我的竞选经理大卫?普劳夫(David Plouffe)、首席策略师大卫?艾克斯罗德(David Axelrod)以及政治史上最好的竞选团队--是你们成就了今天,我永远感激你们为实现今天的成就所做出的牺牲。
But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to – it belongs to you.
我刚刚接到了麦凯恩参议员极具风度的致电。他在这场大选中经过了长时间的努力奋斗,而他为自己所深爱的这个国家奋斗的Байду номын сангаас间更长、过程更艰辛。他为美国做出了我们大多数人难以想像的牺牲,我们的生活也因这位勇敢无私的领袖所做出的贡献而变得更美好。我向他和佩林州长所取得的成绩表示祝贺,我也期待着与他们一起在未来的岁月中为复兴这个国家的希望而共同努力。
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。
It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled – Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America.

奥巴马发表讲话(中英文)当地时间4月15日,美国波士顿马拉松比赛终点线附近发生爆炸,目前造成至少3人死亡141人受伤。

美国总统奥巴马在爆炸发生后3个多小时后发表全国电视讲话。

以下为全文内容:Good afternoon, everybody. Earlier today, I was briefed by my homeland security team on. We're continuing to monitor and respond to the situation as it unfolds. And I've directed the full resources of the federal government to help state and local authorities protect our people, increase security around the United States as necessary, and investigate what happened.大家下午好。

我刚刚听取了了国土安全局就波士顿爆炸事件的汇报。

我们将继续随情况发展进行监察并作出反应。

我已下令联邦政府动用全部资源,协助州和地方当局保护人民的安全,在全美提高必要的安保水平,并调查事件真相。

The American people will say a prayer for Boston tonight. And Michelle and I send our deepest thoughts and prayers to the families of the victims in the wake of this senseless loss.美国人民今晚会为波士顿祈祷。

米歇尔和我把我们最深切的思念和祈祷传递给受难者及其家属,对他们失去亲人表示哀悼。

We don't yet have all the answers. But we do know that multiple people have been wounded, some gravely, in explosions at the Boston Marathon.我们尚未知晓所有情况。

奥巴马夫人演讲全文中文翻译[新版]

以下是演讲全文中文翻译:非常感谢,伊莲……我们非常感谢来自你家庭的服务和牺牲,我们永远支持你。

过去的几年来,借由作为第一夫人的非凡殊荣,我几乎游遍了整个美国。

而无论我去到哪里,从我所见到的人们,所听到的故事中,我都看到了最真切的美国精神。

在人们对我和我的家庭,特别是我的女儿们那难以置信的友善和热情中,我看到了它。

在一个濒临破产的学区的教师们不收分文、坚持执教的誓言中,我看到了它。

在人们在突如其来的紧急召唤下化身英雄,纵身扑向灾害去拯救他人……飞过整个国家去扑灭大火……驱车数小时去援助被淹没的城镇时,我看到了它。

在我们身着军装的男女军人和自豪的军属身上……在受伤的战士们告诉我他们不仅会再次站立行走,而是会奔跑,甚至参加马拉松时……在一位于阿富汗因炸弹而失明的年轻人―……为了我所做的和我还将要做的,我宁愿失去我的眼睛一百次。

‖这样轻描淡写的话语中,我看到了它。

每一天,我所见到的人们都鼓舞着我……每一天,他们都令我骄傲……每一天,他们都在提醒我,能够生活在这地球上最伟大的国度中是多么的幸福。

成为诸位的第一夫人,是我的荣耀和幸运……但当我们四年前首次聚在一起的时候,我仍对我们即将展开的旅程心怀疑虑。

对我丈夫心中的祖国愿景,我满怀信心……对他将成为一位出色的总统,我也深信不疑……但是就像所有的母亲一样,我也曾担心如果他当选,这对我们的女儿们意味着什么。

身处万众瞩目的聚光灯下,我们要如何让他们保持脚踏实地?当他们被迫离开从小熟悉的家、学校、和朋友时,会有什么感受?在搬到华盛顿之前,我们的生活充满简单的快乐……周六参加足球赛,周日则在祖母家……还有巴拉克和我的约会之夜,我们要么出去晚餐,要么去看场电影,因为作为一个筋疲力尽的老妈,我实在没法同时去晚餐和电影还不打瞌睡。

说真话,我爱我们为女儿们所创造的生活……我深爱和我一起创造这生活的男人……而且我不愿意让这一切因为他当了总统而发生变化。

我爱的就是巴拉克原来的样子。

美国总统奥巴马就职演说中英文对照Text of President Barack Obamas inaugural address on Tuesday, as prepared for delivery and released by the Presidential Inaugural Committee.Barack Obama takes the Oath of Office as the 44th President of the United States as he is sworn in by US Chief Justice John Roberts with his wife Michelle by his side during the inauguration ceremony in Washington, January 20, 2009. Obama became the first African-American president in US history. [Agencies]OBAMA: My fellow citizens:I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bushfor his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because we the people have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebears, and true to our founding documents.So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land, a nagging fear that Americas decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America, they will be met.On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.。

It’s the answer told by lines that stretch ed around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen, by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different, that their voices could be that difference.它的答案告诉在学校和教堂周围,排着长长的数字这个国家从来没有见过,又等了三个小时,四个小时的人们,许多第一次在他们的生活,因为他们认为,这次一定是不同的,他们的声音可能是不同。

