奥巴马夫人米歇尔演讲稿中英文When it comes to giving our kids the education they deserve , Barack knows that like me and like so many of you, he never could've attended college without financial aid.And beli eve it or not, when we were first married, our combined mo nthly student loan bills were actually higher than our mortg age.We were so young, so in love, and so in debt.That's wh y Barack has fought so hard to increase student aid and ke ep interest rates down, because he wants every young person to fulfill their promise and be able to attend college wi thout a mountain of debt.So in the end, for Barack, these issues aren't political-they're personal.Because Barack knows what it means when a f amily struggles.He knows what it means to want something mor e for your kids and grandkids.Barack knows the American Drea m because he's lived it...and he wants everyone in this cou ntry to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where we're from, or what we look like, or who we love .And he believes that when you've worked hard, and done wel l, and walked through that doorway of opportunity...you do n ot slam it shut behind you...you reach back,and you give ot her folks the same chances that helped you succeed.So when people ask me whether being in the White Hous e has changed my husband, I can honestly say that when it comes to his character, and his convictions, and his heart , Barack Obama is still the same man I fell in love with all those years ago.He's the same man who started his car eer by turning down high paying jobs and instead working in struggling neighborhoods where a steel plant had shut down, fighting to rebuild those communities and get folks back t o work...because for Barack, success isn't about how much money you make, it's about the difference you make in people' s lives.He's the same man who, when our girls were first b orn, would anxiously check their cribs every few minutes to ensure they were still breathing, proudly showing them off to everyone we knew.That's the man who sits down with me and our girls for dinner nearly every night,patiently answe ring their questions about issues in the news, and strategiz ing about middle school friendships.That's the man I see in those quiet moments late at night, hunched over his desk, poring over the letters people have sent him.The letter fr om the father struggling to pay his bills...from the woman dying of cancer whose insurance company won't cover her care ...from the young person with so much promise but so few o pportunities.I see the concern in his eyes...and I hear the determination in his voice as he tells me, "You won't bel ieve what these folks are going through, Michelle...it's not right. We've got to keep working to fix this. We've got so much more to do."I see how those stories -our collection of struggles and hopes and dreams -I see how that's what drives Barack Obama every single day. And I didn't think it was possible, but today, I love my husband even more than I did four years ago...even more tha n I did 23 years ago, when we first met.Let me tell you why.I love that he's never forgotten how he started.I love that we can trust Barack to do what he says he's going to do, even when it's hard -especially when it's hard.I love that for Barack, there is no such thing as "us" and "them" –he doesn't care whether you're a Democrat, a Republican, o r none of the above...he knows that we all love our country...and he's always ready to listen to good ideas...he's alw ays looking for the very best in everyone he meets.And I love that even in the toughest moments, when we're a ll sweating it -when we're worried that the bill won't pass, and it seems like all is lost –Barack never lets himself get distracted by the chatter and the noise.Just like his grandmother, he just keeps getting up and moving forward...with patience and wisdom, and coura ge and grace.And he reminds me that we are playing a long game here...and that change is hard, and change is slow, and it never happens all at once.But eventually we get ther e, we always do.We get there because of folks like my Dad. ..folks like Barack's grandmother...men and women who said to themselves, "I may not have a chance to fulfill my dreams , but maybe my children will...maybe my grandchildren will."S o many of us stand here tonight because of their sacrifice, and longing, and steadfast love...because time and again, t hey swallowed their fears and doubts and did what was hard.So today, when the challenges we face start to seem ove rwhelming -or even impossible-let us never forget that doing the impossible is the histor y of this nation...it's who we are as Americans...it's how this country was built.And if our parents and grandparents c ould toil and struggle for us...if they could raise beams o f steel to the sky, send a man to the moon, and connect the world with the touch of a button...then surely we can keep on sacrificing and building for our own kids and grand kids.And if so many brave men and women could wear our cou ntry's uniform and sacrifice their lives for our most fundam ental rights...then surely we can do our part as citizens of this great democracy to exercise those rights...surely, we can get to the polls on Election Day and make our voices heard.If farmers and blacksmiths could win independence from an empire...if immigrants could leave behind everything they knew for a better life on our shores...if women could be dragged to jail for seeking the vote...if a generation cou ld defeat a depression, and define greatness for all time... if a young preacher could lift us to the mountaintop with his righteous dream...and if proud Americans can be who they are and boldly stand at the altar with who they love...th en surely, surely we can give everyone in this country a f air chance at that great American Dream.Because in the end, more than anything else, that is the s tory of this country –the story of unwavering hope grounded in unyielding struggle. That is what has made my story, and Barack's story, and so many other American stories possible.And I say all of this tonight not just as First Lady...and not just as a wife.Y ou see, at the end of the day, my most important title is still "mom-in-chief."My daughters are still the heart of my heart and the center of my world.But today, I have none of those worrie s from four years ago about whether Barack and I were doin g what's best for our girls.Because today, I know from expe rience that if I truly want to leave a better world for m y daughters, and all our sons and daughters...if we want to give all our children a foundation for their dreams and o pportunities worthy of their promise...if we want to give th em that sense of limitless possibility –that belief that here in America, there is always something better out there if you're willing to work for it...thenwe must work like never before...and we must once again com e together and stand together for the man we can trust to keep moving this great country forward...my husband, our Pr esident, President Barack Obama.Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America.孩子们应该受到很好的教育,说道这个问题,Barack懂得,就像我们中很多人一样,没有助学金他就也不可能上大学。

