希拉里退职演说2008年6月7日，美国民主党总统竞选人希拉里在华盛顿正式宣布停止竞选，转而支持竞争对手奥巴马。
希拉里的退选演说内容可圈可点，赢得阵阵掌声，虽然选举失败，但离开得仍然如同一个胜者。
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, so much. Thank you, all. Thank you very, very much.Well -- Well, this isn't exactly the party I'd planned, but I sure like the company.And I want to start today by saying how grateful I am to all of you, to everyone who poured your hearts and your hopes into this campaign, who drove for miles and lined the streets waving homemade signs, who scrimped and saved to raise money, who knocked on doors and made calls, who talked, sometimes argued with your friends and neighbors, who e-mailed and contributed online, who invested so much in our common enterprise, to the moms and dads who came to our events, who lifted their little girls and little boys on their shoulders and whispered in their ears, "See, you can be anything you want to be."To the young people like 13-year-old Anne Riddell [ph] from Mayfield, Ohio, who had been saving for two years to go to Disney World and decided to use her savings instead to travel to Pennsylvania with her mom and volunteer there, as well.To the veterans, to the childhood friends, to New Y orkers and Arkansans who traveled across the country, telling anyone who would listen why you supported me. And to all of those women in their 80s and their 90s born before women could vote, who cast their votes for our campaign. I've told you before about Florence Stein [ph] of South Dakota who was 88 years old and insisted that her daughter bring an absentee ballot to her hospice bedside. Her daughter and a friend put an American flag behind her bed and helped her fill out the ballot.She passed away soon after and, under state law, her ballot didn't count, but her daughter later told a reporter, "My dad's an ornery, old cowboy, and he didn't like it when he heard Mom's vote wouldn't be counted. I don't think he had voted in 20 years, but he voted in place of my mom."So to all those who voted for me and to whom I pledged my utmost, my commitment toyou and to the progress we seek is unyielding. Y ou have inspired and touched me with the stories of the joys and sorrows that make up the fabric of our lives. And you have humbled me with your commitment to our country. Eighteen million of you, from all walks of life -- women and men, young and old, Latino and Asian, African- American and Caucasian, rich, poor, and middle-class, gay and straight, you have stood with me. And I will continue to stand strong with you every time, every place, in every way that I can. The dreams we share are worth fighting for.Remember, we fought for the single mom with the young daughter, juggling work and school, who told me, "I'm doing it all to better myself for her." We fought for the woman who grabbed my hand and asked me, "What are you going to do to make sure I have health care?" and began to cry, because even though she works three jobs, she can't afford insurance. We fought for the young man in the Marine Corps t-shirt who waited months for medical care and said, "Take care of my buddies over there, and then will you please take care of me?" We fought for all those who've lost jobs and health care, who can't afford gas or groceries or college, who have felt invisible to their President these last seven years.I entered this race because I have an old-fashioned conviction that public service is about helping people solve their problems and live their dreams. I've had every opportunity and blessing in my own life, and I want the same for all Americans. And until that day comes, you'll always find me on the front lines of democracy, fighting for the future.The way to continue our fight now, to accomplish the goals for which we stand is to take our energy, our passion, our strength, and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama, the next President of the United States. Today, as I suspend my campaign, I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run. I endorse him and throw my full support behind him. And I ask all of you to jo in me in working as hard for Barack Obama as you have for me.I have served in the Senate with him for four years. I have been in this campaign with him for 16 months. I have stood on the stage and gone toe-to-toe with him in 22 debates. I've had a front-row seat to his candidacy, and I have seen his strength and determination, his grace and his grit. In his own life, Barack Obama has lived the American dream, as a community organizer, in the State Senate, as a United States senator. He has dedicated himself to ensuring the dream is realized. And in this campaign, he has inspired so many to become involved in the democratic process and invested in our common future.Now, when I started this race, I intended to win back the White House and make sure we have a President who puts our country back on the path to peace, prosperity and progress. And that's exactly what we're going to do, by ensuring that Barack Obama walks through the doors of the Oval Office on January 20, 2009.Now, I understand -- I understand that we all know this has been a tough fight, but the Democratic Party is a family. And now it's time to restore the ties that bind us together and to come together around the ideals we share, the values we cherish, and the country we love. We may have started on separate journeys, but today our paths have merged. And we're all heading toward the same destination, united and more ready than ever to win in November and to turn our country around, because so much is at stake.We all want an economy that sustains the American dream, the opportunity to work hard and have that work rewarded, to save for college, a home and retirement, to afford that gas and those groceries, and still have a little left over at the end of the month, an economy that lifts all of our people and ensures that our prosperity is broadly distributed and shared.We all want a health care system that is universal, high-quality and affordable, so that parents don't have to choose between care for themselves or their children or be stuck in dead-end jobs simply to keep their insurance. This isn't just an issue for me. It is a passion and a cause, and it is a fight I will continue until every single American is insured, no exceptions andno excuses.We all want an America defined by deep and meaningful equality, from civil rights to labor rights, from women's rights to gay rights from ending discrimination to promoting unionization, to providing help for the most important job there is: caring for our families.And we all want to restore America's standing in the world, to end the war in Iraq, and once again lead by the power of our values and to join with our allies to confront our shared challenges, from poverty and genocide to terrorism and global warming.Y ou know, I've been involved in politics and public life in one way or another for four decades. And during those -- during those 40 years, our country has voted 10 times for President. Democrats won only three of those times, and the man who won two of those elections is with us today. We made tremendous progress during the '90s under a Democratic President, with a flourishing economy and our leadership for peace and security respected around the world.Just think how much more progress we could have made over the past 40 years if we'd had a Democratic President. Think about the lost opportunities of these past seven years on the environment and the economy, on health care and civil rights, on education, foreign policy and the Supreme Court. Imagine how far we could have come, how much we could have achieved if we had just had a Democrat in the White House. We cannot let this moment slip away. We have come too far and accomplished too much.Now, the journey ahead will not be easy. Some will say we can't do it, that it's too hard, we're just not up to the task. But for as long as America has existed, it has been the American way to reject can't-do claims and to choose instead to stretch the boundaries of the possible through hard work, determination, and a pioneering spirit. It is this belief, this optimism that Senator Obama and I share and that has inspired so many millions of our supporters to make their voices heard. So today I am standing with Senator Obama to say: Y es, we can!。

