2012年奥巴马胜选演讲
2012年奥巴马获胜演说
1.Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much.2.Tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its own destiny, thetask of perfecting our union moves forward.3.It moves forward because of you. It moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that hastriumphed over war and depression, the spirit that has lifted this country from the depths of despairto the great heights of hope, the belief that while each of us will pursue our own individual dreams,we are an American family and we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people.4.Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard,while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, andwe know in our hearts that for the United States of America the best is yet to come.5.I want to thank every American who participated in this election, whether you voted for the very firsttime or waited in line for a very long time. By the way, we have to fix that.6.Whether you pounded the pavement or picked up the phone, whether you held an Obama sign ora Romney sign, you made your voice heard and you made a difference.7.I just spoke with Governor Romney and I congratulated him and Paul Ryan on a hard-foughtcampaign. We may have battled fiercely, but it's only because we love this country deeply and wecare so strongly about its future. From George to Lenore to their son Mitt, the Romney family haschosen to give back to America through public service and that is the legacy that we honor andapplaud tonight.8.In the weeks ahead, I also look forward to sitting down with Governor Romney to talk about wherewe can work together to move this country forward.9.I want to thank my friend and partner of the last four years, America's happy warrior, the best vicepresident anybody could ever hope for, Joe Biden.10.And I wouldn't be the man I am today without the woman who agreed to marry me 20 years ago.Let me say this publicly: Michelle, I have never loved you more. I have never been prouder towatch the rest of America fall in love with you, too, as our nation’s First Lady.11.Sasha and Malia, before our very eyes you're growing up to become two strong, smart beautifulyoung women, just like your mom. And I'm so proud of you guys. But I will say that for now onedog's probably enough.12.To the best campaign team and volunteers in the history of politics, the best, the best ever. Someof you were new this time around, and some of you have been at my side since the very beginning.But all of you are family. No matter what you do or where you go from here, you will carry thememory of the history we made together and you will have the life-long appreciation of a gratefulpresident. Thank you for believing all the way, through every hill, through every valley. You lifted meup the whole way and I will always be grateful for everything that you've done and all the incrediblework that you put in.13.I know that political campaigns can sometimes seem small, even silly. And that provides plenty offodder for the cynics who tell us that politics is nothing more than a contest of egos or the domainof special interests. But if you ever get the chance to talk to folks who turned out at our rallies andcrowded along a rope line in a high school gym, or saw folks working late in a campaign office insome tiny county far away from home, you'll discover something else.You'll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who's working his way throughcollege and wants to make sure every child has that same opportunity.14.You'll hear the pride in the voice of a volunteer who's going door to door because her brother wasfinally hired when the local auto plant added another shift.15.You'll hear the deep patriotism in the voice of a military spouse whose working the phones late atnight to make sure that no one who fights for this country ever has to fight for a job or a roof overtheir head when they come home.16.That's why we do this. That's what politics can be. That's why elections matter. It's not small, it'sbig. It's important. Democracy in a nation of 300 million can be noisy and messy and complicated.We have our own opinions. Each of us has deeply held beliefs. And when we go through toughtimes, when we make big decisions as a country, it necessarily stirs passions, stirs up controversy.17.That won't change after tonight, and it shouldn't. These arguments we have are a mark of ourliberty. We can never forget that as we speak people in distant nations are risking their lives rightnow just for a chance to argue about the issues that matter, the chance to cast their ballots like wedid today.18.But despite all our differences, most of us share certain hopes for America's future. We want ourkids to grow up in a country where they have access to the best schools and the best teachers; acountry that lives up to its legacy as the global leader in technology and discovery and innovation,with all the good jobs and new businesses that follow.19.We want our children to live in an America that isn't burdened by debt, that isn't weakened byinequality, that isn't threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet.20.We want to pass on a country that's safe and respected and admired around the world, a nationthat is defended by the strongest military on earth and the best troops this , this world has everknown.21.But also a country that moves with confidence beyond this time of war, to shape a peace that isbuilt on the promise of freedom and dignity for every human being. We believe in a generousAmerica, in a compassionate America, in a tolerant America, open to the dreams of an immigrant'sdaughter who studies in our schools and pledges to our flag; to the young boy on the south side ofChicago who sees a life beyond the nearest street corner; to the furniture worker's child in NorthCarolina who wants to become a doctor or a scientist, an engineer or an entrepreneur, a diplomator even a president -- that's