Being the first one to die in office, Harrison supposedly established a curse that all presidents elected to a year ending in zero would die or be assassinated. The presidents who transcended this course were [[Abrahama Lincoln]] (elected in 1860), [[John F. Kennedy]] (1960), [[McKinley]] (1900), [[Garfield]], [[Harding]] (1920), and [[Franklin Roosevelt]] (1940). [[Ronald Reagan]] happily broke it, though he was attempted murderd in 1981 and [[George W. Bush]]. | Being the first one to die in office, Harrison supposedly established a curse that all presidents elected to a year ending in zero would die or be assassinated.
