Answer 1

--if they started their political career 100 years apart since there is only a election once every 4 years it greatly increasesthe chance of that coincidence
--there was no Lincoln secretary named Kennedy
--Lincoln didn't want to go to the theater, his secretary didn't tell him not to go. how many times are presidents told they shouldn't go somewhere because it could be dangerous, 10 times a day, the one time something happens it supposed to be a coincidence.
--when a president is on a public appearance 90% of the times he is with his wife.
--Johnson is a really common name.
--if you want to kill someone wouldn't you shoot them in the head.
--Lincoln was in where, how ridiculous. and if kennedy was ïnside"marilyn Monroe he is a necropheliac and a grave digger cause she died on aug 4th 1962 and kennedy was shot on november 22 1963

Answer 2

Lincoln Kennedy Coincidence

Answer 3

After Kennedy died, the Chicago Tribune published a series of articles about these very things. Kennedy was elected, by the way, because the mayor of Chicago, Richard J. Daley "arranged" for every tombstone in Cook County to vote for Kennedy...twice! So Chicago felt robbed when "our" president was killed.

I was 10 years old and very impressionable, so I was amazed by these articles. I, and most other Catholic Schoolboys in Chicago, thought that Jack Kennedy was a living saint, and was crushed by his death. I still get choked up talking about that day.

BTW, though

Lincoln's secretaries were named John Hay (later Secretary of State under McKinley and Roosevelt (TR))
and Robert Nicolet. There was no Kennedy at all.

Answer 4

Lincoln was born in Kentucky. Kennedy was born in Massachusetts.

Lincoln had a beard. Kennedy was clean shaven.

Lincoln won two presidential elections. Kennedy won one.

Lincoln grew up poor. Kennedy grew up rich.

Lincoln was shot with a handgun while sitting in a theatre watching a play. Kennedy was shot with a rifle while riding in a car.

Lincoln's wife was named Mary. Kennedy's wife was named Jacqueline.

Lincoln was killed in Washington, DC. Kennedy was killed in Dallas, Texas.

Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Kennedy also signed many documents.

The assassinations of both men gave rise to ludicrous conspiracy theories.

The coincidences surrounding the two assassinations are equally meaningless in both cases.

Answer 5

You can find coincidences in most events of history. When you add that the names "Lincoln" and "Kennedy" were and are far from rare, it becomes easier.

Also, Marilyn Monroe died in 1962, so unless he was visiting her grave, that's incorrect.

Answer 6

No such thing! God has a plan and a purpose for EVERYTHING that happens! We might only see one piece of the puzzle at a time, but God knows the big picture and He can help us put our life puzzle together if we just let Him help! (and when God does it, it always ends up turning out so much better than we ever could have thought it would have if we did it on out own!)

Answer 7

There is nothing to believe. They were just facts and had nothing to do with each other. Its a number twisting game and sheer Coincidence.
