奥巴马英文演讲稿：签署金融改革法案
THE PRESIDENT: Well, good morning, everyone.AUDIENCE: Good morning.THE PRESIDENT: We are gathered in the heart of our nation’s capital, surrounded by memorials to leaders and citizens who served our nation in its earliest days and in its days of greatest trial.Today is such a time for America.Over the past two years, we have faced the worst recession since the Great Depression.Eight million people lost their jobs.Tens of millions saw the value of their homes and retirement savings plummet.Countless businesses have been unable to get the loans they need and many have been forced to shut their doors.And although the economy is growing again, too many people are still feeling the pain of the downturn.Now, while a number of factors led to such a severe recession, the primary cause was a breakdown in our financial system.It was a crisis born of a failure of responsibility from certain corners of Wall Street to the halls of power in Washington.For years, our financial sector was governed by antiquated and poorly enforced rules that allowed some to game the system and take risks that endangered the entire economy.Unscrupulous lenders locked consumers into complex loans with hidden costs.Firms like AIG placed massive, risky bets with borrowed money.And while the rules left abuse and excess unchecked, they also left taxpayers on the hook if a big bank or financial institution ever failed.Now, even before the crisis hit, I went to Wall Street and I called for common-sense reforms to protect consumers and our economy as a whole.And soon after taking office, I proposed a set of reforms to empower consumers and investors, to bring the shadowy deals that caused this crisis into the light of day, and to put a stop to taxpayer bailouts once and for all.(Applause.)Today, thanks to a lot of people in this room, those reforms will become the law of the land.For the last year, Chairmen Barney Frank and Chris Dodd have worked day and night--(applause)--Barney and Chris have worked day and night to bring about this reform.And I am profoundly grateful to them.I would be remiss if I didn't also express my appreciation to Senator Harry Reid and Speaker Nancy Pelosi for their leadership.It wouldn’t have happened without them.(Applause.)Passing this bill was no easy task.To get there, we had to overcome the furious lobbying of an array of powerful interest groups and a partisan minority determined to block change.So the members who are here today, both on the stage and in the audience, they have done a great service in devoting so much time and expertise to this effort, to looking out for the public interests and not the special interests.(Applause.)And I also want to thank the three Republican senators who put partisanship aside--(applause)--judged this bill on the merits, and voted for reform.We’re grateful to them.(Applause.)And the Republican House members.(Applause.)Good to see you, Joe.(Applause.)Now, let’s put this in perspective.The fact is, the financial industry is central to our nation’s ability to grow, to prosper, to compete and to innovate.There are a lot of banks that understand and fulfill this vital role, and there are a whole lot of bankers who want to do right--and do right--by their customers.This reform will help foster innovation, not hamper it.It is designed to make sure that everybody follows the same set of rules, so that firms compete on price and quality, not on tricks and not on traps.It demands accountability and responsibility from everyone.It provides certainty to everybody, from bankers to farmers to business owners to consumers.And unless your business model depends on cutting corners or bilking your customers, you’ve got nothing to fear from reform.(Applause.)Now, for all those Americans who are wondering what Wall Street reform means for you, here’s what you can expect.If you’ve ever applied for a credit card, a student loan, or a mortgage, you know the feeling of signing your name to pages of barely understandable fine print.What often happens as a result is that many Americans are caught by hidden fees and penalties, or saddled with loans they can’t afford.That’s what happened to Robin Fox, hit with a massive rate increase on her credit card balance even though she paid her bills on time.That’s what happened to Andrew Giordano, who discovered hundreds of dollars in overdraft fees on his bank statement –-fees he had no idea he might face.Both are here today.Well, with this law, unfair rate hikes, like the one that hit Robin, will end for good.(Applause.)And we’ll ensure that people like Andrew aren’t unwittingly caught by overdraft fees when they sign up for a checking account.(Applause.)With this law, we’ll crack down on abusive practices in the mortgage industry.We’ll make sure that contracts are simpler-– putting an end to many hidden penalties and fees in complex mortgages-– so folks know what they’re signing.With this law, students who take out college loans will be provided clear and concise information about their obligations.And with this law, ordinary investors-– like seniors and folks saving for retirement –-will be able to receive more information about the costs and risks of mutual funds and other investment products, so that they can make better financial decisions as to what will work for them.So, all told, these reforms represent the strongest consumer financial protections in history.(Applause.)In history.And these protections will be enforced by a new consumer watchdog with just one job: looking out for people-– not big banks, not lenders, not investment houses-– looking out for people as they interact with the financial system.And that’s not just good for consumers;that’s good for the economy.Because reform will put a stop to a lot of the bad loans that fueled a debt-based bubble.And it will mean all companies will have to seek customers by offering better products, instead of more deceptive ones.Now, beyond the consumer protections I’ve outlined, reform will also rein in the abuse and excess that nearly brought down our financial system.It will finally bring transparency to the kinds of complex and risky transactions that helped trigger the financial crisis.Shareholders will also have a greater say on the pay of CEOs and other executives, so they can reward success instead of failure.And finally, because of this law, the American people will never again be asked to foot the bill for Wall Street’s mistakes.(Applause.)There will be no more tax-funded bailouts--period.