President Bush's bold, uncompromising leadership and his clear-cut election victory made him Time magazine's "Person of the Year" for 2004.大胆、坚决的领导能力以及连任竞选的胜利,使得布什总统被《时代》杂志评选为2004年的“年度人物”。Time chose Bush "for sticking to his guns (literally and figuratively), for reshaping the rules of politics to fit his 10-gallon-hat leadership style and for persuading a majority of voters this time around that he deserved to be in the White House for another four years," Jim Kelly wrote in the magazine.《时代》执行总编吉姆·凯利在杂志中写道,《时代》选择布什是因为他“坚持己见,改造政治原则适应他的西部牛仔式的领导风格,以及说服大部分投票者让他再入主白宫4年”。Bush was also Time's choice to appear on the cover in 2000 after winning the presidential election.布什曾是《时代》2000年的年度人物,那是在布什赢得总统选举胜利之后。His father, President George H. W. Bush, was named "Man of the Year" in 1990 for what Time called his mastery of foreign policy and his wavering domestic record.他的父亲老布什因其两面性:在外交领域坚定有力,在内政方面,平庸胆怯,被1990年《时代》杂志评为“年度人物”。