她用刚学不久的中文“你好”和“谢谢”作为开场白和结束语,并以讲故事的方式,与成都中学生分享自己的求学经历,强调教育对年轻人的重要性。

Remarks by the First Lady at Number Seven SchoolChengdu, ChinaMarch 25, XXNi hao. It is truly a pleasure to be here at the Number Seven School. Thankyou so much for your warm welcome.Now, before I get started, on behalf of myself and my husband, I want to say that ourhearts go out to all those with loved ones on Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. As I saidthis past weekend when I spoke at Peking University, we are very much keeping all ofthem in our thoughts and our prayers at this tremendously difficult time.So now, let me start by thanking your Principal, Principal Liu, and your classmate, Ju Chao, for that wonderful introduction. Your English, Ju Chao, is excellent, andyou should be very proud. Thank you so much. (Applause.) And I want to thankall of the students here today, both those of you here in person and those of youjoining remotely from across the region. I’m thrilled to be visiting your wonderfulschool.Now, in preparation for this visit, before I left the U.S. I visited the Yu Ying School.It’s a public school near the White House in Washington, D.C., and all of the studentsat this school study Chinese. And I met with the sixth-grade class, kids who are 11and 12 years old. They had recently taken a trip here to China, and they werebursting with excitement. They were eager to tell me about everything about whatthey had seen.But they admitted that before their trip, they had all kinds of misconceptions aboutChina. They thought they would see palaces and temples everywhere they went, butinstead they found massive cities filled with skyscrapers. They weren’t sure thatthey’d like the food here in China, but they actually loved it, and they learned how touse chopsticks. And in the end, one of the students told me –- and this is his quote-- he said, “Coming home was really exciting, but was at the same time sad.”Now, meeting these students reminded me that when we live so far away fromeach other, it’s easy to develop all kinds of misconceptions and stereotypes. It’seasy to focus on our differences –- how we speak different languages and eat different foods and observe different traditions. But as I travel the world, and I meet young people from so many countries, I’m always struck by how much more we have in common. And that’s been particularly true during my visit here in China.You see, the truth is that I grew up like many of you. My mom, my dad, my brother and I, we lived in a tiny apartment in Chicago, which is one of the largest cities in America. My father worked at the local water plant. And we didn’t have much money, but our little home was bursting with love. Every evening, my family would laugh and share stories over dinner. We’d play card games and have fun for hours. And on summer nights, I remember, when our apartment got too hot, we’d all sleep outside on our back porch.Family meant everything to us, including our extended family. My grandparents lived nearby, and my elderly great aunt and uncle lived in the apartment downstairs from us. And when their health started to decline my parents stepped in, helping my uncle shave and dress each morning, dashing downstairs in the middle of the night to check on my aunt.So in my family, like in so many of your families, we took care of each other.And while we certainly weren’t rich, my parents had big dreams for me and my brother. They had only a high school education themselves, but they were determined to send us both to universities.So they poured all of their love and all of their hope into us, and they worked hard. They saved every penny. And I know that wasn’t easy for them, especially for my father. You see, my father had a serious illness called multiple sclerosis. And as he got sicker, it got harder for him to walk, and it took him longer to get dressed in the morning.But no matter how tired he felt, no matter how much pain he was in, my father hardly ever missed a day of work, because he was determined to give me and my brother a better life. And every day, like so many of you, I felt the weight of my parents’ sacrifices on my shoulders. Every day, I wanted to make them proud.So while most American kids attend public schools near their homes, when it was time for me to attend high school, I took an exam and got into a special public high school where I could get a better education. But the school was very far from my home, so I had to get up early every morning and ride a bus for an hour, sometimes an hour and a half if the weather was bad. And every afternoon, I’d ride that same bus back home and then immediately start my homework, often studying late into the night -- and sometimes I would wake up at 4:30 or 5:00 in the morning to study even more.And it wasn’t easy. But whenever I got tired or discouraged, I would just thinkabout how hard my parents were working for me. And I would remember something my mother always told me –- she said: “A good education is something that noone can take away from you.”And when it was time for me to apply to university, I had many options, because in America, there are many kinds of universities. There are four-year universities. There are two-year community colleges which are less expensive. There are universities where you take classes at night while working during the day. So you don’t have to be a top student to attend a university. And even if your parents don’t have much money or you live in a tiny town in a rural area, in America, you can still attend university. And you can get scholarships and government loans to help pay your tuition.So I attended Princeton University for my undergraduate degree, and I went onto Harvard University for my graduate degree in law. And with those degrees I was able to become a lawyer at a large law firm, and then I worked as an executive at a city hospital, and then I was the director of an organization that helped disadvantaged young people.And my story isn’t unusual in America. Some of our most famous athletes, like LeBron James, and artists, like the singer Janelle Monae, came from struggling families like mine, as do many business leaders – like Howard Schultz. He’s thehead of a company called Starbucks, which many of you may have heard of. When Mr. Schultz was a boy his father lost his job, leaving their family destitute. But Mr. Schultz worked hard. He got a scholarship to a university, and eventually built the largest coffeehouse company in the world.And then there’s this other guy I know who was raised by a single mother who sometimes struggled to afford food for their family. But like me, this guy got scholarships and loans to attend universities. He became a lawyer and a professor, and then he was a state senator and then a national senator. And then, he became President of the United States. This guy I’m talking about is my husband, Barack Obama. (Applause.)These stories are the stories of so many Americans, and of America itself. Because in America, we believe that no matter where you live or how much money your parents have, or what race or religion or ethnicity you are, if you work hard and believe in yourself, then you should have a chance to succeed. We also believe that everyone is equal, and that we all have the right to say what we think and worship as we choose, even when others don’t like what we say or don’t always agree with what we believe.Now of course, living up to these ideals isn’t always easy. And there have been times in our history where we have fallen short. Many decades ago, there wereactually laws in America that allowed discrimination against black people like me,who are a minority in the United States. But over time, ordinary citizens decidedthat those laws were unfair. So they held peaceful protests and marches. They called on government officials to change those laws, and they voted to elect new officials who shared their views.And slowly but surely, America changed. We got rid of those unjust laws. And today, just 50 years later, my husband and I are President and First Lady of the United States. And that is really the story of America –- how over the course of our short history, through so many trials and struggles, we have become more equal, more inclusive, and more free.And today in America, people of every race, religion and ethnicity live togetherand work together to build a better life for their children and grandchildren. And in the end, that deep yearning to leave something better for those who come after us, that is something we all truly share. In fact, there’s a Chinese saying that I love that says,“To achieve true happiness, help the next generation.”And like so many of your parents, my parents sacrificed so much so that I could have opportunities they never dreamed of. And today, as a mother myself, I want even more opportunities for my own daughters. But of course, as I always tell my daughters, with opportunities come obligations.And that is true for all of you as well. You all have the opportunity to receive an education from this wonderful school, and you all have an obligation to take thefullest advantage of this opportunity. And I know that’s exactly what you all are doing.You’re winning prizes in math and science. Here, you are staging musical performances around the world. You’re volunteering in your communities. And many of you are working hard to get an education your parents never dreamed of.So you all have so much to offer –- and that’s a good thing, because the world needs your talent. The world needs your creativity and energy more than ever before. Because we face big challenges that know no borders –- like improving the qualityof our air and water, ensuring that people have good jobs, stopping the spread of disease. And soon, it will all fall to all of you to come together with people on every continent and solve these problems together.Now, fortunately, here at this wonderful school, you’re already well on your way.For more than a decade, you’ve been building special relationships with a American school in -- an American high school, and many of you will attend universities in America or find other ways to reach out beyond your borders.So in the years ahead, much like you and I are doing here today, you will becreating bonds of friendship across the globe that will last for decades to come. Andover the past week, as I have seen both the ancient wonders and the modernachievements of your fascinating country, and as I’ve met with extraordinary youngpeople like all of you, I am more confident than ever before in our shared future.And I cannot wait to see everything that you will achieve here in China and aroundthe world.Thank you again for hosting me and my family at this extraordinary school, and Iwish you all the best of luck in your journey ahead.