We’ll have to work hard to get universal health care. But on the day we live in an America where no child, no man, and no woman is without health insurance, we will live in a stronger America. That’s why we need to help elect Barack Obama our President.We’ll have to work hard to get back to fiscal responsibility and a strong middle class. But on the day we live in an America whose middle class is thriving and growing again, where all Americans, no matter where they live or where their ancestors came from, can earn a decent living, we will live in a stronger America and that is why we must elect Barack Obama our President.We’ll have to work hard to foster the innovation that makes us energy independent and lift the threat of global warming from our children’s future. But on the day we live in an America fueled by renewable energy, we will live in a stronger America. That’s why we have to help elect Barack Obama our President.We’ll have to work hard to bring our troops home from Iraq, and get them the support they’ve earned by their service. But on the day we live in an America that’s as loyal to our troops as they have been to us, we will live in a stronger America and that is why we must help elect Barack Obama our President.This election is a turning point election and it is critical that we all understand what our choice really is. Will we go forward together or will we stall and slip backwards. Think how much progress we have already made. When we first started, people everywhere asked the same questions:Could a woman really serve as Commander-in-Chief? Well, I think we answered that one.And could an African American really be our President? Senator Obama has answered that one.Together Senator Obama and I achieved milestones essential to our progress as a nation, part of our perpetual duty to form a more perfect union.Now, on a personal note – when I was asked what it means to be a woman running for President, I always gave the same answer: that I was proud to be running as a woman but I was running because I thought I’d be the best President. But I am a woman, and like millions of women, I know there are still barriers and biases out there, often unconscious.I want to build an America that respects and embraces the potential of every last one of us.I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worries about my daughter’s future and a mother who wants to lead all children to brighter tomorrows. To build that future I see, we must make sure that women and men alike understand the struggles of their grandmothers and mothers, and that women enjoy equal opportunities, equal pay, and equal respect. Let us resolve and work toward achieving some very simple propositions: There are no acceptable limits and there are no acceptable prejudices in the twenty-first century.You can be so proud that, from now on, it will be unremarkable for a woman to win primary state victories, unremarkable to have a woman in a close race to be our nominee, unremarkable to think that a woman can be the President of the United States. And that is truly remarkable.To those who are disappointed that we couldn’t go all the way – especially the young people who put so much into this campaign – it would break my heart if, in falling short of my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours. Always aim high, work hard, and care deeplyabout what you believe in. When you stumble, keep faith. When you’re knocked down, get right back up. And never listen to anyone who says you can’t or shouldn’t go on.As we gather here today in this historic magnificent building, the 50th woman to leave this Earth is orbiting overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House.Although we weren’t able to shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time, thanks to you, it’s got about 18 million cracks in it. And the light is shining th rough like never before, filling us all with the hope and the sure knowledge that the path will be a little easier next time. That has always been the history of progress in America.Think of the suffragists who gathered at Seneca Falls in 1848 and those who kept fighting until women could cast their votes. Think of the abolitionists who struggled and died to see the end of slavery. Think of the civil rights heroes and foot-soldiers who marched, protested and risked their lives to bring about the end to segregation and Jim Crow.Because of them, I grew up taking for granted that women could vote. Because of them, my daughter grew up taking for granted that children of all colors could go to school together. Because of them, Barack Obama and I could wage a hard fought campaign for the Democratic nomination. Because of them, and because of you, children today will grow up taking for granted that an African American or a woman can yes, become President of the United States.When that day arrives and a woman takes the oath of office as our President, we will all stand taller, proud of the values of our nation, proud that every little girl can dream and that her dreams can come true in America. And all of you will know that because of your passion and hard work you helped pave the way for that day.So I want to say to my supporters, when you hear people saying – or think to yourself –“if only” or “what if,” I say, “please don’t go there.” Every moment wasted looking back keep s us from moving forward.Life is too short, time is too precious, and the stakes are too high to dwell on what might have been. We have to work together for what still can be. And that is why I will work my heart out to make sure that Senator Obama is our next President and I hope and pray that all of you will join me in that effort.To my supporters and colleagues in Congress, to the governors and mayors, elected officials who stood with me, in good times and in bad, thank you for your strength and leadership. To my friends in our labor unions who stood strong every step of the way – I thank you and pledge my support to you. To my friends, from every stage of my life – your love and ongoing commitments sustain me every single day. To my family – especially Bill and Chelsea and my mother, you mean the world to me and I thank you for all you have done. And to my extraordinary staff, volunteers and supporters, thank you for working those long, hard hours. Thank you for dropping everything– leaving work or school –traveling to places you’d never been, sometimes for months on end. And thanks to your families as well because your sacrifice was theirs too.All of you were there for me every step of the way. Being human, we are imperfect. That’s why we need each other. To catch each other when we falter. To encourage each other when we lose heart. Some may lead; others may follow; but none of us can go it alone. The changes we’re working for are changes that we can only accomplish together. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are rights that belong to each of us as individuals. But our lives, our freedom, our happiness, are best enjoyed, best protected, and best advanced when we do work together.That is what we will do now as we join forces with Senator Obama and his campaign. We will make history together as we write the next chapter in America’s story. We will stand united for the values we hold dear, for the vision of progress we share, and for the country we love. There is nothing more American than that.And looking out at you today, I have never felt so blessed. The challenges that I have faced in this campaign are nothing compared to those that millions of Americans face every day in their own lives. So today, I’m going to count my blessings and keep on going. I’m going to keep doing what I was doing long before the cameras ever showed up and what I’ll be doing long after they’re gone: Working to give every American the same opportunities I had, and working to ensure that every child has the chance to grow up and achieve his or her God-given potential.I will do it with a heart filled with gratitude, with a deep and abiding love for our country– and with nothing but optimism and confidence for the days ahead. This is now our time to do all that we can to make sure that in this election we add another Democratic president to that very small list of the last 40 years and that we take back our country and once again move with progress and commitment to the future.Thank you all and God bless you and God bless America.。

(APPLAUSE) ... who e-mailed and contributed online, who invested so much in our common enterprise, to the moms and dads who came to our events, who lifted their little girls and little boys on their shoulders and whispered in their ears, "See, you can be anything you want to be." (APPLAUSE) To the young people...

2008美国希拉里退选演讲中文
2008美国希拉里退选演讲中文非常，非常感谢大家。
这虽然不是我计划中想要举行的聚会，但我仍然很高兴大家能来。
首先我想告诉大家，我对你们每一个人有多感激：你们将全部的精力和希望都投入到选举活动中；你们不顾辛劳驱车数英里，为的只是在街旁挥舞自制的标语；你们省吃俭用筹集选举经费；你们与朋友或邻居谈论甚至争执（谁更合适）；你们发电子邮件，或是通过其它方式在网上支持我；你们在我们共同的事业中投入太多。
尤其对那些来参加我们活动的父母们表示感谢，你们把孩子们放在肩膀上，告诉他们，“看，你可以做你想做的任何事。
”我加入这场竞赛是因为我对公众服务保持着单纯的信仰，那就是帮助人们解决问题并实现梦想。
我在个人的生命历程中把握机会，享受祝福，而我希望每一个美国人都能拥有这些。
当那一天到来的时候，你们依然会发现我在民主的最前线，为未来而奋斗。
重申政见&支持奥巴马继续我们的奋斗，完成我们依然坚持的梦想的方式，就是投入我们的精力、我们的激情、我们的力量、我们所拥有的一切去支持未来的美国总统――奥巴马――竞选。
今天，在我退出竞选的时候，我祝贺他取得的每一个胜利和这场非同寻常的竞赛。
我将尽我的全力支持他。
当决意参与这场竞争时，我就希望（）赢回白宫，让我们有一位能带领美国重新回到通往和平、富裕和进步轨道上的总统。
当然，这就是我们正在做的，我们要保证在2009年1月20日，巴拉克・奥巴马走进总统办公室。
现在，我了解――我相当了解这是一场怎样激烈的竞争，但是从来就是一个大家庭。
因此现在正是我们修复关系，为共同的愿景，为珍视的价值观，为我们爱的国家走到一起的时候。
你们都知道，我在过去40年中以各种方式或多或少参与到政治及公众生活中。
在这40年中，我们选举过10次总统。
人只赢得了其中的三次，而两次赢得选举的那个男人今天就和我们在一起。
在一个籍总统的带领下，我们在90年代实现了巨大的进步，拥有大幅增长的经济和在世界备受尊敬的维护和平与安全的领导力。
希拉里退选-中文演讲.
开始觉得奥巴马的获胜演讲很精彩, 继而觉得麦凯恩的败选演讲也很好, 而且相比之下, 奥巴马稍显做作,麦凯恩更淳朴真诚。
但最好的是希拉里的退选演讲,她具备了奥巴马的激情和华丽,还有麦凯恩的坦荡和勇气,除此之外还包含了前面 2位所欠缺的,她还有深深的爱和同情。
现在觉得我以前的博客中对奥巴马、麦凯恩演讲的评价不全面,如果只有一篇演讲可以入选教科书的话,应该是希拉里的这一篇。

还要感谢那些为我们的选举投票的八、九十岁的妇女…她们出生时妇女还没有投票权。
我以前讲过关于南 Dakota 的 88岁的 Florence Stein的故事, 她坚持让她的女儿将 1张缺席选票拿到她的临终关怀病床旁。
她女儿和朋友将一面美国国旗挂在她的床后并帮助她填写了选票。
做完这些她就去世了,根据联邦法律,她的选票无效,但随后她的女儿对记者说:“我父亲是个粗暴的老牛仔,他听说我母亲的选票无效后很不高兴。

希拉里·克林顿的退选演说作者：来源：《青年时代》2008年第08期翻译/赵菲菲非常非常感谢。
这恐怕不是我事先准备的庆祝会，但有大家陪伴，我确实很开心。
今天我首先要说，我是多么感谢你们大家，感谢向这次竞选倾注激情和希望的每一个人……你们经历的悲喜织成生活的经纬，启发我，感动我。
你们对祖国的奉献让我感觉自己的卑微。
1800万人，来自各行各业，男人，女人，青年，老年，拉美裔，亚裔，非洲裔，白人，富人，穷人，中产阶级，同性恋，异性恋，你们和我站在一起。
我将继续坚定地和你们站在一起，随时随地，倾尽全力。
我们共同的梦想值得为之战斗。
我参加这次竞选，因为我有一种老派的信念：但任公职就是要帮助人们解决问题，实现梦想。
我自己一生中获得种种机会和恩赐，我希望所有美国人也都如此。
在那天到来之前，你们会看到我一直站在民主的前沿，为将来而战。
现在，要继续战斗，要实现我们倡导的目标，就要拿出我们的能量、激情和活力，尽一切可能帮助贝拉克·奥巴马当选下届美国总统。
今天，在我中止竞选的时刻，我祝贺他取得的胜利和他在竞选中的出色表现。
我支持他，全心全意拥护他。
我和他在参院共事4年，在这场竞选中对垒16个月，同场辩论22次。
我在近距离目睹他的竞选过程。
我看到他的力量与决心，善意和勇气。
身为社区组织者、州参议员和联邦参议员，贝拉克·奥巴马自己的生活就是美国梦的写照。
为确保这个梦想的实现，他全力付出。
在这次竞选中，他鼓舞那么多人参与民主进程，致力于我们共同的未来。
起初我们可能踏上不同旅程，但今天我们的道路合二为一。
我们都去往同一个目的地，团结一致，作好空前准备，要在11月扭转美国的方向，因为这次竞选关系重大。
那么，前面的路不会好走。
有些人会说，我们做不到，太难了，我们根本不胜任。
但是自打诞生起，美国的方式就是拒绝“行不通”之说，代以勤劳果敢、勇于开拓的精神，争取更多的“可能”。
现在，说说我个人的亲身感受。
当有人问我作为女性竞选总统意味着什么，我总是给出同样的答案：作为女性竞选总统我感到骄傲，但我参加竞选是因为我以前自己可能成为最好的总统。
希拉里退出竞选演讲稿
The way to continue our fight now--to accomplish the goals for which we stand--is to take our energy, our passion, our strength and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama the next president of the United States.