Obama奥巴马感恩节演讲中英对照第一篇:Obama奥巴马感恩节演讲中英对照Good morning.Nearly 150 years ago, in one of the darkest years of our nation's history, President Abraham Lincoln set aside the last Thursday in November as a day of Thanksgiving.America was split by Civil War.But Lincoln said in his first Thanksgiving decree(颁布命令)that difficult times made it even more appropriate for our blessings to be(and I quote), “gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and one voice by the whole American people.”This week, the American people came together with families and friends to carry on this distinctly American tradition.We gave thanks for loved ones and for our lasting pride in our communities and our country.We took comfort in good memories while looking forward to the promise of change.But this Thanksgiving also takes place at a time of great trial for our people.Across the country, there were empty seats at the table, as brave Americans continue to serve in harm’s way from the mountains of Afghanistan to the deserts of Iraq.We honor and give thanks for their sacrifice, and stand by the families who endure their absence with such dignity and resolve.At home, we face an economic crisis of historic proportions.More and more Americans are worried about losing a job or making their mortgage payment.Workers are wondering if next month's paycheck will pay next month's bills.Retirees are watching their savings disappear, and students are struggling with the cost of tuition.It's going to take bold and immediate action to confront this crisis.That's why I'm committed to forging a new beginning from the moment I take office as President of the UnitedStates.Earlier this week, I announced my economic team.This talented and dedicated group is already hard at work crafting an Economic Recovery Plan that will create or save 2.5 million new jobs, while making the investments we need to fuel long-term economic growth and stability.But this Thanksgiving, we're reminded that the renewal of our economy won't come from policies and plans alone.It will take the hard work, innovation, service, and strength of the American people.I've seen this strength firsthand over many months--in workers who are ready to power new industries, and farmers and scientists who can tap new sources of energy;in teachers who stay late after school, and parents who put in that extra hour reading to their kids;in young Americans enlisting in a time of war, seniors who volunteer their time, and service programs that bring hope to the hopeless.It's a testament to our national character that so many Americans took time out this Thanksgiving to help feed the hungry and care for the needy.On Wednesday, I visited a food bank at Saint Columbanus Parish in Chicago.And there, as in so many communities across America, folks pitched in time and resources to give a lift to their neighbors in need.It is this spirit that binds us together as one American family--the belief that we rise and fall as one people;that we want that American Dream not just for ourselves, but for each other.That's the spirit we must summon (召唤)as we make a new beginning for our nation.Times are tough.There are difficult months ahead.But we can renew our nation the same way that we have in the many years since Lincoln's first Thanksgiving: by coming together to overcome adversity;by reaching for--and working for--new horizons of opportunity for all Americans.So this weekend, with one heart, and one voice, the American people can give thanks that a newand brighter day is yet to come.第二篇:obama 奥巴马演讲2010年华盛顿核安全峰会公报全文(中英对照)2010-04-15 来源: 【大中小】我要投稿划词已开启2010年4月13日,首届核安全峰会在华盛顿发表公报。

奥巴马励志演讲稿中英

英文原文:Ladies and Gentlemen,It is an honor to stand before you today and share a few thoughts on the power of dreams and the courage to pursue them. As you may know, I have had the privilege of serving as the President of the United States, and during my time in office, I have seen the incredible resilience and determination of the American people. But let me tell you, it all starts with a dream.Dreams are the fuel that powers our souls. They are the light that guides us through the darkest of times. And they are the reason why we rise above our challenges and achieve greatness. In the words of the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., "If you can dream it, you can do it."I remember growing up in a small town in Hawaii, the son of a white father and a black mother. My childhood was filled with dreams, big dreams. I dreamt of becoming a president, of making a difference in the lives of people, of uniting a nation that had been divided for far too long. But dreams alone are not enough. They require courage, perseverance, and hard work.When I first ran for the presidency, I was told that I was too young, too inexperienced, and that I didn't have what it takes to lead. But I didn't let that discourage me. Instead, I chose to embrace the challenge and work even harder. I believed in the power of dreams, and I knew that if I stayed true to my vision, I could make a difference.And so, I embarked on a journey that would change my life and the lives of millions of Americans. We faced obstacles and setbacks along the way, but we never lost sight of our dreams. We fought for healthcare reform, for equality, for justice, and for a more hopeful future. And little by little, we made progress.Today, I stand before you as a testament to the power of dreams and the courage to pursue them. I am not the same man who stood on that stage eight years ago. I have grown, I have learned, and I have beentransformed by the experiences of serving as the President of the United States.But let me remind you, my friends, that this journey does not end with me. It continues with you. Each and every one of you has the power to dream and the courage to pursue those dreams. Whether you aspire to be a doctor, a teacher, an engineer, or an artist, know that your dreams are valid, and they are within your reach.Here are a few lessons I have learned on this journey that I hope will inspire you:1. Believe in Yourself: The first step to pursuing your dreams is to believe in yourself. You are capable of achieving greatness, but you must first believe that you are worthy of it.2. Surround Yourself with Good People: Dreams are hard to achieve alone. Find mentors, friends, and family who will support you and help you along the way.3. Stay True to Your Values: Your dreams should align with your values. Stay true to who you are and what you stand for, and you will never go wrong.4. Be Persistent: Pursuing a dream is not an easy journey. There will be challenges and setbacks, but you must stay persistent. Remember why you started and keep pushing forward.5. Embrace Failure: Failure is not the end, it is a stepping stone. Learn from your mistakes, and use them as fuel to propel you forward.6. Dream Big: Don't settle for anything less than your best. Aim high, and you will be surprised by what you can achieve.7. Help Others: As you pursue your dreams, remember to help others along the way. Your success is not just about you; it is about making a positive impact on the world.Ladies and Gentlemen,The power of dreams and the courage to pursue them is a force that can change the world. It is the force that has driven us as a nation to overcome adversity, to innovate, and to lead. And it is the force that will continue to drive us forward, even as we face new challenges and opportunities.So, I urge you to dream big, to be courageous, and to never give up. Your dreams are not just for you; they are for your family, for your friends, for your community, and for the world. And when you pursue those dreams with all your heart, you will not only achieve success, but you will also inspire others to do the same.Thank you, and may the dreams you chase today lead you to a brighter tomorrow.中文翻译:女士们,先生们,今天能站在这里与大家分享关于梦想的力量以及追求梦想的勇气的思考,我感到非常荣幸。

以下是小编为大家搜集整理的,欢迎借鉴与阅读!奥巴马演讲词中英对照嗨,大家好!你们今天过得怎么样?我现在和弗吉尼亚州阿林顿郡韦克菲尔德高中的学生们在一起,全国各地也有从幼儿园到高三的众多学生们通过电视关注这里,我很高兴你们能共同分享这一时刻。

我知道,对你们中的许多人来说,今天是开学的第一天,你们中的有一些刚刚进入幼儿园或升上初高中,对你们来说,这是在新学校的第一天,因此,假如你们感到有些紧张,那也是很正常的。

