2008年奧巴馬競選總統(tǒng)演講稿（中、英文對照）

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.假如還有人不相信美國是一個不存在不可能的地方，還有人懷疑開國之父們的夢想依然在影響著我們這個時代，還有人質(zhì)疑美利堅民主的力量，那么，他們的疑惑在今夜得到了解答。

It's 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.在學(xué)校和教堂外面，人們排起了長長的隊伍，人數(shù)之多在美國歷史上前所未有。為了投上自己的一票，他們可以等待三個小時、四個小時。許多人是一生中第一次參加投票，因為他們堅信這一次必須有所變革，而他們的聲音將舉足輕重。It's the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled — Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of red states and blue states;we are, and always will be, the United States of America.所有的人，無論年輕人還是老年人，無論窮人還是富人，無論民主黨人還是共和黨人，無論黑人還是白人，無論拉美裔還是亞裔, 無論同性戀者還是異性戀者，無論殘疾人還是健康人，他們向全世界發(fā)出了同一個信息：我們從來不屬于共和黨的“紅州”或者民主黨的“藍州”，我們屬于美利堅合眾國，現(xiàn)在如此，永遠如此！

It's 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.在如此漫長的時期內(nèi)，曾經(jīng)有如此眾多的人們對我們說：對于我們的成功，我們應(yīng)該淡漠，應(yīng)該害怕，應(yīng)該不相信。但是，歷史之輪如今已在我們手中，歷史之輪將又一次在我們手中駛向美好未來。

It's been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America.通往今夜的道路很漫長，但今夜終于來臨。特殊的一天，特殊的一次大選，特殊的決定性時刻，美國迎來了變革。

I just received a very gracious call from Sen.McCain.He fought long and hard in this campaign, and he's 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 nation's promise in the months ahead.剛才，我接到了麥凱恩參議員一個非常大度的電話。在這次競選中，他作出了持久而艱巨的努力。為了這個他熱愛的國家，他作出的努力更持久、更艱巨。他為美利 堅做出的犧牲，超出了我們絕大多數(shù)人的想象。他是一位勇敢無私的領(lǐng)袖，正因為有了象他這樣的服務(wù)，我們才生活得更好。我對麥凱恩參議員以及佩林州長的成績 表示祝賀。同時，我也期待著在未來與他們一起為振興國家而共同努力。

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.我要感謝我的競選搭檔，一位全身心投入的男人——當(dāng)選副總統(tǒng)喬?拜登。為了與他一起在斯克蘭頓街道長大的人們，為了曾與他一起坐那趟回特拉華州火車的人們，他全心全意地竟選，他要為這些普通百姓代言。

I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16 years, the rock of our family and the love of my life, our nation's next first lady, Michelle Obama.Sasha and Malia, I love you both so much, and you have earned the new puppy that's coming with us to the White House.And while she's no longer with us, I know my grandmother is watching, along with the family that made me who I am.I miss them tonight, and know that my debt to them is beyond measure.我要感謝下一位第一夫人米歇爾?奧巴馬。她是我家的中流砥柱，是我生命中的最愛。沒有她在過去16年來的堅定支持，我就不可能今晚站在這里。我要感謝薩沙 和瑪麗雅，我太愛你們兩個了，你們將有一條新的小狗，它將與我們一起入住白宮。我還要感謝已去世的外婆，我知道此刻她正在天上看著我。她與其它親人一起造 就了今天的我。今夜我思念他們，我知道他們對我的恩情比山高，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 you've sacrificed to get it done.我要感謝我的競選經(jīng)理大衛(wèi)?普魯夫，感謝首席策劃師大衛(wèi)?阿克塞羅德以及整個競選團隊，他們是政治史上最優(yōu)秀的競選團隊。你們成就了今夜，我永遠感謝你們?yōu)榻褚顾鞒龅臓奚?/p>

But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to — it belongs to you.但最重要的是，我將永遠不會忘記這場勝利真正歸功于誰---是你們！

I was never the likeliest candidate for this office.We didn't 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.我曾經(jīng)是最沒有可能的候選人。起初，我們的資金不多，贊助人也不多。我們的競選并非始于華盛頓的華麗大廳，而是起于德莫奈地區(qū)某家的后院、康科德地區(qū)的某家客廳、查爾斯頓地區(qū)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 generation's 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.這些勞動大眾從自己的微薄積蓄中掏出5美元、10美元、20美元，拿來捐助我們的事業(yè)。現(xiàn)在的年輕人曾被認為是冷漠的一代，但正是這些年輕人壯大了我們的 聲勢。他們離開自己的家庭和親人，拿著很少的報酬，起早摸黑地助選。上了年紀的人也頂著嚴寒酷暑，敲開陌生人的家門助選。無數(shù)的美國人自愿地組織起來，證 明了在兩百多年以后，民有、民治、民享的政府并未從地球上消失。這是你們的勝利。

