Буш и Гор - борятся за свою смерть???

Приветствие всем!

Извиняйте, если это уже было на форуме. Однако я для себя только что открыл. Называется "Tecumseh’s Curse", индейский вождь проклял американцев (письменно задокументировано) в 1811 после большого сражения, что каждый президент США избранный в год оканчивающийся на 0 умрет в офисе. И мерли будь здоров - выжил только Рейган, но на него было покушение тоже. Следующий будет тот, кто победит сейчас в 2000.

=========================
Tecumseh’s Curse
After the historical battle of Tippecanoe in 1811, legend has it that the Shawnee Indian Chief, Tecumseh, sent General William Henry Harrison, via released prisoners, a message… a prophecy that history justifiably labeled, 'Tecumseh's Curse':

"'Harrison will not win this year to be the Great Chief. But he may win next year. If he does...He will not finish his term. He will die in his office.' 'No president has ever died in office,' declared a visitor. 'But Harrison will die I tell you. And when he dies you will remember my brother Tecumseh's death. You think that I have lost my powers. I who caused the sun to darken and Red Men to give up firewater. But I tell you Harrison will die. And after him, every Great Chief chosen every 20 years thereafter will die. And when each one dies, let everyone remember the death of our people.'"