米歇尔奥巴马北大演讲稿米歇尔·奥巴马北大演讲稿。

尊敬的北大师生,大家好!我非常高兴能够来到这里,与你们分享我的一些想法和经历。

作为美国第一夫人,我有幸有机会见证和参与了许多重要的社会活动和国际事务,也有幸能够在各种场合发表讲话,与世界各地的人们交流。

今天,我想和你们谈谈一些关于教育、女性权益和社会责任的话题。

首先,我想强调的是教育的重要性。

教育是每个人成长的基石,也是社会进步的动力。

我相信,每个人都应该有平等接受教育的权利,不论是男性还是女性,不论是贫穷还是富裕。

教育可以改变命运,可以让人们拥有更多的选择和机会。

因此,我们应该努力营造一个公平、包容的教育环境,让每个人都能够实现自己的梦想。

其次,我想谈谈女性权益。

作为一个女性,我深知女性在社会中所面临的各种困难和挑战。

在很多地方,女性依然面临着教育不公、职业歧视、家庭暴力等问题。

我们需要为女性争取平等的权利和机会,让她们能够在社会各个领域发挥自己的才能和价值。

同时,我们也需要改变社会对女性的刻板印象和偏见,让每个女性都能够自由地选择自己的生活方式和追求幸福。

最后,我想谈谈社会责任。

作为一个公众人物,我深知自己肩负着一定的社会责任。

我认为,每个人都应该为社会做出一些贡献,无论是大是小。

无论是通过自己的行为和言论,还是通过参与公益活动和慈善事业,每个人都可以为社会的进步和发展贡献自己的力量。

只有当每个人都肩负起自己的社会责任,我们才能共同创造一个更加美好的世界。

在结束我的演讲之前,我想再次感谢北大师生对我的热情接待,也希望大家能够牢记我所说的话。

教育、女性权益和社会责任,这些都是我们共同的责任和使命。

让我们携手努力,共同创造一个更加美好、更加公平的世界!谢谢大家!。

2024年奥巴马夫人米歇尔助选演讲稿

2024年奥巴马夫人米歇尔助选演讲稿

尊敬的各位领导、亲爱的同事们:大家好!首先,我要感谢所有出席今天活动的各位,感谢你们对我们的支持和关注。

在此,我要特别感谢我的丈夫奥巴马总统。

他是一个充满智慧、坚毅有力的领导,他一直以来都致力于改变人们的生活。

我们一直以来都坚定地相信,只有通过共同努力和热情投入,我们才能实现我们的梦想和目标。

今天,我想和大家分享一些发生在我们身边的故事。

这些故事,让我明白了有时候,一个人的力量可以改变整个世界。

同时,我也希望通过这些故事,激励大家行动起来,为我们的奋斗目标而努力。

故事一:小南希是一个来自底特律的女孩。

她的父母在她很小的时候就离异了,她和妈妈一起生活。

尽管工作很辛苦,妈妈仍然坚持供她上学。

小南希非常聪明,但是她的学校却一直面临着种种困境。

于是,她决定亲自去争取更好的教育。

她和一群志同道合的同学一起,在学校门口设立了图书角,每天放学后帮助其他孩子们学习。

他们还通过举办义卖活动购买了一些教育资源,帮助更多的孩子们。

这个小机构最终吸引了一些教育专家的注意,他们帮助学校改善了教育环境,为孩子们创造了更好的学习机会。

故事二:约翰是一位来自芝加哥的老师。

他教授社会科学,被学生们称为“最酷的老师”。

他一直以来都致力于鼓励学生们去探索和实践自己的梦想。

他组织了各种社区活动,帮助学生们更好地了解社会和世界。

他还为学生们提供了各种实习和实践机会,帮助他们将知识应用到实际问题中去。

通过约翰的引导,许多学生们获得了奖学金,进入了优秀的大学,实现了自己的梦想。

这些故事看起来可能只是一些平凡的小事,但是它们却展示了我们每个人都可以通过行动来改变世界的力量。

每个人都可以成为一个改变者,一个启发他人的榜样。

无论是在教育、医疗、环保还是任何其他领域,我们都可以发挥自己的特长和能力,为社会和人民做出贡献。

改变并不是一蹴而就的,它需要时间、耐心和坚持。

我们需要敢于追求自己的梦想,同时也要努力帮助他人实现他们的梦想。

我们要与他人携手前行,共同努力,互相支持,才能赋予自己的生活以意义。

米歇尔奥巴马演讲稿

米歇尔奥巴马演讲稿

米歇尔奥巴马演讲稿尊敬的各位领导、各位嘉宾,亲爱的同学们:大家好!今天,我很荣幸能够站在这里,和大家分享我对教育和女性权益的一些看法。

作为前第一夫人,我有幸见证了许多不同背景的女性在教育领域取得的成就,也深知教育对于一个国家和一个社会的重要性。

在这个世界上,有太多的女性因为种种原因而无法接受教育,这不仅是对她们个人的剥夺,也是对整个社会的损失。

因此,我们需要共同努力,为每一个女性提供平等的接受教育的机会。

教育不仅仅是传授知识,更是培养人的品格和思维能力。

在我看来,教育应该是包容的,应该为每一个学生提供一个展示自己的舞台。

无论是男孩还是女孩,无论是富裕家庭的孩子还是贫困家庭的孩子,他们都应该有平等的机会接受优质的教育。

我们应该努力消除性别歧视,让每一个女孩都能够有机会去追求自己的梦想,去证明自己的价值。

在过去的几年里,我有幸见证了许多女性在不同领域取得的成就。

她们不仅在科技、商业、政治等领域表现出色,也在教育领域做出了重要贡献。

她们不仅仅是为了自己的利益,更是为了整个社会的发展和进步。

她们的成功不仅仅是她们个人的胜利,更是对整个社会的鼓舞和激励。

因此,我们应该为她们搭建更多的平台,为她们提供更多的支持和鼓励。

在教育领域,我们需要更多的女性发声,更多的女性参与决策。

因为只有她们才能更好地理解女性的需求和困境,才能更好地为女性争取权益。

我相信,只要我们共同努力,只要我们齐心协力,就一定能够创造一个更加公平和包容的社会,让每一个女性都能够享有平等的权利和机会。

最后,我希望每一个女性都能够相信自己的力量,勇敢地追求自己的梦想。

无论遇到什么样的困难和挑战,都要坚定地向前走,相信自己一定能够战胜一切。

同时,我也希望每一个男性都能够尊重和支持女性,让我们共同努力,创造一个更加美好的未来。

谢谢大家!。

美国第一夫人米歇尔演讲稿《翻译》

美国第一夫人米歇尔演讲稿《翻译》

美国第一夫人米歇尔·奥巴马在英国伦敦伊斯灵顿·伊丽莎白·安德森女校的演讲2009年4月3日这是我的第一次出访。

是我作为第一夫人的第一次访问外国。

你们能相信吗?虽然这不是我第一次来英国,我必须说很高兴我的首次官方访问是来英国。

美国和英国之间的特殊关系,不只是基于政府之间的关系,而且基于我们有共同的语言和价值观。

看见你们大家就使我想到这一点。

在访问期间我特别荣幸地会见了英国一些最出色的女士。

这些女士在为你们所有女孩子铺路。

我也很荣幸见到你们,这些英国和世界未来的领导者。

虽然我们的生活境况好像相差很远,我作为美国第一夫人站在这里,而你们还正在上学。

我想让你们了解我们有很多共同之处。

因为在我生命历程中没有任何东西曾经预示我会站在这里,作为美利坚合众国的第一位非洲裔第一夫人。

我的资历里没有什么东西能使我站在这个位置上。

我不是用财富和资源养大的,也谈不上有什么社会地位。

我是在芝加哥的南边养大的。

那是芝加哥的真实部分。

我出身于工人阶级。

我父亲一辈子是个市政工人。

我母亲是个家庭妇女。

她待在家里照顾我和我哥哥。

我父母都没上过大学。

我爸爸被诊断有多种硬化症,当他壮年的时候。

但就在他变得难以行走,而且早上难以穿衣的时候-- 我看着他挣扎得越来越厉害-- 我父亲却从来没有抱怨过他的困难。

他对于自己拥有的一切心存感激。

他只是起得更早一点,工作得更努力一点。

我哥哥和我在成长过程中得到了人生真正需要的一切:爱,强有力的价值观,以及一个信念,就是靠着良好的教育,还有大量的辛勤工作,没有什么是我们做不到的。

我的例子就表明女孩子能创造奇迹,只要她们从生命最开始的时候,就受到周围人的爱护和教养。

我的生命中围绕着非凡的女性。

祖母,老师,姨妈,表姐妹,邻居,她们教会我沉默的力量和尊严。

还有我母亲,我生命中最重要的榜样,她和我们住在白宫帮着照顾我们的两个小女儿,玛丽娅和萨莎。

她在孩子们和我的生活中都很活跃,并正在给她们灌输,她教给我和我哥哥的价值观:同情心,正直、自信和坚定。

2012年奥巴马夫人米歇尔助选的演讲稿中文版

奥巴马夫人米歇尔的演讲稿孩子们应该受到很好的教育,说道这个问题,barack懂得,就像我们中很多人一样,没有助学金他就也不可能上大学。

你们相信吗?在我和他新婚之时,我们的助学贷款的压力甚至远大于房贷。

当时我们那么年轻,还负债累累。

因此,barack 竭尽全力提高助学金额度,同时压低利息,他希望让每一个年轻人都能大展宏图,不必为了求学债台高筑,。

归根到底,这些对他来说根本无关政治,推己及人而已。

他深深得知道家庭的处境。

他懂得希望子孙过上好日子是这样一种感受。

他知道什么是美国梦,因为他曾亲身经历。

他希望每一个人都能有相同的机会。

无论身份,无论家乡,无论种族,无论信仰和情感。

他相信当每一个人努力奋斗,出人头地,在通过机遇的大门之后,不会自私地关上大门,而会转身伸出援手。

给予人们共同的机会一起成功!如果你要问我白宫这四年是否改变我的丈夫?我可以坦诚相告,不论是看他的品格,信仰,还是内心,此时此刻的他是彼时彼地我相爱的那个人!如今的他还会像那时一样,拒绝高薪工作,而深入社区基层,去帮助濒临倒闭的钢厂的职工和家属。

