File:Curse of Tippecanoe

The term Curse of Tippecanoe (also known as Tecumseh's curse, the presidential curse, zero-year curse, or the twenty-year curse) is sometimes used to describe the pattern where from 1840 to 1960 each American President who had won election in a year ending in zero (such as 1880 or 1900) died in office. It was "broken" by Ronald Reagan, who yet was badly wounded in a March, 1981 shooting.
