Abraham Lincoln vs. John F. Kennedy

^{Art: Brian Morris}

In honor Presiden’t Day today, I pledge that I will sleep late, watch plenty of daytime TV… offer all of you conspiracy theorists some remarkable presidential factoids to impress your history teacher with. I found this text document years ago and for some reason kept it. I regret that I cannot credit whoever wrote this thing, so I apologize in advance. At any rate, check out these similarities between these two former United States presidents:

• 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…in the head.

• 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 while Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.

• Both assassins were known by their three names, of which both contain fifteen letters.

• Lincoln was shot at the theater named “Ford,” while Kennedy was shot in a car called a “Lincoln,” which is a Ford.

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

• Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.

• A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland and the week before Kennedy was shot, he was with (in?) Marilyn Monroe.