去重建那样的社区,帮助人们再度就业。

因为对他来讲,成功的标准并不是收入,而是你对他人生的积极影响,他还是那个当女儿刚降生时,会分分钟钟就跑到婴儿床边查看女儿是否还在呼吸的那个父亲。

会抱着女儿去找所有的熟人显摆。

他至今仍每晚和我跟女儿一起吃晚餐。

耐心地回答她们关于新闻和时事的问题,为她们在学校交朋友的事儿出谋划策。

每天深夜我都见到他在办公室沉默着,翻着一封封寄给他的信。

有的信来自艰难谋生维持家用的父亲,有的来自被保险公司弃之不管的病入膏肓的女性,有的信来自徒有大志却怀才不遇的年轻人,我看到他为此忧心不已,他无比坚定地对我说:你无法想象他们过着什么样的日子,米歇尔,这是不对的!我们必须再接再厉去改变这些,我们做的还远远不够!我看到那些故事,那些艰难困苦和那些梦想希望,正是那一切让奥巴马每日为之努力,从前的我绝想不到今天的我反而比四年前更爱我的丈夫了,甚至远胜23年前我们相爱时,我爱他!因为他不忘本!我爱他,因为他会去履行承诺,困难当头他只会越挫越勇,我爱他,因为他对人们一视同仁!从不管你是那个党派,又或是有无党派。

Remarks by the First Lady at Number Seven SchoolChengdu, ChinaMarch 25, 2014Ni hao. It is truly a pleasure to be here at the Number Seven School. Thankyou so much for your warm welcome.Now, before I get started, on behalf of myself and my husband, I want to say that ourhearts go out to all those with loved ones on Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. As I saidthis past weekend when I spoke at Peking University, we are very much keeping all ofthem in our thoughts and our prayers at this tremendously difficult time.So now, let me start by thanking your Principal, Principal Liu, and your classmate,Ju Chao, for that wonderful introduction. Your English, JuChao, is excellent, andyou should be very proud. Thank you so much. (Applause.) And I want to thankall of the students here today, both those of you here in person and those of youjoining remotely from across the region. I’m thrilled to be visiting your wonderfulschool.Now, in preparation for this visit, before I left the U.S. I visited the Yu Ying School.It’s a public school near the White House in Washington, D.C., and all of the studentsat this school study Chinese. And I met with the sixth-grade class, kids who are 11and 12 years old. They had recently taken a trip here to China, and they werebursting with excitement. They were eager to tell me about everything about whatthey had seen.But they admitted that before their trip, they had all kinds of misconceptions aboutChina. They thought they would see palaces and temples everywhere they went, butinstead they found massive cities filled with skyscrapers. They weren’t sure thatthey’d like the food here in China, but they actually loved it, and they learned how touse chopsticks. And in the end, one of the students told me –- and this is his quote-- he said, “Coming home was really exciting, but was at the same time sad.”Now, meeting these students reminded me that when we live so far away fromeach other, it’s easy to develop all kinds of misconceptions and stereotypes. It’seasy to focus on our differences –- how we speak different languages and eatdifferent foods and observe different traditions. But as I travel the world, and I meetyoung people from so many countries, I’m always struck by how much more we havein common. And that’s been particularly true during my visit here in China.You see, the truth is that I grew up like many of you. My mom, my dad, mybrother and I, we lived in a tiny apartment in Chicago, which isone of the largestcities in America. My father worked at the local water plant. And we didn’t havemuch money, but our little home was bursting with love. Every evening, my familywould laugh and share stories over dinner. We’d play card games and have fun forhours. And on summer nights, I remember, when our apartment got too hot, we’dall sleep outside on our back porch.Family meant everything to us, including our extended family. My grandparentslived nearby, and my elderly great aunt and uncle lived in the apartment downstairsfrom us. And when their health started to decline my parents stepped in, helping myuncle shave and dress each morning, dashing downstairs in the middle of the night tocheck on my aunt.So in my family, like in so many of your families, we took care of each other.And while we certainly weren’t rich, my parents had big dreams for me and mybrother. They had only a high school education themselves, but they weredetermined to send us both to universities.米歇尔演讲中英稿。

