There are some interesting coincidences here but some are not true. There is really no evidence that Oswald shot Kennedy. According to the marines he was not a particularly good shot, and that shot would have required fantastic marksmanship. He worked in the book depository but there is no proof that he was there that day. People saw booth jump from the balcony and yell something about Thus to tyrants. No one saw Oswald anywhere involved with the shooting.
Neither president had much besides a passing interest in civil rights or freeing the slaves. Kennedy's main interest for being in Dallas was re-election. Lincoln's interest was saving the union, slavery was not a part of his plan until 1963.
One was a child of affluence while the other was the child of what amounted to a middle class family. The two men had nothing in common socially or economically.
Both assassins were known by 3 names because the press made it so.
As for the conspiracy part; Lincolns death was obviously a conspiracy because there were several people who were supposed to be killed that day by Booths fellow conspirators.
The one thing you can bet on in Kennedy's case is that it did not happen the way the Warren report said it happened!
 
It sounds more like karma than conspiracy. But we do know that Lincoln's murder was a conspiracy, which is why so many were executed for their roles in the events. But we're not sure if Kennedy's situation was conspiracy or not. We do know there were many conspiracies to bring him down. We just don't know if the players in the actual events conspired with each other to cause his death on November 22. Personally, I believe that Jack Ruby's role is a very clear clue that the Giancana family from Chicago was involved in Kennedy's death. Proof, however, is lacking because Ruby and his colleagues took their stories with themselves to the grave.

Oh no, not this again. "Here are a batch of coincidences that prove there was a conspiracy!" But their nothing but coincidences. There's a greater chance of conspiracy with Lincoln's assassinaton than with Kennedy's. Especially as Oswald worked alone but Booth worked in a group
