Explanation:

First Question (George H. W. Bush and conservatives)

George H. W. Bush alienated conservatives mainly by raising taxes. He had promised "no new taxes" but later agreed to a tax increase, which went against conservative fiscal principles. The other options are incorrect: he didn't fail to maintain a conservative majority (congressional majorities are complex and not the main reason), he was a Republican, and lowering taxes for businesses would align with conservative views.

Between 1990 and 2000, Hispanics had the largest population gain in the US. This was due to factors like immigration and higher birth rates compared to other groups like whites, African Americans, and Asians during that period.

Answer:

D. He raised taxes.
