Tell that to Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Harding, and Kennedy.
5 out of 43. A little better than 1 in 9. More than 10% of our presidents have been assassinated (yes, Harding was poisoned).
Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush... uhoh, that's 8 presidents who made it out alive; we're "due". If Obama lives, he will
lower our average. I'm pulling for him, but I don't know.
