B Correct answer
Explanation

The Tecumseh Curse (also called Curse of Tippecanoe or Zero-Year Curse) allegedly caused presidents elected in 1840-1960 to die in office, but it ended with Ronald Reagan (elected 1980) who survived. Reagan, Franklin Roosevelt (1940), and later presidents broke the pattern. The claim 'up to this very day' and 'every 20 years' makes the statement false.