米歇尔•奥巴马演讲稿英文全文美国第一夫人米歇尔•奥巴马在9月4日民主党全国代表大会上发表演讲,以下是演讲稿的英文全文。

First Lady Michelle Obama:Thank you so much, Elaine…we are so grateful for your family’s service and sacrifice…and we will always have your back.Over the past few years as First Lady, I have had the extraordinary privilege of traveling all across this country.And everywhere I’ve gone, in the people I’ve met, and the stories I’ve heard, I haveseen the very best of the American spirit.I have seen it in the incredible kindness and warmth that people have shown me and my family, especially our girls.I’ve seen it in teachers in a near-bankrupt school district who vowed to keep teaching without pay.I’ve seen it in people who become heroes at a moment’s notice, diving into harm’s way to save others…flying across the country to put out a fire…driving for hours to bail out a flooded town.And I’ve seen it in our men and women in uniform and our proud military families…in wounded warriors who tell me they’re not just going to walk again, they’re going to run, and they’re going to run marathons…in the young man blinded by a bomb in Afghanistan who said, simply, “…I’d give my eyes 100 times again to have the chance to do what I have done and what I can still do.”Every day, the people I meet inspire me…every day, they make me proud…every day they remind me how blessed we are to live in the greatest nation on earth.Serving as your First Lady is an honor and a privilege…but back when we first came together four years ago, I still had some concerns about this journey we’d begun.While I believed deeply in my husband’s vision for this country…and I was certain he would make an extraordinary President…like any mother, I was worried about what it would mean for our girls if he got that chance.How would we keep them grounded under the glare of the national spotlight?How would they feel being uprooted from their school, their friends, and the only home they’d ever known?Our life before moving to Washington was filled with simple joys…Saturdays at soccer games, Sundays at grandma’s house…and a date night for Barack and me was either dinner or a movie, because as an exhausted mom, I couldn’t stay awake for both.And the truth is, I loved the life we had built for our girls…I deeply loved the man I had built that life with…and I didn’t want that to change if he became President.I loved Barack just the way he was.You see, even though back then Barack was Senator and a presidential candidate…to me, he was still the guy who’d picked me up for our dates in a car that was so rusted out, I could actually see the pavement going by through a hole in thepassenger side door…he was the guy whose proudest possession was a coffee table he’d found in a dumpster, and whose only pair of decent shoes was half a size too small.But when Barack started telling me about his family that’s when I knew I had found a kindred spirit, someone whose values and upbringing were so much like mine.You see, Barack and I were both raised by families who didn’t have much in the way of money or material possessions but who had given us something far more valuable their unconditional love, their unflinching sacrifice, and the chance to go places they had never imagined for themselves.My father was a pump operator at the city water plant, and he was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis when my brother and I were young.And even as a kid, I knew there were plenty of days when he was in pain…I knew there were plenty of mornings when it was a struggle for him to simply get out of bed.But every morning, I watched my father wake up with a smile, grab his walker, prop himself up against the bathroom sink, and slowly shave and button his uniform.And when he returned home after a long day’s work, my brother and I would standat the top of the stairs to our little apartment, patiently waiting to greet him…watching as he reached down to lift one leg, and then the other, to slowly climb his way into our arms.But despite these challenges, my dad hardly ever missed a day of work…he and my mom were determined to give me and my brother the kind of education they could only dream of.And when my brother and I finally made it to college, nearly all of our tuition came from student loans and grants.But my dad still had to pay a tiny portion of that tuition himself.And every semester, he was determined to pay that bill right on time, even taking out loans when he fell short.He was so proud to be sending his kids to college…and he made sure we never missed a registration deadline because his check was late.You see, for my dad, that’s what it meant to be a man.Like so many of us, that was the measure of his success in life being able to earn a decent living that allowed him to support his family.And as I got to know Barack, I realized that even though he’d grown up all the way across the country, he’d been brought up just like me.Barack was raised by a single mother who struggled to pay the bills, and by grandparents who stepped in when she needed help.Barack’s grandmother started out as a secretary at a community bank…and she moved quickly up the ranks…but like so many women, she hit a glass ceiling.And for years, men no more qualified than she was men she had actually trained were promoted up the ladder ahead of her, earning more and more money while Barack’s family continued to scrape by.But day after day, she kept on waking up at dawn to catch the bus…arriving at work before anyone else…giving her best without complaint or regret.And she would often tell Barack, “So long as you kids do well, Bar, that’s all that really matters.”Like so many American families, our families weren’t asking for much.They didn’t begrudge anyone else’s success or care that others had much morethan they did…in fact, they admired it.They simply believed in that fundamental American promise that, even if you don’t start out with much, if you work hard and do what you’re supposed to do, then you should be able to build a decent life for yourself and an even better life for your kids and grandkids.That’s how they raised us…that’s what we learned from their example.We learned about dignity and decency that how hard you work matters more than how much you make…that helping others means more than just getting ahead yourself.We learned about honesty and integrity that the truth matters…that you don’t take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules…and success doesn’t count unless you earn it fair and square.We learned about gratitude and humility that so many people had a hand in our success, from the teachers who inspired us to the janitors who kept our school clean…and we were taught to value everyone’s contribution and treat everyone with respect.Those are the values Barack and I and so many of you are trying to pass on to ourown children.That’s who we are.And standing before you four years ago, I knew that I didn’t want any of that to change if Barack became President.Well, today, after so many struggles and triumphs and moments that have tested my husband in ways I never could have imagined, I have seen firsthand that being president doesn’t change who you are it reveals who you are.You see, I’ve gotten to see up close and personal what being president really looks like.And I’ve seen how the issues that come across a President’s desk are always the hard ones the problems where no amount of data or numbers will get you to the right answer…the judgment calls where the stakes are so high, and there is no margin for error.And as President, you can get all kinds of advice from all kinds of people.But at the end of the day, when it comes time to make that decision, as President, all you have to guide you are your values, and your vision, and the life experiencesthat make you who you are.So when it comes to rebuilding our economy, Barack is thinking about folks like my dad and like his grandmother.He’s thinking about the pride that comes from a hard day’s work.That’s why he signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act to help women get equal pay for equal work.That’s why he cut taxes for working families and small businesses and fought to get the auto industry back on its feet.That’s how he brought our economy from the brink of collapse to creating jobs again jobs you can raise a family on, good jobs right here in the United States of America.When it comes to the health of our families, Barack refused to listen to all those folks who told him to leave health reform for another day, another president.He didn’t care whether it was the easy thing to do politically that’s not how he was raised he cared that it was the right thing to do.He did it because he believes that here in America, our grandparents should be able to afford their medicine…our kids should be able to see a doctor when they’re sick…and no one in this country should ever go broke because of an accident or illness.And he believes that women are more than capable of making our own choices about our bodies and our health care…that’s what my husband stands for.When it comes to giving our kids the education they deserve, Barack knows that like me and like so many of you, he never could’ve attended college without financial aid.And believe it or not, when we were first married, our combined monthly student loan bills were actually higher than our mortgage.We were so young, so in love, and so in debt.That’s why Barack has fought so hard to increase student aid and keep interest rates down, because he wants every young person to fulfill their promise and be able to attend college without a mountain of debt.So in the end, for Barack, these issues aren’t political they’re personal.Because Barack knows what it means when a family struggles.He knows what it means to want something more for your kids and grandkids.Barack knows the American Dream because he’s lived it…and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where we’re from, or what we look like, or who we love.And he believes that when you’ve worked hard, and done well, and walked through that doorway of opportunity…you do not slam it shut behind you…you reach back, and you give other folks the same chances that helped you succeed.So when people ask me whether being in the White House has changed my husband, I can honestly say that when it comes to his character, and his convictions, and his heart, Barack Obama is still the same man I fell in love with all those years ago.He’s the same man who started his career by turning down high paying jobs and instead working in struggling neighborhoods where a steel plant had shut down, fighting to rebuild those communities and get folks back to work…because for Barack, success isn’t about how much money you make, it’s about the difference you make in people’s lives.He’s the same man who, when our girls were first born, would anxiously check their cribs every few minutes to ensure they were still breathing, proudly showing them off to everyone we knew.That’s the man who sits down with me and our girls for dinner nearly every night, patiently answering their questions about issues in the news, and strategizing about middle school friendships.That’s the man I see in those quiet moments late at night, hunched over his desk, poring over the letters people have sent him.The letter from the father struggling to pay his bills…from the woman dying of cancer whose insurance company won’t cover her care…from the young person with so much promise but so few opportunities.I see the concern in his eyes…and I hear the determination in his voice as he tells me, “You won’t believe what these folks are going through, Michelle…it’s not right. We’ve got to keep working to fix this. We’ve got so much more to do.”I see how those stories our collection of struggles and hopes and dreams I see how that’s what drives Barack Obama every single day.And I didn’t think it was possible, but today, I love my husband even more than Idid four years ago…even more than I did 23 years ago, when we first met.I love that he’s never forgotten how he started.I love that we can trust Barack to do what he says he’s going to do, even when it’s hard especially when it’s hard.I love that for Barack, there is no such thing as “us”and “them”he doesn’t care whether you’re a Democrat, a Republican, or none of the above…he knows that we all love our country…and he’s always ready to listen to good ideas…he’s always looking for the very best in everyone he meets.And I love that even in the toughest moments, when we’re all sweating it when we’re worried that the bill won’t pass, and it seems like all is lost Barack never lets himself get distracted by the chatter and the noise.Just like his grandmother, he just keeps getting up and moving forward…with patience and wisdom, and courage and grace.And he reminds me that we are playing a long game here…and that change is hard, and change is slow, and it never happens all at once.But eventually we get there, we always do.We get there because of folks like my Dad…folks like Barack’s grandmother…men and women who said to themselves, “I may not have a chance to fulfill my dreams, but maybe my children will…maybe my grandchildren will.”So many of us stand here tonight because of their sacrifice, and longing, and steadfast love…because time and again, they swallowed their fears and doubts and did what was hard.So today, when the challenges we face start to seem overwhelming or even impossible let us never forget that doing the impossible is the history of this nation…it’s who we are as Americans…it’s how this country was built.And if our parents and grandparents could toil and struggle for us…if they could raise beams of steel to the sky, send a man to the moon, and connect the world with the touch of a button…then surely we can keep on sacrificing and building for our own kids and grandkids.And if so many brave men and women could wear our country’s uniform and sacrifice their lives for our most fundamental rights…then surely we can do our part as citizens of this great democracy to exercise those rights…surely, we can get to the polls and make our voices heard on Election Day.If farmers and blacksmiths could win independence from an empire…if immigrants could leave behind everything they knew for a better life on our shores…if women could be dragged to jail for seeking the vote…if a generation could defeat a depression, and define greatness for all time…if a young preacher could lift us to the mountaintop with his righteous dream…and if proud Americans can be who they are and boldly stand at the altar with who they love…then surely, surely we can give everyone in this country a fair chance at that great American Dream.Because in the end, more than anything else, that is the story of this country the story of unwavering hope grounded in unyielding struggle.That is what has made my story, and Barack’s story, and so many other American stories possible.And I say all of this tonight not just as First Lady…and not just as a wife.You see, at the end of the day, my most important title is still “mom-in-chief.”My daughters are still the heart of my heart and the center of my world.But today, I have none of those worries from four years ago about whether Barack and I were doing what’s best for our girls.Because today, I know from experience that if I truly want to leave a better world for my daughters, and all our sons and daughters…if we want to give all our children a foundation for their dreams and opportunities worthy of their promise…if we want to give them that sense of limitless possibility that belief that here in America, there is always something better out there if you’re willing to work for it…then we must work like never before…and we must once again come together and stand together for the man we can trust to keep moving this great country forward…my husband, our President, President Barack Obama.Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America.Transcript: Michelle Obama\'s Convention SpeechSeptember 4,2012Thank you so much, Elaine...we are so grateful for

