No. I'm sure if we have a president who rules like a tyrant, he'd be taking care of....

Successful assassinations: Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Kennedy.

Attempted, but failed: Pretty much every President since World War II.

Somewhere along the line, i think it will happen.

We are living in an increasingly violent society where more often people are happy to use violence to solve their problems.

Doesn't matter how much security you have, if someone wants you, they will get you.

Sooner or later, someone is gonna try, and all it takes is bad luck on someone part for them to succeed

There were quite a few before WW2. Someone tried to assassinate Teddy Roosevelt (guess they couldn't handle how bad ass he was). He was shot and refused to go to the hospital until he finish his speech.

We should resurrect Teddy Roosevelt and make him VP. That was honestly the best thing to come out of the McKinley administration.

McKinley's one of my favorite presidents, so don't hate. Was just as impressive of a leader as TR was, just without the star power.

I think you could certainly make a case for that the first time around, but the second time i think Bush was actually quite popular post-9/11 and Kerry didn't state his case well enough.

Bush won both elections legitimately.. I am sick of this claim of how he stole the election of 2000.. Popular vote is not the most important thing, electoral votes is.. If we must blame some one, blame the counters or the courts..

it wouldnt really matter the president has no real ability to do anything other than talk with congress and ask them to do things, but they don't actually have to do them.
