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

The names Lincoln and Kennedy each contain seven letters.

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 were shot in the head.

Here is an interesting one...

Kennedy's secretary was named Lincoln.

Both were assassinated by southerners.

Both were succeeded by southerners.

Both successors were 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

Both assassins were known by three names.

Both names contain fifteen letters.

Booth ran from the theater and was caught in a warehouse.

And last but not least...

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

A week before Kennedy was shot; he was in Marilyn Monroe.

Well, some of the coincidences are just wrong, too.

and both got murdered because of introducing non-interest bearing Greenbucks into the economy to thwart the efforts of the international banking elite from taking over control of all commerce, fuel and food industries... Lincoln and Kennedy failed.

and the very interesting proof of this...

If you really look into it, I bet I have some amazing connections with Lincoln as well.

First off, his name was Abraham, and my name isn't, but I read about some guy in the bible named Abraham. And I read that part on a Friday (the day Lincoln was shot!!!)

Lincoln was shot in the head and as a baby, I was dropped on my head.

Abraham Lincoln was around 6'6" tall and wore a top hat and if I wore a big enough top hat, I could look 6'6" tall.

Lincoln was shot in Ford's Theater, and I once drove a Ford to a movie theater.

Lincoln was shot by a southerner and I have been to Florida once.

Lincoln was the 16th president, and I am 16 years old.

Lincoln has 7 letters in it and if you take the initial of my first name and add it to my last, it equals 7.
