Artifact 1: Jackie's Pink Chanel Suit The most important artifact in this exhibit would be Jackie's iconic pink and navy Chanel suit. It was reportedly one of her favorite pieces and she had already worn it multiple times before the dreadful day of the assassination. Some even state that JFK actually asked her to wear it that day because she looked "smashing" in it. It is now viewed as one of the most iconic looks in fashion history because of its backstory. After the death of her husband, Jackie refused to take off the blood-stained outfit, stating "let them see what they've done". Artifact 2:  Jackie's Wedding Dress Jackie's wedding dress would also be in this exhibit because it displayed  her style and also marked a major turning point in her life.

Dinner Menu: Drink: Champagne   I chose champagne as the drink of choice because it was Jackie's drink of choice. It was reported that she most always drank at least one glass a day. She was a heavy drinker, especially once experiencing trauma from the death of her husband.

She never had much of a heavy appetite and "watched her weight with the rigor of diamond merchant counting his carats". On her potatoes, Jackie preferred...

1. Before doing any research, I would except to see names such as John F. Kennedy, Barack Obama, and Abraham Lincoln at the top of a list of presidents sorted by popularity. I could expect to see someone like Donald Trump at the bottom of said list.  PART A (1-8) Without researching this topic, I predict the three most highly ranked presidents in US history will be John F. Kennedy, Barack Obama, and Abraham Lincoln and the worst might be Donald Trump. 2. Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Theodore Roosevelt have consistently been identified as the top four presidents of the US. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Harry S. Truman are in fifth and sixth place, meaning that they could have switched from fourth to fifth, as Theodore has consistently placed fourth in each survey. 3. I have observed that this survey is only accurate until 2017. This also made me notice that because of this time frame, Donald Trump would be excluded from this list. I noticed that...
