I guess you mean "we" as in "if we were the VP"? 'Cause as it stands, the NPCs aren't going to "let" the President die, and Dr. Krause has no particular reason to assassinate him as long as he's getting what he wants.
If the PCs do nothing, Krause gets his army, (although the US has some severe problems with its steel supply for a while) and the President is released, unharmed.
Then the question is, what does Krause *do* with his metal army of 5[3] armored robots? All the other inventions that were supposed to make war pointless or too dangerous to contemplate never worked, from the crossbow to the airplane. Students of history might be justified in thinking that these metal men will be no different...
