Murder Carlson in NCR is a quest in Fallout 2.

Walkthrough

Second of John Bishop assignments, and a key step on the road to becoming a made man of the family, is the assassination of Vice President Carlson in NCR. This frail but powerful man resides in a high security compound within the Congress district of NCR. There are two obstacles to overcome, one, there is a forcefield that blocks your way, two, the area is crawling with members of the police force.

A plan

There are three ways of getting inside the compound:

1. Steal a presidential A+ pass from Gunther in the Hall of Congress and show it to the cop standing guard at the compound gate
2. Talk to Merk, who provided you didn't annoy him and retrieved Dr Henry's papers, will arrange a job interview for you for $50.
3. Use Repair on the forcefield emitter. Of couse, this counts as unauthorized access and you will have to fight everyone on the map.

Regardless, once inside it's a classic hit, there are no requirements as to the way the vicepresident has to die - he just has to end up irreversibly dead.
