The answer is option 2.

By 1980, Americans were ready for a change in leadership. They were already tired of liberal presidents since the 1930s, disappointed by many of the past presidents' policies, poor leadership, and also, Carter's presidency (1977-1981) had left unemployment and inflation rates. So America was ready for the beginning of conservative leadership, a new view politics that gave them hope to prosper and Ronald Reagan represented that.

Thus in 1981, Reagan became the 40th American President, having defeated the Democrat Jimmy Carter by winning the electoral college (489 to 49) and capturing almost 51 percent of the popular vote.