我想也会有许多毕业班的学生们正自信满满地准备最后一年的冲刺。

不过,我想无论你有多大、在读哪个年级,许多人都打心底里希望现在还在放暑假,以及今天不用那么早起床。

我可以理解这份心情。

小时候,我们家在印度尼西亚住过几年,而我妈妈没钱送我去其他美国孩子们上学的地方去读书,因此她决定自己给我上课——时间是每周一到周五的凌晨4点半。

显然,我不怎么喜欢那么早就爬起来,很多时候,我就这么在厨房的桌子前睡着了。

每当我埋怨的时候,我妈总会用同一副表情看着我说:“小鬼,你以为教你我就很轻松?”所以,我可以理解你们中的许多人对于开学还需要时间来调整和适应,但今天我站在这里,是为了和你们谈一些重要的事情。

我要和你们谈一谈你们每个人的教育,以及在新的学年里,你们应当做些什么。

我做过许多关于教育的讲话,也常常用到“责任”这个词。

我谈到过教师们有责任激励和启迪你们,督促你们学习。

我谈到过家长们有责任看管你们认真学习、完成作业,不要成天只会看电视或打游戏机。

我也很多次谈到过政府有责任设定高标准严要求、协助老师和校长们的工作,改变在有些学校里学生得不到应有的学习机会的现状。

jobs shed; businesses shutteredOur health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planetThese are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sightsToday I say to you that the challenges we face are real They are serious and they are many They will not be met easily or in a short span of time But know this, America they will be metOn this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discordOn this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politicsWe remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the Godgiven promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happinessIn reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given It must be earned Our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less It has not been the path for the fainthearted forthose who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame Rather, it has been the risktakers, the doers, the makers of things some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedomFor us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new lifeFor us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earthFor us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe SahnTime and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or factionThis is the journey we continue today We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth But the time has come to ask seriously if we are doing all we can to keep that title, if we are doing all we can to build on the progress of past decades and meet the challenges of the futureI believe that if we are to meet the challenges of this new century, we must return to the values that have always sustained our nation: hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotismThese things are old These things are true They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history What is demanded then is a return tothese truths What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult taskThis is the price and the promise of citizenshipThis is the source of our confidence the knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destinyThis is the meaning of our liberty and our creed why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent mall, and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oathSo let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled In the year of America's birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river The capital was abandoned The enemy was advancing The snow was stained with blood At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:"Let it be told to the future worldthat in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survivethat the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet it"America In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generationsThank you God bless you And God bless the United States of America同胞们:今天我站在这里,为眼前的重责大任感到谦卑,对各位的信任心怀感激,对我们先辈的牺牲铭记在心。

这是我在总统职位上的第八次国情咨文,它让我有机会回顾我们共同努力的进展,展望我们未来的挑战和机遇。

八年前,我在这个讲台上,我诚恳地请求你们对我和我们共同的目标而言,我们可以否定分歧,结束政治的互相对抗;我们可以开放我们的心,努力团结一致。

我们并不一定要达成完全共识,但我们应该尽力尊重不同的思想,互相听取,互相学习,而不是把意见分歧作为不可逾越的障碍。

我可以告诉大家现在我们的国家比2009年8年前,更团结,更有信心和希望。

今晚我要回顾这些进展与成功。

第一个进步是,经济复苏。

2009年,我们的经济陷入严重萧条,失业率达到10%,企业倒闭、银行倒闭、房价下跌。

现在,就业率已经恢复到了最高水平,经济增长持续增加,创造了数百万个就业岗位,企业的倒闭和银行倒闭得到了控制,房价也已经恢复到了危机前的水平。

我们必须感谢美国的企业家、工人和家庭,这些家庭涵盖了白人、黑人、亚洲人、拉丁美洲人,这些人的拼搏与努力,是经济复苏的基石。

他们相信美国的经济力量,相信未来将会更好,他们在劳动市场上就业,购买商品和服务,与此同时,美国政府提供了有效的措施,通过减税、增加支出和改革医疗保健,来促进经济增长。

我们还推出了一系列的贸易协定,协助我们的企业更好地参与世界贸易。

第二个进展是,世界在共同抗击恐怖主义方面取得了进展。

去年11月,我们与我们的盟友击败了伊斯兰国在伊拉克和叙利亚的主要堡垒,摧毁了他们最后的抵抗力量并夺回了他们的领土。

在这场战役中,我们看到了我们战士的勇气和决心,他们是我们国家为之骄傲的英雄。

我们还召集了一系列国际会议,来协调我们的全球反恐战略。

我们与全球领袖团结一致,共同打击恐怖主义,并为数百万遭受战争和恐怖分子攻击的人民提供援助。

第三个进步是,我们的社会越来越加包容和多元。

我们通过平等法案支持同性婚姻,赋予LGBTQ社区平等的权利,在这个问题上,我们的社会发生了巨大的转变。

奥巴马(OBAMA)第二任就职演讲全文(英中文稿)

奥巴马就职演讲全文(英/中文稿)MR. OBAMA: Vice President Biden, Mr. Chief Justice, Members of the United States Congress, distinguished guests, and fellow citizens:Each time we gather to inaugurate a president, we bear witness to the enduring strength of our Constitution. We affirm the promise of our democracy. We recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names. What makes us exceptional – what makes us American – is our allegiance to an idea, articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago:―We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.‖Today we continue a never-ending journey, to bridge the meaning of those words with the realities of our time. For history tells us that while these truths may be self-evident, they have never been self-executing; that while freedom is a gift from God, it must be secured by His people here on Earth. The patriots of 1776 did not fight to replace the tyranny of a king with the privileges of a few or the rule of a mob. They gave to us a Republic, a government of, and by, and for the people, entrusting each generation to keep safe our founding creed.For more than two hundred years, we have.Through blood drawn by lash and blood drawn by sword, we learned that no unio n founded on the principles of liberty and equality could survive half-slave and half-free. We made ourselves anew, and vowed to move forward together.Together, we determined that a modern economy requires railroads and highways to speed travel and commerce; schools and colleges to train our workers。