I know you didn't do this just to win an election, and I know you didn't 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 they'll make the mortgage, or pay their doctor's 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.我知道你們這樣做并不只是為了贏得一場大選，更不是為了我個人。你們這樣做，是因為你們明白未來的任務(wù)有多么艱巨。今晚我們在歡慶，明天我們就將面對一生 之中最為嚴峻的挑戰(zhàn)－－兩場戰(zhàn)爭、一個充滿危險的星球，還有百年一遇的金融危機。今晚我們站在這里慶祝，但我們知道在伊拉克的沙漠里，在阿富汗的群山中，那些勇敢的美國人正在那里。為了我們，他們醒來后面對的是一個有生命危險的世界。這些士兵的父母會在孩子熟睡后仍難以入眠，他們擔(dān)憂的是如何償還月供，如 何支付醫(yī)藥費，如何存夠今后孩子的大學(xué)費用。我們需要開發(fā)新能源，創(chuàng)造新的就業(yè)機會；修建新的學(xué)校；我們還要迎接挑戰(zhàn)和威脅，并修復(fù)與盟國的關(guān)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.前方的道路還很漫長，任務(wù)很艱巨。一年之內(nèi)，甚至一屆任期之內(nèi)，我們可能都無法完成這些任務(wù)。但我從未像今晚這樣對美國滿懷希望，我相信我們會實現(xiàn)這個目標(biāo)。我向你們承諾－－我們美利堅民族將實現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)！

There will be setbacks and false starts.There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as president, and we know that government can't 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 it's been done in America for 221 years — block by block, brick by brick, callused hand by callused hand.我們會遇到挫折，會出師不利，會有許多人不認同我得某一項決定或政策。我們知道政府并不能解決所有問題，我會向你們坦陳我們所面臨的困難。我會聆聽你們的 意見，尤其是在我們意見不同的時候。最重要的是，我會請求你們一起參與重建這個國家。用自己的雙手，從一磚一瓦做起，這是美國立國221年以來的前進方 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個月前那個隆冬所開始的一切絕不應(yīng)在今天這個秋夜結(jié)束。我們所尋求的變革并不只是贏得大選，這只是給變革提供了一個機會。假如我們?nèi)匀话凑宅F(xiàn)有方式行事，就沒有變革。沒有你們，就沒有變革。

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, it's 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.讓我們發(fā)揚新的愛國精神，樹立新的服務(wù)意識和責(zé)任感；讓我們每個人下定決心，更加努力地工作，彼此關(guān)愛；讓我們牢記這場金融危機帶來的教訓(xùn)：不能允許商業(yè)街掙扎的同時卻讓華爾街繁榮。在這個國家，我們屬于同一民族，我們患難與共。

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.黨派政治，瑣碎狹隘，不成熟，長期以來這些東西荼毒了我們的政治。讓我們牢記，當(dāng)來自伊利諾伊州的一名男子首次將共和黨的大旗扛進白宮時，伴隨著他的是自 強自立、個人自由、國家統(tǒng)一的共和黨建黨理念。這也是我們所有人都珍視的理念。雖然民主黨今晚大勝，但我們態(tài)度謙卑，并決心彌合阻礙我們進步的分歧。

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.當(dāng)年,林肯面對的是一個比目前分歧更深更大的國家。他說：“我們不是敵人，而是朋友??雖然激情可能褪去，但是我們的感情紐帶不會割斷?！睂τ谀切┈F(xiàn)在并不支持我的美國人，我想說，雖然我沒有贏得你們的選票，但我聽到了你們的聲音，我需要你們的幫助，我也將是你們的總統(tǒng)。

