Which four presidents of the United States were assassinated?

Gunslinger

Presidents Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and Kennedy were murdered while in office. There were other attempts, the latest being attempts on the lives of Presidents Truman, Ford and Reagan. I've always thought the term 'assassinated' lends a sort of weird, psychological dignity to what is nothing more than a base, obscene criminal act - murder. Apr 04 00, 10:38 AM

There have been eighteen attempts to kill sitting and former United States Presidents and Presidents-Elect. Four attempts on sitting Presidents have succeeded; the 16th, 20th, 25th and 35th US Presidents were all assassinated in office, and two others were injured. Successful assassinations: 1 -- Abraham Lincoln 2 -- James A. Garfield 3 -- William McKinley 4 -- John F. Kennedy http://www.presidentsusa.net/assassinations.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._Presidential_assassination_attempts Jan 12 08, 10:59 AM

Other than the four assassinated US presidents, who were the chief executives who died in office? John F. Kennedy was born in 1917. He became president of the United States in 1961. When he was assassinated, he was 46 years old and he had been in power for two years. The sum of these numbers is 3,926. Nikita Khrushchev was born in 1894. He became premier of the USSR in 1958. When Kennedy was assassinated he was 69 years old and had been in power for five years. The sum of these numbers is 3,926. Charles de Gaulle was born in 1890. He became president of France in 1958. When Kennedy died, de Gaulle was 73 years old and had been president for five years. The sum of these four numbers is also 3,926. How can this astonishing coincidence be explained? Where is the only place in the United States where you can be in four states at once? Who were the second winners of the NBA in the United States?
