Answer:

  • The Bush coalition in the 2000 election included not only Republicans (his party supporters), but also voters identifying themselves as independents and as socially conservative Democrats.

Explanation:

In the 2000 election, around 90% of Republican voters said they supported George W. Bush.  He also got support from about 60% of voters identifying themselves as independents, as well as nearly 30% of voters identifying themselves as socially conservative Democrats.  (Source of statistics: Pew Research Center polling, "The 2000 Elections.")

"Compassionate conservatism" advocated for traditional families, welfare reform, strengthening education, and providing assistance to people and countries in poverty.  George W. Bush described it this way:  "It is compassionate to actively help our citizens in need. It is conservative to insist on accountability and results."

Answer:

The two groups are Global Climate Coalition and the Christian Coalition.

Explanation:

Compassionate conservatism is an American political philosophy that stresses using conservative techniques and concepts in order to improve the general welfare of society. This term was used by Bush during his campaign for 2000 election.

President Bush's doctrine proclaims that US enemies use terrorism as a war of ideology against the nation. Thus US has to protect herself by building a democracy that undermines the basis for terrorist activities.

The Christian Coalition, a prominent group within the Christian right, assisted in delivering the presidential election to Bush in 2000 majorly because of the way he relates with them.
