George W. Bush
乔治•布什
George W. Bush served two terms as the 43rd President of the United States of America after serving as governor of Texas from 1994-2000. Bush's first term was defined by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and his decision to send American and allied troops to war in Afghanistan and Iraq. These conflicts continued into his second term, when the Bush Administration also confronted the 2007 global economic crisis. In part due to his comfort speaking about his born-again faith, Bush enjoyed considerable success with evangelical Christians. Bush introduced the term "compassionate conservatism" to describe his political ideology in the 2000 elections and exit polls showed high levels of support amongst the most church-going Americans.
乔治•布什是美国第43任总统，任职两届。此前在1994年至2000年期间，曾担任德克萨斯州州长。布什的第一届总统任期经历了2001年的“911”恐怖袭击，随后他决定派遣美军和联军出征阿富汗和伊拉克。战事持续到他的第二届任期。2007年布什政府还面临全球经济危机。布什在演讲中经常提及他“重生”的信仰，因此在福音派基督徒当中赢得支持。布什在2000年总统竞选期间引入“有同情心的保守主义”的概念阐释其政治理念。投票后民意调查显示，布什在定期到教堂做礼拜的人群当中享有较高的支持率。
