Step-by-step explanation:

Bill Clinton positioned himself as a "New Democrat" as he campaigned for office in the 1992 election. In some ways, this was actually similar to John F. Kennedy in particular, who also accepted many conservative ideals, including tax cuts, along with a more expansive vision of the social contract.
