Well, both men were way more similar than different.
Abraham Lincoln was elected to congress in 1846, JFK was elected to congress in 1946. A.L became president in 1860, JFK became president in 1960. Both names Kennedy and Lincoln have 7 letters in them.
Both men were assassinated by southerners, on a Friday, and next to there wives. In both assassinations, neither wives were injured in any way.
Lincoln was killed in Ford's theater, Kennedys's killer was in the Texas School Book Depository. After Booth shot Lincoln he hid in a Warehouse, after Oswald shot Kennedy he hid in a movie theatre. So long story short, Booth shot Lincoln in a theatre and hid in a warehouse, but Oswald Shot Lincoln in a Warehouse and hid in a theatre.
A week before Lincoln's assassination he was in Monroe, Maryland. A week before Kennedy's assassination he was with Maryland Monroe.
Lincoln's secretary's nickname was Kennedy, Kennedy's secretary's nickname was Lincoln.
Both men who killed JFK, and Lincoln were killed just days after they assassinated the president.

According to the wikipedia site:Marilyn Monroe[1][2](born

Norma Jeane Mortenson; June 1, 1926 – August 5, 1962)

Slightly difficult for Kennedy to have been with her a couple weeks before he was assassinated since his death was November 22, 1963!

Lincoln got killed in a cinema and the murderer ran to a warehouse.

Kennedy got killed in a warehouse and the murderer ran to a cinema.

They both have the same number of letters in their name.

Both over six feet tall.

They both suffered from genetic diseases.

Both studied law.

Both often stated how easy it would be to shoot the president. Lincoln supposedly said, "If somebody wants to take my life, there is nothing I can do to prevent it." Kennedy supposedly said, "If somebody wants to shoot me from a window with a rifle, nobody can stop it." They are both 16 words long.

They were both shot in the head. On Friday.

Both of their wives warned them not to go to wherever they went where they were shot. Example: Mrs Kennedy warned John F. Kennedy not to go to the warehouse. And he did. And got shot in the head. Mrs Lincoln warned Abraham Lincoln not to go to the cinema. And he did. And got shot in the head.

Both wives were next to their husband when the husband was shot.

Both were captains of boats.
