Does M. Bison want to kill the American presidential candidate?

In Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie (1994) does M. Bison want to have American presidential candidate Ed Pressman killed, or does he want to keep him alive?

His scientist mentions something about this, but which direction were they leaning? Protect Pressman from assassination, or assassinate him?

The idea being that if Pressman gets elected it will either help or hurt Shadaloo.

For shadowlaw's benefit. Killing the President would have the opposite affect. In the movie, Cammy and Ken are hypnotized in the same way.