I want to start by thanking President Hu and the Chinese people for the warmth and hospitality that they have shown myself and our delegation since we arrived. We had a wonderful day in Shanghai yesterday, a wonderful discu ssion with China’s young men and women, and I’m looking forward to the conversations we’ll have and the sights that we’ll see here in Beijing over the next two days.奥巴马总统:下午好.首先我要感谢胡主席和中国人民从我们到来后给予我和代表团的热情款待.昨天,我们在上海度过了非常愉快的一天,同中国男女青年进行了一次十分愉快的讨论.我期待着我们今明两天将在北京进行的会谈和景点参观.We meet here at a time when the relationship between the United States and China has never been more important to our collective future. The major challenges of the 2st century, from climate change to nuclear proliferation to economic recovery, are challenges that touch both our nations, and challenges that neither of our nations can solve by acting alone.我们是在美中关系对我们的共同未来具有前所未有的重要性的时刻在这里举行会晤.2世纪的各项重大挑战,无论是气候变化、核扩散还是经济复苏,都与我们两个国家相关,而且哪个国家都不能通过单独行动来对付这些挑战.That’s why the United States welcomes China’s efforts in playing a greater role on the world stage -- a role in which a growing economy is joined by growing responsibilities. And that’s why President Hu and I talked about continuing to build a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive relationship between our nations.这就是为什么美国欢迎中国努力在世界舞台上发挥更大的作用——这个作用意味着伴随经济发展而增长的责任.这也就是为什么胡主席和我都谈到要继续建立积极合作全面的美中关系.As President Hu indicated, we discussed what’s required to sustain this economic recovery so that economic growth is followed by the creation of new jobs and lasting prosperity. So far China’s partnership has proved critical in our effort to pull ourselves out of the worst recession in generations.如胡主席所说,我们讨论了要使经济复苏持续所必须采取的措施,以便使经济增长带来新的就业机会,实现持久繁荣.迄今,与中国的伙伴关系被证明在我们为摆脱几代人以来最严重的衰退所作的努力中至关重要.Going forward, we agreed to advance the pledge made at the G20 summit in Pittsburgh and pursue a strategy of more balanced economic growth -- a strategy where America saves more, spends less, reduces our long-term debt, and where China makes adjustments across a broad range of policies to rebalance its economy and spur domestic demand. This will lead to increased U.S. exports and jobs, on the one hand, and higher living standards in China on the other.展望未来,我们同意推进我们在匹兹堡20国集团峰会上所作的保证,实施经济更平衡增长的策略.根据这一策略,美国要增加储蓄,降低消费,减少长期债务,而中国则要进行各项政策调整以平衡经济,刺激内需.这样,将一方面增加美国的出口和就业机会,另一方面提高中国的生活水平.As President Hu indicated, we also agreed that maintaining open market and free flows of commerce in both our nations will contribute to our shared prosperity. And I was pleased to note the Chinese commitment, made in past statements, to move toward a more market-oriented exchange rate over time. I emphasized in our discussions, and have others in the region, that doing so based on economic fundamentals would make an essential contribution to the global rebalancing effort.如胡主席所说,我们还一致认为,保持我们两国市场的开放和商贸的自由流通将能增进我们的共同繁荣.我很高兴地注意到,中国多次表示了对逐步实现在更大程度上由市场决定汇率的承诺.我在双方以及在与地区其他各方的讨论中强调,这样按照基本经济原理行事将是对全球经济的重新平衡的重大贡献.President Hu and I also made progress on the issue of climate change. As the two largest consumers and producers of energy, there can be no solution to this challenge without the efforts of both China and the United States. That’s why we’ve agreed to a series of important new initiatives in this area. As President Hu indicated, we are creating a joint clean energy research center, and have achieved agreements on energy efficiency, renewable energy, cleaner uses of coal, electric vehicles, and shale gas.胡主席和我在气候变化问题上也取得了进展.作为能源的最大消费国和生产国,没有中美两国的共同努力就无法成功地应对这一挑战.因此我们同意在这一领域采取一系列新的重要行动.胡主席已说明,我们将设立一个清洁能源联合研究中心,我们还就能效、可再生能源、清洁使用煤炭、电动车辆和页岩气等问题达成一致.We also agreed to work toward a successful outcome in Copenhagen. Our aim there, in support of what Prime Minister Rasmussen of Denmark is trying to achieve, is not a partial accord or a political declaration, but rather an accord that covers all of the issues in the negotiations, and one that has immediate operational effect. This kind of comprehensive agreement would be an important step forward in the effort to rally the world around a solution to our climate challenge. And we agreed that each of us would take significant mitigation actions and stand behind these commitments.我们还同意为哥本哈根会议取得成果而努力.为支持丹麦首相拉斯穆森Rasmussen所争取实现的目标,我们将不是致力于一项局部性的协议,也不是一份政治宣言,而是一项包含谈判涉及的所有问题的协议,一项可立即运作的协议.这样的全面协议将使动员全世界共同应对气候挑战的努力向前跨出重要一步.我们同意,双方都将采取重大的减缓行动,坚定地履行这些承诺.On the issue of nonproliferation, President Hu and I discussed our shared commitment to stop the spread of nuclear weapons, and I told him how appreciative I am of China’s support for the global nonproliferation regime as well as the verifiable elimination of North Korea’s nuclear weapons program.