BET YOU DIDNT KNOW: Republicans nominated William Wheeler in 1876 to run for Vice President on the ticket headed by Rutherford B. Hayes. Wheeler accepted the nomination, but refused to campaign. Literally. Hayes and Wheeler won the election in what history regards as Americas first stolen presidential election. Wheeler served as VP all four years of Hayes presidential term, but during that time, he demonstrated little more activity or energy than he did in the campaign.