the future we hope for. That's the vision we share. That's where weneed to go -- forward.22.That's where we need to go.23.Now, we will disagree, sometimes fiercely, about how to get there. As it has for more than twocenturies, progress will come in fits and starts. It's not always a straight line. It's not always asmooth path.24.By itself, the recognition that we have common hopes and dreams won't end all the gridlock orsolve all our problems or substitute for the painstaking work of building consensus and making thedifficult compromises needed to move this country forward. But that common bond is where wemust begin. Our economy is recovering. A decade of war is ending. A long campaign is now over.25.And whether I earned your vote or not, I have listened to you, I have learned from you, and you'vemade me a better president. And with your stories and your struggles, I return to the White Housemore determined and more inspired than ever about the work there is to do and the future that liesahead.26.Tonight you voted for action, not politics as usual.27You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours. And in the coming weeks and months, I am lookingforward to reaching out and working with leaders of both parties to meet the challenges we canonly solve together. Reducing our deficit. Reforming our tax code. Fixing our immigration system.Freeing ourselves from foreign oil. We've got more work to do.28.But that doesn't mean your work is done. The role of citizens in our Democracy does not end withyour vote. America's never been about what can be done for us. It's about what can be done by ustogether through the hard and frustrating, but necessary work of self-government. That's theprinciple we were founded on.29.This country has more wealth than any nation, but that's not what makes us rich. We have themost powerful military in history, but that's not what makes us strong. Our university, our culture areall the envy of the world, but that's not what keeps the world coming to our shores. 30.What makes America exceptional are the bonds that hold together the most diverse nation onearth.31.The belief that our destiny is shared; that this country only works when we accept certainobligations to one another and to future generations. The freedom which so many Americans havefought for and died for come with responsibilities as well as rights. And among those are love andcharity and duty and patriotism. That's what makes America great.32.I am hopeful tonight because I've seen the spirit at work in America. I've seen it in the familybusiness whose owners would rather cut their own pay than lay off their neighbors, and in theworkers who would rather cut back their hours than see a friend lose a job.33.I've seen it in the soldiers who reenlist after losing a limb and in those SEALs whocharged up thestairs into darkness and danger because they knew there was a buddy behind them watching theirback.34.I've seen it on the shores of New Jersey and New York, where leaders from every party and levelof government have swept aside their differences to help a community rebuild from the wreckageof a terrible storm.35.And I saw just the other day, in Mentor, Ohio, where a father told the story of his8-year-olddaughter, whose long battle with leukemia nearly cost their family everything had it not been forhealth care reform passing just a few months before the insurance company was about to stoppaying for her care.36.I had an opportunity to not just talk to the father, but meet this incredible daughter of his. And whenhe spoke to the crowd listening to that father's story, every parent in that room had tears in theireyes, because we knew that little girl could be our own.37.And I know that every American wants her future to be just as bright. That's who we are. That's thecountry I'm so proud to lead as your president.38.And tonight, despite all the hardship we've been through, despite all the frustrations of Washington,I've never been more hopeful about our future.39.I have never been more hopeful about America. And I ask you to sustain that hope. I'm not talkingabout blind optimism, the kind of hope that just ignores the enormity of the tasks ahead or theroadblocks that stand in our path. I'm not talking about the wishful idealism that allows us to just siton the sidelines or shirk from a fight.40.I have always believed that hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despiteall theevidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keepreaching, to keep working, to keep fighting.41.America, I believe we can build on the progress we've made and continue to fight for new jobs andnew opportunity and new security for the middle class. I believe we can keep the promise of ourfounders, the idea that if you're willing to work hard, it doesn't matter who you are or where youcome from or what you look like or where you love. It doesn't matter whether you're black or whiteor Hispanic or Asian or Native American or young or old or rich or poor, able, disabled, gay orstraight, you can make it here in America if you're willing to try.42.I believe we can seize this future together because we are not as divided as our politics suggests.We're not as cynical as the pundits believe. We are greater than the sum of our individualambitions, and we remain more than a collection of red states and blue states. We are and foreverwill be the United States of America.43.And together with your help and God's grace we will continue our journey forward and remind theworld just why it is that we live in the greatest nation on Earth.44.Thank you, America. God bless you. God bless these United States.。
2012年奥巴马胜选演讲稿中英文对照版
对我的女儿，两位女儿，你们一天天在成长，你们成为了两位向你们的妈妈一样的淑女、美丽，有才华，我也为你们感到骄傲，但是目前我觉得给你们养一条宠物狗就够了。
Sasha and Malia, before our very eyes you're growing up to become two strong, smart beautiful young women, just like your mom. And I'm so proud of you guys. But I will say that for now one dog's probably enough.
