George W. Bush Campaign Cap, 2004
Add to SetSummary
Republican nominee George Walker Bush narrowly won the 2000 presidential election. He was re-elected in 2004, defeating Senator John Kerry, the Democratic contender. Bush's campaigns regularly referenced his middle initial "W" to differentiate him from his father, former President George Herbert Walker Bush. The initial "W" (pronounced "Dubya") was used affectionately by Bush's supporters and derisively by his detractors.
