00:00 It all began so beautifully.

00:02 Lyndon Johnson and Mrs. Johnson have just arrived.

00:06 Lyndon and I rode down the avenue in one car.

00:09 Suddenly, there was a shot.

00:11 I heard the words, "The President is dead."

00:15 Mrs. Kennedy's dress was stained with her husband's blood.

00:19 I asked God if I couldn't get somebody to help her change.

00:23 She said, "Oh no."

00:24 I want them to see what they have done to Jack.

00:27 We have this from Washington.

00:29 The commandator was saying, "Lyndon Johnson, our President of the United States."

00:33 That was when the enormity first struck me.

00:36 I was walking onto a stage for a part I had never rehearsed.

00:41 As the wife of the President, only I would see events unfold from that particular vantage point.

00:48 I thought to record this.

00:52 And it was incredible.

00:56 I walked to the oven, hands, whatever he's doing.

00:59 You want to listen to my critique tonight?

01:02 Yes, ma'am.

01:03 You are a little reckless. You need to read it with a little more conviction.

01:06 In general, it was a good B+.

01:08 Lindbergh came flying into my room.

01:11 "Mama, Mama, Dr. King's been shot."

01:13 Evening assumed a nightmare quality.

01:16 The White House was like a fortress.

01:18 Nobody gets out, nobody gets in.

01:20 The phone jarred me awake.

01:23 It was Lyndon saying, "Senator Kennedy had been shot."

01:26 What is our country coming to?

01:28 What is happening to us?

01:29 Are we a sick society?

01:31 The world had changed overnight.

01:35 But Vietnam dominated the news.

01:37 He, I, and the children, Linda and Lucy,

01:43 will be criticized and slandered for things we have done, things we never did at all.

01:47 That Vietnam War is for the birds.

01:49 Linda Bird, Lady Bird, Blue Bird.

01:51 This will be painful. It's a perilous path to tread.

01:54 The burial of Bobby Kennedy.

01:58 I found myself in front of Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy.

02:01 I felt extreme hostility.

02:03 Was it because I was alive?

02:05 The greatest courage in the world is to get up in the morning and go about the day's work.

02:11 It is an endurance contest, this job.

02:13 That's a large order for a woman.

02:19 [laughter]
