William Henry Harrison should have ate it at Tippecanoe but at least he corrected his misstep during his first month in office

Yeah, but that resulted in John Tyler who was a pro-slavery democrat in all but name. Can't really win.
It's easy to pick on "the levels of bad", when you're not the one one enslaved in a priaon, but writing behind a screen.
Just a little reminder that governments have killed more people than any other entity and it isn't even close. You could try to point at religion - and that history is also fucked - but even if you exclude "holy wars" waged by religious government leaders, religious killing still doesn't add up to what has been done by governments where religion wasn't really a factor. The proletariat must not be disarmed. You might trust your current government, but give it a generation (or even an election) and things could be very different.