在防扩散问题上,胡主席和我讨论了制止核武器扩散的共同承诺,我向胡主席表示了我对中国支持全球防扩散制度和可验证地消除北韩核武器项目的极大赞赏.We agreed on the importance of resuming the six-party talks as soon as possible. As I said in Tokyo, North Korea has a choice: It can continue down the path of confrontation and provocation that has led to less security, less prosperity, and more isolation from the global community, or it can choose to become a full member of the international community, which will give a better life to its people by living up to international obligations and foregoing nuclear weapons.我们一致认为尽快恢复六方会谈是重要的.正如我在东京说过的,北韩面临一个选择:它可以继续沿着对峙挑衅的道路走下去,结果只会是安全更少,繁荣更小,在全球社会中更加孤立;它也可以选择成为国际社会的正式成员,恪守国际义务,放弃核武器,让自己的人民过上更好的生活.In the same way, we agreed that the Islamic Republic of Iran must provide assurances to the international community that its nuclear program is peaceful and transparent. On this point, our two nations and the rest of our P5-plus- partners are unified. Iran has an opportunity to present and demonstrate its peaceful intentions, but if it fails to take this opportunity there will be consequences.同样地,我们也一致认为伊朗伊斯兰共和国必须向国际社会提供保证,保证其核项目是和平而且透明的.在这一点上,我们两国和五常加一的其他伙伴国意见一致.伊朗有此机会展示和表明其和平的目的,但如果它没能利用这次机会,则将面临后果.President Hu and I also discussed our mutual interest in security and stability of Afghanistan and Pakistan. And neither country can or should be used as a base for terrorism, and we agreed to cooperate more on meeting this goal, including bringing about more stable, peaceful relations in all of South Asia.胡锦涛主席和我还讨论了我们对阿富汗和巴基斯坦的安全和稳定的共同利益.这两个国家都不能也不应该成为恐怖分子的基地.我们同意为达到这个目标加深合作,包括在整个南亚建设更稳定、和平的关系.Finally, as I did yesterday in Shanghai, I spoke to President Hu about America’s bedrock beliefs that all men and women possess certain fundamental human rights. Wedo not believe these principles are unique to America, but rather they are universal rights and that they should be available to all peoples, to all ethnic and religious minorities. And our two countries agreed to continue to move this discussion forward in a human rights dialogue that is scheduled for early next year.最后,如同我昨天在上海时一样,我向胡锦涛主席谈了美国的基本信念,即人人都有某些最基本的人权.我们不认为这些原则是美国特有的,它们是普遍的权利.各国人民,各个少数民族和宗教少数派都应该享有.我们两国同意在定于明年年初举行的人权对话中继续推动这种讨论.As President Hu indicated, the United States respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of China. And once again, we have reaffirmed our strong commitment to a one-China policy.正如胡锦涛主席指出的那样,美国尊重中国的主权和领土完整.我们再次重申对一个中国政策的承诺.We did note that while we recognize that Tibet is part of the People’s Republic of China, the United States supports the early resumption of dialogue between the Chinese government and representatives of the Dalai Lama to resolve any concerns and differenc es that the two sides may have. We also applauded the steps that the People’s Republic of China and Taiwan have already taken to relax tensions and build ties across the Taiwan Strait.我们的确指出,尽管我们承认西藏是中华人民共和国的一部分,但美国支持中国政府与达赖喇嘛的代表早日恢复对话,以解决双方存在的担忧和分歧.我们也对中华人民共和国和台湾已经采取的缓和紧张局势和建立海峡两岸联系的步骤表示赞赏.Our own policy, based on the three communiqués and the Taiwan Relations Act, supports the further development of these ties -- ties that are in the interest of both sides, as well as the broader region and the United States.基于美中三个联合公报和台湾关系法,我们自身的政策是支持继续发展这些关系——这些关系有利于双方,有利于更广大的地区和美国.These are just some of the issues that President Hu and I discussed. But we also know that the relationship between our two nations goes far beyond any single issue. In this young century, the jobs we do, the prosperity we build, the environment we protect, the security that we seek, all these things are shared.这些只是胡锦涛主席和我讨论的问题的一部分.但是,我们也知道,我们两国的关系远远超出任何单一问题.置身这个世纪的初期,我们所做的工作,所创建的繁荣,所保护的环境,所寻求的安全——所有这一切都是共同分享的.Given that interconnection, I do not believe that one country’s success must come at the expense of another. That’s why the United States welcomes China as a strong, prosperous and successful member of the community of nations.鉴于这种相互关联,我不认为一个国家的成功必须以牺牲另一个国家的利益为代价.这就是为什么美国欢迎中国成为国际社会中一个强大、繁荣和成功的成员.Our relationship going forward will not be without disagreement or difficulty. But because of our cooperation, both the United States and China are more prosperous and secure. We’ve seen what’s possible when we build upon our mutual interes ts and engage on the basis of equality and mutual respect. And I very much look forward to deepening that engagement and understanding during this trip and in the months and years to come.我们未来的关系不会没有分歧和困难.但由于我们的合作,美国和中国都更繁荣、更安全.我们已经看到,当我们在互利的基础上发展、在平等和相互尊重的基础上往来时能够取得什么样的成果.我非常期待在这次访问中和在未来的岁月里,加深这种交往和理解.。