(Applause.)If a large financial institution should ever fail, this reform gives us the ability to wind it down without endangering the broader economy.And there will be new rules to make clear that no firm is somehow protected because it is “too big to fail,” so we don’t have another AIG.That's what this reform will mean.Now, it doesn’t mean our work is over.For these new rules to be effective, regulators will have to be vigilant.We may need to make adjustments along the way as our financial system adapts to these new changes and changes around the globe.No law can force anybody to be responsible;it’s still incumbent on those on Wall Street to heed the lessons of this crisis in terms of how they conduct their businesses.The fact is every American-– from Main Street to Wall Street –-has a stake in our financial system.Wall Street banks and firms invest the capital that makes it possible for start-ups to sell new products.They provide loans to businesses to expand and to hire.They back mortgages for families purchasing a new home.That’s why we’ll all stand to gain from these reforms.We all win when investors around the world have confidence in our markets.We all win when shareholders have more power and more information.We all win when consumers are protected against abuse.And we all win when folks are rewarded based on how well they perform, not how well they evade accountability.In the end, our financial system only works –-our market is only free –-when there are clear rules and basic safeguards that prevent abuse, that check excess, that ensure that it is more profitable to play by the rules than to game the system.And that’s what these reforms are designed to achieve--no more, no less.Because that’s how we will ensure that our economy works for consumers, that it works for investors, that it works for financial institutions-– that it works for all of us.This is the central lesson not only of this crisis but of our history.Ultimately, there’s no dividing line between Main Street and Wall Street.We rise or fall together as one nation.So these reforms will help lift our economy and lead all of us to a stronger, more prosperous future.And that’s why I’m so honored to sign these reforms into law, and I’m so grateful to everybody who worked so hard to make this day possible.Thank you very much, everybody.(Applause.)(The bill is signed.)(Applause.)【相关中文报道】
美国当地时间21日，美国金融监管进入新的时代。美国总统奥巴马正式签署了金融监管改革法案。在过去的一年多的时间里，奥巴马冲破重重阻力，终于使得这项盖着奥巴马烙印的金改法案在国会通过，成为法律。
这份金融改革法案全称《2010年华尔街改革和消费者保护法》，简称《多德—弗兰克法案》，被认为是20世纪30年代以来美国改革力度最大、影响最深远的金融监管改革。
改革后，将对美国最大型银行征收新的费用，并对其业务活动加以限制；对总额450万亿美元的衍生品市场实施新的限制；并将针对抵押贷款和信用卡产品建立一家新的个人消费者保护机构。
奥巴马在这项立法的签署仪式上表示：“金融改革不光对个人消费者来说是件好事，对美国经济来说也同样是件好事。通过这项法案不是一项容易的任务；为了实现这一目标，我们不得不克服了一系列强有力的利益团体猛烈的游说活动，以及决心阻碍改革的少数党派人士的反对意见。”
这项法案的获批使得奥巴马在控制华尔街金融公司的问题上取得了重大的胜利。（本段文字来源：经济观察网）奥巴马英文演讲稿：签署金融改革法案
With this law, we’ll crack down on abusive（辱骂的，滥用的）practices in the mortgage industry.We’ll make sure that contracts are simpler-– putting an end to many hidden penalties and fees in complex mortgages-– so folks know what they’re signing.With this law, students who take out college loans will be provided clear and concise information about their obligations.And with this law, ordinary investors-– like seniors and folks saving for retirement –-will be able to receive more information about the costs and risks of mutual funds and other investment products, so that they can make better financial decisions as to what will work for them.So, all told, these reforms represent the strongest consumer financial protections in history.(Applause.)In history.And these protections will be enforced by a new consumer watchdog with just one job: looking out for people-– not big banks, not lenders, not investment houses-– looking out for people as they interact with the financial system.And that’s not just good for consumers;that’s good for the economy.Because reform will put a stop to a lot of the bad loans that fueled a debt-based bubble.And it will mean all companies will have to seek customers by offering better products, instead of more deceptive（欺诈的，迷惑的）ones.Now, beyond the consumer protections I’ve outlined, reform will also rein in the abuse and excess that nearly brought down our financial system.It will finally bring transparency to the kinds of complex and risky transactions that helped trigger the financial crisis.Shareholders will also have a greater say on the pay of CEOs and other executives, so they can reward success instead of failure.And finally, because of this law, the American people will never again be asked to foot the bill（负担费用）for Wall Street’s mistakes.(Applause.)There will be no more tax-funded bailouts--period.(Applause.)If a large financial institution should ever fail, this reform gives us the ability to wind it down without endangering the broader economy.And there will be new rules to make clear that no firm is somehow protected because it is “too big to fail,” so we don’t have another AIG.That's what this reform will mean.Now, it doesn’t mean our work is over.For these new rules to be effective, regulators will have to be vigilant（警惕的，注意的）.We may need to make adjustments along the way as our financial system adapts to these new changes and changes around the globe.No law can force anybody to be responsible;it’s still incumbent on those on Wall Street to heed the lessons of this crisis in terms of how they conduct their businesses.The fact is every American-– from Main Street to Wall Street –-has a stake in our financial system.Wall Street banks and firms invest the capital that makes it possible for start-ups to sell new products.They provide loans to businesses to expand and to hire.They back mortgages for families purchasing a new home.That’s why we’ll all stand to gain from these reforms.We all win when investors around the world have confidence in our markets.We all win when shareholders have more power and more information.We all win when consumers are protected against abuse.And we all win when folks are rewarded based on how well they perform, not how well they evade（逃避）accountability.In the end, our financial system only works –-our market is only free –-when there are clear rules and basic safeguards that prevent abuse, that check excess, that ensure that it is more profitable to play by the rules than to game the system.And that’s what these reforms are designed to achieve--no more, no less.Because that’s how we will ensure that our economy works for consumers, that it works for investors, that it works for financial institutions-– that it works for all of us.This is the central lesson not only of this crisis but of our history.Ultimately, there’s no dividing line between Main Street and Wall Street.We rise or fall together as one nation.So these reforms will help lift our economy and lead all of us to a stronger, more prosperous future.And that’s why I’m so honored to sign these reforms into law, and I’m so grateful to everybody who worked so hard to make this day possible.Thank you very much, everybody.(Applause.)(The bill is signed.)(Applause.)END 11:48 A.M.EDT

美国首任黑人总统奥巴马竞选演讲稿（中英）obama: the change we need this is a defining moment in our history.we face the worst economic crisis since the great depression--760,000 workers have lost their jobs this year.businesses and families cant get credit.home values are falling, and pensions are disappearing.wages are lower than theyve been in a decade, at a time when the costs of health care and college have never been higher.tomorrow, you can give this country the change we need.financiers to factory workers, we all have a stake in each others success because the more americans prosper, the more america prospers.thats why weve had titans of industry whove made it their mission to pay well enough that their employees could afford the products they made--businessmen like warren buffett, whose support im proud to have.thats why our economy hasnt just been the worlds greatest wealth creator--its been the worlds greatest job generator.its been the tide that has lifted the boats of the largest middle class in history.to rebuild that middle class, ill give a tax break to 95% of workers and their families.if you work, pay taxes, and make less than $200,000, youll get a tax cut.if you make more than $250,000, youll still pay taxes at a lower rate than in the 1990s--and capital gains and dividend taxes one-third