Turning point of world war 2?
Tomtit [17]
This is a hard question that is open to discussion even among historians who specifically study World War 2 as a topic and specialize in it. 

The most frequent answers that would probably be given is: 
1. Pearl Harbor - with the attack of the Japanese on Pearl Harbor, USA was effectively dragged into the war which may have tipped the odds in favour of the Allies.
2. Stalingrad - the Soviet Union captured a huge German army in Stalingrad. The soldiers from this army were either imprisoned until the rest of the war or died due to hunger. In effect this meant that the German forces lost a whole army on the Eastern front. 
3. Normandy landings - the Normandy invasion gave the Allies a foothold on the beaches of Western Europe from where they could invade through the mainland right into Berlin by the end.

xenn [34]

Answer:

-Compromise with Congress.

Explanation:

When George H.W. Bush was running for office in 1988, he promised the American people not to raise taxes. After his election, the slowdown in economic growth and a Democratic majority in Congress forced Bush to compromise with it on a substantial increase in taxes. In 1990 he raised various taxes and broke his election promise. This caused great displeasure, especially among conservative Republicans who voted for him. Four years later, during the 1992 campaign for his re-election, both his competitor in the Republican primaries, Pat Buchanan, and his Democratic opponent, Bill Clinton, reminded him of this broken promise, which was in fact one of the causes why he lost against Clinton.
