if they can prove that it was accidental and not deliberate then the vice-president would be charged and convicted of manslaughter.   He would also probably have to resign his position.   That means that the new president would be the next in line of constitutional succession which is the Speaker of the House.  He would then appoint a vice-president.

By definition, assassination must end in death, so there have only been four in American history:\n\nLincoln\nGarfield\nMcKinley\nKennedy\n\nReagan was shot, but not assassinated, as he survived the attack.  While there were rumors surrounding Harding's death, it has never been proved that he was assassinated by poisoning.  Harrison's, Taylor's, and Roosevelt's deaths in office were from natural causes.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy was shot in Dallas, Texas... presumably by Lee Harvey Oswald, while riding in the back seat of his convertible car in a parade that if I recall correctly was only being held because he was there... The word spread quickly and shocked many.. A little while later Oswald was apprehended from his hiding place in a theatre a few blocks away.

That's a reasonable conclusion from the available evidence, but since he's quite dead, there's no way to be sure.\n\nBut it appears that the primary targets for the two planes heading to Washington were the White House and the Congress.  The Pentagon appears to have been a secondary, but more recognizable, target.

Lyndon Baines Johnson (August 27, 1908 – January 22, 1973), often referred to as LBJ, was the 36th President of the United States (1963–1969). After serving a long career in the U.S. Congress, Johnson became the thirty-seventh Vice President; in 1963, he succeeded to the presidency following President John F. Kennedy's assassination. He was a major leader of the Democratic Party and as President was responsible for the passage of key civil rights legislation and Medicare, a major "War on Poverty", as well as the acceleration of the war in Vietnam. He was elected in a landslide in 1964 but his reelection bid in 1968 collapsed as his party fell apart, and he announced that he would not seek re-election.

Since you used the word "accidentally", then it IS an accident. I noticed you keep asking about various people being shot by the Vice President. It doesn't matter who they are...get over it!!!! It was an accident. I would rather go hunting with Chaney then riding with Kennedy...you may be too young to remember that a woman drowned to death while T. Kennedy was driving under the influence of alochol and HE didn't report it til days later.....look it up....Chappaquidick, Mass...