before anyone else...giving her best without complaint or regret.And she would often tell Barack, "So long as you kids do well, Bar, that\'s all that really matters."Like so many American families, our families weren\'t asking for much.They didn\'t begrudge anyone else\'s success or care that others had much more than they did...in fact, they admired it.They simply believed in that fundamental American promise that, even if you don\'t start out with much, if you work hard and do what you\'re supposed to do, then you should be able to build a decent life for yourself and an even better life for your kids and grandkids.That\'s how they raised us...that\'s what we learned from their example.We learned about dignity and decency – that how hard you work matters more than how much you make...that helping others means more than just getting ahead yourself.We learned about honesty and integrity – that the truth matters...that you don\'t take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules...and success doesn\'t count unless you earn it fair and square.We learned about gratitude and humility – that so many people had a hand in our success, from the teachers who inspired us to the janitors who kept our school clean...and we were taught to value everyone\'s contribution and treat everyone with respect.Those are the values Barack and I – and so many of you – are trying to pass on to our own children.That\'s who we are.And standing before you four years ago, I knew that I didn\'t want any of that to change if Barack became President.Well, today, after so many struggles and triumphs and moments that have tested my husband in ways I never could have imagined, I have seen firsthand that being president doesn\'t change who you are – it reveals who you are.You see, I\'ve gotten to see up close and personal what being president really looks like.And I\'ve seen how the issues that come across a President\'s desk are always the hard ones – the problems where no amount of data or numbers will get you to the right answer...the judgment calls where the stakes are so high, and there is no margin for error.And as President, you can get all kinds of advice from all kinds of people.But at the end of the day, when it comes time to make that decision, as President, all you have to guide you are your values, and your vision, and the life experiences that make you who you are.So when it comes to rebuilding our economy, Barack is thinking about folks like my dad and like his grandmother.He\'s thinking about the pride that comes from a hard day\'s work.That\'s why he signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act to help women get equal pay for equal work.That\'s why he cut taxes for working families and small businesses and fought to get the auto industry back on its feet.That\'s how he brought our economy from the brink of collapse to creating jobs again – jobs you can raise a family on, good jobs right here in the United States of America.When it comes to the health of our families, Barack refused to listen to all those folks who told him to leave health reform for another day, another president.He didn\'t care whether it was the easy thing to do politically – that\'s not how he was raised – he cared that it was the right thing to do.He did it because he believes that here in America, our grandparents should be able to afford their medicine...our kids should be able to see a doctor when they\'re sick...and no one in this country should ever go broke because of an accident or illness.And he believes that women are more than capable of making our own choices about our bodies and our health care...that\'s what my husband stands for.When it comes to giving our kids the education they deserve, Barack knows that like me and like so many of you, he never could\'ve attended college without financial aid.And believe it or not, when we were first married, our combined monthly student loan bills were actually higher than our mortgage.We were so young, so in love, and so in debt.That\'s why Barack has fought so hard to increase student aid and keep interest rates down, because he wants every young person to fulfill their promise and be able to attend college without a mountain of debt.So in the end, for Barack, these issues aren\'t political – they\'re personal.Because Barack knows what it means when a family struggles.He knows what it means to want something more for your kids and grandkids.Barack knows the American Dream because he\'s lived it...and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where we\'re from, or what we look like, or who we love.And he believes that when you\'ve worked hard, and done well, and walked through that doorway of opportunity...you do not slam it shut behind you...you reach back, and you give other folks the same chances that helped you succeed.So when people ask me whether being in the White House has changed my husband, I can honestly say that when it comes to his character, and his convictions, and his heart, Barack Obama is still the same man I fell in love with all those years ago.He\'s the same man who started his career by turning down high paying jobs and instead working in struggling neighborhoods where a steel plant had shut down, fighting to rebuild those communities and get folks back to work...because for Barack, success isn\'t about how much money you make, it\'s about the difference you make in people\'s lives.。

篇一:米歇尔演讲稿英文原稿:first lady michelle obama:孩子们应该受到很好的教育,说道这个问题,barack 懂得,就像我们中很多人一样,没有助学金他就也不可能上大学。

你们相信吗?在我和他新婚之时,我们的助学贷款的压力甚至远大于房贷。

当时我们那么年轻,还负债累累。

thats why barack has fought so hard to increase student aid and keep interest rates down, because he wants every young person to fulfill their promise and be able to attend college without a mountain of debt.因此,barack 竭尽全力提高助学金额度,同时压低利息,他希望让每一个年轻人都能大展宏图,不必为了求学债台高筑so in the end, for barack, these issues arent political – theyre personal. because barack knows what it means when a family struggles. he knows what it means to want something more for your kids and grandkids.他懂得希望子孙过上好日子是这样一种感受。

他知道什么是美国梦,因为他曾亲身经历。

他希望每一个人都能有相同的机会。

barack knows the american dream because hes lived it...and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where were from, or what we look like, or who we love.他知道什么是美国梦,因为他曾亲身经历。

美国第一夫人米歇尔·奥巴马2012年9月4日在民主党全国代表大会上的演讲

美国第一夫人米歇尔·奥巴马2012年9月4日在民主党全国代表大会上的演讲

First Lady Michelle Obama:Thank you so much, Elaine…we are so grateful for your family’s service and sacrifice…and we will always have your back.Over the past few years as First Lady, I have had the extraordinary privilege of traveling all across this country.And everywhere I’ve gone, in the people I’ve met, and the stories I’ve heard, I have seen the very best of the American spirit.I have seen it in the incredible kindness and warmth that people have shown me and my family, especially our girls.I’ve seen it in teachers in a near-bankrupt school district who vowed to keep teaching without pay.I’ve seen it in people who become heroes at a moment’s notice, diving into harm’s way to save others…flying across the country to put out a fire…driving f or hours to bail out a flooded town.And I’ve seen it in our men and women in uniform and our proud military families…in wounded warriors who tell me they’re not just going to walk again, they’re going to run, and they’re going to run marathons…in the young man blinded by a bomb in Afghanistan who said, simply, “…I’d give my eyes 100 times again to have the chance to do what I have done and what I can still do.”Every day, the people I meet inspire me…every day, they make me proud…every day they remind me how blessed we are to live in the greatest nation on earth.Serving as your First Lady is an honor and a privilege…but back when we first came together four years ago, I still had some concerns about this journey we’d begun.While I believed deeply in m y husband’s vision for this country…and I was certain he would make an extraordinary President…like any mother, I was worried about what it would mean for our girls if he got that chance.How would we keep them grounded under the glare of the national spotlight?How would they feel being uprooted from their school, their friends, and the only home they’d ever known?Our life before moving to Washington was filled with simple joys…Saturdays at soccer games, Sundays at grandma’s house…and a date night for Barack and me was either dinner or a movie, because as an exhausted mom, I couldn’t stay awake for both.And the truth is, I loved the life we had built for our girls…I deeply loved the man I had built that life with…and I didn’t want that to change if he became President.I loved Barack just the way he was.You see, even though back then Barack was Senator and a presidential candidate…to me, he was still the guy who’d picked me up for our dates in a car that was so rusted out, I could actually see the p avement going by through a hole in the passenger side door…he was the guy whose proudest possession was a coffee table he’d found in a dumpster, and whose only pair of decent shoes was half a size too small.But when Barack started telling me about his fa mily that’s when I knew I had found a kindred spirit, someone whose values and upbringing were so much like mine.You see, Barack and I were both raised by families who didn’t have much in the way of money or material possessions but who had given us something far more valuable their unconditional love, their unflinching sacrifice, and the chance to go places they had never imagined for themselves.My father was a pump operator at the city water plant, and he was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis when my brother and I were young.And even as a kid, I knew there were plenty of days when he was in pain…I knew there were plenty of mornings when it was a struggle for him to simply get out of bed.But every morning, I watched my father wake up with a smile, grab his walker, prop himself up against the bathroom sink, and slowly shave and button his uniform.And when he returned home after a long day’s work, my brother and I would stand at the top of the stairs to our little apartment, patiently waiting to gree t him…watching as he reached down to lift one leg, and then the other, to slowly climb his way into our arms.But despite these challenges, my dad hardly ever missed a day of work…he and my mom were determined to give me and my brother the kind of education they could only dream of.And when my brother and I finally made it to college, nearly all of our tuition came from student loans and grants.But my dad still had to pay a tiny portion of that tuition himself.And every semester, he was determined to pay that bill right on time, even taking out loans when he fell short.He was so proud to be sending his kids to college…and he made sure we never missed aregistration deadline because his check was late.You see, for my dad, that’s what it meant to be a man.Like so many of us, that was the measure of his success in life being able to earn a decent living that allowed him to support his family.And as I got to know Barack, I realized that even though he’d grown up all the way across the country, he’d been brought up just like me.Barack was raised by a single mother who struggled to pay the bills, and by grandparents who stepped in when she needed help.Barack’s grandmother started out as a secretary at a community bank…and she moved quickly up the ranks…but like so many women, she hit a glass ceiling.And for years, men no more qualified than she was men she had actually trained were promoted up the ladder ahead of her, earning more and more money while Barack’s family continued to scrape by.But day after day, she kept on waking up at dawn to catch the bus…arriving at work before anyone else…giving her best without complaint or regret.And she would often tell Barack, “So long as you kids do well, Bar, that’s all that really matters.”Like so ma ny American families, our families weren’t asking for much.They didn’t begrudge anyone else’s success or care that others had much more than they did…in fact, they admired it.They simply believed in that fundamental American promise that, even if you d on’t start out with much, if you work hard and do what you’re supposed to do, then you should be able to build a decent life for yourself and an even better life for your kids and grandkids.That’s how they raised us…that’s what we learned from their exam ple.We learned about dignity and decency that how hard you work matters more than how much you make…that helping others means more than just getting ahead yourself.We learned about honesty and integrity that the truth matters…that you don’t take shortc uts or play