1)Thank you so much. Thank you all.
2)Well, this isn't exactly the party I'd planned, but I sure like the company.
3)I want to start today by saying how grateful I am to all of you--to everyone who poured your hearts and your hopes into this campaign, who drove for miles and lined the streets waving homemade signs, who scrimped and saved to raise money, who knocked on doors and made calls, who talked and sometimes argued with your friends and neighbors, who e-mailed and contributed online, who invested so much in our common enterprise. To the moms and dads who came to our events, who lifted their little girls and little boys on their shoulders and whispered in their ears, "See, you can be anything you want to be."

Thank you very, very much. Well, this isn't exactly the party I'd planned, but I sure like the pany.(APPLAUSE) And I want to start today by saying how grateful I am to all of you, to everyone who poured your hearts and your hopes into this campaign, who drove for miles and lined the streets waving homemade signs, who scrimped and saved to raise money, who knocked on doors and made calls, who talked, sometimes argued with your friends and neighbors...(APPLAUSE)... who ed and contributed online, who invested so much in our mon enterprise, to the moms and dads who came to our events, who lifted their little girls and little boys on their shoulders and whispered in their ears, "See, you can be anything you want to be."(APPLAUSE)To the young people...(APPLAUSE)... like 13-year-old Anne Riddell (ph) from Mayfield, Ohio, who had been saving for two years to go to Disney World and decided to use her savings instead to travel to Pennsylvania with her mom and volunteer there, as well.To the veterans, to the childhood friends, to New Yorkers and Arkansans...(APPLAUSE)... who traveled across the country, telling anyone who would listen why you supported me. And to all of those women in their 80s and their 90s...(APPLAUSE)... born before women could vote, who cast their votes for our campaign. I've told you before about Florence Stein (ph) of South Dakota who was 88 years old and insisted that her daughter bring an absentee ballot to her hospice bedside. Her daughter and a friend put an American flag behind her bed and helped her fill out the ballot.She passed away soon after and, under state law, her ballot didn't count, but her daughter later told a reporter, "My dad's an ornery, old cowboy, and he didn't like it when he heard Mom's vote wouldn't be counted. I don't think he had voted in 20 years, but he voted in place of my mom."(APPLAUSE)So to all those who voted for me and to whom I pledged my utmost, my mitment to you and to the progress we seek is unyielding.You have inspired and touched me with the stories of the joys and sorrows that make up the fabric of our lives. And you have humbled me with your mitment to our country. Eighteen million of you, from all walks of life...(APPLAUSE)... women and men, young and old, Latino and Asian, African- American and Caucasian...(APPLAUSE)... rich, poor, and middle-class, gay and straight, you have stood with me.(APPLAUSE)And I will continue to stand strong with you every time, every place, in every way that I can. The dreams we share are worth fighting for.Remember, we fought for the single mom with the young daughter, juggling work and school, who told me, "I'm doing it all to better myself for her."We fought for the woman who grabbed my hand and asked me, "What are you going to do to make sure I have health care?" and began to cry, because even though she works three jobs, she can't afford insurance.We fought for the young man in the Marine Corps t-shirt who waited months for medical care and said, "Take care of my buddies over there, and then will you please take care of me?"(APPLAUSE)We fought for all those who've lost jobs and health care, who can't afford gas or groceries or college, who have felt invisible to their president these last seven years.I entered this race because I have an old-fashioned conviction that public service is about helping people solve their problems and live their dreams. I've had every opportunity and blessing in my own life, and I want the same for all Americans.And until that day es, you'll always find me on the front lines of democracy, fighting for the future.(APPLAUSE)The way to continue our fight now, to acplish the goals for which we stand is to take our energy, our passion, our strength, and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama, the next president of the United States.(APPLAUSE)Today, as I suspend my campaign, I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run. I endorse him and throw my full support behind him.(APPLAUSE)And I ask all of you to join me in working as hard for Barack Obama as you have for me.(APPLAUSE)I have served in the Senate with him for four years. I have been in this campaign with him for 16 months. I have stood on the stage and gone toe-to-toe with him in 22 debates. I've had a front-row seat to his candidacy, and I have seen his strength and determination, his grace and his grit.In his own life, Barack Obama has lived the American dream, as a munity organizer, in the State Senate, as a United States senator. He has dedicated himself to ensuring the dream is realized. And in this campaign, he has inspired so many to bee involved in the democratic process and invested in our mon future.Now, when I started this race, I intended to win back the White House and make sure we have a president who puts our country back on the path to peace, prosperity and progress. And that's exactly what we're going to do, by ensuring that Barack Obama walks through the doors of the Oval Office on January 20, 2009.(APPLAUSE)Now, I understand -- I understand that we all know this has been a tough fight, but the Democratic Party is a family. And now it's time to restore the ties that bind us together and to e together around the ideals we share, the values we cherish, and the country we love.We may have started on separate journeys, but today our paths have merged. And we're all heading toward the same destination, united and more ready than ever to win in November and to turn our country around, because so much is at stake.We all want an economy that sustains the American dream, the opportunity to work hard and have that work rewarded, to save for college, a home and retirement, to afford that gas and those groceries, and still have a little left over at the end of the month, an economy that lifts all of our people and ensures that our prosperity is broadly distributed and shared.We all want a health care system that is universal, high-quality and affordable...(APPLAUSE)... so that parents don't have to choose between care for themselves or their children or be stuck in dead-end jobs simply to keep their insurance.This isn't just an issue for me. It is a passion and a cause, and it is a fight I will continue until every single American is insured, no exceptions and no excuses.(APPLAUSE)We all want an America defined by deep and meaningful equality, from civil rights to labor rights, from women's rights to gay rights...(APPLAUSE)... from ending discrimination to promoting unionization, to providing help for the most important job there is: caring for our families.And we all want to restore America's standing in the world, to end the war in Iraq, and once again lead by the power of our values...(APPLAUSE)... and to join with our allies to confront our shared challenges, from poverty and genocide to terrorism and global warming.You know, I've been involved in politics and public life in one way or another for four decades. And during those...(APPLAUSE)During those 40 years, our country has voted 10 times for president. Democrats wononly three of those times, and the man who won two of those elections is with us today.(APPLAUSE)We made tremendous progress during the '90s under a Democratic president, with a flourishing economy and our leadership for peace and security respected around the world.Just think how much more progress we could have made over the past 40 years if we'd had a Democratic president. Think about the lost opportunities of these past seven years on the environment and the economy, on health care and civil rights, on education, foreign policy and the Supreme Court.Imagine how far...(APPLAUSE)... we could have e, how much we could have achieved if we had just had a Democrat in the White House.(APPLAUSE)We cannot let this moment slip away. We have e too far and acplished too much.Now, the journey ahead will not be easy. Some will say we can't do it, that it's too hard, we're just not up to the task. But for as long as America has existed, it has been the American way to reject can't-do claims and to choose instead to stretch the boundaries of the possible through hard work, determination, and a pioneering spirit.It is this belief, this optimism that Senator Obama and I share and that has inspired so many millions of our supporters to make their voices heard. So today I am standing with Senator Obama to say: Yes, we can!(APPLAUSE)And that together we will work -- we'll have to work hard to achieve universal health care. But on the day we live in an America where no child, no man, and no woman is without health insurance, we will live in a stronger America. That's why we need to help elect Barack Obama our president.