第一篇：希拉里竞选演讲稿I,AM,HORORED,TO,MEET,YOU

篇一：希拉里演讲稿 thank you.thank you.thank you, so much.thank you, all.thank you very, very much.and i want to start today by saying how grateful i am to all of you, to everyone who poured your hearts and your hopes into this campaign, who drove for miles and lined the streets waving homemade signs, who scrimped and saved to raise money, who knocked on doors and made calls, who talked, sometimes argued with your friends and neighbors, who e-mailed and contributed online, to the moms and dads who came to our events, who lifted their little girls and little boys on their shoulders and whispered in their ears, see, you can be anything you want to be.谢谢你们，谢谢你们。

非常感谢你们。

感谢你们所有的人。

非常非常感谢大家。

准确地说，这并不是我计划中的活动，但肯定地说，我喜欢大家的陪伴。

我想以表达对你们所有人的感谢来开始，所有倾注了你们的心血和希望的人、不远万里开车赶来站在街道两旁挥舞自制的标语的人、靠精打细算地节省来筹集资金的人、敲门拜访和致电的人、因谈论我而有时与朋友或邻居争论的人、给我发过电子邮件和上网支持我的人、给我们共同的事业投资巨款的人、来到选举现场把女儿或儿子举在肩头的妈妈爸爸们，并对孩子轻声耳语，“瞧，只要你想，你可以做成任何事”。to the young people like-a 13-year-old anne riddell from mayfield, ohio, who had been saving for two years to go to disney world and decided to use her savings instead to travel to pennsylvania with her mom and volunteer there, as well.to the veterans, to the childhood friends, to new yorkers and arkansans-who traveled across the country, telling anyone who would listen why you supported me.and to all of those women in their 80s and their 90s-born before women could vote, who cast their votes for our campaign.ive told you before about florence stein of south dakota who was 88 years old and insisted that her daughter bring an absentee ballot to her hospice bedside.her daughter and a friend put an american flag behind her bed and helped her fill out the ballot.she passed away soon after and, under state law, her ballot didnt count, but her daughter later told a reporter, my dads an ornery, old cowboy, and he didnt like it when he heard moms vote wouldnt be counted.i dont think he had voted in 20 years, but he voted in place of my mom.年轻人们——比如13岁的来自俄亥俄州梅菲尔德的安妮·里德尔，她为了去迪斯尼乐园攒了两年的钱，可后来还是决定用她的积蓄和妈妈一起来宾夕法尼亚做一名志愿者。

还有老兵们、小朋友们、纽约以及阿肯色州的朋友——你们千里迢迢赶来，告诉所有愿意听的人你们为什么支持我，还有八九十岁的妇女，出生在不能参加选举的年代里的妇女们，她们曾在选举中投票。

我曾经提到过一位88岁来自南达科他州的弗洛伦斯·斯坦因，她在医院的病床上坚持让女儿弄来一份给缺席者的选票，她的女儿和一个朋友在她的床后挂上了一面美国国旗，并帮她填写了选票。

她不久后去世了，可惜的是，按照州法律，她的选票不能生效，她的女儿后来告诉一位记者： “我爸爸是一个粗人、老牛仔，当他听说妈妈的选票无效时很难过，我记忆中他在近20年内从未投过票，可这次他替妈妈投了一票。”

you have inspired and touched me with the stories of the joys and sorrows that make up the fabric of our lives.eighteen million of you, from all walks of life-women and men, young and old, latino and asian, african-american and caucasian rich, poor, and middle-class, gay and straight, you have stood with me.and i will continue to stand strong with you every time, every place, in every way that i can.the dreams we share are worth fighting for.remember, we fought for the single mom with the young daughter, juggling work and school, who told me, im doing it all to better myself for her.we fought for the woman who grabbed my hand and asked me, what are you going to do to make sure i have health care? and began to cry, because even though she works three jobs, she cant afford insurance.所以，对所有给我投票的人们，对所有我发誓尽自己所能来为你们做奉献的人们，对和我一起追求进步未曾屈服的人们，我向你们表示感谢。

