Jackie Kennedy’s Audio tapes, made just months after the killing of her husband President John F Kennedy, have been made public for the first time.
In the general discussion with a White House historian, she articulates civil rights leader Martin Luther King is "a horrible man".
Jackie Kennedy, who passed away in 1994, is mocking about JFK's vice-president Lyndon Johnson and global heads.
In the eight hours of tapes, she reminds, as well, how her husband gagged about the threat of murder.
Jackie Kennedy undisclosed her heart to White House advising Arthur Schlesinger at her Washington home, four months after JFK was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, in 1963.
'That malicious man'
She agreed to the interviews on situation that they would not be freed until long after her demise. .
The tapes are the theme of a book - Jacqueline Kennedy: Historic Conversations on Life With John F Kennedy – publicized on Wednesday.
She reminds her husband's sarcastic words about his Texan Vice-President, Lyndon Johnson, whom he unwillingly made his number two because of the requirement for a Southerner to balance the ticket.
"Jack said it to me occasionally. He said, 'Oh, God, can you ever see what would do to the country if Lyndon were president?"' she said.
She also categorically condemned Dr King, remembering how her brother-in-law, US Attorney General Robert Kennedy, told her the civil rights leader had been drunken at JFK's memorial service and teased Cardinal Richard Cushing's Mass.
She said: "He made fun of Cardinal Cushing and Robert said that he was intoxicated at it. I can't see a photo of Martin Luther King without considering, that man's horrible."
She set aside spiky condemnation for world heads, also.
French President Charles de Gaulle was "that egomaniac" and "that unkind man", while future Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was an "acidic, kind of pushy, terrible woman".
She remembered that her contiguous moments with her husband came during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, when the US and Soviet Union seemed on the edge of nuclear war.
Some higher ranked officer had sent their wives away, but the first lady opposed.
"If something occurs, we're all going to stay right here with you," she keeps in mind telling her husband.
"Though there's not room in the bomb haven in the White House. I just would like to be with you, and I desire to die with you, and the children do, as well - than live without you."
Jackie Kennedy also brought to mind how her husband joked knowingly about being murdered after arguing Abraham Lincoln's inheritance with a Princeton historian.
JFK had inquired the academic if Lincoln would have been figured as great a president if he had not been assassinated.
The historian responded that was not probably since Lincoln's fame would finally have undergone while handling the problem of post-Civil War restoration.
The ex first lady said: "And then I memorize Jack saying after the Cuban missile crisis, when it all turned [out] so unbelievably, he said, 'Well, if someone's ever going to kill me, this would be the day they should do it.'"