我知道这些政治的竞选，可能有的时候看起来很愚蠢，而且我们也听到很多人跟我们讲政治有的时候十分愚蠢，可能他只是利益的追求和冲突，但是如果你们真的有机会去机会和竞选活动上和人们谈论一些问题，或者你看到一些竞选团队，非常辛勤工作的志愿者们，你们的印象会有所改观，因为你们能听到这些年轻的组织者他们的决心，你能够看到他们在面临这个机会的时候，是有多大的决心。你还会听到群众，还有志愿者，他们上门挨家挨户的进行竞选。
我要感谢每位参加这次选举的人，不管你是从第一天就投票了，还是一直等待了很长的时间才投的票。当然了，我们要解决这个排队投票的问题。不管你是自己上门投的票，还是打电话投的票，不管你是投了给我，还是投给罗姆尼，你的声音都被大家听到了，并且你对我们国家做出了某些改变，刚刚我跟罗姆尼通了电话，我祝贺他在这个艰难卓绝的战役当中所取得的胜利。
如果没有他，今天我就不会站在这里，如果没有20年前跟我结婚的妻子，今天我就不会站在这里。我要跟大家说，michelle，我比以前更加爱你，我更加自豪，因为我看到全国人民也十分热爱你这位第一夫人，我感到十分自豪。

That’s what makes America great. (Cheers, applause.)I am hopeful tonight because I have seen this spirit at work in America. I’v e seen it in the family business whose owners would rather cut their own pay than lay off their neighbors and in the workers who would rather cut back their hours than see a friend lose a job. I’ve seen it in the soldiers who re-enlist after losing a limb and in those SEALs who charged up the stairs into darkness and danger because they knew there was a buddy behind them watching their back. (Cheers, applause.) I’ve seen it on the shores of New Jersey and New Y ork, where leaders from every party and level of government have swept aside their differences to help a community rebuild from the wreckage of a terrible storm. (Cheers, applause.)And I saw it just the other day in Mentor, Ohio, where a father told the story of his 8-year-old daughter whose long battle with leukemia nearly cost their family everything had it not been for health care reform passing just a few months before the insurance company was about to stop paying for her care. (Cheers, applause.) I had an opportunity to not just talk to the father but meet this incredible daughter of his. And when he spoke to the crowd, listening to that father’s story, every parent in that room had tears in their eyes because we knew that little girl could be our own.And I know that every American wants her fu ture to be just as bright. That’s who we are. That’s the country I’m so proud to lead as your president. (Cheers, applause.)And tonight, despite all the hardship we’ve been through, despite all the frustrations of Washington, I’ve never been more hopeful about our future. (Cheers, applause.) I have never been more hopeful about America. And I ask you to sustain that hope.AUDIENCE MEMBER: We got your back, Mr. President!enormity of the tasks ahead or the road blocks that stand in our path. I’m not talking about the wishful idealism that allows us to just sit on the sidelines or shirk from a fight. I have always believed that hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keep reaching, to keep working, to keep fighting. (Cheers, applause.)America, I believe we can build on the progress we’ve made an d continue to fight for new jobs and new opportunities and new security for the middle class. I believe we can keep the promise of our founding, the idea that if you’re willing to work hard, it doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from or what you look like or where you love (ph). It doesn’t matter whether you’re black or white or Hispanic or Asian or Native American or young or old or rich or poor, abled, disabled, gay or straight. (Cheers, applause.) You can make it here in America if you’re willi ng to try.(Cheers, applause.)I believe we can seize this future together because we are not as divided as our politics suggests. We’re not as cynical as the pundits believe. We are greater than the sum of our individual ambitions and we remain more than a collection of red states and blue states. We are, and forever will be, the United States of America. (Cheers, applause.)And together, with your help and God’s grace, we will continue our journey forward and remind the world just why it is that we live in the greatest nation on earth.