(APPLAUSE)We'll have to work hard to get back to fiscal responsibility and a strong middle class. But on the day we live in an America whose middle class is thriving and growing again,where all Americans, no matter where they live or where their ancestors came from, can earn a decent living, we will live in a stronger America. And that is why we must help elect Barack Obama our president.(APPLAUSE)We'll have to work hard to foster the innovation that will make us energy independent and lift the threat of global warming from our children's future. But on the day we live in an America fueled by renewable energy, we will live in a stronger America. And that is why we have to help elect Barack Obama our president.(APPLAUSE)We'll have to work hard to bring our troops home from Iraq and get them the support they've earned by their service. But on the day we live in an America that's as loyal to our troops as they have been to us, we will live in a stronger America. And that is why we must help elect Barack Obama our president.(APPLAUSE)This election is a turning-point election. And it is critical that we all understand what our choice really is. Will we go forward together, or will we stall and slip backwards?Now, think how much progress we've already made. When we first started, people everywhere asked the same questions. Could a woman really serve as mander-in-chief? Well, I think we answered that one.(APPLAUSE)Could an African-American really be our president? And Senator Obama has answered that one. (APPLAUSE)Together, Senator Obama and I achieved milestones essential to our progress as a nation, part of our perpetual duty to form a more perfect union.Now, on a personal note, when I was asked what it means to be a woman running for president, I always gave the same answer, that I was proud to be running as a woman, but I was running because I thought I'd be the best president. But...(APPLAUSE)But I am a woman and, like millions of women, I know there are still barriers and biases out there, often unconscious, and I want to build an America that respectsand embraces the potential of every last one of us.(APPLAUSE)I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worries about my daughter's future and a mother who wants to leave all children brighter tomorrows.To build that future I see, we must make sure that women and men alike understand the struggles of their grandmothers and their mothers, and that women enjoy equal opportunities, equal pay, and equal respect.(APPLAUSE)Let us...(APPLAUSE)Let us resolve and work toward achieving very simple propositions: There are no acceptable limits, and there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21st century in our country.(APPLAUSE)You can be so proud that, from now on, it will be unremarkable for a woman to win primary state victories...(APPLAUSE)... unremarkable to have a woman in a close race to be our nominee, unremarkable to think that a woman can be the president of the United States. And that is truly remarkable, my friends.(APPLAUSE)To those who are disappointed that we couldn't go all of the way, especially the young people who put so much into this campaign, it would break my heart if, in falling short of my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours.Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. And, when you stumble, keep faith. And, when you're knocked down, get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on.(APPLAUSE)As we gather here today in this historic, magnificent building, the 50th woman to leave this Earth is orbiting overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House.(APPLAUSE)Although we weren't able to shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time, thanks to you, it's got about 18 million cracks in it...(APPLAUSE)... and the light is shining through like never before, filling us all with the hope and the sure knowledge that the path will be a little easier next time.That has always been the history of progress in America. Think of the suffragists who gathered at Seneca Falls in 1848 and those who kept fighting until women could cast their votes.Think of the abolitionists who struggled and died to see the end of slavery. Think of the civil rights heroes and foot soldiers who marched, protested, and risked their lives to bring about the end of segregation and Jim Crow.(APPLAUSE)Because of them, I grew up taking for granted that women could vote and, because of them, my daughter grew up taking for granted that children of all colors could go to school together.Because of them, Barack Obama and I could wage a hard-fought campaign for the Democratic nomination. Because of them and because of you, children today will grow up taking for granted that an African-American or a woman can, yes, bee the president of the United States. And so...(APPLAUSE)... when that day arrives, and a woman takes the oath of office as our president, we will all stand taller, proud of the values of our nation, proud that every little girl can dream big and that her dreams can e true in America.And all of you will know that, because of your passion and hard work, you helped pave the way for that day. So I want to say to my supporters: When you hear people saying or think to yourself, "If only, or, "What if," I say, please, don't go there. Everymoment wasted looking back keeps us from moving forward.(APPLAUSE)Life is too short, time is too precious, and the stakes are too high to dwell on what might have been. We have to work together for what still can be. And that is why I will work my heart out to make sure that Senator Obama is our next president.(APPLAUSE)And I hope and pray that all of you will join me in that effort.(APPLAUSE)To my supporters and colleagues in Congress, to the governors and mayors, elected officials who stood with me in good times and bad, thank you for your strength and leadership.To my friends in our labor unions who stood strong every step of the way, I thank you and pledge my support to you.To my friends from every stage of my life, your love and ongoing mitment sustained me every single day.To my family, especially Bill and Chelsea and my mother, you mean the world to me, and I thank you for all you have done.(APPLAUSE)And to my extraordinary staff, volunteers and supporters...(APPLAUSE)... thank you for working those long, hard hours. Thank you for dropping everything, leaving work or school, traveling to places that you've never been, sometimes for months on end. And thanks to your families, as well, because your sacrifice was theirs, too. All of you were there for me every step of the way.Now, being human, we are imperfect. That's why we need each other, to catch each other when we falter, to encourage each other when we lose heart. Some may lead, some may follow, but none of us can go it alone.The changes we're working for are changes that we can only acplish together. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are rights that belong to us as individuals.But our lives, our freedom, our happiness are best enjoyed, best protected, and best advanced when we do work together.That is what we will do now, as we join forces with Senator Obama and his campaign. We will make history together, as we write the next chapter in America's story. We will stand united for the values we hold dear, for the vision of progress we share, and for the country we love.There is nothing more American than that.And looking out at you today, I have never felt so blessed. The challenges that I have faced in this campaign...(APPLAUSE)... are nothing pared to those that millions of Americans face every day in their own lives.So today I'm going to count my blessings and keep on going. I'm going to keep doing what I was doing long before the cameras ever showed up and what I'll be doing long after they're gone: working to give every American the same opportunities I had and working to ensure that every child has the chance to grow up and achieve his or her God- given potential.I will do it with a heart filled with gratitude, with a deep and abiding love for our country, and with nothing but optimism and confidence for the days ahead.This is now our time to do all that we can to make sure that, in this election, we add another Democratic president to that very small list of the last 40 years and that we take back our country and once again move with progress and mitment to the future.Thank you all. And God bless you, and God bless America.(APPLAUSE)。

希拉里的退选演说
பைடு நூலகம்
伟大的民主精神---希拉里退选演说原稿及翻译
6月7日，美国民主党总统竞选人希拉里在华盛顿正式宣布停止竞选，转而支持竞争对手奥巴马成为总统。希拉里的推选演说内容可圈可点，赢得阵阵掌声，虽然选举失败，但离开得仍然如同一个胜者。这篇演讲稿是难得的翻译素材。
希拉里演讲稿原文 Transcript（抄本，誊本，副本） of Hillary Clinton Endorsement Speech
And I want to start today by saying how grateful I am to all of you, to everyone who poured your hearts and your hopes into this campaign, who drove for miles and lined the streets waving homemade signs, who scrimped （（较平时）节省着过日子，一点一滴地省钱；吝啬；克扣；节省，节缩，过度减少） and saved to raise money, who knocked on doors and made calls, who talked, sometimes argued with your friends and neighbors...
