Creepy History Lesson!
 

Have a history teacher explain this----- if they can.

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 in Marilyn Monroe. :winkwink:

Creepy huh? :pimp

Crazy is all that true?

Looks like some of it is true anyway:

My brain is starting to hurt

A month before Lincoln was assassinated he was in Monroe, Maryland.
A month before Kennedy was assassinated he was in Marilyn Monroe.

This is a latter-day addition to the list and nothing more than a bit of salacious humor. Even as a humorous coincidence it fails the test, as Marilyn Monroe died well over a year before Kennedy's assassination. :pimp

that is amazing! wow! love that shit!

All 100% True except the last thing!:pimp

freaky......:eek7

I have a different history

That's intresting :)

I wanna be in Marilyn Monroe.

Amazing...how come...

Lincoln was not interested in civil rights . . he was working on a plan to repatriate the blacks when he was shot

Being repatriated is better than being a slave! so no! you are wrong! he was interested in Civil rights, as was kennedy!:2 cents:

Very creepy if it is true.
Looks like they are one and the same person.

Old news, but still cool

I'am now smarter.

Interesting facts. And the last one made my day. :)
