The candidates were both strong politician and who were well known inside their parties and amongst the American people. Al Gore, the Vice-President at the time, was praised for the work he and Bill Clinton did in the 90's. For the first time in twelve years, Democrats were in the White House. Together Clinton and Gore tackled economic problems, foreign policies, and welfare and social security reform. Democrats were impressed by Gore's attention to environmental issues and his support of Clinton through his impeachment trials. George W. bush Jr., son of former president George bush, was also a popular candidate. Citizens were attracted to his "compassionate" Republican approach to politics.