Thank you very, very much. Well, this isn't exactly the party I'd planned, but I sure like the company（客人，朋友；一群人）. (APPLAUSE)
非常非常感谢大家！这的确不是我曾经计划的派对，但我确实喜欢与你们同在。
2008美国希拉里退选演讲中文
2008美国希拉里退选演讲中文2008美国希拉里退选演讲中文我们未能走到最后,对于为此失望的人,特别是为这一竞选如此投入的年轻人,如果因为我没有达成目标,使你们丧失了追求自己目标的勇气,我感到万分难过.永远力争上游,勤奋工作,执着信念.跌下去,要坚持信仰,被击倒,要马上起来,决不要听任何说你不能或不该走下去.我们今天聚集在这座有历史意义的宏伟建筑里,第50位离开地球的女性正在我们的头顶上绕轨道飞行.如果我们能把50个女人送上太空，我们有朝一日也将把一位女性送入白宫。
这一次，我们没能打碎那块最高最硬的玻璃天花板，但因为你们，它有了大约1800万道裂缝。
阳光从来没有像现在这样照进来，让我们充满希望，坚信这条路下次会好走一点儿。
美国的发展进步向来如此。
想想那些1848年聚集在塞尼卡福尔斯的妇女参政主义者和那些坚持战斗直到妇女获得投票权的人。
想想那些为结束奴隶制而战斗牺牲的废奴主义者。
想想为结束种族隔离和种族歧视制度游行、示威、抗议、冒生命危险的民权英雄和无名战士。
因为他们，我从小大到就认为女性当然有投票权，因为他们，我的女儿从小到大都认为各种肤色的孩子当然可以一起去学校。
因为他们，贝拉克.奥巴马和我才能为赢得民主党总统侯选人提名艰苦地战战斗。
因为他们，也因为你们，今天的孩子从小到大也会认为非裔美国人或女性可以当选美国总统。
因此，我想对我的支持者说：“当你们听到有人说或者自己琢磨：真希望如何如何，或者如果怎样就会怎样，我劝你千万不要往那边去回顾过去而浪费的每个时刻都妨碍我们向前。
生命太短暂，时间太宝贵，沉湎于过去代价太高。
我们必须面对现实，共同努力。
正因为如此，我鞠躬尽瘁确保奥巴马参议员成为下届总统。
既然是人，我们就不完美，所以我们需要彼此，在站不稳的时侯相互扶助，在失意的时侯相互鼓励。
有些人可有在前面领路，有些人可能在后面跟随，但没有能单干。
我们要实现的变革只有大家共同努力才能实现。
生命、自由和对幸福的追求是属于每一个人的权利。
2008美国希拉里退选演讲语录
2008美国希拉里退选演讲语录(中英文对照)So I want to say to my supporters: When you hear people saying or think to yourself, "If only, or, "What if," I say, please, don't go there.我要告诉我的支持者：如果你听到别人说，或者你自己曾经这样想，“如果某件事没有发生”，或者“要是出现了另一种情况”……那么我会说，请不要这样设想。
Every moment wasted looking back keeps us from moving forward. Life is too short, time is too precious, and the stakes are too high to dwell on what might have been. We have to work together for what still can be. And that i s why I will work my heart out to make sure that Senator Obama is our next president.为往事叹息，会阻碍我们前进。
生命短暂，时间宝贵，沉湎于空想的代价实在太大。
面对现实，我们必须团结起来。
这就是我全力支持奥巴马参议员当选下一任总统的原因。
When we first started, people everywhere asked the same questions. Coul d a woman really serve as commander-in-chief? Well, I think we answered th at one.当选举刚开始的时候，到处都有人在问：一个女人真的能够领导国家吗？我想，我们已经对这个问题做出了回答。
希拉里的退选演说Hillary Clinton Endorsement Speech
希拉里的退选演说Hillary Clinton Endorsement SpeechThank you very, very much. Well, this isn't exactly the party I'd planned, but I sure like the company. (APPLAUSE)And I want to start today by saying how grateful I am to all of you, to everyone who poured your hearts and your hopes into this campaign, who drove for miles and lined the streets waving homemade signs, who scrimped and saved to raise money, who knocked on doors and made calls, who talked, sometimes argued with your friends and neighbors... (APPLAUSE)... who e-mailed and contributed online, who invested so much in our common enterprise, to the moms and dads who came to our events, who lifted theirlittle girls and little boys on their shoulders and whispered in their ears, "See, you can be anything you want to be."(APPLAUSE)To the young people... (APPLAUSE)... like 13-year-old Anne Riddell (ph) from Mayfield, Ohio, who had been saving for two years to go to Disney World and decided to use her savings instead to travel to Pennsylvania with her mom and volunteer there, as well. To the veterans, to the childhood friends, to New Yorkers and Arkansans...(APPLAUSE)... who traveled across the country, telling anyone who would listen why you supported me. And to all of those women in their 80s and their 90s... (APPLAUSE)... born before women could vote, who cast their votes for our campaign. I've told you before about Florence Stein (ph) of South Dakota who was 88 years old and insisted that her daughter bring an absentee ballot to her hospice bedside. Her daughter and a friend put an American flag behind her bed and helped her fill out the ballot.She passed away soon after and, under state law, her ballot didn't count, but her daughter later told a reporter, "My dad's an ornery, old cowboy, and he didn't like it when he heard Mom's vote wouldn't be counted. I don't think he had voted in 20 years, but he voted in place of my mom." (APPLAUSE)So to all those who voted for me and to whom I pledged my utmost, my commitment to you and to the progress we seek is unyielding.You have inspired and touched me with the stories of the joys and sorrows that make up the fabric of our lives. And you have humbled me with your commitment to our country. Eighteen million of you, from all walks of life... (APPLAUSE)... women and men, young and old, Latino and Asian, African- American and Caucasian...(APPLAUSE)... rich, poor, and middle-class, gay and straight, you have stood with me. (APPLAUSE)And I will continue to stand strong with you every time, every place, in every way that I can. The dreams we share are worth fighting for.Remember, we fought for the single mom with the young daughter, juggling work and school, who told me, "I'm doing it all to better myself for her."We fought for the woman who grabbed my hand and asked me, "What are you going to do to make sure I have health care?" and began to cry, because even though she works three jobs, she can't afford insurance.We fought for the young man in the Marine Corps t-shirt who waited months for medical care and said, "Take care of my buddies over there, and then will you please take care of me?"(APPLAUSE)We fought for all those who've lost jobs and health care, who can't afford gas or groceries or college, who have felt invisible to their president these last seven years.I entered this race because I have an old-fashioned conviction that public service is about helping people solve their problems and live their dreams.I've had every opportunity and blessing in my own life, and I want the same for all Americans.And until that day comes, you'll always find me on the front lines of democracy, fighting for the future. (APPLAUSE)The way to continue our fight now, to accomplish the goals for which we stand is to take our energy, our passion, our strength, and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama, the next president of the United States. (APPLAUSE)Today, as I suspend my campaign, I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run. I endorse him and throw my full support behind him. (APPLAUSE)And I ask all of you to join me in working as hard for Barack Obama asyou have for me.(APPLAUSE)I have served in the Senate with him for four years. I have been in this campaign with him for 16 months. I have stood on the stage and gone toe-to-toe with him in 22 debates. I've had a front-row seat to his candidacy, and I have seen his strength and determination, his grace and his grit.In his own life, Barack Obama has lived the American dream, as a community organizer, in the State Senate, as a United States senator. He has dedicated himself to ensuring the dream is realized. And in this campaign, he has inspired so many to become involved in the democratic process and invested in our common future.Now, when I started this race, I intended to win back the White House and make sure we have a president whoputs our country back on the path to peace, prosperity and progress. And that's exactly what we're going to do, by ensuring that Barack Obama walks through the doors of the Oval Office on January 20, 2009.