Explanation:

- The original phrase "makes vague promise" is grammatically incorrect because "makes" is a present tense verb and should be "make" to match with the plural noun "politicians". Additionally, "promise" should be plural as "promises."

- Option 1: has promises - This suggests possession rather than an action and doesn't fit the context.

- Option 2: would recalled policies - This is incorrect grammatically and contextually, as "recalled" does not fit with promises about tax cuts.

- Option 3: made vague promises - Corrects the tense and number agreement. "Made" aligns with the past tense and "promises" is plural to match the subject "politicians."

- Option 4: should conflict promise - This does not make sense contextually, as it introduces "conflict," which is not related to the original meaning.

- Option 5: No replacement required - Suggests the sentence is already correct, which it is not.
