Default Strange Lincoln and Kennedy coincidences

This is odd. Very creepy. Kinda along the lines of the coincidences between when the last two Popes were in in history. Like Liverpool FC winning the European cup, Prince Charles getting married etc. Anyway, on with the coincidences…

Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.

Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.

Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.

Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head.

Now it gets really weird.

Lincoln’s secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy’s Secretary was named Lincoln.

Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.

Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.

John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.

Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.

Now hang on to your seat.

Lincoln was shot at the theater named ‘Ford.’
Kennedy was shot in a car called ‘Lincoln’ made by ‘Ford.’

Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse.
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater.

Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.

And here’s the kicker…

A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.

The warehouse part of course only works if you agree that that was the ONLY place he was shot from (the lone gunmen, magic bullet theory)

But the other stuff is intriguing (sp).

Didn't they have a mathematical version of this one about 9/11 including the flight numbers etc. and dates?

I watched a film about Kennedy's murder in History at school, it was really interesting because it talked about all the different possibilities and things that happened. Shame I was too busy writing on my pencil case and gossipping with my friends to pay too much attention! I wish I could watch it again now!

It's more political than you think.

According to a liberal news site called prorev.org,
both Lincoln and Kennedy wanted the federal government
to take control the (misnamed) Federal Reserve -- which is
in fact a privately owned bank.

That was not a typo. According to a book called The Secret World
of Money
, your Federal Reserve in America is owned by a consortium
of financiers including Solomon Bros.

Both Lincoln and Kennedy were assassinated.
