Now, these were mostly women in their 50's and 40's, were not women with young children. It was a lovely evening at someone's home and at the end of the evening, I found out about where these people were. I found out that these people had never come into downtown, they had nothing to do with Atlanta. They moved to Alpharetta from other places, and they had they have no interest in Atlanta. They had no interest in coming into the city. When I mentioned things in the city, they didn't know about the High Museum, they didn't know about the Symphony. They really had made their lives up there. I think that's kind of tragic. If they feel that way about the city, they're certainly not going to feel a part of a united Jewish community, of a larger Jewish community. I don't want that to happen, if this is going to be a great Jewish community, then we're going to have to have a presence.

I think that the Marcus Center, the Zaban Center is a wonderful thing but I'm glad that the Federation has a presence in the city. That's probably something . . . that grows out of my experience in Chicago. I want to be sure that this community does not abandon the city.

Unionists and loyalists, who for historical reasons were mostly Ulster Protestants, wanted Northern Ireland to remain within the United Kingdom. Irish nationalists and republicans, who were mostly Irish Catholics, wanted Northern Ireland to leave the United Kingdom and join a united Ireland. The main participants in the Troubles were republican paramilitaries such as the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) and the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA); loyalist paramilitaries such as the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) and Ulster Defence Association (UDA); British state security forces such as the British Army and Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC); and political activists. Republicans carried out a guerrilla campaign against British forces as well as a bombing campaign against infrastructural, commercial, and political targets. Loyalists attacked republicans/nationalists and the wider Catholic community in what they described as retaliation. The Troubles also involved numerous riots, mass protests, and acts of civil disobedience, and led to increased segregation and the creation of temporary no-go areas.

In the 2000 presidential election, he won over Democratic incumbent Vice President Al Gore, while losing the popular vote after a narrow and contested Electoral College win. In office, Bush signed a major tax-cut program and an education-reform bill, the No Child Left Behind Act. He pushed for socially conservative efforts such as the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act and faith-based initiatives. He also initiated the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, in 2003, to address the AIDS epidemic. The terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, decisively reshaped his administration, resulting in the start of the war on terror and the creation of the Department of Homeland Security and the creation of the Patriot Act to authorize surveillance of suspected terrorists. In 2004, Bush was re-elected president in a close race, beating Democratic opponent John Kerry and winning the popular vote.