最新奥巴马竞选连任获胜演讲全文
奥巴马2012竞选连任获胜演讲全文奥巴马2012竞选连任获胜演讲全文Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much.Tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its own destiny, the task of perfecting our union moves forward.It moves forward because of you. It moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that has triumphed over war and depression, the spirit that has lifted this country from the depths of despair to the great heights of hope, the belief that while each of us will pursue our own individual dreams, we are an American family, and we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people.Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America, the best is yet to come.I want to thank every American who participated in this election.Whether you voted for the very first time or waited in line for a very long time, by the way, we have to fix that.Whether you pounded the pavement or picked up the phone, whether you held an Obama sign or a Romney sign, you made your voice heard and you made a difference. I just spoke with Governor Romney and I congratulated him and Paul Ryan on a hard-fought campaign.We may have battled fiercely, but it’s only because we love this country deeply and we care so strongly about its future. From George to Lenore to their son Mitt, the Romney family has chosen to give back to America through public service. And that is a legacy that we honor and applaud tonight.In the weeks ahead, I also look forward to sitting down with Governor Romney to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward.I want to thank my friend and partner of the last four years, America’s happy warrior, the best vice president anybody could ever hope for, Joe Biden.And I wouldn’t be the man I am today without the woman who agreed to m arry me 20 years ago.Let me say this publicly. Michelle, I have never loved you more. I have never been prouder to watch the rest of America fall in love with you too as our nation’s first lady.Sasha and Malia—before our very eyes, you’re growing up to become two strong, smart, beautiful young women, just like your mom.And I am so proud of you guys. But I will say that for now, one dog’s probably enough.To the best campaign team and volunteers in the history of politics (cheers, applause) — the best — the best ever — (cheers, applause) — some of you were new this time around, and some of you have been at my side since the very beginning.But all of you are family. No matter what you do or where you go from here, you will carry the memory of the history we made together. And you will have the lifelong appreciation of a grateful president. Thank you for believing all the way to every hill, to every valley.You lifted me up the whole day, and I will always be grateful for everything that you’ve done and all the incredible work that you’ve put in.I know that political campaigns can sometimes seem small, even silly. And that provides plenty of fodder for the cynics who tell us that politics is nothing more than a contest of egos or the domain of special interests. But if you ever get the chance to talk to folks who turned out at our rallies and crowded along a rope line in a high school gym or — or saw folks working late at a campaign office in some tiny county far away from home, you’ll discover something else. You’ll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who’s working his way through college and wants to make sure every child has that same opportunity.You’ll hear the pride in the voice of a volunteer who’s going door to door because her brother was finally hired when the local auto plant added another shift.You’ll hear the deep patriotism in the voice of a military spouse who’s working the phones late at night to make sure that no one who fights for this country ever has to fight for a job or a roof over their head when they come home.That’s why we do this. That’s what politics can be. That’s why elections matter. It’s not small, it’s big. It’s important. Democracy in a nation of 300 million can be noisy and messy and complicated. We have our own opinions. Each of us has deeply held beliefs. And when we go through tough times, when we make big decisions as a country, it necessarily stirs passions, stirs up controversy. That won’t change after tonight. And it should n’t. These arguments we have are a mark of our liberty, and we can never forget that as we speak, people in distant nations are risking their lives right now just for a chance to argue about the issues that matter — the chance to cast their ballots like we did today.But despite all our differences, most of us share certain hopes for America’s future. We want our kids to grow up in a country where they have access to the best schools and the best teachers (cheers, applause) — a country that lives up to its legacy as the global leader in technology and discovery and innovation —(scattered cheers, applause) — with all the good jobs and new businesses that follow. We want our children to live in an America that isn’t burdened by debt, that isn’t weakened up by inequality, that isn’t threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet.We want to pass on a country that’s safe and respected and admired around the world, a nation that is defended by the strongest military on earth and the best troops this — this world has ever known —(cheers, applause) — but also a country that moves with confidence beyond this time of war to shape a peace that is built on the promise of freedom and dignity for every human being. We believe in a generous America, in a compassionate America, in a tolerant America open to the dreams of animmigrant’s daughter who studies in our schools and pledges to our flag — (cheers, applause) —to the young boy on the south side of Chicago who sees a life beyond the nearest street corner .— (cheers, applause) —to the furniture worker’s child in North Carolina who wants to become a doctor or a scientist, an engineer or an entrepreneur, a diplomat or even a president. That’s the future we hope for. That’s the vision we share. That’s where we need to go —forward. That’s where we need to go.Now, we will disagree, sometimes fiercely, about how to get there. As it has for more than two centuries, progress will come in fits and starts. It’s not always a straight line. It’s not always a smooth path. By itself, the recognition that we have common hopes and dream s won’t end all the gridlock, or solve all our problems or substitute for the painstaking work of building consensus and making the difficult compromises needed to move this country forward. But that common bond is where we must begin. Our economy is recovering. A decade of war is ending. A long campaign is now over.And whether I earned your vote or not, I have listened to you. I have learned from you. And you’ve made me a better president. And with your stories and your struggles, I return to the White House more determined and more inspired than ever about the work there is to do and the future that lies ahead.Tonight you voted for action, not politics as usual. You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours. And in the coming weeks and months, I am looking forward to reaching out and working with leaders of both parties to meet the challenges we can only solve together — reducing our deficit, reforming out tax code, fixing our immig ration system, freeing ourselves from foreign oil. We’ve got more work to do.But that doesn’t mean your work is done. The role of citizens in our democracy does not end with your vote. America’s never been about what can be done for us; it’s about what can be done by us together, through the hard and frustrating but necessary work of self- government. That’s the principle we were founded on. This country has more wealth than any nation, but that’s not what makes us rich. We have the most powerful militar y in history, but that’s not what makes us strong. Our university, our culture are all the envy of the world, but that’s not what keeps the world coming to our shores. What makes America exceptional are the bonds that hold together the most diverse nation on earth, the belief that our destiny is shared — that this country only works when we accept certain obligations to one another and to future generations, so that the freedom which so many Americans have fought for and died for come with responsibilities as well as rights, and among those are love and charity and duty and patriotism. That’s what makes America great.I am hopeful tonight because I have seen this spirit at work in America. I’ve seen it in the family business whose owners would rather cut their own pay than lay off their neighbors and in the workers who would rather cut back their hours than see a friend lose a job.