lower than they were under president reagan.well create two million new jobs by rebuilding our crumbling none of this will be easy.it wont happen overnight.but i believe we can do this because i believe in america.this is the country that allowed our parents and grandparents to believe that even if they couldnt go to college, they could save a little bit each week so their child could;that even if they couldnt have their own business, they could work hard enough so their child could open one of their own.and at every moment in our history, weve risen to meet our challenges because weve never forgotten the fundamental truth that in america, our destiny is not written for us, but by us.so tomorrow, i ask you to write our nations next great chapter.i ask you to believe--not just in my ability to bring about change, but in yours.tomorrow, you can choose policies that invest in our middle class, create new jobs, and grow this economy so that everyone has a chance to succeed.you can choose hope over fear, unity over division, the promise of change over the power of the status quo.if you give me your vote, we wont just win this election--together, we will change this country and change the world.现在是美国历史的关键时刻。我们面临着大萧条以来最为严重的一场经济危机：今年以来已经有76万人失业；企业和家庭无法获得信贷；房价不断下滑，养老金日益缩水；工资降到了十年来的最低水平，同时医疗和教育成本却涨到了有史以来的最高点。在眼下这样的危急时刻，我们承受不起又一个四年的支出增长、千疮百孔的减税措施、或是监管全无──即使是美国联邦储备委员会（fed）前主席格林斯潘（alan greenspan）现在也承认那是个错误。美国需要一个新的方向。这也正是我竞选美国总统的原因所在。
明天，也就是周二，你们将有能力赋予这个国家我们所需要的变革。corbis我的竞选对手麦凯恩参议员为美国作出的贡献令人尊敬。他甚至可以指出他过去曾有几次与自己的党派分道扬镳。然而，在过去八年中，他十之八九都赞同布什总统的主张。而在经济问题上，他仍然无法向美国民众说明，他与布什的做法会有什么太大区别。如果提出的税收计划没有让1亿多美国中产阶级获得一分钱的税项减免，这不是变革──即使是《国家评论》（national review）杂志和其他保守派组织也抱怨说，这个计划对造福中产阶级贡献寥寥。在近年来不断累积的财政赤字上再添5万亿美元，这不是变革。如果解决房市危机的计划又将另外3,000亿美元纳税人的钱置于风险之中，这不是变革──《华尔街日报》编辑委员会称这一计划“产生的问题比解决的问题多”。
如果说我们从此次经济危机中学到了什么的话，那就是我们要患难与共。从首席执行长到公司股东，从金融家到工厂工人，我们每个人都休戚相关，因为美国的民众越富足，美国才会越繁荣。这就是为什么我们有些企业巨头把提高员工薪酬作为自己的一项使命，让员工能买得起自己生产的产品，比如巴菲特（warren buffett）这样的商界人士。我对能有他的支持感到自豪。这就是为什么美国经济不仅是世界上最伟大的财富创造者，也是世界上最伟大的就业机会制造者。它一直托举着有史以来规模最大的中产阶级之舟。
为了重塑美国中产阶级，我将给予95%的工人及其家庭税收减免待遇。如果你工作，就交税；如果年收入不足20万美元，你会获得减税；即使你的年收入超过了25万美元，你所负担的税率也比上世纪九十年代要低──资本利得税和股息税要比里根总统时期低三分之一。
通过重建日益破败的基础设施、在美国的各个角落接通宽带，我们将创造200万个就业岗位。未来的十年中，我将每年在可再生能源领域投资150亿美元，进而新增500万个岗位；这些工作环保、薪酬丰厚、不能外包，而且能帮助我们摆脱对中东石油的依赖。
在医疗问题上，我们不必在政府运营的体系和目前这种我们难以负担的体系之间进行选择。我的竞选对手提出的方案会令美国人有史以来首次为自己获得的医疗福利纳税。我的计划则会让医疗保健成为每个美国人都负担得起、享受得到的服务。根据我的计划，如果你已经有了医疗保险，你将看到的唯一一个变化是保费降低；如果你还没有医疗保险，你将能与国会议员们享受到同样的医疗福利。为了让每个孩子享受到世界级的教育，让他们能在全球经济中竞争21世纪的工作岗位，我将投资早期教育，并且增加师资力量。不过，我同时也会要求更高的标准和更多的责任。我们向每个美国年轻人作出承诺：如果你致力于服务你的社区或是你的国家，我们将确保你能负担得起自己的学费。
在国防安全问题上，我将负责任地结束伊拉克战争，这样我们就不必在这个国家享有巨额财政盈余的情况下每月却要在那里花费100亿美元。为了美国的经济、美国的军队和伊拉克的长期稳定，现在是伊拉克人站出来的时候了。我将最终完成对本·拉登（bin laden）和基地组织恐怖分子的打击，正是这些人制造了9/11恐怖袭击，同时我还会建立新的合作关系、击退21世纪出现的威胁，恢复我们的道德威望，让美国仍然是地球上最后也是最好的希望。这些事情没有一件是轻而易举能办到的，也不是一朝一夕能完成的。但是，我坚信我们能成功，因为我对美国深信不疑。是美国使我们的父辈相信，即使他们自己无法上大学，也可以每周积攒下一些钱来，让他们的孩子接受好的教育；即使他们不能拥有自己的企业，也可以通过努力工作让自己的孩子创办企业。在美国历史的每个时刻，我们都勇敢地站起来面对挑战，因为我们从来没有忘记过这样一个基本真理：在美国，我们的命运并非天定，而是掌握在我们自己的手中。所以，明天，我恳请你们书写美国下一个伟大的篇章。我恳请你们不只相信我带来变革的能力，还有你们自己的能力。明天，你们可以选择这样一种政策──向美国中产阶级进行投入、创造新的就业岗位、实现经济增长让人人都有成功的机会。你们可以选择希望而非恐惧、选择团结而非分裂、选择变革的希望而非墨守成规。如果你们投我的票，我们将不仅赢得此次竞选，还将一起改变这个国家、改变这个世界。篇二：2008年美国大选奥巴马胜选演讲全文(中文英文对照)2008年美国大选奥巴马胜选演讲全文（中文英文对照演说）08年11.5大选美国总统奥巴马胜选演说《美国的变革》
您好，芝加哥。
美国是否暗藏一切皆有可能的巨大潜力？美国是否已经实现开国者锻造的美国梦？民主信仰是否具有强大力量？如果还有人对此报以怀疑，那么今晚这里发生的一切就是答案。学校旁、教堂边，无数人都在排队投票，这一情景我们已经多年未见；3个小时、4个小时，他们为此而等候良久，这是很多同胞有生以来的第一次。因为他们相信，这一次，将不同以往；这一次，因为他们的呼声而有所不同。
无论老少贫富，无论共和党抑或民主党，不管是黑皮肤、白种人、拉丁后裔、亚裔子孙还是本土美国人；无论性向如何，不管健康抑或残疾，所有的美国人民都向全世界传递出这样一条信息：我们从来都不是红蓝阵营的政治堆砌，我们是，而且永远是，美利坚合众国。
长期以来，很多人缺乏信心，对自己所能取得的成就畏首畏尾、疑心重重。如今，我们走在历史的长河里，挺起胸膛，勾勒出美好明天的光辉画卷。
此情此景，等待尤长。然而，就在今晚，在这个大选的日子，在这个具有历史性意义的时刻，由于你们的付出，美国终于迎来了变革。
刚刚，我接到了麦凯恩参议员礼貌得体的祝贺电话。为了此次竞选，他奋战良久、竭尽所能；为了他所深爱的美国，他曾作出了更长久、更努力的奉献。麦凯恩参议员为美国所作出的牺牲是大部分人难以想象的，他这种英勇无私的奉献改善了我们的生活。对于麦凯恩参议员和佩林州长所取得的成就，我对他们致以祝贺。在接下来的几个月里，以重振美国为目标，我期待着与他们的合作。
在此，我想感谢一路陪伴我的竞选搭档，他就是我们即将上任的副总统，乔-拜登。为了让美国广大的工人阶层发出自己的声音，他毫无私心地全身心投入竞选，因为他和那些宾夕法尼亚州斯克兰顿城街头的人们一样，出生平凡，一切白手起家。
如果没有米歇尔-奥巴马，这一准美国第一夫人的坚定支持，今晚，我就不会站在这儿了。我们相伴走过了16个春秋，她是我们整个家庭的顶梁柱，我一生的挚爱。还有，萨沙和玛利亚，我爱你们，你们姊妹俩终于可以带着你们的新宠物狗入主白宫了。我知道，就像我的其他已故亲属一样，外祖母一定也在某处注视着我，虽然她已经不在人世。是他们造就了今天的我。今晚我很想念他们，我对他们的亏欠无以计量。
我的妹妹玛雅，我的妹妹阿尔玛，我的所有其他的兄弟姐妹们，感谢你们给了我这么多的一切支持，我感谢他们。
和我的竞选顾问大卫-plouffe，此次竞选的无名英雄，我认为，是他打造了美利坚合众国历史上最好的-最好的政治运动。
我想对我的竞选经理大卫-普劳夫、首席战略师大卫-阿克塞尔罗德以及我们这个史上最佳的竞选团队说，是你们让这一切成为了现实，对于你们为此所做的牺牲和付出我永远感怀在心。然而，有一点是最重要的，那就是我永远都不会忘记，真正拥有这个胜利的是你们，你们所有人！对于入主白宫，我从来都不是最热候选人。竞选伊始，我们的资金并不充裕，获得的支持也不多。我们的竞选班子并非始于华府，而是一路从艾奥瓦州的得梅因酒店后院、辗转北卡罗莱纳州的康克酒店客房，后来会首在西弗吉尼亚州查尔斯顿酒店的主厅?? 我们的胜利来自于广大工薪阶级，正是他们从仅有的微薄存款里掏出5美元、10美元或者20美元来支持我们的竞选。我们的力量来自于摘下冷漠面罩的年轻一代，来自于夜以继日奋力工作以维持生计的下层百姓，来自于冒着严寒酷暑、户户敲门宣传的团队中流砥柱，更来自于成千上万的大选志愿者。他们用出色的奉献精神和组织能力证明了一个民有、民治、民享的政府在两百年后仍然保持着生命力。这就是你们的胜利！我明白，你们所做的这些，并不仅仅是为了赢得这次竞选，也不单单只是为了我本人。你们之所以这么做，是因为你们懂得前方任务的艰巨。即使我们今晚沉浸于庆祝的喜悦之中，我们也深知明天将会面临的将是我们这辈子最为艰巨的挑战：两场战争、濒临危险的地球和百年一遇的金融危机；即使今晚我们安然站在此处，我们也深知那些深陷伊拉克沙漠和阿富汗山区的英勇美国战士，是为了我们而冒着生命危险。还有那些孩子早已熟睡、自己却辗转反侧的人父人母，他们夜不能寐，想着如何还清房贷、如何支付医药费以及给孩子存下大学经费。我们要掌握新能源，创造就业岗位，建造新校舍，正视存在的威胁，并修复与盟友的关系。
前方的道路很漫长，我们将步履维艰。我们也许无法在一年内，甚至是（我的）一个任期内，达成我们的目标。但是，今晚，我比任何时候都对此更有信心。我承诺，我们所有人将作为一个整体顺利的到达目的地。
我们将不可避免地遭遇许多挫折，也许开头并不会一帆风顺。我们需要弄明白一点，那就是政府无法解决所有的问题，也许有很多人不会同意我上台执政后制定的政策。不过，我将坦诚地接受各方的批评，直面我们的挑战。我将倾听你们的意见，尤其是不同的政见。总之，我邀请各位一同投入到国家的建设中来，用我们勤劳的双手堆砌建设这个国家所需的砖瓦。正是这一方式，使美国在221年的建国道路上不断前行。
我在21个月前的深冬开始为竞选做出的努力并不会在今晚画上句号。我们所追求的并不是这场选举的胜利，这仅仅是为我们提供了一个做出变革的机会。如果回到过去的老路，我们将无法做出任何改变。当然，如果没有你们，一切都无法发生。
所以，让我们一同唤醒自己的爱国心，唤醒为国效力的责任感，我们将一道披星戴月，披荆斩棘向前行进，我们需要照顾的不再只有我们自己，而是每一个人。这次的金融危机让我们认识到一个事实，如果大众受苦受难，华尔街就不可能繁华似锦。我们必须携手与共、共同经历这个国家的荣辱兴衰。
长期以来，两党隔阂以及不成熟的狭隘主义造成了我们现在的失败政策，所以让我们一同抵制住这种倾向，避免回到那条老路。请记住，这个国家有一个民主党人将手扛民主和共和两党旗帜迈向白宫。充满自信，崇尚个人自由，维护国家团结将是我们共同追求的价值观。尽管民主党在今晚取得了压倒性的胜利，但是我们将继续带着谦卑前行，愈合这个国家因分裂受到的创伤。社会的分裂曾经阻碍我们国家前行的脚步。正如林肯总统在1861年的反国家分裂的演说中说到，“我们不是敌人，而是朋友。我们决不能成为敌人。尽管目前的情绪有些紧张，但决不能容许它使我们之间的亲密情感纽带破裂。”我要告诉那些没有将选票投给我的朋友，也许我没有赢得你们的选票，但我将聆听你们的声音，我需要你们的帮助，因为我同样将成为你们的总统。
我要告诉那些在美国大陆以外关注今晚选举的人们，也许你们在一个被世界遗忘的角落通过收音机了解今晚的选举，尽管我们的国情不一样，但是我们的命运是紧紧联系在一起的。一个全新的美国领导层即将呼之欲出。我要告诉那些试图破坏这个世界的人们，我们将打败你们！我要告诉那些追求和平和安全的人们，我们将全力支持你们！我要告诉那些对美国的未来持怀疑态度的人们，今晚，我们再次证明了一个事实，那就是这个国家拥有强大的力量，这并不是因为我们拥有众多的武器和财富。民主、自由、机遇、坚定不屈的希望才是这个国家保持强大的持久力量！
美国强大的真谛在于它能够做出改变，我们的国家可以变得更加完美。我们过去所达到的成就让我们看到了前进的希望。
本届选举创造了多项历史之最，有许多故事将代代相传。但此时此刻，我脑海中想起的是一名来自亚特兰大的选民，这位名叫安妮-尼克松-库珀的女性和千千万万的选民一样，静静地站在投票队伍之中，投出自己的选票，表达自己的声音。不过，与众不同的是，她已经106岁高龄了。在她出生的年代，公路上没有汽车，天空中没有飞机。像她一样的人仅仅因为肤色和性别就被挡在参与投票的大门之外。
今晚，我由此联想到了她一个世纪以来，在美国见证的一切：困苦与希望，奋斗与进步，那是一个让人无能为力的年代，但人们必须不断告诉自己美国的伟大信条：“是的，我们可以！”曾经，女性无法表达自己的意见，她们的希望成为幻影。如今，她终于见证了这一幕，和她一样有着悲惨遭遇的人们成功地投出了自己的选票。是的，我们可以！当整个美国大陆都笼罩在经济大萧条的绝望之中时，她见证了一个国家战胜自身恐惧，重新崛起，罗斯福总统推行的“新政”不仅给美国带来了新的就业机会，更给美国人民带来了共同的价值观。是的，我们可以！
当日本的炸弹投向我们的港口，当世界被暴政所威胁，她见证了一个崛起的民族，民主重获新生。是的，我们可以！
她目睹了发生在蒙哥马利巴士上、伯明翰的高压水龙头下、塞尔玛大桥上的种族歧视??而后，来自亚特兰大民权先驱告诉人们，“我们可以战胜这一切”。是的，我们可以！而后，人类登月，柏林墙倒塌，世界重新集结在科学和想象力的号角下。现在，在这场选举中，她终于用自己的指尖触碰到投票屏幕，郑重地投下选票。饱经106年的沧桑变化，穿越
岁月的风云变迁，她知道美国能做出怎样的改变。是的，我们可以！
美国，我们风雨兼程，一路走来。我们经历了太多，但前方仍有许多梦想等待着我们去实现。今晚，让我们大声地问自己，我们的孩子是否还能看到下一个世纪；我可爱的女儿是否能和安妮-尼克松-库珀一样幸运，享受漫长的人生。他们将看到怎样的变革？我们将取得怎样的进步？
这是我们给出答案的机会。这是属于我们的时刻。这是我们的时代：让人们有事可做；为我们的孩子打开机遇之门；推动世界和平与繁荣；再次锻造美国梦，重申这一不可动摇的事实——虽然我们每个人不尽相同，但我们是一个整体，只要我们呼吸尚存，希望就永不磨灭。我们将用那历经时间考验的不朽信条掷地有声地直面质疑：“是的，我们可以！” 谢谢！上帝保佑你们，保佑美利坚合众国！篇三：奥巴马竞选演讲稿