奥巴马演讲全文(附带翻译)

奥巴马演讲全文:OBAMA: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much.Tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the rightto determine its own destiny, the task of perfecting our unionmoves forward.(APPLAUSE)OBAMA: It moves forward because of you. It moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that has triumphed over war anddepression, the spirit that has lifted this country from the depthsof despair to the great heights of hope, the belief that while eachof us will pursue our own individual dreams, we are an Americanfamily and we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people.(APPLAUSE)Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded usthat while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long,we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, and weknow in our hearts that for the United States of America the bestis yet to come.(APPLAUSE)OBAMA: I want to thank every American who participated in thiselection... (APPLAUSE)... whether you voted for the very first time or waited in linefor a very long time. (APPLAUSE)By the way, we have to fix that.(APPLAUSE)Whether you pounded the pavement or picked up the phone...(APPLAUSE)... whether you held an Obama sign or a Romney sign, you madeyour voice heard and you made a difference.I just spoke with Governor Romney and I congratulated him andPaul Ryan on a hard-fought campaign.(APPLAUSE)We may have battled fiercely, but it's only because we love thiscountry deeply and we care so strongly about its future. FromGeorge to Lenore to their son Mitt, the Romney family has chosen togive back to America through public service and that is the legacythat we honor and applaud tonight.(APPLAUSE)In the weeks ahead, I also look forward to sitting down withGovernor Romney to talk about where we can work together to movethis country forward.(APPLAUSE)I want to thank my friend and partner of the last four years,America's happy warrior, the best vice president anybody could everhope for, Joe Biden.(APPLAUSE)OBAMA: And I wouldn't be the man I am today without the womanwho agreed to marry me 20 years ago.(APPLAUSE)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 lovewith you, too, as our nation's first lady.(APPLAUSE)Sasha and Malia, before our very eyes you're growing up tobecome two strong, smart beautiful young women, just like yourmom.(APPLAUSE)OBAMA: And I'm so proud of you guys. But I will say that for nowone dog's probably enough.(LAUGHTER)To the best campaign team and volunteers in the history ofpolitics... (APPLAUSE)The best. The best ever. Some of you were new this time around,and some of you have been at my side since the very beginning.(APPLAUSE)But all of you are family. No matter what you do or where you gofrom here, you will carry the memory of the history we madetogether and you will have the life-long appreciation of a gratefulpresident. Thank you for believing all the way, through every hill,through every valley.(APPLAUSE)You lifted me up the whole way and I will always be grateful foreverything that you've done and all the incredible work that youput in.(APPLAUSE)I know that political campaigns can sometimes seem small, evensilly. And that provides plenty of fodder for the cynics that tellus that politics is nothing more than a contest of egos or thedomain of special interests. But if you ever get the chance to talkto folks who turned out at our rallies and crowded along a ropeline in a high school gym, or saw folks working late in a campaignoffice in some tiny county far away from home, you'll discoversomething else.OBAMA: You'll hear the determination in the voice of a youngfield organizer who's working his way through college and wants tomake sure every child has that same opportunity.(APPLAUSE)You'll hear the pride in the voice of a volunteer who's goingdoor to door because her brother was finally hired when the localauto plant added another shift. (APPLAUSE)You'll hear the deep patriotism in the voice of a militaryspouse whose working the phones late at night to make sure that noone who fights for this country ever has to fight for a job or aroof over their head when they come home.(APPLAUSE)That's why we do this. That's what politics can be. That's whyelections matter. It's not small, it's big. It's important.Democracy in a nation of 300 million can be noisy and messy andcomplicated. We have our own opinions. Each of us has deeply heldbeliefs.And when we go through tough times, when we make bigdecisions as a country, it necessarily stirs passions, stirs upcontroversy.That won't change after tonight, and it shouldn't. Thesearguments we have are a mark of our liberty. We can never forgetthat as we speak people in distant nations are risking their livesright now just for a chance to argue about the issues that matter,the chance to cast their ballots like we did today.(APPLAUSE)But despite all our differences, most of us share certain hopesfor America's future. We want our kids to grow up in a countrywhere they have access to the best schools and the bestteachers.(APPLAUSE)A country that lives up to its legacy as the global leader intechnology and discovery and innovation, with all the good jobs andnew businesses that follow. OBAMA: We want our children to live in an America that isn'tburdened by debt, that isn't weakened by inequality, that isn'tthreatened by the destructive power of a warming planet.(APPLAUSE)We want to pass on a country that's safe and respected andadmired around the world, a nation that is defended by thestrongest military on earth and the best troops this - this worldhas ever known.(APPLAUSE)But also a country that moves with confidence beyond this timeof war, to shape a peace that is built on the promise of freedomand dignity for every human being. We believe in a generousAmerica, in a compassionate America, in a tolerant America, open tothe dreams of an immigrant's daughter who studies in our schoolsand pledges to our flag.(APPLAUSE)To the young boy on the south side of Chicago who sees a lifebeyond the nearest street corner.(APPLAUSE)To the furniture worker's child in North Carolina who wants tobecome a doctor or a scientist, an engineer or an entrepreneur, adiplomat 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.(APPLAUSE)That's where we need to go.Now, we will disagree, sometimes fiercely, about how to getthere. As it has for more than two centuries, progress will come infits and starts. It's not always a straight line. It's not always asmooth path.By itself, the recognition that we have common hopes and dreamswon't end all the gridlock or solve all our problems or substitutefor the painstaking work of building consensus and making thedifficult compromises needed to move this country forward. But thatcommon bond is where we must begin. Our economy is recovering. Adecade of war is ending. A long campaign is now over.(APPLAUSE)And whether I earned your vote or not, I have listened to you, Ihave learned from you, and you've made me a better president. Andwith your stories and your struggles, I return to the White Housemore determined and more inspired than ever about the work there isto do and the future that lies ahead.(APPLAUSE)Tonight you voted for action, not politics as usual.(APPLAUSE)You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours. And in thecoming weeks and months, I am looking forward to reaching out andworking 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.(APPLAUSE)OBAMA: But that doesn't mean your work is done. The role ofcitizens in our Democracy does not end with your vote. America'snever been about what can be done for us. It's about what can bedone by us together through the hard and frustrating, but necessarywork of self-government. That's the principle we were foundedon. (APPLAUSE)This country has more wealth than any nation, but that's notwhat makes us rich. We have the most powerful military in history,but that's not what makes us strong. Our university, our cultureare all the envy of the world, but that's not what keeps the worldcoming to our shores.What makes America exceptional are the bonds that hold togetherthe most diverse nation on earth.OBAMA: The belief that our destiny is shared; that this countryonly works when we accept certain obligations to one another and tofuture generations. The freedom which so many Americans have foughtfor and died for come with responsibilities as well as rights. Andamong those are love and charity and duty and patriotism. That'swhat makes America great.(APPLAUSE)I am hopeful tonight because I've seen the spirit at work inAmerica. I've seen it in the family business whose owners wouldrather cut their own pay than lay off their neighbors, and in theworkers who would rather cut back their hours than see a friendlose a job.I've seen it in the soldiers who reenlist after losing a limband in those SEALs who charged up the stairs into darkness anddanger because they knew there was a buddy behind them watchingtheir back.(APPLAUSE)I've seen it on the shores of New Jersey and New York, whereleaders from every party and level of government have swept asidetheir differences to help a community rebuild from the wreckage ofa terrible storm.(APPLAUSE)And I saw just the other day, in Mentor, Ohio, where a fathertold the story of his 8-year-old daughter, whose long battle withleukemia nearly cost their family everything had it not been forhealth care reform passing just a few months before the insurancecompany was about to stop paying for her care.(APPLAUSE)I had an opportunity to not just talk to the father, but meetthis incredible daughter of his. And when he spoke to the crowdlistening to that father's story, every parent in that room hadtears in their eyes, because we knew that little girl could be ourown. And I know that every American wants her future to be just asbright. That's who we are. That's the country I'm so proud to leadas your president.(APPLAUSE)OBAMA: And tonight, despite all the hardship we've been through,despite all the frustrations of Washington, I've never been morehopeful about our future. (APPLAUSE)I have never been more hopeful about America. And I ask you tosustain that hope. I'm not talking about blind optimism, the kindof hope that just ignores the enormity of the tasks ahead or theroadblocks that stand in our path. I'm not talking about thewishful idealism that allows us to just sit on the sidelines orshirk from a fight.I have always believed that hope is that stubborn thing insideus that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, thatsomething better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keepreaching, to keep working, to keep fighting. (APPLAUSE)America, I believe we can build on the progress we've made andcontinue to fight for new jobs and new opportunity and new securityfor the middle class. I believe we can keep the promise of ourfounders, the idea that if you're willing to work hard, it doesn'tmatter who you are or where you come from or what you look like orwhere you love. It doesn't matter whether you're black or white orHispanic or Asian or Native American or young or old or rich orpoor, able, disabled, gay or straight, you can make it here inAmerica if you're willing to try.(APPLAUSE)I believe we can seize this future together because we are notas divided as our politics suggests. We're not as cynical as thepundits believe. We are greater than the sum of our individualambitions, and we remain more than a collection of red states andblue states. We are and forever will be the United States ofAmerica. (APPLAUSE)And together with your help and God's grace we will continue ourjourney forward and remind the world just why it is that we live inthe greatest nation on Earth. Thank you, America. God bless you. God bless these UnitedStates. (APPLAUSE)谢谢,谢谢,非常感谢。