And when he spoke to the crowd, listening to that father’s story, every par ent in that room had tears in their eyes because we knew that little girl could be our own. And I know that every American wants her future to be just as bright. That’s who we are. That’s the country I’m so proud to lead as your president.And tonight, despite all the hardship we’ve been through, despite all the frustrations of Washington, I’ve never been more hopeful about our future.I have never been more hopeful about America. And I ask you to sustain that hope.I’m not talking about blind optimi sm, the kind of hope that just ignores the enormity of the tasks ahead or the roadblocks that stand in our path. I’m not talking about the wishful idealism that allows us to just sit on the sidelines or shirk from a fight. I have always believed that hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keep reaching, to keep working, to keep fighting.America, I believe we can build on the progress we’ve made and continue to fight for new jobs and new opportunities and new security for the middle class.

精选奥巴马当选总统两次演讲全文【中英对照】
奥巴马第一次获胜演讲中英对照《Change Has Come To America》《美国的变革时代已经到来》Hello, Chicago.芝加哥的市民们，你们好！If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.It’s the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different; that their voice could be that difference.如果还有人对在美国是否凡事皆有可能这一点存疑，还有人怀疑美国奠基者的梦想在我们所处的时代是否依然鲜活，还有人质疑我们的民主制度的力量，那么今晚，这些问题都有了答案。
这是设在学校和教堂的投票站前排起的前所未见的长队给出的答案；是等了三四个小时的选民所给出的答案，其中许多人都是有生以来第一次投票，因为他们认定这一次肯定会不一样，认为自己的声音会是这次大选有别于以往之所在。

我们应该在今晚对这种精神表示尊敬和赞扬。
（掌声）未来这几周我也希望和罗姆尼一起来讨论怎样使我们的国家不断前进。
（掌声）我要感谢我过去四年的朋友和搭档--美国的快乐战士、美国历史上最好的副总统：乔-拜登。
（掌声）当然，如果没有20年前跟我结婚的妻子，今天我就不会站在这里。
（掌声）我要跟大家说，米歇尔，我比以前更加爱你（掌声），我更加自豪，因为我看到全国人民也十分热爱你这位第一夫人，我感到十分自豪。
（掌声）萨沙，玛利亚（掌声），在我们大家的眼里，你们一天天在成长，如今已经出落成了像你们妈妈一样坚强、美丽、有才华的年轻人，（掌声）我也为你们感到骄傲。
但是目前我觉得给你们养一条宠物狗就够了。
（笑声）我还要感谢我的竞选团队和志愿者，你们是历史上最棒的。

2012年美国大选奥巴马胜选演说
Transcript of President Obama’s Victory SpeechNovember 7, 2012PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much. (Sustained cheers, applause.)Tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its own destiny, the task of perfecting our union moves forward. (Cheers, applause.)It moves forward because of you. It moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that has triumphed over war and depression, the spirit that has lifted this country from the depths of despair to the great heights of hope, the belief that while each of us will pursue our own individual dreams, we are an American family, and we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people. (Cheers, applause.)Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America, the best is yet to come. (Cheers, applause.) I want to thank every American who participated in this election. (Cheers, applause.) Whether you voted for the very first time — (cheers) — or waited in line for a very long time —(cheers) —by the way, we have to fix that. (Cheers, applause.) Whether you pounded the pavement or picked up the phone — (cheers, applause) — whether you held an Obama sign or a Romney sign, you made your voice heard and you made a difference. (Cheers, applause.)I just spoke with Governor Romney and I congratulated him and Paul Ryan on a hard-fought campaign. (Cheers, applause.) We may have battled fiercely, but it’s only because we love this country deeply and we care so strongly about its future. From George to Lenore to their son Mitt, the Romney family has chosen to give back to America through public service. And that is a legacy that we honor and applaud tonight. (Cheers, applause.) In the weeks ahead, I also look forward to sitting down with Governor Romney to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward.(Cheers, applause.)I want to thank my friend and partner of the last four years, America’s happy warrior, the best vice president anybody could ever hope for, Joe Biden. (Cheers, applause.)And I wouldn’t be the man I am today without the woman who agreed to marry me 20 years ago. (Cheers, applause.) Let me say this publicly. Michelle, I have never loved you more. (Cheers, applause.) I have never been prouder to watch the rest of America fall in love with you too as our nation’s first lady. (Che ers, applause.)Sasha and Malia — (cheers, applause) —before our very eyes, you’re growing up to become two strong, smart, beautiful young women, just like your mom. (Cheers, applause.) And I am so proud of you guys. But I will say that for now, one dog’s probably enough. (Laughter.)To the best campaign team and volunteers in the history of politics — (cheers, applause) —the best — the best ever — (cheers, applause) — some of you were new this time around, and some of you have been at my side since the very beginning.