Those who die without the LORD, who hate GOD and reject the LORD will go to Hell and exist in burning until the second death spoken of in Revelation, judged and sent into eternity. When the LORD returns bodies will be raised and we whom are yet alive will meet the LORD in the air. I do trust that believers who died in the LORD will be with Him.

@robertpizor577 2 года назад

Gotta list some of my favs right here: 1) Jackie Kennedy - in addition to the grace and dignity after the assassination, also an incredible diplomat. Well worth her own solo vid in my estimation 2) Eleanor Roosevelt - enough said. 3) Louisa Adams - read a biography of her recently and find her to be criminally underrated. 4) Jane Pierce - what a comeback after all the loss and tragedy she experienced! 5) Lucretia Garfield - fighting for equal pay while tending her wounded husband = queen. 6) Ida McKinley - admire anyone who has to cope with the stress of being a first lady while battling a disability. 7) Pat Nixon - maintained dignity and class through all that Nixon put her through. 8) Grace Coolidge - so cool on a personality level. Would love to hang out with her. She'd be a blast. 9) Lou Hoover - love a polyglot. 10) Rosalynn Carter - humanitarian work is always a bonus for me. All would be worth a solo vid, but my pick would be Jackie.

I definitely have a soft spot for Mary Lincoln. She was a very sweet lady who didn't get the help she needed and was dragged by the media for her outbursts, which she did apologize for afterwards according to several people. She did overspend a little bit, but not nearly as much as some historians would have you believe. People like to throw around that 300 pairs of gloves at once thing, but ignore that at least half of them were in her husband's size. One of Lincoln's associates who managed the money was the one who really blew through it like he had a coke problem, and he let her take the fall for it. Far too many people take Herndon's very biased negative portrayal of he at face value, but if you read anything he didn't write, you get a very different perspective. She was the kind of person who nursed her neighbor's baby when she couldn't breastfeed, and started a fundraiser for a little boy who had been hurt in an accident.

I respect Martha Washington for the courage & strong independent person she was. The slavery issue is a big detraction, I can’t fully reconcile that. Eleanor Roosevelt was someone that made the office more than hostess. Her intelligence & compassion are inspiring given the many roadblocks she encountered. I have more. Thank you!

And it wasn't just him who she corresponded matters with either, she even wrote to Thomas Jefferson in the aftermath of Shay's Rebellion warning him to wake up to the dangers of excessive liberties without limitations (she basically told him that if such revolts kept occurring the fledgling United States would collapse into anarchy and chaos). In her view, order and freedom had to be balanced...and honestly, she makes a good point.

In some ways I feel sorry for Andrew Jackson, his wife being targeted during the 1828 campaign and it possibly contributed to her death due to a heart attack. The impression I get is that although he forgave those who targeted him during the 1828 campaign, he decided to never forgive those who attacked his wife. It was this, I believe, that contributed to one of the most bizarre incidents in his Presidency, the Petticoat Affair, centering on Margaret "Peggy" Eton, wife of Jackson’s Secretary of War, John Eton

Her project as First Lady was to de-stigmatize mental illness and fight for funding treatment. This effort did not end when she left Washington. She gave speeches around the world and clear up in her 90s testified in congress and went on the late night shows to talk mental heath. Just a lovely lady.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it was Jackie Kennedy who went on the first diplomatic mission by a First Lady. She went on a famous solo trip to India and Pakistan on behalf of her husband (the Indian folks from what I've heard referred to her as "the American queen" out of sheer respect and admiration). When she got back, she apparently urged JFK to shake up the US embassy staff in Pakistan, and her learned firsthand knowledge of India proved priceless to the administration when not long after the Sino-Indian War broke out IIRC (Communist China launched a huge invasion of India's border in 1962, and there were rising concerns it could even turn into a World War III, if America had to step in on India's behalf). At least 1-2 sources I've read said that Jackie was temporarily given classified info access so that she could assist her husband more directly during the crisis (which thankfully ended when Chinese leader Mao Zedong halted his invasion after taking some border regions). Utterly insane history to read on. 1962 had to be the most terrifying year in modern history.

