Bell was born in Mill Creek, a hamlet near Nashville, Tennessee.
Bell then served briefly as Secretary of War under William Henry Harrison and John Tyler in 1841, but then resigned along with the rest of the Cabinet in protest at Tyler's vetoes of Whig bills.
Bell carried Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee, largely as a result of the division of Democratic votes between John C. Breckenridge {Democratic candidate representing the South) and Stephen A. Douglas (representing the Northern United States), but received less than 3% of the vote in Northern states.
