Answer:

A

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: d. capitalized on their status as Washington outsiders

Explanation:

Jimmy Carter sought to portray himself as a man of the people. A citizen just like any other. He dressed simply and talked simply and tried to show that he was an outsider to the career politicians of Washington.

Ronald Reagan was a famous hollywood actor who then became Governor of California. His acting career made him an outsider by default to the politics of Washington.

Both of them capitalized on this to gain support from the masses and get elected to the position of President.
