I've lived a long life and seen a lot of First Ladies, so I have several favorites.
Jackie Kennedy, because she brought a new sense of style to the White House while at the same time restoring it to its former grandeur.
Lady Bird Johnson, because she knew exactly how to manage LBJ, and for her efforts in beautifying the country.
Rosalynn Carter, for her graciousness and because she was so down to earth and such an equal partner with Jimmy.
And of course, Michelle Obama.

Now if you ask me for my UNfavorite ones, there are but two:
Melania and Nancy Reagan

I think you and I share these views of all of them. Jackie put up with her husband's many adulteries and I ponder that (but understand she was a product of her time). I do feel affection for Rosalynn Carter and for Lady Bird.

Totally agree about Melania and Nancy R. I think it's telling that Melania can't stand Donald. AND, I am no prude, but I don't much like our First Lady posing in the nude (nothing against nudity itself but keep it in art and out of the politics of our First Lady).

For Democrats it's Michelle Obama
For Republicans it's Laura Bush

HRC, Michelle Obama, Rosalyn Carter.. If I have to add an R to the list, I'd have to think, but most were very traditional first ladies (except for Nancy Reagan, who it appeared, functioned much like Woodrow Wilson's after his stroke. I don't even consider Melania on the list since she's only First Lady in name only.

Close, but that doesn't count.

I have 4 granddaughters, one of them who is transitioning and now identifies as female. My husband and I think it is doubtful that we will see a woman POTUS in our lifetimes. That is depressing.

I still hope for it. I think it's something our country needs to do, and very soon. It's hard to explain why I think that, but I do.

I was in a state of shock during that moment in the debate where he seemed lost. We were stunned. We had never seen him that way and suddenly he just started saying strange things (even Trump seemed surprised, that snake). Kamala is to be praised for doing all she could to save the ticket from defeat. I really thought she would win. I took that loss worse than any I have ever experienced in my life...I cast my first vote for JFK.

For me, all of our First Ladies have respected their position and responsibilities as gracious keepers of our glorious House, except one. You got it right- Melania Trump. What an embarrassment she is. She emerges as a nasty, petty, hateful horror. 😝🤮

I'm glad she doesn't live in the WH with the shithead.

I remember "Camelot" and will always have a soft spot for that time frame. Jackie had such grace and she handled herself so well, even when tragedy struck.

followed closely by Michelle Obama.

as you are. I miss the Obamas so much! And I know that clouds my thinking.

That said, I do love and respect Jill Biden and I try not to be bitter about Hillary's loss (that took an emotional bite out of me, as I recall).