奥巴马竞选演讲稿 hello, chicago!芝加哥，你好！if there is anyone out there who still doubts that america is a place where all things are possible;who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time;who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.如果有人怀疑美国是个一切皆有可能的地方，怀疑美国奠基者的梦想在我们这个时代依然燃烧，怀疑我们民主的力量，那么今晚这些疑问都有了答案。its the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen;by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different;that their voice could be that difference.学校和教堂门外的长龙便是答案。排队的人数之多，在美国历史上前所未有。为了投票，他们排队长达三、四个小时。许多人一生中第一次投票，因为他们认为这一次大选结果必须不同以往，而他们手中的一票可能决定胜负。its the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, democrat and republican, black, white, latino, asian, native american, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled — americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of red states and blue states;we are, and always will be, the united states of america.无论年龄，无论贫富，无论民主党人或共和党人，无论黑人、白人，无论拉美裔、亚裔、印地安人, 无论同性恋、异性恋，无论残障人、健全人，所有的人，他们向全世界喊出了同一个声音：我们并不隶属 “红州”与 “蓝州”的对立阵营，我们属于美利坚合众国，现在如此，永远如此！its the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.长久以来，很多人说：我们对自己的能量应该冷漠，应该恐惧，应该怀疑。但是，历史之轮如今已在我们手中，我们又一次将历史之轮转往更美好的未来。
漫漫征程，今宵终于来临。特殊的一天，特殊的一次大选，特殊的决定性时刻，美国迎来了变革。i just received a very gracious call from sen.mccain.he fought long and hard in this campaign, and hes fought even longer and harder for the country he loves.he has endured sacrifices for america that most of us cannot begin to imagine, and we are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader.i congratulate him and gov.palin for all they have achieved, and i look forward to working with them to renew this nations promise in the months ahead.刚才，麦凯恩参议员很有风度地给我打了个电话。在这次竞选中，他的努力持久而艰巨。为了这个他挚爱的国家，他的努力更持久、更艰巨。他为美国的奉献超出绝大多数人的想象。他是一位勇敢无私的领袖，有了他的奉献，我们的生活才更美好。我对他和佩林州长的成绩表示祝贺。同时，我也期待着与他们共同努力，再续美国辉煌。i want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaigned from his heart and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of scranton and rode with on that train home to delaware, the vice-president-elect of the united states, joe biden.我要感谢我的竞选搭档——当选副总统乔?拜登。为了与他一起在斯克兰顿市街头长大、一起坐火车返回特拉华州的人们，拜登全心全意地竟选，他代表了这些普通人的声音。
我要感谢下一位第一夫人米歇尔?奥巴马。她是我家的中流砥柱，是我生命中的最爱。没有她在过去16年来的坚定支持，今晚我就不可能站在这里。我要感谢两个女儿萨沙和玛丽娅，我太爱你们两个了，你们将得到一条新的小狗，它将与我们一起入住白宫。我还要感谢已去世的外婆，我知道此刻她正在天上注视着我。她与我的家人一起造就了今天的我。今夜我思念他们，他们对我的恩情比山高、比海深。to my campaign manager, david plouffe;my chief strategist, david axelrod;and the best campaign team ever assembled in the history of politics — you made this happen, and i am forever grateful for what youve sacrificed to get it done.我要感谢我的竞选经理大卫?普鲁夫，感谢首席策划师大卫?阿克塞罗德以及整个竞选团队，他们是政治史上最优秀的竞选团队。你们成就了今夜，我永远感谢你们为今夜所付出的一切。but above all, i will never forget who this victory truly belongs to — it belongs to you.但最重要的是，我将永远不会忘记这场胜利真正属于谁---是你们！i was never the likeliest candidate for this office.we didnt start with much money or many endorsements.our campaign was not hatched in the halls of washington — it began in the backyards of des moines and the living rooms of concord and the front porches of charleston.我从来不是最有希望的候选人。起初，我们的资金不多，赞助人也不多。我们的竞选并非始于华盛顿的华丽大厅，而是起于德莫奈地区某家的后院、康科德地区的某家客厅、查尔斯顿地区的某家前廊。it was built by working men and women who dug into what little savings they had to give $5 and $10 and $20 to this cause.it grew strength from the young people who rejected the myth of their generations apathy;who left their homes and their families for jobs that offered little pay and less sleep;from the not-so-young people who braved the bitter cold and scorching heat to knock on the doors of perfect strangers;from the millions of americans who volunteered and organized, and proved that more than two centuries later, a government of the people, by the people and for the people has not perished from this earth.this is your victory.劳动大众从自己的微薄积蓄中掏出5美元、10美元、20美元，拿来捐助我们的事业。年轻人证明了他们绝非所谓“冷漠的一代”。他们远离家乡和亲人，拿着微薄的报酬，起早摸黑地助选。上了年纪的人也顶着严寒酷暑，敲开陌生人的家门助选。无数美国人自愿组织起来，充当自愿者。正是这些人壮大了我们的声势。他们的行动证明了在两百多年以后，民有、民治、民享的政府并未从地球上消失。这是你们的胜利。i know you didnt do this just to win an election, and i know you didnt do it for me.you did it because you understand the enormity of the task that lies ahead.for even as we celebrate tonight, we know the challenges that tomorrow will bring are the greatest of our lifetime — two wars, a planet in peril, the worst financial crisis in a century.even as we stand here tonight, we know there are brave americans waking up in the deserts of iraq and the mountains of afghanistan to risk their lives for us.there are mothers and fathers who will lie awake after their children fall asleep and wonder how theyll make the mortgage, or pay their doctors bills, or save enough for college.there is new energy to harness and new jobs to be created;new schools to build and threats to meet and alliances to repair.你们这样做，并不只是为了赢得一场大选，更不是为了我个人。你们这样做，是因为你们清楚未来的任务有多么艰巨。今晚我们在欢庆，明天我们就将面对一生之中最为严峻的挑战－－两场战争、一个充满危险的星球，还有百年一遇的金融危机。今晚我们在这里庆祝，但我们知道在伊拉克的沙漠里，在阿富汗的群山中，许许多多勇敢的美国人醒来后就将为了我们而面临生命危险。许许多多的父母会在孩子熟睡后仍难以入眠，他们正在为月供、医药费，孩子今后的大学费用而发愁。我们需要开发新能源，创造就业机会，建造新学校，迎接挑战和威胁，并修复与盟国的关系。the road ahead will be long.our climb will be steep.we may not get there in one year, or even one term, but america — i have never been more hopeful than i am tonight that we will get there.i promise you: we as a people will get there.前方道路还很漫长，任务艰巨。一年之内，甚至一届总统任期之内，我们可能都无法完成这些任务。但我从未像今晚这样对美国满怀希望，我相信我们会实 现这个目标。我向你们承诺－－我们美利坚民族将实现这一目标！there will be setbacks and false starts.there are many who wont agree with every decision or policy i make as president, and we know that government cant solve every problem.but i will always be honest with you about the challenges we face.i will listen to you, especially when we disagree.and, above all, i will ask you join in the work of remaking this nation the only way its been done in america for 221 years — block by block, brick by brick, callused hand by callused hand.我们会遇到挫折，会出师不利，会有许多人不认同我的某一项决定或政策。政府并不能解决所有问题，但我会向你们坦陈我们所面临的挑战。我会聆听你们的意见，尤其是在我们意见相左之时。最重要的是，我会让你们一起重建这个国家。用自己的双手，从一砖一瓦做起。这是美国立国221年以来的前进方式，也是惟一的方式。what began 21 months ago in the depths of winter must not end on this autumn night.this victory alone is not the change we seek — it is only the chance for us to make that change.and that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were.it cannot happen without you.21个月前那个隆冬所开始的一切，绝不应在这一个秋夜结束。我们所寻求的变革并不只是赢得大选，这只是给变革提供了一个机会。假如我们照老路子办事，就没有变革；没有你们，就没有变革。so let us summon a new spirit of patriotism;of service and responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves, but each other.let us remember that if this financial crisis taught us anything, its that we cannot have a thriving wall street while main street suffers.in this country, we rise or fall as one nation — as one people.让我们重新发扬爱国精神，树立崭新的服务意识、责任感，每个人下定决心，一起努力工作，彼此关爱；让我们牢记这场金融危机带来的教训：不能允许商业街挣扎的同时却让华尔街繁荣。在这个国家，我们作为同一个民族，同生死共存亡。let us resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long.let us remember that it was a man from this state who first carried the banner of the republican party to the white house — a party founded on the values of self-reliance, individual liberty and national unity.those are values we all share, and while the democratic party has won a great victory tonight, we do so with a measure of humility and determination to heal the divides that have held back our progress.党派之争、琐碎幼稚，长期以来这些东西荼毒了我们的政坛。让我们牢记，当来自伊利诺伊州的一位先生首次将共和党大旗扛进白宫时，伴随着他的是自强自立、个人自由、国家统一的共和党建党理念。这也是我们所有人都珍视的理念。虽然民主党今晚大胜，但我们态度谦卑，并决心弥合阻碍我们进步的分歧。as lincoln said to a nation far more divided than ours, we are not enemies, but friends...though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection.and, to those americans whose support i have yet to earn, i may not have won your vote, but i hear your voices, i need your help, and i will be your president, too.当年,林肯面对的是一个远比目前更为分裂的国家。他说：“我们不是敌人，而是朋友„„虽然激情可能不再，但是我们的感情纽带不会割断。”对于那些现在并不支持我的美国人，我想说，虽然我没有赢得你们的选票，但我听到了你们的声音，我需要你们的帮助，我也将是你们的总统。
