George Walker Bush is the second man in the history of the United States to have followed in his father footsteps and become the President. Bush served two consecutive terms as President, starting with January 2001.

The bipartisan structure which defines the American system of democratic governance is premised on the notion that informed voters, when provided with an opportunity to select their own leadership, will invariably alternate between candidates with whom they identify closely, and members of the opposing party who offer meaningful reform. This maxim of American politics has resulted in a pattern of Presidential ascendency whereby neither party has captured the White House in three consecutive elections since the four consecutive campaign victories notched by Franklin Delano Roosevelt more than a half-century ago. Nonetheless, there are still pockets of provincial loyalty which still exist throughout the national electorate, with family histories and cultural touchstones serving to elevate one party above its competition in the hearts and minds of voters. In the second congressional district of Tennessee – an area which spans the metropolitan borders of Knoxville, as well as the surrounding suburbs of Farragut, Maryville and Powell – this curious phenomenon of local politics has become engrained in the societal structure, forming a continuous chain of leadership from the district's current representative to his Republican predecessors in 1855. With the election of John James "Jimmy" Duncan, Jr. (R-Knoxville) in 1988 – and his successful reelection every two years afterward to this day – the second congressional district of Tennessee has maintained a steady state of Republican representation for more than 150 years. However, this unbroken line of succession has not been mirrored in Tennessee's delegation of U.S. Senators throughout the years, as current Senator Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) is just the third GOP member to represent Tennessee in the Senate during the last 100 years. The following analysis of Tennessee's electoral machinations, both on the Congressional and Senatorial level, is intended to examine the array of sociocultural factors which have contributed to the state's decidedly conservative political leaning.
