| George Bush was one of five main candidates to seek the Republican Party’s nomination as United States presidential candidate in 1988. Bush capitalized on his reputation as vice president under U.S. President Ronald Reagan (1981-1989) and won the nomination. He went on to win the presidential election, defeating Michael Dukakis of the Democratic Party. Shown here celebrating at the 1988 Republican National Convention are (left to right): Bush’s wife, Barbara Bush; Vice President and Republican presidential candidate George Bush; Senator Dan Quayle from Indiana, Bush’s vice-presidential running mate; and Quayle’s wife, Marilyn Quayle. |