Keynote Address at the2004Democratic National Convention:The Audacity of Hope July27,2004On behalf of the great state of Illinois,crossroads of a nation,land of Lincoln,let me express my deepest gratitude for the privilege of addressing this convention.Tonight is a particular honor for me because,let's face it,my presence on this stage is pretty unlikely.My father was a foreign student,born and raised in a small village in Kenya. He grew up herding goats,went to school in a tin-roof shack.His father,my grandfather,was a cook,a domestic s ervan t to the British.But my grandfather had larger dreams for his son.Through hard work and perseverance my father got a scholarship to study in a magical place:America,that shone as a beacon of fr eedom and opportunity to so many who had come before. While studying here,my father met my mother.She was born in a town on the other side of the world,in Kansas.Her father worked on oil rigs and farms through most of the Depression.The day after Pearl Harbor my grandfather s igned up for duty,joined Patton's army and marched across Europe.Back home,my grandmother raised their baby and went to work on a bomber assembly line.After the war,they studied on the GI Bill,bought a house through FHA,and later moved west all the way to Hawaii in search of opportunity.And they,too,had big dreams for their daughter,a common dream,born of two continents.My parents shared not only an improbable love;they shared an abiding faith in the possibilities of this nation.They would give me an African name,Barack, or"blessed,"believing that in a tolerant America your name is no barrier to success. They imagined me going to the best schools in the land,even though they weren't rich, because in a generous America you don't have to be rich to achieve your potential. They are both passed away now.Yet,I know that,on this night,they look down on me with great pride.They stand here,and I stand here today,grateful for the diversity of my heritage, aware that my parents'dreams live on in my two precious daughters.I stand here knowing that my story is part of the larger American story,that I owe a debt to all of those who came before me,and that,in no other country on earth,is my story even possible.Tonight,we gather to affirm the greatness of our nation,not because of the height of our skyscrapers,or the power of our military,or the size of our economy. Our pride is based on a very simple premise,summed up in a declaration made over two hundred years ago,"We hold these truths to be self-evident,that all men are created equal.That they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights. That among these are life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness."That is the true genius of America,a faith in the simple dreams,the insist ence on small miracles.That we can tuck in our children at night and know they are fed and clothed and safe from harm.That we can say what we think,write what we think, without hearing a sudden knock on the door.That we can have an idea and start our own business without paying a bribe or hiring somebody's so n.That we can participate in the political process without fear of retribution,and that our votes will he counted-or at least,most of the time.This year,in this election,we are called to reaffirm our values and commitments,to hold them against a hard reality and see how we are measuring up,to the legacy of our forbearers,and the promise of future generations.And fellow Americans-Democrats,Republicans,Independents-I say to you tonight:we have more work to do.More work to do for the workers I met in Galesburg,Illinois,who are losing their union jobs at the Maytag plant that's moving to Mexico,and now are having to compete with their own children for jobs that pay seven bucks an hour.More to do for the father I met who was losing his job and choking back tears,wondering how he would pay$4,500a month for the drugs his son needs without the health benefits he counted on.More to do for the young woman in East St.Louis,and thousands more like her,who has the grades,has the drive,has the will,but doesn't have the money togo to college.Don't get me wrong.The people I meet in small towns and big cities,in diners and office parks,they don't expect government to solve all their problems.They know they have to work hard to get ahead and they want to.Go into the collar counties around Chicago,and people will tell you they don't want their tax money wasted by a welfare agency or the Pentagon.Go into any inner city neighborhood,and folks will tell you that government alone can't teach kids to learn.They know that parents have to parent,that children can't achieve unless we raise their expectations and turn off the television sets and eradicate the slander that says a black youth with a book is acting white.No,p eople don't expect government to solve all their problems.But they sense, deep in their bones,that with just a slight change in priorities,we can make sure that every child in America has a decent shot at life,and that the doors of opportunity remain open to all.They know we can do better.And they want that choice.A while back,I met a young man named Shamus at the VFW Hall in East Moline, Illinois.He was a good-looking kid,six-two or six-three,clear-eyed,with an easy smile.He told me he'd joined the Marines and was heading to Iraq the following week. As I listened to him explain why he'd enlisted,his absolute faith in our country and its leaders,his devotion to duty and service,I thought this young man was all any of us might hope for in a child.But then I asked myself:Are we serving Shamus as well as he was serving us?I thought of more than900service men and women,sons and daughters,husbands and wives,friends and neighbors,who won’t be returning to their hometowns.I thought of families I had met who were struggling to get by without a loved one's full income,or whose loved ones had returned with a limb missing or with nerves shattered,but who still lacked long-term health benefits because they were reservists.When we send our young men and women into harm's way,we have a solemn obligation not to fudge the numbers or shade the truth about why they're going, to care for their families while they're gone,to tend to the soldiers upon their return, and to never ever go to war without enough troops to win the war,secure the peace,and earn the respect of the world.Now let me be clear.We have real enemies in the world.These enemies must be found.They must be pursued and they must be defeated.John Kerry knows this.And just as Lieutenant Kerry did not hesitate to risk his life to protect the men who served with him in Vietnam,President Kerry will not hesitate one moment to use our military might to keep America safe and secure.John Kerry believes in America.And he knows it's not enough for just some of us to prosper.For alongside our famous individualism,there's another ingredient in the American saga.A belief that we are connected as one people.If there's a child on the south side of Chicago who can't read,that matters to me,even if it's not my child.If there's a senior citizen somewhere who can't pay for her prescription and has to choose between medicine and the rent,that makes my life poorer,even if it's not my grandmother.If there's an Arab American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney or due process,that threatens my civil liberties.It's that fundamental belief-I am my brother's keeper,I am my sister's keeper-that makes this country work.It's what allows us to pursue our individual dreams,yet still come together as a single American family."E pluribus unum."Out of many,one.Yet even as we speak,there are those who are preparing to divide us,the spin masters and negative ad peddlers who embrace the politics of anything goes.Well,I say to them tonight,there's not a liberal America and a conservative America-there's the United States of America.There's not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America;there's the United States of America.The pundits like to slice-and-dice our country into Red States and Blue States;Red States for Republicans,Blue States for Democrats.But I've got news for them,too.We worship an awesome God in the Blue States,and we don't like federal agents poking around our libraries in the Red States.We coach Little League in the Blue States and have gay friends in the Red States.There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq andpatriots who supported it.We are one people,all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes,all of us defending the United States of America.In the end,that's what this election is about.Do we participate in a politics of cynicism or a politics of hope?I'm not talking about blind optimism here-the almost willful ignorance that thinks unemployment will go away if we just don't talk about it, or the health care crisis will solve itself if we just ignore it.No,I'm talking about something more substantial.It's the hope of slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs;the hope of immigrants setting out for distant shores;the hope of a young naval lieutenant bravely patrolling the Mekong Delta;the hope of a millworker's son who dares to defy the odds;the hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that America has a place for him,too.The audacity of hope!In the end,that is God's greatest gift to us,the bedrock of this nation;the belief in things not seen;the belief that there are better days ahead.I believe we can give our middle class relief and provide working families with a road to opportunity.I believe we can provide jobs to the jobless,homes to the homeless,and reclaim young people in cities across America from violence and despair.I believe that as we stand on the crossroads of history,we can make the right choices,and meet the challenges that face us.Thank you very much everybody and God bless you.基调演讲摘自《巴拉克·奥巴马》。

