^That's the point. In reality, with the gun/bullets Clarke was using and the distance she was from Lincoln and Whitman, that was a fatal shot for Lincoln and, even if it didn't kill him, it still would not have ended up going through him and killing Whitman. The statistical probability is it was an impossible shot that only a literal miracle/luck/fate would have saved him (and killed only Whitman).