对于关注今夜结果的国际人士，不管他们是在国会、皇宫关注，还是在荒僻地带收听电台，我们的态度是：我们美国人的经历各有不同，但我们的命运相关，新的美国领袖诞生了。对于想毁灭这个世界的人们，我们必将击败你们。对于追求和平和安全的人们，我们将支持你们。对于怀疑美国这盏灯塔是否依然明亮的人们，今天晚上我们已再次证明：美国的真正力量来源并非军事威力或财富规模，而是我们理想的恒久力量：民主、自由、机会和不屈的希望。
for that is the true genius of america — that america can change.our union can be perfected.and what we have already achieved gives us hope for what we can and must achieve tomorrow.美国能够变革，这才是美国真正的精髓。我们的联邦会不断完善。我们已经取得的成就，将为我们将来能够并且必须取得的成就增添希望。this election had many firsts and many stories that will be told for generations.but one thats on my mind tonight is about a woman who cast her ballot in atlanta.shes a lot like the millions of others who stood in line to make their voice heard in this election, except for one thing: ann nixon cooper is 106 years old.这次大选创造了多项“第一”，诞生了很多将流芳后世的故事，但今晚令我最为难忘的却是一位在亚特兰大投票的妇女：安妮?库波尔。她和无数排队等候投票的选民没有什么差别，唯一的不同是她高龄106岁。she was born just a generation past slavery;a time when there were no cars on the road or planes in the sky;when someone like her couldnt vote for two reasons — because she was a woman and because of the color of her skin.在她出生的那个时代，黑奴制刚刚废除。那时路上没有汽车，天上没有飞机。篇四：奥巴马竞选胜利演讲(中英文对照)thank you so much.非常感谢。tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its own destiny, the task of perfecting our union moves forward.今晚，曾经的殖民国在赢得主权200多年后，it moves forward because of you.it moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that has triumphed over war and depression, the spirit that has lifted this country from the depths of despair to the great heights of hope, the belief that while each of us will pursue our own individual dreams, we are an american family and we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people.历史因为你们而走到了这里，因为你们坚信我们的国家能克服战争与萧条，能摆脱绝望深渊走向希望的峰顶，坚信我们每个人都能追求自己的梦，我们生活在共同的美国大家庭，同舟共济。
今晚，在选举中，你们，美国人民，告诉了我们，虽然路漫漫其修远，但我们能挺直腰杆、峰回路转，我们都心中有数，美利坚合众国最美好的未来还未到来。i want to thank every american who participated in this election, whether you voted for the very first time or waited in line for a very long time.by the way, we have to fix that.whether you pounded the pavement or picked up the phone, whether you held an obama sign or a romney sign, you made your voice heard and you made a difference.我要感谢每一位参与选举的国人，无论你是第一时间就投上了票，还是排长队才投上了票。顺便说一声，这个问题我们要解决。无论你是去走去投票站投票，还是电话投票；无论你是给奥巴马投票，还是为罗姆尼投票，你们的声音我们听到了，有着非凡意义。i just spoke with gov.romney and i congratulated him and paul ryan on a hard-fought campaign.we may have battled fiercely, but it’s only because we love this country deeply and we care so strongly about its future.from george to lenore to their son mitt, the romney family has chosen to give back to america through public service and that is the legacy that we honor and applaud tonight.in the weeks ahead, i also look forward to sitting down with gov.romney to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward.我刚刚跟罗姆尼通过话，我祝贺他与保罗莱恩在此次艰难竞选中取得的成绩。我们也许激烈对抗，但这都是因为我们深深地爱着祖国，关心祖国的未来。从乔治到莱诺再到他们的儿子米特，罗姆尼家族通过公共服务回馈社会，这些馈赠值得我们尊敬并为之鼓掌。未来几周，我也期待与罗姆尼座谈，共同探讨如何携手共计推动国家的前进。i want to thank my friend and partner of the last four years, america’s happy warrior, the best vice president anybody could ever hope for, joe biden.我想感谢我四年来的朋友、伙伴，他就是美国的快乐战士、史上最好副总统，乔伊·拜登。
如果没有那个20年前应允嫁给我的女士，我不可能成为今日之我。我要公开表达：米歇尔，我从未像现在这样爱你，看到美国人民爱戴你这位第一夫人，我从未感到如此自豪。萨莎和玛莉亚，我们看着你们长大，变成了两位和妈妈一样健康聪明的美丽少女，我为你们感到骄傲。但我认为现在给你们养一条宠物狗就足够了。to the best campaign team and volunteers in the history of politics.the best.the best ever.some of you were new this time around, and some of you have been at my side since the very beginning.but all of you are family.no matter what you do or where you go from here, you will carry the memory of the history we made together and you will have the lifelong appreciation of a grateful president.thank you for believing all the way, through every hill, through every valley.you lifted me up the whole way and i will always be grateful for everything that you’ve done and all the incredible work that you put in.感谢史上最好的我的竞选团队和志愿者，你们是最好的、最棒的。你们中有的人是第一次加入，有的人一直陪伴我左右。但你们都是我的家人。不管你们做什么、去哪里，你们都会记住我们共同创造的历史，以及我这位感恩你们一生的总统。感谢你们一直以来对我的信任和扶持，感谢你们所做的一切，感谢你们不可思议的付出。i know that political campaigns can sometimes seem small, even silly.and that provides plenty of fodder for the cynics that tell us that politics is nothing more than a contest of egos or the domain of special interests.but if you ever get the chance to talk to folks who turned out at our rallies and crowded along a rope line in a high school gym, or saw folks working late in a campaign office in some tiny county far away from home, you’ll discover something else.我知道政治竞选有时看起来很微不足道，甚至很傻。为市井谈资提供了不少素材，告诉人们政治就是自负之战或利益之争。但是如果你有机会和拥挤在高中体育馆警戒线外参加竞选活动的人们谈话，或者见到偏远县城竞选办公室中工作至深夜的人们，你会有截然不同的体会。
这就是我们一切行动的缘由。这就是政治能做到的事情。这也是竞选之所以重要的原因。事无细微，这些都是大事，是重要的事。在一个3亿人口的国家里，民主的观点嘈杂、混乱而复杂。我们都有自己的观点，我们都有自己深深的信仰。当我们经历艰难时刻，做出国家统一抉择时，自然会激发热情与冲突。that won’t change after tonight, and it shouldn’t.these arguments we have are a mark of our liberty.we can never forget that as we speak people in distant nations are risking their lives right now just for a chance to argue about the issues that matter, the chance to cast their ballots like we did today.今晚过后这些不会改变，也不该改变。这些争议是自由的表现。我们别忘了，在遥远的他国，人民冒险争取权益，仅仅就是为了能和我们一样，能为重要的事情发表言论，能有投票的机会。
but despite all our differences, most of us share certain hopes for america’s future.we want our kids to grow up in a country where they have access to the best schools and the best teachers.a country that lives up to its legacy as the global leader in technology and discovery and innovation, with all the good jobs and new businesses that follow.搁置分歧，求同存异。我们都对美国的未来有着共同的希望。我们希望孩子能上好学校，有好老师，国家能保持技术、发现和创新的全球领先地位，提供好的工作岗位和新的商机。we want our children to live in an america that isn’t burdened by debt, that isn’t weakened by inequality, that isn’t threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet.we want to pass on a country that’s safe and respected and admired around the world, a nation that is defended by the strongest military on earth and the best troops this – this world has ever known.but also a country that moves with confidence beyond this time of war, to shape a peace that is built on the promise of freedom and dignity for every human being.我们相信美国是一个慷慨宽厚、有同情心、有包容心的国家，对移民敞开怀抱，让他们的孩子可以在美国学校学习，对着美国国旗宣誓，让芝加哥南部的孩子能清楚地看到自己的未来，让北卡罗来纳的家具工人之子能自由选择未来是成为医
生、科学家、工程师、企业家还是外交家，甚至是总统——这是我们希冀的未来，是我们共同的设想，是我们需要到达的方向。
现在，有时我们在如何实现这个目标上有激烈的分歧，两个世纪以来，进步会在恰当的时候到来，它不是一帆风顺、直线前行的。虽然我们有着共同的希望和梦想，但是这也不能解决所有问题或减轻我们在推进国家发展道路上建立共识、达成艰难妥协的勤勉工作。然而这一共同纽带是我们工作的开始。our economy is recovering.a decade of war is ending.a long campaign is now over.and whether i earned your vote or not, i have listened to you, i have learned from you, and you’ve made me a better president.and with your stories and your struggles, i return to the white house more determined and more inspired than ever about the work there is to do and the future that lies ahead.我们的经济正在复苏。数十年的战争已接近尾声，漫长的竞选也已经结束。不管我是否赢得了你的投票，我都听到了你们的新声，学到了新知，是你们让我成为了一个更好的总统。带着你们的故事你们的奋斗，我回到白宫，对未来立下决心，深受启发，从未如此深刻过。reaching out and working with leaders of both parties to meet the challenges we can only solve together.reducing our deficit.reforming our tax code.fixing our immigration system.freeing ourselves from foreign oil.we’ve got more work to do.今晚你们的投票是为实际行动，而非政治。你选择我们来关注你们的工作，而非我们的。在接下来的几周和几个月里，我希望能伸出友好之手与两党领袖合作，共同面对双方合作方能解决的挑战。降低赤字，改革赋税，完善移民系统，实现石油独立。我们还有更多的工作要做。
but that doesn’t mean your work is done.the role of citizen in our democracy does not end with your vote.america’s never been about what can be done for us.it’s about what can be done by us together through the hard and frustrating, but necessary work of self-government.that’s the principle we were founded on.篇五：奥巴马所有竞选演讲及相关视频下载

