Hi, I just heard this on the History Channel and it facinated me.<br /><br />There was a twenty-year presidential death cycle in the United States. From 1840 through 1960, every U.S. president elected in a year ending in a 0 has died in office. Ronald Reagan apparently broke the cycle when he survived a nearly fatal assassination attempt on March 30, 1981.<br /><br />Amazing if not horrific coincidence is it not?<br /><br />Cheers<br />Andrew<br /><br />PS: I hope President Bush will not set the cycle back into motion as he was elected in 2000 was he not?
