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 theatre named 'Ford.' Kennedy was shot in a car called ' Lincoln' made by 'Ford.'

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

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.
Feel free to pick holes in that / verify it.

According to Wikklepedia it's all correct, apart from the Theatre being called 'Fords', rather than Ford....

Should read:

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

I had a little plaque with all that stuff on it when i was a kid. It had a little profile of Kennedy etched into it so he was facing Lincoln. Pretty cool.

True. This particular one left out some of the debunked "coincidences", but what's posted here seems to be all true.

Only 15 years ago? You are soooooooooooo far behind, that's like 28 and a bit years after he got shot.

Am I claiming this is new information? No.

Put your e-penis away and fuck off.

Oh my God. I knew it all along...!

So what, really? There's nothing cool about this, just a bunch of similiarities. Most conspiracies have some sort of omen about them, this is just dumb. Should be put on a joke database.

Hell, I'll still put it on a poster and hang it up at school .