Barack Obama Presidential Victory Speech(1)巴拉克•奥巴马(Barack Obama)总统的胜利演讲(1)Hello,Chicago!你好,芝加哥!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.如果有任何人在那里仍然怀疑美国是一个一切皆有可能的地方,谁还想知道我们奠基者的梦想在我们这个时代的鲜活,仍在质疑我们民主的力量,今晚就是你的答案。

It’s the answer told by lines that stretch ed around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen, by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different, that their voices could be that difference.它的答案告诉在学校和教堂周围,排着长长的数字这个国家从来没有见过,又等了三个小时,四个小时的人们,许多第一次在他们的生活,因为他们认为,这次一定是不同的,他们的声音可能是不同。

It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled. Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individual s or a collection of red states and blue states. We are, and always will be, the United States of America.答案所说的年轻人和老年人,富人和穷人、民主党和共和党的,黑人,白人,西班牙裔、亚裔、美国原住民、同性恋,异性恋,残疾的和不残疾的。

美国人向世界发送一条消息,我们从未只是个体的集合或红州和蓝州的集合。

我们将永远是,美利坚合众国。

It’s the answer that led those who’ve been told for so long by so many to be cynical and fearful and doubtful about what we can achieve toput their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.答案,让那些长久以来被告知被如此多的愤世嫉俗,恐惧和怀疑我们能够实现把他们手中的弧的历史和弯曲再次向希望一个美好的一天。

It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this date in this election at this defining moment change has come to America.很长时间,但今晚,由于我们今天在这选举在这个决定性的时刻变化已经来到美国。

A little bit earlier this evening, I received an extraordinarily gracious call from Sen. McCain.今晚早些时候,我接到了麦凯恩参议员打来的风度非凡的电话。

Sen. McCain fought long and hard in this campaign. And he’s fought even longer and harder for the country that he loves. He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot begin to imagine. We are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader.麦凯恩在这场竞选中进行了长期艰苦的斗争。

与他更持久、更对他爱的国家。

他已经为美国奉献了太多,我们大多数人无法想象。

我们更好服务于我们的祖国,以补偿这位勇敢而无私的领导人。

I congratulate him; I congratulate Gov. Palin for all that they’ve achieved. And I look forward to working with them to renew this nation’s promise in the months ahead.我祝贺他,我祝贺佩林为所有他们实现。

,我期待着与他们继续这个国家在未来几个月的承诺。

I want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaigned from his heart, and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of Scranton and rode with on the train home to Delaware, the vice president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.我要感谢我的合作伙伴在这个旅程,一个人从他竞选的心,并为男人和女人说话他与斯克兰顿街头长大和骑回特拉华的火车上,美国的副总统,乔·拜登。

And I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16 years the rock of our family, the love of my life, the nation’s next first lady Michelle Obama.今晚我不会站在这里的坚定支持,没有我最好的朋友在过去的16年的岩石的家庭,爱我的生活,国家的下一位第一夫人米歇尔•奥巴马。

Sasha and Malia I love you both more than you can imagine. And you have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the new White House.我的女儿,萨沙和玛丽亚。

我爱你超过你所能想像的。

你获得新的小狗和我们未来的白宫。

And while she’s no longer with us, I know my grandmother’s watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight. I know that my debt to them is beyond measure.虽然她不再和我们在一起,我知道我祖母的看,随着家庭让我我是谁。

今晚我想念他们。

我知道我欠他们的措施。

To my sister Maya, my sister Alma, all my other brothers and sisters, thank you so much for all the support that you’ve give n me. I am grateful to them.我的妹妹玛雅,我的妹妹阿尔玛,以及我所有其他的兄弟姐妹们,感谢你,你给我的所有支持。

我非常感谢他们。