I remember some of what they were putting in the lunchrooms at schools once that really got going, some of the food looked just plain nasty. Many kids shied from eating it. Even if she meant well, it came across as VERY out of touch to many people (remember her kids went to a prominent private school with its own chef) and just not realistic for what normal kids will eat. What they SHOULD have done is talked to the kids themselves about what they'd be willing to try out, and/or looking at ways to make the traditional foods healthier (such as more nutritious pizza crusts, etc.).

She may not have been politically influential as Eleanor, or had as many media stuff made on her as the two you listed, but Mamie Eisenhower was hands down one of the most CULTURALLY influential First Ladies along with Jackie Kennedy. It was actually her who started the historic preservation of the White House, IIRC she was appalled to discover that many "old" items in the building were replicas when she moved in, a lot of the originals had been sold off in prior decades (I've read she recovered some of Abraham Lincoln's items with the help of an Englishman who had come to possess them). Her most famous work of all though was setting trends and fashion. Mamie was a FANATIC for the color pink and put it on everything from evening dresses to interior designs. Her designs were so wild and beautiful in the eyes of many that "Mamie Pink" became a staple feature of countless 1950s American homes. She also started most of the White House Halloween and Christmas decorating traditions. Furthermore, word got out that she was actually clipping coupons from the newspapers for the White House staff to use in order to stay on budget, which made her even more relatable in the eyes of the public. At one point, a popular rallying cry for the administration became "We Like Ike, And Mamie too!" She truly was a mid 20th Century icon.

Ida Saxton McKinley was devastated after their daughters, Katherine and Ida, Jr., died in infancy and toddler hood. Rose Cleveland had a girlfriend, with whom she's buried. Eleanor Roosevelt was actually Theodore Roosevelt's niece. He had legal custody of her after her mother died, while her material grandmother had physical custody of her. Bess Wallace Truman suffered two miscarriages before giving birth to her daughter in 1924. Some speculated that she was intensely private because of her dad's 1904 suicide, which was largely a family secret for decades. Mamie Doud Eisenhower was downright cruel to Jacqueline Kennedy. Kennedy had just birthed her second surviving child when she received a tour from Mrs. Eisenhower, who made a wheelchair inaccessible to Mrs. Kennedy. Jacqueline Kennedy was a heavy smoker who suffered a miscarriage in 1955, before giving birth to a stillborn girl in 1956. Thankfully, Caroline Bouvier Kennedy was born in 1957. Lady Bird Johnson's legal name, Claudia, was given to her in honor of an uncle, named Claude Pattillo. Pat Nixon's given name was really Thelma. There's no record of her having legally adopted the name Patricia, which is the name of her daughter, and also the name on Mrs. Nixon's headstone. Elizabeth Bloomer Ford was a professional dancer before marrying. She had been married before, but the marriage was unstable. Mrs. Ford planned to divorce him, until he fell ill, at which time she put her plans on ice, nursed him back to health over the next few years, then reinitiated her divorce suit. Rosalynn Smith Carter had been the best friend of her husband's sister, Ruth Carter Stapleton, who hooked the two up. Carter, the eldest of four children (two brothers and a sister), lost their father when she was age 13. She began working after this and helped raise the younger siblings, of which only her sister is still alive in 2022, at the time of this writing. Nancy Reagan was born Anne Frances Robbins, her name changed after she pressed her mother's second husband to adopt her, irritated by the fact that her surname was different than theirs. She completely erased her biological father from her life. Barbara Pierce Bush was really pretty liberal compared to her husband, but she was never going to public contradict him on the big issues of the day. Their daughter Robin tragically died in 1953. She refused to acquiesce to pressure to dye her hair, lose weight, or dress in expensive designer apparel. Hillary Clinton cost her husband his first governor's election because voters were scared off by her refusal to share her husband's last name. Laura Welch Bush and her husband dated for only a few months before tying the knot. They'd tried several years for a child and were to the point of adopting when they learned that Laura was pregnant. She went to great lengths to ensure that she successfully carried both babies to delivery. Her mother died just a few years ago, aged 99.