(APPLAUSE)Now, I understand -- I understand that we all know this has been a tough fight, but the Democratic Party is a family. And now it's time to restore the ties that bind us together and to come together around the ideals we share, the values we cherish, and the country we love. We may have started on separate journeys, but today our paths have merged. And we're all heading toward the same destination, united and more ready than ever to win in November and to turn our country around, because so much is at stake.We all want an economy that sustainsthe American dream, the opportunity to work hard and have that work rewarded, to save for college, a home and retirement, to afford that gas and those groceries, and still have a little left over at the end of the month, an economy that lifts all of our people and ensures that our prosperity is broadly distributed and shared.We all want a health care system that is universal, high-quality and affordable... (APPLAUSE)... so that parents don't have to choose between care for themselves or their children or be stuck in dead-end jobs simply to keep their insurance.This isn't just an issue for me. It is a passion and a cause, and it is a fight I will continue until every single American is insured, no exceptions and no excuses.(APPLAUSE)We all want an America defined by deep and meaningful equality, from civil rights to labor rights, from women's rights to gay rights... (APPLAUSE)... from ending discrimination to promoting unionization, to providing help for the most important job there is: caring for our families.And we all want to restore America's standing in the world, to end the war in Iraq, and once again lead by the power of our values...(APPLAUSE)... and to join with our allies to confront our shared challenges, from poverty and genocide to terrorism and global warming.You know, I've been involved in politics and public life in one way or another for four decades. And during those...During those 40 years, our country has voted 10 times for president. Democrats won only three of those times, and the man who won two of those elections is with us today. (APPLAUSE)We made tremendous progress during the '90s under a Democratic president, with a flourishing economy and our leadership for peace and security respected around the world.Just think how much more progress we could have made over the past 40 years if we'd had a Democratic president. Think about the lost opportunities of these past seven years on the environment and the economy, on health care and civil rights, on education, foreign policy and the Supreme Court.Imagine how far...... we could have come, how much we could have achieved if we had just had a Democrat in the White House. (APPLAUSE)We cannot let this moment slip away. We have come too far and accomplished too much.Now, the journey ahead will not be easy. Some fwill say we can't do it, that it's too hard, we're just not up to the task. But for as long as America has existed, it has been the American way to reject can't-do claims and to choose instead to stretch the boundaries of the possible through hard work, determination, and a pioneering spirit. It is this belief, this optimism that Senator Obama and I share and that has inspired so many millions of our supporters to make their voices heard. So today I am standing with SenatorObama to say: Yes, we can! (APPLAUSE)And that together we will work -- we'll have to work hard to achieve universal health care. But on the day we live in an America where no child, no man, and no woman is without health insurance, we will live in a stronger America. That's why we need to help elect Barack Obama our president. (APPLAUSE)We'll have to work hard to get back to fiscal responsibility and a strong middle class. But on the day we live in an America whose middle class is thriving and growing again, where all Americans, no matter where they live or where their ancestors came from, can earn a decent living, we will live in a stronger America. And that is why we must help elect Barack Obama our president.(APPLAUSE)We'll have to work hard to foster the innovation that will make us energy independent and lift the threat of global warming from our children's future. But on the day we live in an America fueled by renewable energy, we will live in a stronger America. And that is why we have to help elect Barack Obama our president. (APPLAUSE)We'll have to work hard to bring our troops home from Iraq and get them the support they've earned by their service. But on the day we live in an America that's as loyal to our troops as they have been to us, we will live in a stronger America. And that is why we must help elect Barack Obama our president. (APPLAUSE)This election is a turning-point election. And it is critical that we all understandwhat our choice really is. Will we go forward together, or will we stall and slip backwards?Now, think how much progress we've already made. When we first started, people everywhere asked the same questions. Could a woman really serve as commander-in-chief? Well, I think we answered that one. (APPLAUSE)Could an African-American really be our president? And Senator Obama has answered that one. (APPLAUSE) Together, Senator Obama and I achieved milestones essential to our progress as a nation, part of our perpetual duty to form a more perfect union.Now, on a personal note, when I was asked what it means to be a woman running for president, I always gave the same answer, that I was proud to berunning as a woman, but I was running because I thought I'd be the best president. But...(APPLAUSE)But I am a woman and, like millions of women, I know there are still barriers and biases out there, often unconscious, and I want to build an America that respects and embraces the potential of every last one of us. (APPLAUSE)I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worries about my daughter's future and a mother who wants to leave all children brighter tomorrows.To build that future I see, we must make sure that women and men alike understand the struggles of their grandmothers and their mothers, and that women enjoy equal opportunities,equal pay, and equal respect. (APPLAUSE)Let us...(APPLAUSE)Let us resolve and work toward achieving very simple propositions: There are no acceptable limits, and there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21st century in our country. (APPLAUSE)You can be so proud that, from now on, it will be unremarkable for a woman to win primary state victories... (APPLAUSE)... unremarkable to have a woman in a close race to be our nominee, unremarkable to think that a woman can be the president of the United States. And that is truly remarkable, my friends.(APPLAUSE)To those who are disappointed that wecouldn't go all of the way, especially the young people who put so much into this campaign, it would break my heart if, in falling short of my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours.Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. And, when you stumble, keep faith. And, when you're knocked down, get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on. (APPLAUSE)As we gather here today in this historic, magnificent building, the 50th woman to leave this Earth is orbiting overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House.(APPLAUSE)Although we weren't able to shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time,thanks to you, it's got about 18 million cracks in it...(APPLAUSE)... and the light is shining through like never before, filling us all with the hope and the sure knowledge that the path will be a little easier next time. That has always been the history of progress in America. Think of the suffragists who gathered at Seneca Falls in 1848 and those who kept fighting until women could cast their votes.Think of the abolitionists who struggled and died to see the end of slavery. Think of the civil rights heroes and foot soldiers who marched, protested, and risked their lives to bring about the end of segregation and Jim Crow.