From what I remember, Harrison was born in Charles County Virginia 1773, but he ran as a member of the Whig Party against Democrat Martin Van Buren for the Presidency of the United States.
When he died, the Whig party died with him.
My question for him would be
"As the Secretary of the Northwest Territory and a slave holder yourself, why did you petition to exempt slavery in the Indiana Territory?"
My 2nd question for him would be "Do you like your cider at room temperature, or chilled?"

I would like to ask him about Indiana too.
I answered this before I had my coffee. I'm looking at it now and realizing that even though he was born in Virginia... it was an English colony. Oops. mybad!

In his inaugural address Harrison argued that the lack of a one term limit on the presidency was a gap in the constitution and that he would fight to get one passed. More than a hundred years later an amendment was finally passed but it allowed two terms. I would ask his opinion of a two term limit versus a one term limit, and if he would still advocate the latter.
