    The answer to your second question would probably be the new right.
    Although the televangelists began dabbling in politics, their political coalition would have been called the christian coalition or the moral majority. Supply side economics also would not be called a political coalition, but rather one of their policies. SDI wouldn’t be a coalition, but more like a project.

    I am not sure on the coalition, but if SDI is strategic defense initiative, that’s it

    If you have the internet, you don’t need your notes. At least just look all this stuff up on Wikipedia!