(APPLAUSE)Because of them, I grew up taking forgranted that women could vote and, because of them, my daughter grew up taking for granted that children of all colors could go to school together. Because of them, Barack Obama and I could wage a hard-fought campaign for the Democratic nomination. Because of them and because of you, children today will grow up taking for granted that an African-American or a woman can, yes, become the president of the United States. And so... (APPLAUSE)... when that day arrives, and a woman takes the oath of office as our president, we will all stand taller, proud of the values of our nation, proud that every little girl can dream big and that her dreams can come true in America.And all of you will know that, because of your passion and hard work, you helped pave the way for that day. So Iwant to say to my supporters: When you hear people saying or think to yourself, "If only, or, "What if," I say, please, don't go there. Every moment wasted looking back keeps us from moving forward.(APPLAUSE)Life is too short, time is too precious, and the stakes are too high to dwell on what might have been. We have to work together for what still can be. And that is why I will work my heart out to make sure that Senator Obama is our next president.(APPLAUSE)And I hope and pray that all of you will join me in that effort. (APPLAUSE)To my supporters and colleagues in Congress, to the governors and mayors, elected officials who stood with me in good times and bad, thank you for yourstrength and leadership.To my friends in our labor unions who stood strong every step of the way, I thank you and pledge my support to you.To my friends from every stage of my life, your love and ongoing commitment sustained me every single day.To my family, especially Bill and Chelsea and my mother, you mean the world to me, and I thank you for all you have done.(APPLAUSE)And to my extraordinary staff, volunteers and supporters... (APPLAUSE)... thank you for working those long, hard hours. Thank you for dropping everything, leaving work or school, traveling to places that you've never been, sometimes for months on end.And thanks to your families, as well, because your sacrifice was theirs, too. All of you were there for me every step of the way.Now, being human, we are imperfect. That's why we need each other, to catch each other when we falter, to encourage each other when we lose heart. Some may lead, some may follow, but none of us can go it alone.The changes we're working for are changes that we can only accomplish together. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are rights that belong to us as individuals. But our lives, our freedom, our happiness are best enjoyed, best protected, and best advanced when we do work together.That is what we will do now, as we join forces with Senator Obama and his campaign. We will make history together, as we write the next chapter inAmerica's story. We will stand united for the values we hold dear, for the vision of progress we share, and for the country we love.There is nothing more American than that.And looking out at you today, I have never felt so blessed. The challenges that I have faced in this campaign... (APPLAUSE)... are nothing compared to those that millions of Americans face every day in their own lives.So today I'm going to count my blessings and keep on going. I'm going to keep doing what I was doing long before the cameras ever showed up and what I'll be doing long after they're gone: working to give every American the same opportunities I had and working to ensure that every child has the chance to grow up and achieve hisor her God-given potential.I will do it with a heart filled with gratitude, with a deep and abiding love for our country, and with nothing but optimism and confidence for the days ahead.This is now our time to do all that we can to make sure that, in this election, we add another Democratic president to that very small list of the last 40 years and that we take back our country and once again move with progress and commitment to the future.Thank you all. And God bless you, and God bless America. (APPLAUSE)非常感谢诸位，谢谢。
希拉里败选演讲稿(中英文)
希拉里：为理想奋斗绝对值得Thank you so very much for being here. I love you all, too. Last night I congratulated Donald Trump and offered to work with him on behalf of our country.I hope that he will be a successful president for all Americans. This is not the outcome we wanted or we worked so hard for, and I'm sorry we did not win this election for the values we share and the vision we hold for our country.But I feel pride and gratitude for this wonderful campaign that we built together. This vast, diverse, creative, unruly, energized campaign. You represent the best of America, and being your candidate has been one of the greatest honors of my life.I know how disappointed you feel, because I feel it too. And so do tens of millions of Americans who invested their hopes and dreams in this effort. This is painful, and it will be for a long time. But I want you to remember this. Our campaign was never about one person, or even oneelection. It was about the country we love and building an America that is hopeful, inclusive, and big-hearted. We have seen that our nation is more deeply divided than we thought. But I still believe in America, and I always will. And if you do, then we must accept this result and then look to the future. Donald Trump is going to be our president. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead. Our constitutional democracy enshrines the peaceful transfer of power.We don't just respect that. We cherish it. It also enshrines the rule of law; the principle we are all equal in rights and dignity; freedom of worship and expression. We respect and cherish these values, too, and we must defend them.Let me add: Our constitutional democracy demands our participation, not just every four years, but all the time. So let's do all we can to keep advancing the causes and values we all hold dear. Making our economy work for everyone, not just those at the top, protecting our country and protecting our planet.And breaking down all the barriers that hold any American back from achieving their dreams. We spent a year and ahalf bringing together millions of people from every corner of our country to say with one voice that we believe that the American dream is big enough for everyone.For people of all races, and religions, for men and women, for immigrants, for LGBT people, and people with disabilities. For everyone.I am so grateful to stand with all of you. I want to thank Tim Kaine and Anne Holton for being our partners on this journey.It has been a joy get to go know them better and gives me great hope and comfort to know that Tim will remain on the front lines of our democracy representing Virginia in the Senate.To Barack and Michelle Obama, our country owes you an enormous debt of gratitude.We thank you for your graceful, determined leadership that has meant so much to so many Americans and people across the world. And to Bill and Chelsea, Mark,Charlotte, Aidan, our brothers and our entire family, my love for you means more than I can ever express.You crisscrossed this country, even 4-month-old Aidan, who traveled with his mom. I will always be grateful to the talented, dedicated men and women at our headquarters in Brooklyn and across our country.You poured your hearts into this campaign. To some of you who are veterans, it was a campaign after you had done other campaigns. Some of you, it was your first campaign. I want each of you to know that you were the best campaign anybody could have ever expected or wanted.And to the millions of volunteers, community leaders, activists and union organizers who knocked on doors, talked to their