Since Carter is scheduled to be released in 2016, that means he must die before the end of 2014 (or possibly prior to the date 2 years prior to the 2016 release date...not sure which). The series will end once they reach a living President...regardless if there are dead presidents after him. I think the logic is they want a series where it is issued in exact order.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand, I would imagine if Carter was to die prior to release date (but less than 2 years prior) they just might amend the law.
