Actaully, Congressman pertains to both, and JFK was both a Senator and a Represetative.

Obama is the first since JFK, that is correct.

Yes, both houses constitute Congress, but House Members are known as “Congressman” or Representative So-and-so, whereas Senators are called such. President Lincoln was the last House Member with no other experience elected to that high office.
