    Default Scary President Comparison...

    John F. Kennedy vs. Abraham Lincoln
    These two Presidents have some striking similarities. You can't read this without saying "WOW, this is really scary."

    Think about this...

    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 a child while living in the White House.

    Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
    Both were shot in the head. Lincoln was killed in Ford's Theatre and Kennedy was killed while riding in a Lincoln.

    Here is an interesting one...
    Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy.
    Kennedy's secretary was named Lincoln.

    Both were assassinated by Southerners.
    Both were succeeded by Southerens.

    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 in 1939.

    Both assassins were known by their three names.
    Both names compromise fifteen letters.

    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.

    Lincoln was often found in Monroe, Maryland.
    Kennedy was often found with Marilyn Monroe.

    Here are a few more:

    Both men were killed by a bullet that entered the head from behind.

    The first name of Lincoln's private secretary was John, the last name of Kennedy's private secretary was Lincoln.

    Both assassins were Southerners who held extremist views.

    Both assassins were murdered before they could be brought to trial.

    A Licoln staffer Miss Kennedy told him not to go to the Theater. A Kennedy staffer Miss Lincoln, told him not to go to Dallas.


    Later, QD.

    Yes Very old..lol My grandpa owned a Plumbing supply store in Whichita Falls, his delivery truck guy who was coming from Dallas asked him (the day JFK got shot) "Did they catch the guy running with the gun" Weird thing..the guy SAW him running, bc the truck had no radio or any other way of knowing that... Plus im a JFK geek i got alot of the old school LIFE magazines with him on the cover, esp the one that came out in Dec (The first issue after he was killed with frame by frame of the motorcade... Sadly that all coudla been prevented if John chose not to have his bullet proof bubble removed but he "Wanted to be with his ppl" Ive actually met some SS guys that were there that day.

    I remember reading that in 6th grade, if not longer ago.

    It's still really interesting.

    Did anyone see the discovery channel thing where they talked about the JFK assassination?
