Garfield was shot and killed by a disappointed office seeker, who wanted a job as ambassador, which was one of the positions appointed by the President. He blamed Garfield for his lack of appointment. One might say that Garfield was a victim of the spoils system. (In truth, the position that Garfield's assassin wanted, was not made a civil service job, but is still subject to appointment by the President. )