第三篇：奥巴马_my_education_my_future_的英文演讲稿
1.2.3.4.5.6.7.Hello everyoneat 4:30 in the morning.Now I wasn't too happy about getting up that early.A lot of times, I'd fall asleep right there at the kitchen table.But whenever I'd complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and say, “This is no picnic for me either, buster.”
So I know some of you are still adjusting to being back at school.But I'm here today because I have something important to discuss with you.I'm here because I want to talk with you about your education and what's expected of all of you in this new school year.Now I've given a lot of speeches about education.And I've talked a lot about responsibility.I've talked about your teachers' responsibility for inspiring you, and pushing you to learn.I've talked about your parents' responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and get your homework done, and don't spend every waking hour in front of the TV or with that Xbox.I've talked a lot about your government's responsibility for setting high standards, supporting teachers and principals, and turning around schools that aren't working where students aren't getting the opportunities they deserve.But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, and the best schools in the worldmaybe even good enough to write a book or articles in a newspapermaybe even good enough to come up with the next iPhone or a new medicine or vaccineI guarantee that you'll need an education to do it.You want to be a doctor, or a teacher, or a police officer? You want to be a nurse or an architect, a lawyer or a member of our military? You're going to need a good education for every single one of those careers.You can't drop out of school and just drop into a good job.You've got to work for it and train for it and learn for it.And this isn't just important for your own life and your own future.What you make of your education will decide nothing less than the future of this country.What you're learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future.You'll need the knowledge and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our environment.You'll need the insights and critical thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free.You'll need the creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your classes to build new companies that will create new jobs and boost our economy.We need every single one of you to develop your talents, skills and intellect so you can help solve our most difficult problems.If you don't do thatyou're not just quitting on yourself, you're quitting on your country.Now I know it's not always easy to do well in school.I know a lot of you have challenges in your lives right now that can make it hard to focus on your schoolwork.I get it.I know what that's like.My father left my family when I was two years old, and I was raised by a single mother who struggled at times to pay the bills and wasn't always able to give us things the other kids had.There were times when I missed having a father in my life.There were times when I was lonely and felt like I didn't fit in.So I wasn't always as focused as I should have been.I did some things I'm not proud of, and got in more trouble than I should have.And my life could have easily taken a turn for the worse.But I was fortunate.I got a lot of second chances and had the opportunity to go to college, and law school, and follow my dreams.My wife, our First Lady Michelle Obama, has a similar story.Neither of her parents had gone to college, and they didn't have much.But they worked hard, and she worked hard, so that she could go to the best schools in this country.16.17.18.19.20.21.Some of you might not have those advantages.Maybe you don't have adults in your life who give you the support that you need.Maybe someone in your family has lost their job, and there's not enough money to go around.Maybe you live in a neighborhood where you don't feel safe, or have friends who are pressuring you to do things you know aren't right.But at the end of the day, the circumstances of your lifethat's no excuse for neglecting your homework or having a bad attitude.That's no excuse for talking back to your teacher, or cutting class, or dropping out of school.That's no excuse for not trying.Where you are right now doesn't have to determine where you'll end up.No one's written your destiny for you.Here in America, you write your own destiny.You make your own future.That's what young people like you are doing every day, all across America.Young people like Jazmin Perez, from Roma, Texas.Jazmin didn't speak English when she first started school.Hardly anyone in her hometown went to college, and neither of her parents had gone either.But she worked hard, earned good grades, got a scholarship to Brown University, and is now in graduate school, studying public health, on her way to being Dr.Jazmin Perez.I'm thinking about Andoni Schultz, from Los Altos, California, who's fought brain cancer since he was three.He's endured all sorts of treatments and surgeries, one of which affected his memory, so it took him much longerto do his schoolwork.But he never fell behind, and he's headed to college this fall.And then there's Shantell Steve, from my hometown of Chicago, Illinois.Even when bouncing from foster home to foster home in the toughest neighborhoods, she managed to get a job at a local health center;start a program to keep young people out of gangs;and she's on track to graduate high school with honors and go on to college.Jazmin, Andoni and Shantell aren't any different from any of you.They faced challenges in their lives just like you do.But they refused to give up.They chose to take responsibility for their education and set goals for themselves.And I expect all of you to do the same.22.23.24.25.26.27.That's why today, I'm calling on each of you to set your own goals for your educationyou have to let them teach you.You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.If you get in trouble, that doesn't mean you're a troublemaker, it means you need to try harder to behave.If you get a bad grade, that doesn't mean you're stupid, it just means you need to spend more time studying.No one's born being good at things, you become good at things through hard work.You're not a varsity athlete the first time you play a new sport.You don't hit every note the first time you sing a song.You've got to practice.It's the same with your schoolwork.You might have to do a math problem a few times before you get it right, or read something a few times before you understand it, or do a few drafts of a paper before it's good enough to hand in.Don't be afraid to ask questions.Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it.I do that every day.Asking for help isn't a sign of weakness, it's a 28.29.30.31.32.sign of strength.It shows you have the courage to admit when you don't know something, and to learn something new.So find an adult you trustand ask them to help you stay on track to meet your goals.And even when you're struggling, even when you're discouraged, and you feel like other people have given up on youdon't let your family or your country or yourself down.Make us all proud.I know you can do it.Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America.

