    US President - who cares, he is a dead man

    Lest we forget, the US Presidents who get elected in a year ending with "0" are under a curse. They will die in office. The only recent exception to this rule was Reagan, who survived being shot in an assassination attempt.

    1840 William H Harrison
    1860 Abraham Lincoln
    1880 James Garfield
    1900 William McKinley
    1920 Warren Harding
    1940 Franklin D Roosevelt
    1960 John F Kennedy
    1980 Ronald Reagan

    These guys all died in office as US President, except for Reagan. Once they sort out who is going to be the elected sucker for 2000, we'll know which name to add to this list.

    Ooh ooh! In that case, lemme change my vote to Gore! I'd be doing the world a favor!

    Oops, did I say that out loud? I hope the NSA isn't listening.

            eeeewwww scary!

            but the topic of this thread is just about how i feel by now..... who cares!!!!!

            every damn day we hear that now they will count these and these votes and now they won´t. Can´t you just flip for it or something?

              The FULL legend behind that is an old Native American/Indian curse. I don't remember all the details, but some medicine man from a tribe that was being hunted down by the US government (aren't we nice people) cursed the presidency. As legend goes he said that every twenty years (year ends in a zero) the president would die as vengence for what they did to the Indians.

              Pretty cool, eh?

              On the uncool side...if you want to see holocaust, look at the numbers of Native American tribes and peoples wiped out by Europeans. Starting with the Spanish through US history. Quite disturbing.

                please, no supersticion (SP?)!

                How many US presidents have been murdered in a percentage of all the presidents?

                Is that percentage near the 10% ?

                ok ok, I admit that logic is flawed. But I am willing to take a bet on that George W. Bush (well,it's 99,9999% certain he will be the next president by now), will not be murdered while he is president of the United States.

                  Half of the Presidents Thundrchez listed were not assassinated. I believe Harrison, Harding, and Roosevelt died of natural causes while in office. Reagan, of course, is still alive.

                    although one could argue, based on Descartes' axiom "I think, therefore I am" that since Reagan had long since ceased to realize he was alive by the time he left office, he therefore was not. QED.

                      Reagan falls under the 'attempted assasination' category. He ALMOST died...

                      You foget, if Gore WHERE pres and DID die, we be stuck with that moron Liberman..

                          Should've used a larger calibre gun. (preferably mounted on Abrams :0) )
                          Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject.
