1. To determine which example best shows President Carter's willingness to solve problems with a conservative solution, we need to evaluate each option and assess its alignment with conservative principles.

a) Carter reducing government regulation of the transportation industry: This could be seen as a conservative solution as it aligns with the principle of limited government intervention in the economy.

b) Carter taking steps to protect freedom of speech and religious freedom: This is not necessarily a conservative solution as it could be viewed as upholding individual liberties rather than adhering to conservative principles.

c) Carter trying to reform Social Security and the U.S. tax code: This could be seen as a conservative solution as it aligns with the principle of smaller government and fiscal responsibility.

d) Carter blocking oil imports from Iran after the hostage crisis began: While this action may have had conservative implications in terms of national security, it does not directly address a domestic problem with a conservative solution.

Based on the evaluation, option c (Carter trying to reform Social Security and the U.S. tax code) can be considered the best example of President Carter's willingness to solve problems with a conservative solution.

b) Support for human rights: This was an important aspect of Carter's presidency, but it is not the main reason for his defeat in the 1980 election.

c) Foreign policy in the Middle East: Carter's handling of the Iran hostage crisis and perceived weakness in foreign policy played a significant role in his defeat.
