<p>I even looked up many of those things this site claims and it was in fact valid. And once you see the site you'll realize it was definitely not a coincidence.</p>
<p>notice you'll see everything as far as the 2 men's lives (relationships, presidency, family, assasination, etc) are identical. everything is exactly identical.</p>
<p>whats even more suspicious is this:</p>
<p>Lincoln and Kennedy both had brothers named Robert and Edward
Lincoln and Kennedy both lost a son and a sister while president
Lincoln's son married "Mary Eunice Harlan" while Kennedy had a sister named Eunice Marry Kennedy</p>
<p>Lincoln was shot in Ford's Theater
Kennedy was shot in a Ford Lincoln car</p>
<p>Lincoln died with his wife by his side (shot in the head) - she however was not injured.
Kennedy died with is wife by his side (shot in the head) - she however was not injured.</p>
<p>dude.....i'm stoked..</p>
<p>could it actually be God repeating Lincoln and not a reincarnation?</p>
<p>It's pretty weird, but I think it's just coincidence.
And some of the things that site lists as "connections" are just statements of obvious fact. For instance, both Lincoln and Kennedy "recieved the best medical treatment available" after being shot. Well...they were the PRESIDENT. lol. Or the fact that both their VPs were "large men." Not so unusual:)</p>
<p>But you have to wonder how many differences there are between these two men that the website did not mention.
I personally think it's a coincidence</p>
<p>"Lincoln was shot in Ford's Theater
Kennedy was shot in a Ford Lincoln car"</p>
<p>AHAHA.. Ford Lincoln car? Haha.. these are all just a bunch of events forced to fit. We could probably do this with the lives of any two persons.</p>
<p>Like I said before, what about all the differences?
Kennedy was a Democrat, Lincoln was a Republican. Kennedy was in his 40s when he died, Lincoln was in his 50s. Kennedy served 1 term, Lincoln served 2.</p>
<p>Many presidents have studied law and served in the military, and I'm sure that many also quote from the Bible and Shakespeare, considering that all of the presidents to date have been religious. French is a relatively common language in North America, so it's really no surprise that they both were able to speak the language. If, say, they both spoke Ukrainian or something, then that would be unusual.</p>
<p>With regards to "sitting next to his wife" when the President makes a public appearance, it's usually with his wife, the First Lady, is it not? Even if it is unusual for the First Lady to appear, they are married after all, so what is so unusual about them sitting together?</p>
<p>It's sort of like with psychics; people remember the 1 time they guessed right, but not all the times they were wrong. With this, people remember the few similarities between the two presidents, but not all of the differences.</p>
<p>nice, you guys are pretty good at pointing out the differences as well.</p>
<p>but aren't they supposed to have at least some in order for them to be their onw person? but remember that they have much more commonalities than differences which is very concerning.</p>
<p>i just think the way these 2 died with their wives by their side is really weird. their wives weren't even touched during their deaths and they were 1 cm away from them.</p>
<p>booth was detained by an officer named baker-
oswalrd was detained by an office named baker</p>
<p>i think this one would chage your mind:</p>
<p>after lincoln's funeral, his family moved to Georgetown at 3014 N Street</p>
<p>after kennedys funeral, his family moved to Georgetown at 3017 N Street</p>
<p>well i'm not sure about the data, but can u prove that only a few politicians lived in Georgetown during Lincoln's era and Kennedy's era. Also why did they move to that place? Also who were the neighbors? How was the financial condition of both of their families and how was the estate prices in Georgetown in each era?</p>
<p>I think these are just a few questions to answer before concluding that this is a coincidence.(this is just about the last one)</p>
<p>Old news. :p It still is really interesting, though. It's kinda like the "every 20 years" theory regarding assassinations and assassination attempts.</p>

<p>"The coincidences are easily explained as the simple product of mere chance. It's not difficult to find patterns and similarities between any two marginally-related sets of data, and coincidences similar in number and kind can be (and have been) found between many different pairs of Presidents. Our tendency to seek out patterns wherever we can stems from our desire to make sense of our world; to maintain a feeling that our universe is orderly and can be understood. In this specific case two of our most beloved Presidents were murdered for reasons that make little or no sense to many of us, and by finding patterns in their deaths we also hope to find a larger cosmic "something" that seemingly provides some reassuring (if indefinite) rhyme or reason why these great men were prematurely snatched from our mortal sphere."</p>
