Some presidential history. Look what happens when a President gets elected in a year with a "0" at the end. Also notice it goes in increments of 20 years. 1840: William Henry Harrison (died in office) 1860: Abraham Lincoln (assassinated) 1880: James A. Garfield (assassinated) 1900: William McKinley (assassinated) 1920: Warren G. Harding (died in office) 1940: Franklin D. Roosevelt (dies in office) 1960: John F. Kennedy (assassinated) 1980: Ronald Reagan (survived assassination attempt) 2000: George W. Bush ???????????? And to think that we had two guys fighting it out in the courts to be the one elected in 2000. You might also be interested in this. Have a history teacher explain this----- if they can. Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both wives lost their children while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. Both Presidents were shot in the head. Now it gets really weird. Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln. Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson. Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who! succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. John Wilke s Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939. Both assassins were known by their three names. Both names are composed of fifteen letters. Now hang on to your seat. Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.' Kennedy was shot in a car called 'Lincoln' made by 'Ford.' Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse. Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater. Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials. And here's the kicker... A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe. Creepy huh? Hey, this is one history lesson people don't mind reading.
Where do you get this stuff. Too many conikydinks for me. bush elected in 2000, hmmmm, wonder what his secretary's name is? We used to say"what goes around, comes around" (still do actually). Why didn't that bastard do something about the Johnson guy (decapitated) in Saudi Arabia? He just said, yeah, we really have to get on those terrorist's arses, oh and by the way, sorry about that, Johnson family. AAAAARRRRGH!
That was good Sam I am.I've read those before,years ago,and it still blows me away.Strange universe we live in kids.Smoke it if ya got it.
That's called the "Zero Curse." It's more urban legend than fact, and was "broken" in 1981 when Ronald Reagan, elected in 1980, survived an assassination attempt. But, there's always hope that it was only a temporary lapse in voodoo, and the person elected in 2000 will get what they deserve... Anyway, the legend is that it was a curse cast on William Harrison by either Tecumseh or his brother "The Prophet." He predicted that Harrison would die in office, and every 20 years another Prez would follow suit. And they did, from 1840 until 1980... There are also some other origins. It's a really creepy thing... it makes me just a little bit more unsure about the "monster in my closet." Here are some links that might help.

Yeah, is it me, or does he say the same thing everytime? “America will not retreat. America will not be intimidated by these kinds of extremist thugs." Either that or i'm having de javu'