neighbors, posted on Facebook —even in secret private Facebook sites.I want everybody coming out from behind that and make sure your voices are heard going forward.To anyone that sent contributions, even as small as $5, that kept us going, thank you. To all of us, and to the young people in particular, I hope you will hear this —I have, as Tim said, I have spent my entire life fighting for what I believe in.I've had successes and setbacks and sometimes painful ones. Many of you are at the beginning of your professional, public, and political careers —you will have successes and setbacks too.This loss hurts, but please never stop believing that fighting for what's right is worth it.It is, it is worth it.And so we need —we need you to keep up these fights now and for the rest of your lives. And to all the women, and especially the young women, who put their faith in this campaign and in me: I want you to know that nothing has made me prouder than to be your champion.Now, I know we have still not shattered that highest andhardest glass ceiling, but someday someone will —and hopefully sooner than we might think right now.And to all of the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams.Finally, finally, I am so grateful for our country and for all it has given to me.I count my blessings every single day that I am an American, and I still believe, as deeply as I ever have, that if we stand together and work together with respect for our differences, strengthen our convictions, and love for this nation, our best days are still ahead of us.Because, you know, I believe we are stronger together and we will go forward together. And you should never, ever regret fighting for that. You know, scripture tells us, let us not grow weary of doing good, for in good season we shall reap. My friends, let us have faith in each other, let us not grow weary and lose heart, for there are more seasonsto come and there is more work to do.I am incredibly honored and grateful to have had this chance to represent all of you in this consequential election. May God bless you and may God bless the United States of America.谢谢大家来到这里。
希拉里发布败选演讲：为了正义奋斗是值得的(中文全文)
希拉里发布败选演讲：为了正义奋斗是值得的（中文全文）希拉里：谢谢，谢谢你们！谢谢！（掌声）谢谢，非常感谢你们！谢谢！（掌声）谢谢你们的欢呼和掌声！感谢你们，我的朋友们！谢谢！非常感谢你们与我一同在此！我也爱你们！我已于昨晚祝贺唐纳德·特朗普成功当选总统，并且主动提出与他共事，一同为这个国家服务。
我希望他能成为一名成功的总统，一位服务所有美国人的总统。
我们为这次竞选付出了艰苦卓绝的努力，却没有得到我们想要的结果。
对此，我感到非常抱歉。
我们没有凭借所认可的价值观和为美国设计的愿景而赢得这次选举。
但是，我们共同创造了一次无与伦比的竞选活动，对此我深感骄傲，并心存感激。
这次竞选活动涉及范围广阔、富有变化、别出新意、灵活多变、并且充满活力。
在你们身上能看到美国人最优秀的品质，而能够成为你们的候选人是我这辈子最大的荣耀之一。
（掌声）我知道你们有多沮丧，因为我也切身体会。
想必，寄希望和梦想于这次竞选的千百万美国人也和我们一样伤感。
落选是痛苦的，并且痛苦将持续很长一段时间。
但是，我希望你们记住：我们竞选从来不是为了某一个人或者某一次选举，而是为了这个我们所热爱的国家，是为了建成一个充满希望、充满善意、兼容并包的国家。
我们都有目共睹，我们国家的割裂程度比我们想象的要严重。
但我仍然并将一直对美国抱有信心。
如果你和我一样抱有信心，那么我们就必须接受落选的结果，然后朝前看。
唐纳德·特朗普将成为我们的下一任总统。
我们本该用更开放的心态看待他，他也应该得到一次领导美国的机会。
我们的宪政民主制度要求：权力交接必须和平进行。
我们尊重并且珍视这样的规定。
此外，该制度还规定了法治，规定了人人享有平等权利和尊严的原则，规定了宗教自由和表达自由。
我们也同样尊重并珍视这些价值观，而且我们必须要捍卫它们。
（掌声）不仅如此，宪政制度要求我们参与其中，不仅仅是四年一次的参与，而是要始终如一的参与。
因此，让我们继续共同努力：为我们所珍视的事业和价值观不懈奋斗；让每个人、而不仅仅是上层人士，都能从经济发展中受益；保护我们的国家和地球；并破除一切阻碍我们实现美国梦的障碍。

开始觉得奥巴马的获胜演讲很精彩，继而觉得麦凯恩的败选演讲也很好，而且相比之下，奥巴马稍显做作，麦凯恩更淳朴真诚。
但最好的是希拉里的退选演讲，她具备了奥巴马的激情和华丽，还有麦凯恩的坦荡和勇气，除此之外还包含了前面2位所欠缺的，她还有深深的爱和同情。
现在觉得我以前的博客中对奥巴马、麦凯恩演讲的评价不全面，如果只有一篇演讲可以入选教科书的话，应该是希拉里的这一篇。
希拉里退选演讲全文（咚咚译）(华盛顿国家建筑博物馆)2008年6月7日非常非常感谢你们。
这不是一场计划中的集会，但是我真的喜欢与你们在此相聚。
(掌声)今天我要以感谢开始，我要对你们所有的人说我是多么的感谢，对所有为这次竞选倾注了心血和希望的人，那些驱车很远的距离站在路边挥动自制牌子的人，那些节衣缩食筹集捐款的人，那些前去敲门和打电话（助选）的人，那些与人交谈、有时甚至与朋友和邻居争论的人（掌声），那些通过电子邮件和在线捐助的人，那些为我们共同的事业做出如此大的牺牲的人，那些曾出席我们集会的父母们，他们把自己的儿女放在肩上轻声说“看，你能达到自己的目标。
”（掌声）对那些年轻人(掌声)...就像来自俄亥俄的Mayfield 的13岁的Anne Riddell，她为了去迪斯尼乐园攒了2年的钱，但她决定用这笔钱与她的母亲一道去宾夕法尼亚做志愿者。
感谢那些老年人，那些儿童朋友，感谢纽约和阿肯色的人们（掌声）…他们跨越整个国土，与每一个愿意倾听你们为什么支持我的人交谈。
还要感谢那些为我们的选举投票的八、九十岁的妇女…她们出生时妇女还没有投票权。
我以前讲过关于南Dakota的88岁的Florence Stein的故事，她坚持让她的女儿将1张缺席选票拿到她的临终关怀病床旁。
她女儿和朋友将一面美国国旗挂在她的床后并帮助她填写了选票。
做完这些她就去世了，根据联邦法律，她的选票无效，但随后她的女儿对记者说：“我父亲是个粗暴的老牛仔，他听说我母亲的选票无效后很不高兴。
20年来他从未投过票，但他这次为我妈妈投票了。
（掌声）所以，对所有投票给我的人，还有我对你们许下重大诺言的人们，我对你们的承诺以及对我们所追求的进步的承诺没有改变。
你们的故事激励并打动了我，故事有悲也有喜，组成了我们的生活。
你们对我们国家的奉献使我变得卑微。
一千八百万人来自不同阶层（掌声）…女人和男人，年轻人和老年人，拉丁美洲裔和亚裔，非洲裔和白种人（掌声）…富人，穷人，中产阶级，同性恋和异性恋，你们都与我在一起。
（掌声）今后，无论何时何地我将尽我一切所能继续坚定地与你们在一起。
我们共有的梦想值得我们去为之战斗。
请记住，我们为那名抚养年轻女儿的单亲母亲而战斗，她要同时工作和上学，她告诉我，“为了女儿，我要做这一切提升自己。
”我们为那名抓住我手臂的妇女而战斗。
她问我：“你将如何确保我获得医疗保险？”接着她哭了，因为即使她干3份工作，她仍然买不起保险。
我们为那名身穿海军陆战队T恤的年轻人而战斗，他为医疗保险等待了数月，他说：“好好照顾那边我的伙伴，同时也请你们照顾一下我？”（掌声）我们为所有失去工作和医疗保险的人而战斗；还有那些付不起煤气费、学费和日常生活费的人们；那些在过去的7年中感觉不到总统存在的人们。
我参加竞选是因为我坚持老的信念----公众服务就是帮助人民解决问题和实现他们的梦想。
在我自己的一生中已经得到了所有的机会与祝福，我希望所有的美国人也拥有同样的机会与祝福。
你们将看到我一直站在民主的前列，为未来而战，直到这一天的来临（掌声）。
目前，我们继续战斗完成我们既定目标的方式就是用我们的干劲儿、激情、力量，尽我们的所能帮助选举奥巴马----美利坚合众国下一任总统（掌声）。
今天，在我终止自己竞选活动的同时，我祝贺他赢得的胜利和他走过的不同寻常的竞选之路。
我赞同他参选并付出我的全部支持他（掌声）。
同时我请求你们跟我一道尽自己的努力为奥巴马助选，就像你们当初支持我一样（掌声）。
我曾在参议院与他共事4年。
在这次竞选中我与他在一起16个月。
我在台上从头到尾与他辩论了22场。
对他的候选人资格我有最直观的感受，我见到他的力量与决心，他的优雅风度与勇气。
在他的生活中，作为团体的组织者、在美国参议员作为联邦参议员，奥巴马实现着美国梦。
为这梦想的实现他奉献自己的一切。
在这次竞选中，他鼓舞了如此多的人加入到民主党的进程中并投资于我们的未来。
当我开始竞选时，我希望能重返白宫，希望确保我们有一位使我们国家重返和平、繁荣和进步之路的总统。
这恰恰是我们要做的----确保奥巴马于2009年1月20日步入白宫椭圆形办公室的门（掌声）。
我清楚我们大家都知道这是一场艰苦的战斗，但民主党是一个大家庭。
现在是我们重新系起我们团结的纽带的时候，为我们共同的理想、我们珍爱的价值观和我们热爱的祖国而团结向前。
也许我们开始于各不相同的行程，但今天我们殊途同归。
我们都朝着同一个目标前进，为了在11月获胜并使我们的国家转向成功之路，我们比以往更团结，准备的更充分，因为征途中存在太多的难以预测的事情。
我们都希望经济能够维持美国梦、维持努力工作的机会并保证获得工作报酬、攒下大学学费、房产和养老、付煤气费和买生活用品，同时每个月底还能有一点节余，希望这样的经济能够提升全体国民并确保大家均享我们的繁荣。
我们都希望有一个普遍的、高水平的、能支付得起的医保体系（掌声）。
那样父母们就不必在为自己上医保还是为孩子上医保而进行选择，也不必仅仅为了保证他们的保险而陷于毫无发展的工作。
这问题不仅仅是为了我。
这是一种精神和事业，我将继续战斗下去，直到每一名美国人都毫无例外与借口地得到保障（掌声）。
我们都希望美国显现出更深远意义上的平等，从公民权利到工作权利，从妇女权利到同性恋权利（掌声）…从终止歧视到促进工会组织，还要为最重要的工作提供帮助：那就是关心我们的家人。
我们还希望美国挺立于世界，结束伊拉克战争，再一次靠我们的价值观的力量确立领袖地位（掌声），与我们的盟国一道面对并分担贫穷、恐怖主义的种族灭绝和全球变暖的挑战。
你们知道，我投身政治40年了，经历了这样那样的公众生活。
（掌声）在这40年中，我们国家选出了10任总统。
民主党只赢得其中的3任，今天，那名赢得其中2任的男人（指其丈夫前总统克林顿）就与我们在一起（掌声）。
上世纪90年代，在这名民主党总统的领导下，我们取得巨大的进步，拥有了繁荣的经济和作为和平与安全的领袖赢得的世界的尊重。
只需设想一下，如果在过去的40年里我们都拥有民主党总统，那么我们将取得多大的进步。
想想过去7年中在环境与经济、医保与人权、教育、对外政策以及最高法院等方面失去的机会（掌声）。
设想一下如果是一名民主党人在白宫，我们将前进多远，将取得多大的成就（掌声）。
我们不能让这时刻溜走。
我们已经走了太久、做了太多。
现在，前面的竞选之路并不平坦。
有人会说我们难以成功，因为这太难，我们甚至还没有接近它。
然而，就像美国存在的历史一样长，我们美国人的方式就是拒绝说不能----通过努力工作、决心和先驱者的精神，去寻求并选择替代一切可能的延伸。
这就是奥巴马参议员和我的信仰和信心，这也鼓舞了数百万我们的支持者发出他们的声音。
所以，今天，我与奥巴马参议员站在一起说：“是的，我们能！”（奥巴马竞选口号）（掌声）这是我们将共同进行的工作----我们将努力工作实现全民医保（天哪！我还以为美国早就全民医保了呢）。
到那一天，我们将生活在这样的美国----不会有儿童、男人、女人没有医疗保险，我们将拥有一个更强大的美国。
这就是为什么我们要帮助奥巴马成为我们的总统（掌声）。
我们将努力使国库重新承担起责任，重建一个广大的中产阶层。
到那一天，我们将生活在这样的美国----她的中产阶层重新成长繁荣，所有的美国人，无论他们居住何处、祖先来自哪里，都能有适当的房屋居住，我们将拥有一个更强大的美国。
这就是为什么我们必须要帮助奥巴马成为我们的总统（掌声）。
我们将努力促进创新以使我们的能源自主，使将来我们的孩子远离全球变暖的威胁。
到那一天，我们将生活在这样的美国----燃料为再生能源，我们将拥有一个更强大的美国。
这就是为什么我们一定要帮助奥巴马成为我们的总统（掌声）。
我们将努力使我们的军队从伊拉克回家，并为他们的服务给予他们已经拥有过的支持。
到那一天，我们将生活在这样的美国----像我们的军队曾经忠于我们那样忠于他们，我们将拥有一个更强大的美国。
这就是为什么我们必须帮助奥巴马成为我们的总统（掌声）。
这次大选是一个转折点。
它的关键性在于我们都清楚我们所做出的选择的真正含义是什么。
我们将共同前进，还是熄火滑向倒退？现在，看看我们已经取得的成就。
当我们初次开始时，各地的人们都问同一个问题。
一名妇女真的能当全国军队的总司令？我想我们已对此做出了回答（掌声）。
一名非裔美国人真的能当我们的总统？奥巴马参议员已对此做出了回答（掌声）。
奥巴马参议员和我一起完成了我们整个民族进步的重要意义的里程碑，我们永恒的使命的一部分是建立更全面的联合。
作为个人的说明，当我被问到一名妇女竞选总统的意义时，我总是做出相同的回答，那就是，作为一名妇女参加竞选我感到自豪，但我之所以参选是因为我认为我可以做最好的总统（掌声）。
但我是一名妇女，而且像数百万的妇女一样，我清楚仍然有障碍和偏见，通常是无形中的，我希望把美国打造成为尊重和拥抱我们每一个人的潜能的国家（掌声）。
我作为一名得益于我母亲从未梦想过的机会的女儿而参选。
我作为一名担心我女儿的未来的母亲、作为一名希望所有儿童明天会更好的母亲而参选。
我知道为建设这样的未来，我们必须使所有的妇女和男人同样理解他们祖母和母亲的奋斗，那就是妇女享受机会均等、同工同酬、同样的尊重（掌声）。
让我们（掌声）…让我们决定并向着这一非常简单的目标努力：在21世纪的我们的国家，不再有局限、不再有偏见（掌声）。
从现在起，你们可以为此自豪，一名妇女去当选政府首脑将是普通的事情（掌声），一名妇女作为我们的提名者进入最后的竞选是普通的事情，考虑一名妇女能作为美国总统是一件普通的事情。
朋友们，这才是不同寻常的（掌声）。
对那些为我们未能走完全程而感到失望的人们，特别是那些为这次竞选付出很多的年轻人，在我的目标面临短暂挫折时，如果我未能劝阻你们每一个人不要放弃对自己目标的追求，我将感到很伤心。
永远追求向上，努力奋斗，深切关心你们的信念。
还有，当你绊倒，要继续战斗。
当你被击倒，要寻求正确的支持，永远不要听任何人说你不能或你该停止前进（掌声）。
当今天我们在这历史性的、宏伟的建筑中集会，第50名妇女离开地球进入我们上方的地球轨道。
如果我们能把50名妇女送入太空，有朝一日，我们也将把一名妇女送入白宫（掌声）。
尽管这一次我们没能击碎这最高的、最艰难的无形的阻碍，但感谢你们，这无形的阻碍上已印上了1千8百万的裂缝（掌声），这光明史无前例地一路照耀，希望和真切的理解充满我们心中，那就是，下一次征程将轻松一些。
