Both Lincoln and Kennedy did things that caused them to get assassinated, Lincoln destroyed the country with civil war and Kennedy was a womanizer and possibly had something to do with Marylin Monroe's death. Clinton looked up to Kennedy which should tell you something about him.

Good and evil are a matter of opinion. JFK repeatedly screwed up things whenever he tried to deal with the communists, Lincoln didn't try to get rid of slavery (only to stop its spreading out of the south) until well into the war, and then only as a way of bringing more people to join his fight to restore the Union of the States. And there have been many a good one that wasn't killed, like Lyndon Johnson (who was one of the major components for the Civil Rights movement getting what they were after-equality for blacks).
I see what you are saying but wishing death to anyone, even someone as crazy as Bush or Nixon is wrong. And assuming someone is completely good is naive at best. These things just happen sometimes, we have to make the best of things.

Because evil people don't kill their own kind. Then again, not every man that either came close to or was assassinated was actually a great guy neither.
Both JFK and Lincoln had their faults, but it was their "radical" decisions that did something in the best interest of Liberty that resulted in their assassinations.
It's harder to kill someone that acts like a dictator than it is to kill someone playing by the rules. Furthermore, why would people that look out for the best want to commit evil to remove evil. It doesn't work that way.

Let's see Lincoln started the Civil War and Kennedy started the Vietnam War. Nixon pulled us out of Vietnam and stopped the draft and Bush has not restarted the draft, so guys like you are safe, don't worry
Mr Charles: I remember the Vietnam War,the draft, Nixon and Kennedy very well. Lincoln was before my time. What was it you wished to educate me on?

Because the evil ones can see that they need more protection than JFK. Did Lincoln even have bodyguards back then?
And not all good presidents gets killed. Clinton's still alive.

I don't know, but if you say something on-line about assassinating a current or former president of the United States, the FBI and the Secret Service will start monitoring your computer & telephone.
Title 18, United States Code, chapter 41, section 871.

M D let me educate you. Bush started the Iraq War through a web of lies and didn't Nixon resign after Watergate. That's pathetic to try and show either of these men as good presidents.

It's true Garfield was on his way to being a saint but was taken out after 3 months in office. It's not fair!
however i think he was reincarnated as a cat

Because evil people, when not in power, kill to get in power, where as good people abide by the rules and wait their turn.