你们的故事激励着我，感动着我；故事有喜也有悲，它们构成了我们的生活。

在你们为国家所做的贡献之下，我显得无比卑微。1800万选民，来自不同行业的

女人和男人、年轻人和老年人、拉丁血统和亚裔朋友、黑人朋友和高加索人民、富有的人、贫穷的人、中产阶级、同性恋者或异性恋者，你们曾站在我这一边。

我也将一如既往地坚定地站在你们的一边，无论何时何地，用一切我所能够做的方式。我们共同的梦想是值得我们为之奋斗的！

请记住，我们曾奋斗，为那个有一个小女儿，拼命工作学习的单身母亲，她曾对我说：“我做的一切让自己变得更好，都是为了我的女儿。”

我们曾奋斗，为那个握住我的手问：“你会怎样做来确保我能得到健康治疗？”然后开始哭泣的女人，因为她尽管做三份工作仍无法承担医药费。

we fought for the young man in the marine corps t-shirt who waited months for medical care and said, take care of my buddies over there, and then will you please take care of me? we fought for all those whove lost jobs and health care, who cant afford gas or groceries or college, who have felt invisible to their president these last seven years.i entered this race because i have an old-fashioned conviction that public service is about helping people solve their problems and live their dreams.ive had every opportunity and blessing in my own life, and i want the same for all americans.我们曾奋斗，为了那位身穿海军t恤苦等了数月医院治疗的小伙子，他说：

“照顾照顾那边我的朋友吧！能不能然后也照顾一下我？”

我们曾奋斗，为了所有失去工作、无法支付医药费、加不起油、买不起日常用品、上不起大学却在过去的7年里不曾见到过总统做过些什么的人。

我参加此次选举因为我始终怀着一个不入时的信念，那就是公共服务是用来解决人们的困难，实现人们的梦想的。

我已经尽可能抓住了我生命中的一切机会和赐福，我同时希望所有的美国人都能如此。并且直到那一天，你将永远看见我站在民主的最前线，为了未来而奋斗！

现在，能够继续我们的奋斗、实现我们坚持的目标的方法，就是竭尽我们的能量、激情、力气以及其他所能来帮助选举巴拉克·奥巴马，我们的下一任美国总统。today, as i suspend my campaign, i congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run.i endorse him and throw my full support behind him.and i ask all of you to join me in working as hard for barack obama as you have for me.i have served in the senate with him for four years.i have been in this campaign with him for 16 months.i have stood on the stage and gone toe-to-toe with him in 22 debates.ive had a front-row seat to his candidacy, and i have seen his strength and determination, his grace and his grit.in the state senate, as a united states senator, he has dedicated himself to ensuring the dream is realized.now, when i started this race, i intended to win back the white house and make sure we have a president who puts our country back on the path to peace, prosperity and progress.and thats exactly what were going to, by ensuring that barack obama walks through the doors of the oval office on january 20, 2009.今天，我终止参加竞选活动。

