The slogan was part of a song. Tippecanoe was a battle that was led by Governor William Harrison. Harrison ran for president with John Tyler as vice president. So the campaign song referred to Harrison by the battle he helped win against the Native Americans, while mentioning his running mate and denigrating Martin Van Buren.

Anyway, Harrison became the 9th US president. Here is the first verse and chorus of the song:

Tip and Ty

What's the cause of this

commotion, motion, motion,

Our country through?

It is the ball a-rolling on

For Tippecanoe and Tyler too.

For Tippecanoe and Tyler too.

And with them we'll beat little Van, Van, Van,

Van is a used up man.

And with them we'll beat little Van.

I doubt that he wrote it. Tyler was his running mate and Harrison was famous for his victory at the Battle of Tippecanoe (Indiana) against the Indians.

When willian h Harrison ran for president why did he use the slogan tippecanoe and tyler too?

Harrison was famous for his victory at Tippecanoe - it was a battle against a British financed Indian uprising that was a big threat to western frontier settlers- Harrison's victory not only ended that threat but pretty much opened ended the Biritish and Indian threat in the NW frontier area. Tyler was Harrison's running mate. I am not sure how much input or choice Harrison had about the slogan.


What political party pioneered the use of slogans in political campaigns?

It's not clear that any one party became known for this, since the practice evolved over time. But one of the earliest (and most successful) campaign slogans that we know about goes back to 1840, and the Whig party. The Whigs used the slogan "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too" to promote William Henry Harrison, whose nickname came about when he was a military officer who won a great victory at the Tippecanoe River in the Indiana Territory. His running mate was John Tyler, and thus the slogan.
