First, George H.W. Bush focused on security, while Clinton focused on economy. George H.W. Bush was Reagan's vice president, who won Reagan's trust and was called the strongest vice president in history. 1989, after Reagan left office, George H.W. Bush was elected president of the United States. During the Bush administration, the Soviet Union disintegrated and the United States won the Gulf War cleanly and beautifully. However, Bush did not change his mind in time. In the 1992 US presidential election, he still focused on cold war slogans such as security and values. On the other hand, Clinton launched? Idiot! Everything is economical? The campaign slogan attracted the support of many Americans. It can also be said that in the US presidential election of 1992, Clinton's economic card defeated Bush's security card.

Second, George H.W. Bush's debate and speech skills are far less than Clinton's. Why did the experienced Nixon lose to playboy Kennedy in the 1950 s? The point is that Kennedy is more handsome and talkative. After the popularization of television, the image and speech ability of presidential candidates will have a great influence on the results of presidential elections. At that time, George H.W. Bush thought he was a shoo-in, and he didn't do much preparation for the presidential candidate's TV debate. Clinton is not only young and handsome, but also outstanding in speech and debate. In the presidential debate, Clinton, who was well prepared, won a great victory, while Bush was very embarrassed.

Third, Ross? Perot reduced Bush's vote. Ross? Perot is the founder of EDS, the founder and chairman of Perot system, and also belongs to American conservative camp. In the US presidential election of 1992, Ross? Perot set up his own reform party and ran for president of the United States at his own expense. What happened, Ross? Perot got 18.9% of the votes, Bush Sr. got 37.5% of the votes, and Clinton only got 43% of the votes. No Ross? Perola thinned the votes of Bush's conservative camp. Even if Clinton had more advantages, it would be difficult to defeat Bush. In the mid-term parliamentary election of 1994, the * * * Party defeated the Democratic Party again, which proved that the conservative camp was still stronger than the progressive camp in the social atmosphere at that time.

However, George W. Bush was not re-elected, but he successfully helped his son George W. Bush ascend to the throne of the United States eight years later!