inspired us to the janitors who kept our school clean…and we were taught tovalue everyone’s contribution and treat everyone with respect.Those are the values Barack and I and so many of you are trying to pass on to our own children.That’s who we are.And standing before you four years ago, I knew that I didn’t want any of that to change if Barack became President.Well, today, after so many struggles and triumphs and moments that have tested my husband in ways I never could have imagined, I have seen firsthand that being president doesn’t change who you are it reveals who you are.You see, I’ve

in love, and so in debt.That’s why Barack has fought so hard to increase student aid and keep interest rates down, because he wants every young person to fulfill their promise and be able to attend

reach back, and you g ive other folks the same chances that helped you succeed.So when people ask me whether being in the White House has changed my husband, I can honestly say that when it comes to his character, and his convictions, and his heart, Barack Obama is still the same man I fell in love with all those years ago.He’s the same man who started his career by turning down high paying jobs and instead working in struggling neighborhoods where a steel plant had shut down, fighting to rebuild those communities and get fo lks back to work…because for Barack, success isn’t about how much money you make, it’s about the difference you make in people’s lives.He’s the same man who, when our girls were first born, would anxiously check their cribs every few minutes to ensure they were still breathing, proudly showing them off to everyone we knew.That’s the man who sits down with me and our girls for dinner nearly every night, patiently answering their questions about issues in the news, and strategizing about middle school friendships.That’s the man I see in those quiet moments late at night, hunched over his desk, poring over the letters people have sent him.The letter from the father struggling to pay his bills…from the woman dying of cancer whose insurance company won’t cover her care…from the young person with so much promise but so few opportunities.I see the concern in his eyes…and I hear the determination in his voice as he tells me, “You won’t believe what these folks are going through, Michelle…it’s not right. We’ve got to keep working to fix this. We’ve got so much more to do.”I see how those stories our collection of struggles and hopes and dreams I see how that’s what drives Barack Obama every single day.And I didn’t think it was possible, but today, I love my husband even more than I did four years ago…even more than I did 23 years ago, when we first met.I love that he’s never forgotten how he started.I love that we can trust Barack to do what he says he’s going to do, even when it’s hard especially when it’s hard.I love that for Barack, there is no such thing as “us” and “them” he doesn’t care whether you’re a Democrat, a Republican, or none of the above…he knows that we all love our country…and he’s always ready to listen to good ideas…he’s always loo king for the very best in everyone he meets.And I love that even in the toughest moments, when we’re all sweating it when we’re worried that the bill won’t pass, and it seems like all is lost Barack never lets himself get distracted by the chatter and the noise.Just like his grandmother, he just keeps getting up and moving forward…with patience and wisdom, and courage and grace.And he reminds me that we are playing a long game here…and that change is hard, and change is slow, and it never happens all at once.But eventually we get there, we always do.We get there because of folks like my Dad…folks like Barack’s grandmother…men and women who said to themselves, “I may not have a chance to fulfill my dreams, but maybe my childrenwill…maybe my grandchildren will.”So many of us stand here tonight because of their sacrifice, and longing, and steadfast love…because time and again, they swallowed their fears and doubts and did what was hard.So today, when the challenges we face start to seem overwhelming or even impossible let us never forget that doing the impossible is the history of this nation…it’s who we are as Americans…it’s how this country was built.And if our parents and grandparents could toil and struggle for us…if they could raise beams of steel to the sky, send a man to the moon, and connect the world with the touch of a button…then surely we can keep on sacrificing and building for our own kids and grandkids.And if so many brave men and women could wear our country’s uniform and sacrifi ce their lives for our most fundamental rights…then surely we can do our part as citizens of this great democracy to exercise those rights…surely, we can get to the polls and make our voices heard on Election Day.If farmers and blacksmiths could win inde pendence from an empire…if immigrants could leave behind everything they knew for a better life on our shores…if women could be dragged to jail for seeking the vote…if a generation could defeat a depression, and define greatness for all time…if a young pre acher could lift us to the mountaintop with his righteous dream…and if proud Americans can be who they are and boldly stand at the altar with who they love…then surely, surely we can give everyone in this country a fair chance at that great American Dream.Because in the end, more than anything else, that is the story of this country the story of unwavering hope grounded in unyielding struggle.That is what has made my story, and Barack’s story, and so many other American stories possible.And I say all of this tonight not just as First Lady…and not just as a wife.You see, at the end of the day, my most important title is still “mom-in-chief.”My daughters are still the heart of my heart and the center of my world.But today, I have none of those worries from four years ago about whether Barack and I were doing what’s best for our girls.Because today, I know from experience that if I truly want to leave a better world for my daughters, and all our sons and daughters…if we want to give all our childre n a foundation for their dreams and opportunities worthy of their promise…if we want to give them that sense of limitless possibility that belief that here in America, there is always something better out there if you’re willing to work for it…then we must work like never before…and we must once again cometogether and stand together for the man we can trust to keep moving this great country forward…my husband, our President, President Barack Obama.Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America.。

米歇尔演讲

米歇尔演讲

米歇尔•奥巴马温情演讲第一夫人感动全场When it comes to giving our kids the education they deserve, Barack knows that like me and like so many of you, he never could've attended college without financial aid.孩子们应该受到很好的教育,说到这个问题,巴拉克懂得,就像我们中很多人一样,没有助学金他就也不可能上大学。

And believe it or not, when we were first married, our combined monthly student loan bills were actually higher than our mortgage. We were so young, so in love, and so in debt.你们相信吗?在我和他新婚之时,我们的助学贷款的压力甚至远大于房贷。

当时我们那么年轻,那么相爱,还负债累累。

That's why Barack has fought so hard to increase student aid and keep interest rates down, because he wants every young person to fulfill their promise and be able to attend college without a mountain of debt.因此,巴拉克竭尽全力提高助学金额度,同时压低利息,他希望让每一个年轻人都能大展宏图,不必为了求学债台高筑。

So in the end, for Barack, these issues aren't political - they're personal. Because Barack knows what it means when a family struggles. He knows what it means to want something more for your kids and grandkids. Barack knows the American Dream because he's lived it...and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where we're from, or what we look like, or who we love.归根到底,这些对他来说根本无关政治,推己及人而已。