Good morning,I would like to extend a warm welcome to president Barak Obama, secretary of Education ,Ally Dunken,White House staff,school board members,county board members, super intendent Dr.Patrid Muffi, Senior staff, Principal Rudolph Jackson，Wakefield faculty，and of course, my fellow classmates.I am honored to have been chosen to speak before my classmates as well as students across America today.Over the past three years, I have taken the advantage of every academic, extracurricular and community opportunity that has been presented to me.As I the scholar wrinting glad the better,being assigned to another class was an option.I was determined to excel.Therefore,I managed to succeed with an advancing class And maintaining focus along As I stand before my I want you to know that maybe handed to us,but as students, we must take responsibility for our future.We must take the ownership about what we want to learn.As senior The opportunitities, I would not be standing here before you to introduce the president of the United States as I not here
Just we are fortune to have president Barak Obama To speak to us.We are also fortune to
At this time, it is a great honor and pride to have everyone to stand to welcome the man who proved Yes,we can.Ladies and gentlemen ,please join me to welcome the president of the United States of America, Barak Obama.Hello everyoneand none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities.Unless you show up to those schools;unless you pay attention to those teachers;unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults;and put in the hard work it takes to succeed.And that's what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education.I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself.Every single one of you has something that you're good at.Every single one of you has something to offer.And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is.That's the opportunity an education can provide.Maybe you could be a great writerbut you might not know it until you write that English class paper that assigned to you.Maybe you could be an innovator or an inventorbut you might not know it until you do your project for your science class.Maybe you could be a mayor or a Senator or a Supreme Court Justice, but you might not know that until you join student government or the debate team.And no matter what you want to do with your lifeif you quit on schoolwhat you look like, where you come from, how much money you have, what you've got going on at homehundreds of extra hoursand to do everything you can to meet them.Your goal can be something as simple as doing all your homework, paying attention in class, or spending time each day reading a book.Maybe you'll decide to get involved in an extracurricular activity, or volunteer in your community.Maybe you'll decide to stand up for kids who are being teased or bullied because of who they are or how they look, because you believe, like I do, that all kids deserve a safe environment to study and learn.Maybe you'll decide to take better care of yourself so you can be more ready to learn.And along those lines, I hope you'll all wash your hands a lot, and stay home from school when you don't feel well, so we can keep people from getting the flu this fall and winter.Whatever you resolve to do, I want you to commit to it.I want you to really work at it.I know that sometimes, you get the sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work--that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star, when chances are, you're not going to be any of those things.But the truth is, being successful is hard.You won't love every subject you study.You won't click with every teacher.Not every homework assignment will seem completely relevant to your life right this minute.And you won't necessarily succeed at everything the first time you try.That's OK.Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who've had the most failures.JK Rowling's first Harry Potter book was rejected twelve times before it was finally published.Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career.But he once said, “I have failed over and over and over again in my life.And that is why I succeed.”
These people succeeded because they understand that you can't let your failures define youa parent, grandparent or teacher;a coach or counselordon't ever give up on yourself.Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.The story of America isn't about people who quit when things got tough.It's about people who kept going, who tried harder, who loved their country too much to do anything less than their best.It's the story of students who sat where you sit 250 years ago, and went on to wage a revolution and found this nation.Students who sat where you sit 75 years ago who overcame a Depression and won a world war;who fought for civil rights and put a man on the moon.Students who sat where you sit 20 years ago who founded Google, Twitter and Facebook and changed the way we communicate with each other.So today, I want to ask you, what's your contribution going to be? What problems are you going to solve? What discoveries will you make? What will a president who comes here in twenty or fifty or one hundred years say about what all of you did for this country? Your families, your teachers, and I are doing everything we can to make sure you have the education you need to answer these questions.I'm working hard to fix up your classrooms and get you the books, equipment and computers you need to learn.But you've got to do your part too.So I expect you to get serious this year.I expect you to put your best effort into everything you do.I expect great things from each of you.So don't let us down-don't let your family or your country or yourself down.Make us all proud.I know you can do it.Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America.
第五篇：奥巴马英文演讲稿天下无核
PRESIDENT OBAMA: I am honored to be back here in the Czech Republic with President Medvedev and our Czech hosts to mark this historic completion of the New START treaty.早上好！我很荣幸能在捷克共和国与梅德韦杰夫总统和我们的捷克东道主一起庆祝签订完成新的《削减战略武器条约》这一历史性时刻。
Let me begin by saying how happy I am to be back in the beautiful city of Prague.The Czech Republic, of course, is a close friend and ally of the United States, and I have great admiration and affection for the Czech people.Their bonds with the American people are deep and enduring, and Czechs have made great contributions to the United States over many decades--including in my hometown of Chicago.I want to thank the President and all those involved in helping to host this extraordinary event.首先，我要说，我很高兴回到布拉格这座美丽的城市。捷克共和国是美国的亲密友邦和盟友。我非常敬佩和喜爱捷克人民。他们与美国人民的联系根深蒂固，经久不衰。几十年来，捷克人为美国做出了巨大贡献——包括为我的家乡芝加哥
I want to thank my friend and partner, Dmitry Medvedev.Without his personal efforts and strong leadership, we would not be here today.We’ve met and spoken by phone many times throughout the negotiations of this treaty, and as a consequence we’ve developed a very effective working relationship built on candor, cooperation, and mutual respect.我要感谢我的朋友和合作伙伴，德米特里·梅德韦杰夫没有他个人的努力和有力的领导作用，就不会有今天这个仪式。我们在这项条约的谈判过程中多次会面并进行电话交谈，并由此在坦诚、合作和相互尊重的基础上建立起一种非常有效的工作关系。
One year ago this week, I came here to Prague and gave a speech outlining America’s comprehensive commitment to stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and seeking the ultimate goal of a world without them.I said then--and I will repeat now--that this is a long-term goal, one that may not even be achieved in my lifetime.But I believed then--as I do now--that the pursuit of that goal will move us further beyond the Cold War, strengthen the global non-proliferation regime, and make the United States, and the world, safer and more secure.One of the steps that I called for last year was the realization of this treaty, so it’s very gratifying to be back in Prague today.一年前的这个星期，我来到布拉格并发表了讲话，阐述美国对制止核武器扩散的全面承诺以及寻求无核世界的最终目标。当时我说过——现在再重申一遍——这是一 个长远目标，一个甚至在我有生之年都可能无法实现的目标。但我当时相信 ——现在依然相信——力争实现这个目标将推动我们进一步超越冷战，加强全球防止核扩散体制，并使美国和世界更安全、更有保障。去年我敦促采取的步骤之一是 签订完成这项条约，所以我很高兴今天又回到布拉格