(Cheers, applause.) But all of you are family. No matter what you do or where you go from here, you will carry the memory of the history we made together. (Cheers, applause.) And you will have the lifelong appreciation of a grateful president. Thank you for believing all the way — (cheers, applause) — to every hill, to every valley. (Cheers, applause.) You lifted me up the whole day, and I will always be grateful for everything that you’ve done and all the incredible work that you’ve put in. (Cheers, applause.)I know that political campaigns can sometimes seem small, even silly. And that provides plenty of fodder for the cynics who tell us that politics is nothing more than a contest of egos or the domain of special interests. But if you ever get the chance to talk to folks who turned out at our rallies and crowded along a rope line in a high school gym or —or saw folks working late at a campaign office in some tiny county far away from home, you’ll discover something else.You’ll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who’s working his way through college and wants to make sure every child has that same opportunity. (Cheers, applause.) You’ll hear the pride in the voice of a volunteer who’s going door to door because her brother was finally hired when the local auto plant added another shift. (Cheers, applause.)You’ll hear the deep patriotism in the voice of a military spouse who’s working the phones late at night to make sure that no one who fights for this country ever has to fight for a job or a roof over their head when they come home. (Cheers, applause.)That’s why we do this. That’s what politics can be. That’s why elections matter. It’s not small, it’s big. It’s important. Democracy in a nation of 300 million can be noisy and messy and complicated. We have our own opinions. Each of us has deeply held beliefs. And when we go through tough times, when we make big decisions as a country, it necessarily stirs passions, stirs up controversy. That won’t change after t onight. And it shouldn’t. These arguments we have are a mark of our liberty, and we can never forget that as we speak, people in distant nations are risking their lives right now just for a chance to argue about the issues that matter — (cheers, applause) — the chance to cast their ballots like we did today.But despite all our differences, most of us share certain hopes for America’s future.We want our kids to grow up in a country where they have access to the best schools and the best teachers — (cheers, applause) — a country that lives up to its legacy as the global leader in technology and discovery and innovation — (scattered cheers, applause) — with all of the good jobs and new businesses that follow.We want our children to live in an America that isn’t burdened by debt, that isn’t weakened up by inequality, that isn’t threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet. (Cheers, applause.)We want to pass on a country that’s safe and respected and admired around the world, a nation that is defended by the strongest military on earth and the best troops this — this world has ever known — (cheers, applause) — but also a country that moves with confidence beyond this time of war to shape a peace that is built on the promise of freedom and dignity for every human being.We believe in a generous America, in a compassionate America, in a tolerant America open to the dreams of an immigrant’s daughter who studies in our schools and pledges to our flag — (cheers, applause) — to the young boy on the south side of Chicago who sees a life beyond the nearest street corner — (cheers, applause) —to the furniture worker’s child in North Carolina who wants to become a doctor or a scientist, an engineer or an entrepreneur, a diplomat or even a president.That’s the — (cheers, applause) —that’s the future we hope for.