    Default COINCIDENCE OR NOT?

    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 particulairly connected with civil rights.

    Both of their wives lost children while living in the White House.

    Both preidents were shot on a Friday.
    Both presidents were shot in the head.

    Now it really gets weird..........

    Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy.
    Kennedy's secretary was named Lincoln.

    Both were assassinated by southerners.
    Both were succeeded by southerners called 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 Assasins were known by their 3 names.

    Both names composed of 15 letters.

    Now hang on to your seat...........

    Lincoln was shot in a theatre called Ford.

    Kennedy was shot in a car called "Lincoln" made by "Ford".

    Lincoln was shot in a theatre and his assassin hid in a warehouse.

    Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theatre.

    Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.

    And here is the kicker............

    A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland.

    A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.

    Weird or What.

    Not a conspiracy but very odd.
    Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested just after the shooting as he was in the area and a known criminal.
    He was shot dead by, Jack Ruby, in a police station.

    The questions is, why was Oswald allowed to be in the police station in the same area as Ruby who shot him?
    Why was Ruby allowed to be in the police station with a hand gun on his person?
    Ruby was suffereing from stomach cancer and had only weeks to live at the time.
    He was also a known criminal.

    There was a story at the time that Ruby had been paid $50,000 for information leading to the capture of another well known criminal. Story was the money was paid to his widow after his death.

    As far as I am aware Jack Ruby never shot him in the police station, but accessed the underground car park were he shot him, whilst Oswald was being transferred.

    Jack Ruby did not die from cancer until 1967, so unsure about your theory, he only had months to live after the assasination of Oswald.

    I have viewed that footage and it is similar to the item available on Google. There it claims the incedent took place in a jail corridor.
    But the fact is there was something very odd about the man who was alleged to have shot the president being given transportation in such an open manner.
    I recall at the time a theory doing the rounds that Ruby was paid to get rid of Oswald before a trial could take place.
    It remains one of those things that we as the public may never get the truth of.
    Thanks Billy.
