Garfield’s Assassination
President James Garfield hadn’t even completed his 4th month of being president when he was shot by Charles J. Guiteau. The president actually survived the shooting, but later died of infection. Many doctors believe that had that occurred today, he would have been treated better and he would even recover completely.

Richard M. Nixon
Richard Nixon was the 37th POTUS and he was great at negotiating foreign affairs. He was in office from 1969 to 1974, bringing an end to the US involvement in Vietnam. He also retrieved POWs, improved US-China relations, and signed the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. He is credited for the enforcement of desegregation, the funding of the Environmental Protection Agency, and the “War on Cancer”. If Watergate did not happen, he might have gone on to do more things for the country.