(Cheers, applause.) That’s the vision we share. That’s where we need to go — forward. (Cheers, applause.) That’s where we need to go. (Cheers, applause.)Now, we will disagree, sometimes fiercely, about how to get there. As it has for more than two centuries, progress will come in fits and starts. It’s not always a straight line. It’s not always a smooth path. By itself, the recognition that we have common hopes and dreams won’t end all the gridl ock, resolve all our problems or substitute for the painstaking work of building consensus and making the difficult compromises needed to move this country forward.But that common bond is where we must begin. Our economy is recovering. A decade of war is ending. (Cheers, applause.) A long campaign is now over. (Cheers, applause.) And whether I earned your vote or not, I have listened to you. I have learned from you. And you’ve made me a better president. And with your stories and your struggles, I return to the White House more determined and more inspired than ever about the work there is to do and the future that lies ahead. (Cheers, applause.)Tonight you voted for action, not politics as usual. (Cheers, applause.) You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours.And in the coming weeks and months, I am looking forward to reaching out and working with leaders of both parties to meet the challenges we can only solve together — reducing our deficit, reforming out tax code, fixing our immigration system, f reeing ourselves from foreign oil. We’ve got more work to do. (Cheers, applause.)But that doesn’t mean your work is done. The role of citizens in our democracy does not end with your vote. America’s never been about what can be done for us; it’s about wh at can be done by us together, through the hard and frustrating but necessary work of self- government. (Cheers, applause.) That’s the principle we were founded on.This country has more wealth than any nation, but that’s not what makes us rich. We have t he most powerful military in history, but that’s not what makes us strong. Our university, our culture are all theexceptional are the bonds that hold together the most diverse nation on Earth, the belief that our destiny is shared —(cheers, applause) —that this country only works when we accept certain obligations to one another and to future generations, so that the freedom which so many Americans have fought for and died for come with responsibilities as well as rights, and among those are love and charity and duty and patriotism. That’s what makes America great. (Cheers, applause.)I am hopeful tonight because I have seen this spirit at work in America. I’v e seen it in the family business whose owners would rather cut their own pay than lay off their neighbors and in the workers who would rather cut back their hours than see a friend lose a job. I’ve seen it in the soldiers who re-enlist after losing a limb and in those SEALs who charged up the stairs into darkness and danger because they knew there was a buddy behind them watching their back. (Cheers, applause.) I’ve seen it on the shores of New Jersey and New Y ork, where leaders from every party and level of government have swept aside their differences to help a community rebuild from the wreckage of a terrible storm. (Cheers, applause.)And I saw it just the other day in Mentor, Ohio, where a father told the story of his 8-year-old daughter whose long battle with leukemia nearly cost their family everything had it not been for health care reform passing just a few months before the insurance company was about to stop paying for her care. (Cheers, applause.) I had an opportunity to not just talk to the father but meet this incredible daughter of his. And when he spoke to the crowd, listening to that father’s story, every parent in that room had tears in their eyes because we knew that little girl could be our own.And I know that every American wants her fu ture to be just as bright. That’s who we are. That’s the country I’m so proud to lead as your president. (Cheers, applause.)And tonight, despite all the hardship we’ve been through, despite all the frustrations of Washington, I’ve never been more hopeful about our future. (Cheers, applause.) I have never been more hopeful about America. And I ask you to sustain that hope.AUDIENCE MEMBER: We got your back, Mr. President!enormity of the tasks ahead or the road blocks that stand in our path. I’m not talking about the wishful idealism that allows us to just sit on the sidelines or shirk from a fight. I have always believed that hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keep reaching, to keep working, to keep fighting. (Cheers, applause.)America, I believe we can build on the progress we’ve made an d continue to fight for new jobs and new opportunities and new security for the middle class. I believe we can keep the promise of our founding, the idea that if you’re willing to work hard, it doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from or what you look like or where you love (ph). It doesn’t matter whether you’re black or white or Hispanic or Asian or Native American or young or old or rich or poor, abled, disabled, gay or straight. (Cheers, applause.) You can make it here in America if you’re willi ng to try.(Cheers, applause.)I believe we can seize this future together because we are not as divided as our politics suggests. We’re not as cynical as the pundits believe. We are greater than the sum of our individual ambitions and we remain more than a collection of red states and blue states. We are, and forever will be, the United States of America. (Cheers, applause.)And together, with your help and God’s grace, we will continue our journey forward and remind the world just why it is that we live in the greatest nation on earth. (Cheers, applause.) Thank you, America. (Cheers, applause.) God bless you. God bless these United States. (Cheers, applause.)。

2012年奥巴马胜选演讲Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much. Tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its own destiny to perfect our union moves forward. (Applause)非常感谢你们。
今夜，在当年的殖民地赢得了决定自己命运的权利200多年以后，让美利坚合众国更加完美的任务又向前推进了一步。
It moves forward because of you. It moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that triumphs over war an depression. The spirit that has lifted the spirit from the depths of despair to the great heights of hope. The belief that while each of us will pursue our own individual dreams we are an American family and we will rise and fall as one nation, and as one people. (Applause)这一进程是因为你们而向前推进的，因为你们再次确认了那种使美国胜利克服了战争和萧条的精神，那种使美国摆脱绝望的深渊并走向希望的最高点的精神，以及那种虽然我们每个人都在追求自己的个人梦想、但我们同属一个美国大家庭、并作为一个国家和民族共同进退的信仰。
Tonight in this election you the American people reminded us that while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America the best is yet to come. (Applause)今夜，在此次选举中，你们这些美国人民提醒我们，虽然我们的道路一直艰难，虽然我们的旅程一直漫长，但我们已经让自己振作起来，我们已经发起反击，我们在自己内心深处知道，对美利坚合众国来说，最美好一切属于未来。
2012年奥巴马胜选演讲全文(中英)
如果不是那位20年前同意嫁给我的女性，我不会成为今天的我。请让我公开说出下面这段话：米切尔，我对你的爱无以复加，我无比骄傲地看到其他美国人也爱上了你这位我们国家的第一夫人。萨沙和玛利亚，在我们所有人的见证下你们正成长为两个坚强、聪明和美丽的年轻女性，就像你们的妈妈一样。我十分以你们为荣。不过我要说的是，眼下家里养一条狗或许已经够了。
我要对罗姆尼州长说几句话，我对他和保罗?莱恩在这次竞争激烈的选举中的表现表示祝贺。我们可能争夺得很激烈，但这仅仅是因为我们深爱着这个国家以及我们如此强烈地关心着它的未来。从乔治到勒诺到他们的儿子米特，罗姆尼家族选择了通过公共服务来回报美国，那是一种我们今夜表示敬重和赞许的遗产。我期待着今后几周能与罗姆尼州长坐下来讨论一下我们可以从何处着手一起努力将美国推向前进。
You'll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who's working his way throughcollege and wants to make sure every child has that same opportunity. You'll hear the pride in thevoice of a volunteer who's going door to door because her brother was finally hired when the localauto plant added another shift.

2012年奥巴马获胜演讲谢谢，非常感谢。
200多年前，美国第一个殖民地掌握了自己的命运，开始了这个国家的前进之旅。
美国的前进都是因为你们。
因为你们不断重申那种帮助我们在过去战胜了战事及经济颓势的精神。
这种精神将我们的国家拖出绝望的深渊，将其推向希望的彼岸。
我们始终相信：每一个人都可以追求自己的梦想；美国是一个大家庭；团结起来我们就能胜利，分裂只能导致我们失败。
今夜，在这场选举中，你们提醒我们：尽管我们的道路漫长而艰巨，但是我们已经重塑信心，予以反击。
我们在内心中深深的知道最棒的美国将要来临。
我想感谢每一位参与选举的美国民众。
不管你是从第一天就投票了，还是一直等待了很长的时间才投的票（当然了，我们要解决这个排队投票的问题）；不管你是自己去投票点投的票，还是打电话投的票；不管你是投了给我，还是投给罗姆尼；你的声音都被大家听到了，并且你对我们国家做出了某些改变。
刚刚我跟罗姆尼通了电话，我祝贺他和保罗在这个艰苦卓绝的战役中所取得的胜利。
我们这场战役十分激烈，但是这正是因为我们深爱着这个国家，并且我们十分在意它的未来。
罗姆尼的整个家庭，孙子辈，孩子辈，都通过公共服务在支持着美国。
我们应该在今晚对这种精神表示尊敬和赞扬。
未来这几周我也希望和罗姆尼一起来讨论怎样使我们的国家不断前进。
我要感谢我过去四年的朋友和搭档——美国的快乐战士、美国历史上最好的副总统：乔-拜登。

我要跟大家说，米歇尔，我比以前更加爱你，我更加自豪，因为我看到全国人民也十分热爱你这位第一夫人，我感到十分自豪。
萨沙，玛利亚，在我们大家的眼里，你们一天天在成长，如今已经出落成了像你们妈妈一样坚强、美丽、有才华的年轻人，我也为你们感到骄傲。
但是目前我觉得给你们养一条宠物狗就够了。
我还要感谢我的竞选团队和志愿者，你们是历史上最棒的。
你们当中有的人是新来的，有的人从一开始就一直伴我左右。

I want to thank every American who participated in this election. Whether you voted for the very first time or waited in line for a very long time – by the way, we have to fix that whether you pounded the pavement or picked up the phone, whether you held an Obama sign or a Romney sign, you made your voice heard and you made a difference.
我还要感谢我的竞选团队和志愿者，你们是历史上最棒的。你们当中有的人是新来的，有的人从一开始就一直伴我左右。

我知道政治竞选有时候看起来可能很琐碎，甚至愚蠢。不少批评家借此攻击政治不过是利益集团冲突或是用来自我炫耀。但要是你们真有机会，去和参加竞选集会的人们聊一聊，去和体育场排队投票的选民聊一聊，或是亲眼看一看那些远离家人彻夜工作的志愿者们，你们的印象定会有所改观。
