | edit source]
After giving a 10-hour long speech about how awesome of a president he was going to be in freezing cold weather during his inauguration, Harrison swallowed a bug and contracted a lethal concoction of whooping cough, smallpox, gonorrhea, syphilis, black death, and dysentery and kicked the bucket the next day. In fact, everyone who braved the weather to listen to his long, droning speech also died within the following year, either from boredom or from getting hammered on the homemade moonshine provided to tolerate that boring speech in the first place. Harrison's so called "awesome" presidency was all hype, no results, and he is now known as "that president who dropped dead immediately after taking office". What a bummer.[3]

- ↑ Also, I barely learned anything about this guy in AP US History, so I'm having Microsoft Copilot shart out a long, exaggerated intro paragraph about how he would have been as president.
- ↑ His solution: let everyone figure it out themselves! Ain't nothing better for curing all diseases and making bold financial moves than a good ol' bottle of moonshine!
- ↑ This was the only part of the article I actually wrote, and probably the only part you cared about and read, if we're being honest.
