Answer 2

Yes, Jackie Kennedy was a popular first lady. The whole Kennedy family was generally very well liked during the presidency of John F. Kennedy. That was one of the reasons why the assassination of President Kennedy was such a shock. He and his family were very well liked, and we did not see the kind of bitter, scorched earth politics that characterizes the 21st century. Even the political opponents of Kennedy did not violently detest him, it was more a matter of having some polite disagreements. But in the end, he was killed anyway. Ever since then, American politics have been more divisive.
