The President, nearing the end of his first term, was unhappy with his Vice President and wanted a new running mate for the next election. He had his eye on a young, smart governor from Wyoming, who had impressed him with his sharp mind and unique qualities. They quickly built a strong connection, and the President invited him to play golf at a private course to discuss the idea further.

During their game, tragedy struck. Four armed men suddenly attacked, pulling up in a truck and opening fire. In the chaos, the President was shot and killed. The governor, hit by a bullet in his hand, was gravely wounded. Another close friend of the President, also a governor, was killed as well.

Though badly hurt, the governor survived thanks to a brave Secret Service agent who quickly applied a tourniquet, stopping the governor from bleeding to death. But his ordeal wasn't over yet-he had lost so much blood that doctors worried about brain damage. Before he could assume any higher office, he had to undergo thorough medical tests to ensure he was still fit to lead.

After several evaluations, the doctors concluded that the governor had recovered fully, with no lasting effects from his injury. The nation, still in shock from the President's death, turned to the young governor as a symbol of hope. His survival and strength during the crisis won over the public.

In a twist of fate, the governor who had been considered for Vice President now became the President himself, leading the country through one of its darkest times.
