Guest guest Posted May 23, 2001 Report Share Posted May 23, 2001 Hi This was sent to me and thought you might like to read this! Lots of Love Glenda -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- History Lesson What happens when a president gets elected in a year with a " 0 " at the end? Also notice it goes in increments of 20 years. And LOOK! This year is where it lands! 1840: Henry on (Died in Office) 1860: Abraham Lincoln (Assassinated) 1880: A. Garfield (Assassinated) 1900: McKinley (Assassinated) 1920: Warren G. Harding (Died in Office) 1940: lin D. Roosevelt (Died in Office) 1960: F. Kennedy (Assassinated) 1980: Reagan (Survived Assassination Attempt) 2000: ?????????????????????????????????? And to think that we had 2 guys duking it out in the courts to be the one elected in 2000 You might be interested in this. Have a history teacher explain this ---- If they can. Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. 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. Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln. Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners named . , who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon , who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. 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. Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.' Kennedy was shot in a car called 'Lincoln' made by Ford Booth ran from the theater and was caught in a warehouse. Oswald ran from a warehouse and was caught 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, land. A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.
