Cool! I see Squeaky got Bobby.
Ah, I see you went with Corder.
Yep and yep. ITTL, Corder's attack on the White House goes off more successfully, so he not only kills the president, but also the VP, thus leaving the Speaker of the House, Tom Foley, as president.
THE KENNEDY CURSE, EXTENDED, PART EIGHT
Name: John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr.
Date of Birth: November 25, 1960
Date of Death: July 16, 1999 (age 38)
Political Party: Democratic
Cause of Death: Plane crash off of Martha's Vineyard
List of Offices Held:
President of the United States (January 20, 1997 - July 16, 1999)
Notes:
- Is the youngest person to ever be elected president in U.S. history. He declared his campaign on Nov. 25, 1995, which was his 35th birthday. Despite being a late runner to the race, his massive celebrity/political status, plus the fact that President Foley had declined to run for another term, helped edge out his victory against the Jack Kemp/Pete Wilson ticket. Was elected president just days before his 36th birthday, and sworn in two months after turning 36.
- He along with First Lady Carolyn Bessette Kennedy were killed in a plane crash while flying to a family wedding. Instead of Air Force One, they used a private plane to fly, which sparked massive controversy and concern after the event.

The Kennedy Curse in which every (or nearly) are killed or died under mysterious circumstances.
Yeah I know of The KC, I was just wondering why SGO killed them all off via assassination.
Not a critique or to be rude.
Don't feel bad, it's totally fine. I had a feeling someone would question the repetitive amount of assassinations anyways.
