How many presidents have been assassin?

Question

How many presidents have been assassin?

Answer 1

Did you mean "assassinated"?  Then there were four: Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, and Kennedy.

Answer 2

I don't think any of them have been assassins.  Chuck Barris from The Gong Show may have been though.

Answer 3

Well Teddy Roosevelt led the famous charge up San Juan Hill, so that might be considered an assassination. It would depend on whether the defenders were expecting the charge. Normally, if they were at least militarily prepared, it wouldn't be called an assassination. So Roosevelt probably was no assassin.

Andrew Jackson, he was kind of a frontiersman at one time wasn't he? It may well be that out West somewhere he happened on someone he didn't like, and kilt 'em. If so he didn't tell of it later though.

George Washington almost certainly shot at a few people, at least during the French and Indian war and as a surveyor, but again, soldiering isn't generally the role of the assassin.

George Bush Sr. may be the most likely assassin. I think to be head of the CIA you have to have done a "job" for the agency at least once in your career. People don't know that of course cause it's a CIA secret.
