kennedy's reference to being the man who accompanied jackie kennedy to paris the jackie kennedy kind of stole the limelight in paris and mrs. reagan, certainly did that night and the the idea that this woman had a sense of humor at all much left less an ability to for self-deprecation was really quite a wonderful picture of president reagan himself. just go falling at the dias that table that night the third doing that but fashion was a mainstay with her. she wanted to look her best and she dressed her best and fast forward to the time of the first lady's portrait, which was done by aaron schickler the same portrait artist, ironically that did jaqueline kennedy you say ironically i would say probably deliberately. okay. good point you win that one. she's wearing that very that galanos gown of the red her signature red. anything about the imagery of that and the similarity between those two portraits that strike you it's the serenity. in both of them and i think the serenity and nancy reagan's case that was really sort of an odds with with the reality of her life that it's just both o

and jacki kennedy came a little bit late. i'm not sure she was feeling that well in the morning. but she did show up and the crowd it seems, the stories that i have heard, are that the crowd was just as excited to see her as to see him. so that was a special moment in fort worth. everybody was excited. while that was going on in the hotel, people were lining up on the streets. we knew where the motorcade was going to be. high school bands and cheerleaders were lining the streets. folks knew when the motorcade was going to go by so the office building started emptying. the department stores started emptying and the motorcade when it finally did come off of the hotel property and on to main street, the motorcade went down toward the courthouse and he left fort worth on a high. people were cheering and the band was playing and the stories i have heard after the fact are that people were very proud that fort worth hosted the president of the and the first lady and they were very glad they had an opportunity to see them in person and to host them in such fine fashion. one of the thing

kennedy and her mother-in-law rose kennedy spent $30,000 a year on clothes in paris, to which jackie very famously responded i couldn't spend that much money on clothing unless i wore sable underwear. she then made a remark talking about, well, mrs. nixon -- it was a back-handed compliment but of course a political one and so she said, mrs. nixon dresses very well. she buys her clothes at elizabeth arden's and those are not inexpensive. so you saw coverage of the two candidates' wives from an image of news week magazine and the lower center image was a composite put together on ladies home journal. of course, the cartoon at the far left, i hope dick and jack finally realize what their destiny hangs on. and if the two candidates' wives are walking down a fashion runway. and the center image at the top is inauguration day the morning of the kennedy inaugural, january '61. you have with her back to the camera lady bird johnson, the incoming vice president's wife, then seated mamie eisenhower the outgoing first lady, jackie kennedy the incoming and pat nixon the outgoing vice president's

>> i think it's no question jackie kennedy had the most influence because it was a global influence.you'll see in the book to images, i think, that speak to that. one shows that even in the midst of the cold war, behind the iron curtain, there were soviet women's magazines showing off the jacket look, which is so extraordinary. and secondly, when she in elaborate coat, there was such an instant global demand for low pet coats that the leopard was placed on the endangered species list. >> [laughs] >> so, i mean, it was, you know, it was a big business. and it was -- i could go on about that -- you'll see more about that in the book. as far as the best dressed, you know, each year honestly does speak to that. and i'm also, as i said at the beginning of this project, i don't know a lot about fashion per se. and i'm not even all that interested and -- i say that in all great respect for what is a craft and a business and unimportant industry -- but the politics and the popular culture that it reflects or is a statement about, that is what i know about. so i'm not necessarily the best jud

you have liddy bird johnson, then sitting eisenhower, and jackie kennedy, and. jackie commented how attractive mrs. nixon appeared that day at the inauguration in what she called a california style. pat nixon became first lady in an era where according to newspaper coverage that i certainly did a lot of research on for our book there was a wild and radical variety of clothing. women in pants, women in mini skirts, women in maxi skirts which reached the floor. solid colors, but also patterns of all kinds. so pat nixon generally refrained from wearing some of the more radical look of the period, although she did wear a -- kind of a wild patterned dress. but that was actual low for a halloween party at the far right. and then a -- what was a popular sort of beach wear at the time, lily pulitzer, as she's seen in the center there, in florida, with president nixon. pat nixon was described as wearing cheery california colors, or the california look. and one does find that in her wardrobe there is a strong element of oranges, greens, and yellows, cheery colors that she

and jackie kennedy and him wrote a note soon thereafter to run to kosher. in the soviet union tell him that they knew that this was not russian plot to to kill kennedy. that in fact, it was right wing group in the united states. they sent in the letter and had done this. there was a correspondence between the kennedys and cruise shop that had been going on before the assassination. is an interesting sign angle to put in. robert kennedy makes very clear that his father, in $68.00 was running for president on part of that agenda was that he was going to revisit, going to enact policies that had begun under john his brother. and then he was, among other things, going to look into the assassination again because he never was, never believed the warren commission. among other things, he knew something was up. and then for that reason i do believe the robert kennedy was killed in cold blood. and quickly because they knew what was at stake if he got into office, there would be hell to pay because the so called mainstream media that are lied to us about iraq lied to