I also came to office committed to “resetting” relations between the United States and Russia, and I know that President Medvedev shared that commitment.As he said at our first meeting in London, our relationship had started to drift, making it difficult to cooperate on issues of common interest to our people.And when the United States and Russia are not able to work together on big issues, it’s not good for either of our nations, nor is it good for the world.我就任以来还致力于“重启”美国和俄罗斯的关系，我知道梅德韦杰夫总统也有相同的承诺。正如他在伦敦我们首次会晤时说过的，我们的关系已开始偏移，因而难 以在关系到我们两国人民的共同利益的问题上进行合作。如果美国和俄罗斯不能在重大问题上携手合作，将无益于我们两个国家乃至整个世界。
Together, we’ve stopped that drift, and proven the benefits of cooperation.Today is an important milestone for nuclear security and non-proliferation, and for U.S.-Russia relations.It fulfills our common objective to negotiate a new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty.It includes significant reductions in the nuclear weapons that we will deploy.It cuts our delivery vehicles by roughly half.It includes a comprehensive verification regime, which allows us to further build trust.It enables both sides the flexibility to protect our security, as well as America’s unwavering commitment to the security of our European allies.And I look forward to working with the United States Senate to achieve ratification for this important treaty later this year.经过共同努力，我们已经制止了偏移，并证明了合作的好处。今天，对核安全和不扩散，以及对美俄关系而言，都是一个重要的里程碑。谈判达成一项新的削减战略 武器条约符合我们的共同目标。它包括大幅度削减我们计划部署的核武器。它使运载工具的数量大约减半。它包括一个全面的核查制度，能促使我们进一步建立信 任。它使双方在保障我们的安全时拥有灵活性，同时确保美国对欧洲盟国安全的坚定承诺。我期待着与美国参议院一道努力，争取在今年稍后的时候批准这项重要条 约 Finally, this day demonstrates the determination of the United States and Russia--the two nations that hold over 90 percent of the world’s nuclear weapons--to pursue responsible global leadership.Together, we are keeping our commitments under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which must be the foundation for global non-proliferation.最后，这一天表明了美国和俄罗斯——全世界90%以上的核武器集中在这两个国家——力争在全球发挥负责任的领导作用。我们共同履行根据《不扩散核武器条 约》（Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty）所承担的义务，因为这项条约必须成为全球不扩散的基础。
While the New START treaty is an important first step forward, it is just one step on a longer journey.As I said last year in Prague, this treaty will set the stage for further cuts.And going forward, we hope to pursue discussions with Russia on reducing both our strategic and tactical weapons, including non-deployed weapons.新的《削减战略武器条约》虽然是向前迈出的重要一步，但只是漫漫征程中的一步。正如我去年在布拉格说过的，这项条约将为进一步削减创造条件。展望未来，我们希望继续与俄罗斯商讨如何削减我们的战略和战术武器，包括没有部署的武器在内。President Medvedev and I have also agreed to expand our discussions on missile defense.This will include regular exchanges of information about our threat assessments, as well as the completion of a joint assessment of emerging ballistic missiles.And as these assessments are completed, I look forward to launching a serious dialogue about Russian-American cooperation on missile defense.梅德韦杰夫总统和我还同意就导弹防御扩大磋商。内容包括定期就我们作出的威胁评估交换信息，以及完成对新出现的弹道导弹的联合评估。随着这些评估的完成，我期待着启动一个关于俄罗斯和美国就导弹防御进行合作的严肃对话
But nuclear weapons are not simply an issue for the United States and Russia--they threaten the common security of all nations.A nuclear weapon in the hands of a terrorist is a danger to people everywhere--from Moscow to New York;from the cities of Europe to South Asia.So next week, 47 nations will come together in Washington to discuss concrete steps that can be taken to secure all vulnerable nuclear materials around the world in four years.然而，核武器不只是美国和俄罗斯的问题——它们威胁到所有国家的共同安全。恐怖分子手中的核武器对从莫斯科到纽约、从欧洲各城市到南亚各地的人民都构成危 险。下个星期，47个国家将在华盛顿集会，共同探讨可以采取哪些具体步骤，确保在四年内使世界各地易于散失的核材料得到妥善保管。
And the spread of nuclear weapons to more states is also an unacceptable risk to global security--raising the specter of arms races from the Middle East to East Asia.Earlier this week, the United States formally changed our policy to make it clear that those [non]-nuclear weapons states that are in compliance with the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and their non-proliferation obligations will not be threatened by America’s nuclear arsenal.This demonstrates, once more, America’s commitment to the NPT as a cornerstone of our security strategy.Those nations that follow the rules will find greater security and opportunity.Those nations that refuse to meet their obligations will be isolated, and denied the opportunity that comes with international recognition.核武器扩散到更多的国家也对全球安全构成了不可接受的威胁——在从中东到东亚各地引起对军备竞赛的担忧。这个星期早些时候，美国正式修改了我们的政策，明 确说明履行《不扩散核武器条约》及其不扩散义务的无核武器国家将不会受到美国核武器的威胁。这再次表明，美国对《不扩散核武器条约》的承诺是我国安全战略 的一个基石。遵守规则的国家将得到更大的安全保障和机会。拒绝履行义务的国家将受到孤立并失去加入国际体系所能带来的机会。
That includes accountability for those that break the rules--otherwise the NPT is just words on a page.That’s why the United States and Russia are part of a coalition of nations insisting that the Islamic Republic of Iran face consequences, because they have continually failed to meet their obligations.We are working together at the United Nations Security Council to pass strong sanctions on Iran.And we will not tolerate actions that flout the NPT, risk an arms race in a vital region, and threaten the credibility of the international community and our collective security.这包括追究违反规则的国家的责任，否则《不扩散核武器条约》不过是一纸空文。正是出T于这个原因，美国和俄罗斯同其他国家采取一致立场，坚决要求伊朗伊斯 兰共和国承担一贯不履行义务的后果。我们在联合国安理会为通过对伊朗实行严厉制裁而共同努力。我们将不会容忍公然无视《不扩散核武器条约》，不惜在一个极 其重要的地区挑起军备竞赛，威胁国际社会的威望和我们的共同安全的行径。While these issues are a top priority, they are only one part of the U.S.-Russia relationship.Today, I again expressed my deepest condolences for the terrible loss of Russian life in recent terrorist attacks, and we will remain steadfast partners in combating violent extremism.We also discussed the potential to expand our cooperation on behalf of economic growth, trade and investment, as well as technological innovation, and I look forward to discussing these issues further when President Medvedev visits the United States later this year, because there is much we can do on behalf of our security and prosperity if we continue to work together.虽然这些议题是首要议程，但它们不过是美俄关系的一个方面。今天，我对最近发生的恐怖主义袭击事件给俄罗斯人民造成的巨大生命损失再次表示最深切的慰唁。我们在抗击暴力恐怖主义的斗争中仍将是坚定的合作伙伴。我们还讨论了为实现经济增长、贸易与投资以及技术创新而扩大两国合作的前景。我期待着在梅德韦杰夫 总统今年晚些时候访问美国时，进一步探讨这些议题。因为我们如果继续共同努力，就能为增进我们的安全与繁荣取得巨大进展。
When one surveys the many challenges that we face around the world, it’s easy to grow complacent, or to abandon the notion that progress can be shared.But I want to repeat what I said last year in Prague: When nations and peoples allow themselves to be defined by their differences, the gulf between them widens.When we fail to pursue peace, then it stays forever beyond our grasp.当我们看到自己在世界各地面临的诸多挑战时，便很容易滋生漠然情绪，或者放弃共同进步的理念。但是我想重复我去年在布拉格说过的话：“如果国家及人民任由种种分歧起决定作用，他们之间的鸿沟便会加深。我们如果不去争取和平，就永远无法实现和平。”
This majestic city of Prague is in many ways a monument to human progress.And this ceremony is a testament to the truth that old adversaries can forge new partnerships.I could not help but be struck the other day by the words of Arkady Brish, who helped build the Soviet Union’s first atom bomb.At the age of 92, having lived to see the horrors of a World War and the divisions of a Cold War, he said, “We hope humanity will reach the moment when there is no need for nuclear weapons, when there is peace and calm in the world.”
布拉格这座辉煌壮丽的城市在许多方面堪称人类进步的丰碑。今天的仪式证明了过去的对手也能缔结新的伙伴关系这个道理。我那天不禁想到曾参与制造苏联第一枚 原子弹的阿尔卡迪布里什(Arkady Brish）说过的话。92岁高龄的布里什亲眼目睹了世界大战的种种恐怖和冷战的分裂局面。他说：“我们希望人类终有一天不再需要核武器，全世界都能享有 和平与安宁。”It’s easy to dismiss those voices.But doing so risks repeating the horrors of the past, while ignoring the history of human progress.The pursuit of peace and calm and cooperation among nations is the work of both leaders and peoples in the 21st century.For we must be as persistent and passionate in our pursuit of progress as any who would stand in our way.对这些声音置若罔闻是很容易的。但是这样做既无视人类进步的历程，又有导致过