巴拉克的祖母最初在社区银行当秘书……她升职很快……但就和其他许多女性一样,她的升职最终还是受到了性别限制。
数年间,那些不如她有能力的男性员工——事实上,还是她亲手培训的男性员工——都被提升到了比她高的职位,挣的钱越来越多,而与此同时,巴拉克一家只能勉强度日。
但一天又一天,她仍然早起去赶公车……比其他任何人都早到公司……她总是做到最好,从不抱怨,从不懊悔。
如果你要问我白宫这四年是否改变我的丈夫?我可以坦诚相告,不论是看他的品格,信仰,还是内心,此时此刻的他是彼时彼地我相爱的那个人!如今的他还会像那时一样,拒绝高薪工作,而深入社区基层,去帮助濒临倒闭的钢厂的职工和家属。去重建那样的社区,帮助人们再度就业。因为对他来讲,成功的标准并不是收入,而是你对他人生的积极影响。他还是那个当女儿刚降生时,会分分钟钟就跑到婴儿床边查看女儿是否还在呼吸的那个父亲。会抱着女儿去找所有的熟人显摆。他至今仍每晚和我跟女儿一起吃晚餐。耐心地回答她们关于新闻和时事的问题,为她们在学校交朋友的事儿出谋划策。每天深夜我都见到他在办公室沉默着,翻着一封封寄给他的信。有的信来自艰难谋生维持家用的父亲,有的来自被保险公司弃之不管的病入膏肓的女性,有的信来自徒有大志却怀才不遇的年轻人,我看到他为此忧心不已,他无比坚定地对我说:你无法想象他们过着什么样的日子,米歇尔,这是不对的!我们必须再接再厉去改变这些,我们做的还远远不够!
过去的几ቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱ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。
这些是巴拉克和我——以及在场的众多人士——都试图传递给子女的价值观。
我们就是这样的人。
四年前,站在你们面前的我知道,如果巴拉克成为总统,我不愿意这些价值观产生任何改变。
那么,今天,在那么多的艰苦奋斗和胜利,以及我的丈夫所经历过的那么多我从未想象过的考验之后,我亲眼认识到,当总统并不会改变一个人——它只会揭示一个人。

至于我们的家庭健康问题,巴拉克拒绝听从所有那些要他暂缓医疗改革,把问题留给下一任总统的人。
他不在乎这在政治上是不是一件容易的事——这不是他所受到的教育——他在乎的是:做正确的事。
他这样做,是因为他坚信在美国,我们的祖父母们应该能够负担自己的医药费用……我们的孩子生病时必须能够去看医生……而且,在这个国家里,没有人应该因为一场意外或疾病而破产。
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。
当哥哥和我终于升上大学的时候,我们几乎所有的学费都来源于学生贷款和补助金。
但是我父亲仍不得不自己掏腰包来支付我们学费中的一小部分。
每个学期,他都坚持按时支付学费账单,在他捉襟见肘的时候,他甚至宁可去贷款。
能送自己的子女去上大学,他是如此地骄傲……他从未让我们因为父亲姗姗来迟的支票而错过任何一个报到截止日期。
我看到那些故事,那些艰难困苦和那些梦想希望,正是那一切让奥巴马每日为之努力,从前的我绝想不到今天的我反而比四年前更爱我的丈夫了,甚至远胜23年前我们相爱时,我爱他!因为他不忘本!我爱他,因为他会去履行承诺,困难当头他只会越挫越勇!我爱他,因为他对人们一视同仁!从不管你是那个党派,又或是有无党派。他知道我们都深爱这个国家,他愿意倾听,从善如流,他愿意去挖掘每个人身上的闪光点!我爱他,因为在艰难无比,揪心不已的时刻,在法案可能无法通过,一切都可能重头再来的时候。他从不会被四面的楚歌所动摇,就像他的祖母一样,他会重新振作,再度前进,用他的耐心,智慧,勇气和气度!他总会提醒我们任重道远,变革往往艰难而缓慢,根本无法一撅而起,但总有一天,我们会成功,就如既往的那些胜利,我们会最终达到彼岸,因为像我的父母,他的祖母,还有所有像他们一样的人都对自己承诺,我没能实现自己的梦想,但或许我的孩子们可以,或许的们的孙辈可以,我,我们今天能站在这里,就归功于他们的奉献,渴望和从不动摇的爱,归功于他们一次又一次压在自己的恐惧和疑惑,艰苦奋斗。所以当今我们面对的挑战似乎艰巨得难以克服,请别忘记开创不可能的奇迹,正是我们国家的历史,美国人就是这样,我们的国家就是这么建立起来的。如果我们的父母先辈可以为了我们而艰苦奋斗,如果他们可以建起摩天大楼,把人类送上月球,如果他们可以用一根按钮就把世界连接,那是当然,我们也可以我们的后代而牺牲自我,努力建设。如果那么多英勇的军人可以穿起戎装上阵,为捍卫我们的根本利益牺牲生命!那么当然作为这个民主之国的一份子我们也可以发挥自己的作用!当然我们也可以通过投票,让我们的呼声响彻大选之日;如果农民和铁匠都可以从一个帝国中谋求独立,如果移民们可以放下从前的一切来到这里寻求美好的生活;如果妇女们冒着牢狱之灾也要投票;如果一代人可以打败大萧条,成就一番事业;如果一位年轻的牧师可以用他的正义理想把我们送上平等之巅;如果美国人民为他们的身份而自豪,为他们所爱的人而勇敢的站在讲台上。那么当然,当然我们可以给人们平等的机会,去实现自己的美国梦!因为当尘埃落定,胜过一切的是这个国家的故事,一个希望不死,斗志永存的励志传说,我的故事,奥巴马的故事,和千千万万美国人的故事,也因此成真,今天我不仅是第一夫人,也不仅是代表一个妻子,每当一天的工作结束,我的身份就只是一个操心的妈妈,我的女儿仍是我的心头肉,我世界的中心,但今天我不再像四年前般顾虑重重,不再担心我和他怎么做才是对孩子们最好的。亲身经历告诉我,如果要想给我的女儿和全天下的孩子创造一个美好的世界,如果我们想给他们一个梦想的基础和一展抱负的机遇,如果我们想让他们相信一切皆有可能,让他们相信在美国,只要努力就一定能有回报,那么我们比任何时候,任何人都更加努力。我们必须再度团结一致,去一起支持肩负着你我信任,去领导我们前进的那个男人,我的丈夫,我们的总统——奥巴马!谢谢!
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。
你们瞧,即便当时巴拉克已经是一名参议员兼总统候选人了……对我而言,他仍是那个开着辆锈迹斑斑的破车来接我去约会的男子,我几乎都能透过乘客这侧车门上的破洞看到飞逝而过的路面……他仍是那个把一张从垃圾箱里翻出来的咖啡桌当做自己最了不起的财产的男子,那个仅有的一双体面的鞋子比自己的脚还小了半号的男子。

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。
而且,她常常这样告诉巴拉克:“只要你的孩子过得好,巴,其他什么都不重要。”
就和许许多多美国家庭一样,我们俩的家庭都知足常乐。
他们并不嫉妒其他人的成功,也不在意其他人是否比他们拥有更多……事实上,他们为此心存感激。
他们就是心怀着最根本的美国希望,即是说,哪怕你出身贫寒,只要你努力工作,做好本职,那么你就能让自己过上体面的生活,而你的子女和他们的孩子也会过得越来越好。
奥巴马夫人米歇尔的演讲稿
相飞按语:善于取人之长,才有文明进步。国如此,人亦然。米歇尔置身“不同阵营”,但从这则演讲稿中,她告诉我们许多。不只是演说技巧,更在于一些人生理念。比如工作与生活、家庭与事业的关系。从演讲技巧上说,演说从百姓寻常事说起,“有大有小、小不离大”,主题始终不离“支持奥巴马”;从其体现的思想而言,我概括为“舍我其谁的担当、坚忍不拔的意志、拯救苍生的情怀、庸常家庭的温馨”,这其实与中华文明是一致的。确实是好文,故反复读之。我们欣赏西方某些优点,并非就是西化,而是要为我所用,这是百年前国门初开时已有的定论,即“中体西用”(注:对这个理念要赋予新的内涵,才不会盲目排斥)。把握了这一点,才能把握中华文明的未来!
因此,当说到重建经济的时候,巴拉克想到的是像我的父亲和他的祖母一样的人们。
他想到的是一天辛勤工作所带来的自豪感。
