Attempted to assinate Gerald ford
It was Gerald Ford. On September 22, 1975, Sara Jane Moore raised a .38-caliber revolver and aimed it at U.S. President Gerald Ford in front of the St. Francis Hotel in San Francisco. Luckily for President Ford, Oliver Sipple, a Vietnam veteran who was standing next to Moore in the crowd, noticed the raised gun and moved Moore's arm just in time to save the President. After serving 32 years of her life sentence, Moore, now age 77, was paroled on Monday, December 31, 2007 from the federal prison at Dublin (located outside of Oakland, California).
Two women made two separate attempts on Gerald Ford in the 1970s. Their names were Sara Jane Moore and "Squeaky" Fromme. Squeaky Fromme, if I recall, was associated with Charles Manson. I do not recall which attack came first, but the second was relatively soon after the first-almost a copycat attempt. I hope this helps move you forward.
