Um, but Reagan died long after leaving office. Of natural causes. At the age of 93. While with his loving wife, after a long and successful career in movies and politics. If that's a curse, I'd like to know exactly what the alternative is.
If you include him in the pattern, all you get is a pattern in which every President elected in a year ending in 0 dies. That isn't a curse, that's life. Every President elected from Washington through Nixon has died. Every President elected at any time, and Gerald Ford, will die.
I wish someone would curse
me to the terrible fate of being elected President of the United States in 2044, serving two successful terms with landslide victories, and living another decade in luxurious seclusion with an attractive, loving woman to take care of me in my golden years.
It's a coincidence. The curse has been disproven by Reagan, and soon will be with Bush.