我要对奥巴马所取得的胜利以及他在竞选中取得的不俗成绩表示祝贺。

我将在他身后全力支持他。篇二：希拉里竞选演讲稿 希拉里竞选演讲稿.珍藏(2009-11-04 16:26:27)thank you very much.you know, tonight, we are hearing the voices of people across america, people of all ages, of all colors, all faiths and all walks of life, people on the day shift, the night shift, the late shift, with the crying babies, moms and dads who want a better world for our children, young people who deserve a world of opportunity, all those who arent in the headlines, but have always written americas story.after seven years of a president who listens only to the special interests, youre ready for a president who brings your voice, your values and your dreams to your white house.and tonight, in record numbers, you voted not just to make history, but to remake america.people in american samoa, arkansas, massachusetts, new jersey, oklahoma, tennessee, and the great state of new york and on just--on just one really serious note, we want to keep the people of arkansas and tennessee in our prayers.they suffered horrible tornadoes（龙卷风）tonight.we just talked to some of our folks there and people have died in both states, and our thoughts and prayers go out to them in this moment of their need.you know, tonight, though, is your note.tonight is americas night.and its not--its not over yet, because the polls are still open in california for a few more minutes.i hope that all of you will join our campaign at , because you know--you know that politics isnt a game.its not about whos up or whos down.its also about the people who want to seize americas opportunities.its about the unions and businesses who are training people for green collar jobs.its about--its about our scientists and researchers who want to be able to do stem cell research right here in the united states of america.its about our contractors(承建商)and our construction workers who want to get to work to rebuild america, from the bridges in minnesota(明尼苏达)to the levees(堤防)in new orleans.now, for seven years, we have seen president bushs answer.they dont know whats at stake in this election, but we do.we know what we need is someone ready on day one to solve our problems and seize those opportunities.because when the bright lights are off and the cameras are gone, who can you count on to listen to you, to stand up for you, to delivery solutions for you?

第二篇：who am i演讲稿

Who am I ?

Who are you? Are you a bottle of fresh and sweet juice or a cup of mellow coffee? Are you a delicate and charming rose or a peony with dignity? Let me tell you who I am.When I was a little child, I was a cup of cocktail with vodka as base, which was my innocent character.I was a cup of cocktail with peach liqueur, which was my romantic sincerity.I was a cup of cocktail with intoxicating fragrance, which was my young mind.When I was a teenager, I was a drop of clear water in the ocean, because I struggled to make me unique.I was a bouquet of lavender among all flowers, since I was eager to see the purple color of dreams.All those are mixed in the cup of life and they are altogether contributing to shape who I am today.Now, I am a glass of water mixed the pineapple juice, which is my memory of green youth.I am a glass of water added strawberry juice, which is my dream of youth.The taste is sour and bitter, but appears the smell of dream.I am such an ordinary girl having romantic vision, keeping old things in mind, carrying the little dream.I firmly believe: I am only one, but still I am one.I can’t do everything, but still I can do something towards my dream.That’s me!

像大家知道的那样，今晚，我们听到了美国各地人民的声音，它们是来自不同年龄，不同肤色，不同信仰和各界人士的声音，是那些在白天，夜里工作的人，要去加班的人，有着幼小孩子的家庭的，还有那些希望孩子生活在一个更好的环境里的父母们，以及应该拥有一个更多机遇的社会的年轻人们的声音。也许他们不是每日新闻的头条，但是是他们在书写着美国的历史

过去的7年里，我们的总统只顾着听取那些特殊利益集团的意见，在这之后你们需要一位总统他会把你们的声音，你们的利益，你们的梦想带到到白宫。

今晚，这里不仅仅是记录投票，你们的选择也不仅仅是在创造历史，更是改变（重塑）美国的一晚。在美属萨摩亚，阿肯色，马萨诸塞州，新泽西州，俄克拉荷马州，田纳西州和纽约州的人们都知道一件非常重要的事情，今晚我们同时也要为那些在阿肯色州和田纳西州遭受可怕的飓风的人们祈祷。

I willabout overcrowded or crumbling schools, about the struggle to care for growing children and aging parents, about the continuing challenge of providing equal opportunity for all and about children moving away from their home towns because good jobs are so hard to find in upstate New York.Now I've worked on issues like these for a long time, some of them for 30 years, and I am determined to make a difference for all of you.You see, I believe our nation owes every responsible citizen and every responsible family the tools that they need to make the most of their own lives.That's the basic bargain.I'll do my best to honor in the United States Senate.And to those of you who did not support me, I want you to know that I will work in the Senate for you and for all New Yorkers.And to those of you who worked so hard and never lost faith even in the toughest times, I offer you my undying gratitude.