And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from parliaments and palaces to those who are huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of our world — our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand.To those who would tear this world down: We will defeat you.To those who seek peace and security: We support you.And to all those who have wondered if America's beacon still burns as bright: Tonight, we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals: democracy, liberty, opportunity and unyielding hope.對于關(guān)注今夜結(jié)果的國際人士，不管他們是在國會、皇宮關(guān)注，還是在荒僻地帶收聽電臺，我們的態(tài)度是：我們美國人的經(jīng)歷各有不同，但我們的命運相同，新的美 國領(lǐng)袖誕生了。那些想要毀滅這個世界的人們，我們必將擊敗你們。那些追求和平和安全的人們，我們支持你們。那些懷疑美國這盞燈塔是否依然明亮的人們，今天 晚上我們已再次證明：美國的真正力量來源并非軍事威力或財富規(guī)模，而是我們理想的恒久力量：民主、自由、機會和不屈的希望。

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.這才是美國真正的精髓－－美國能夠變革。我們的聯(lián)邦會不斷完善。我們已經(jīng)取得的成就，將為我們將來能夠并且必須取得的成就增添了希望。

This election had many firsts and many stories that will be told for generations.But one that's on my mind tonight is about a woman who cast her ballot in Atlanta.She's 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.這次大選創(chuàng)造了多項“第一”，誕生了很多將流芳后世的故事，但今晚令我最為難忘的卻是一位在亞特蘭大投票的婦女：安妮?庫波爾。她和無數(shù)排隊等待投票的選民沒有什么差別，除了一點：她高齡106歲。

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 couldn't vote for two reasons — because she was a woman and because of the color of her skin.在她出生的那個時代，黑奴制剛剛結(jié)束。那時路上沒有汽車，天上沒有飛機。當(dāng)時像她這樣的人由于兩個原因不能投票－－一第一因為她是女性，第二個原因是她的膚色。

And tonight, I think about all that she's seen throughout her century in America — the heartache and the hope;the struggle and the progress;the times we were told that we can't and the people who pressed on with that American creed: Yes, we can.今天晚上，我想到了安妮在美國過去一百年間的種種經(jīng)歷：心痛和希望，掙扎和進步，那些我們被告知我們辦不到的年代，以及我們現(xiàn)在這個年代?，F(xiàn)在，我們堅信美國式信念──是的，我們能！

At a time when women's voices were silenced and their hopes dismissed, she lived to see them stand up and speak out and reach for the ballot.Yes, we can.婦女曾經(jīng)沒有發(fā)言權(quán)，她們曾經(jīng)希望破滅。但安妮活到了今天，看到了婦女們站了起來，她們發(fā)表自己的見解，有了選舉權(quán)。是的，我們能。

When there was despair in the Dust Bowl and depression across the land, she saw a nation conquer fear itself with a New Deal, new jobs and a new sense of common purpose.Yes, we can.上世紀三十年代，大蕭條橫掃美國大地，一片絕望。她看到了美國以新政、新的就業(yè)機會以及嶄新的共同追求戰(zhàn)勝了恐慌。是的，我們能。

When the bombs fell on our harbor and tyranny threatened the world, she was there to witness a generation rise to greatness and a democracy was saved.Yes, we can.二戰(zhàn)時期，炸彈降臨我們的海港上空，全世界受到獨裁專制的威脅，她見證了美國一代人的偉大崛起，他們拯救了民主。是的，我們能。

She was there for the buses in Montgomery, the hoses in Birmingham, a bridge in Selma and a preacher from Atlanta who told a people that “We Shall Overcome.” Yes, we can.她看到了蒙哥馬利通了公共汽車、伯明翰接上了水管、塞爾馬建了橋。來自亞特蘭大的一位傳教士告訴人們：我們能！。是的，我們能。

A man touched down on the moon, a wall came down in Berlin, a world was connected by our own science and imagination.And this year, in this election, she touched her finger to a screen and cast her vote, because after 106 years in America, through the best of times and the darkest of hours, she knows how America can change.Yes, we can.人類登上了月球、柏林墻倒下了，科學(xué)和想像把世界連了一塊。今年，在這次選舉中，安妮的手指輕觸電子屏幕，投下自己的一票。她在美國生活了106年，其間有最美好的時光，也有最黑暗的時刻，她知道美國能夠變革。是的，我們能。America, we have come so far.We have seen so much.But there is so much more to do.So tonight, let us ask ourselves: If our children should live to see the next century;if my daughters should be so lucky to live as long as Ann Nixon Cooper, what change will they see? What progress will we have made? 美利堅，我們已經(jīng)一路走來，我們已經(jīng)看到了那么多變化，但我們?nèi)杂泻芏嗍虑橐觥＝褚?，讓我們問自己這樣一個問題：假如我們的孩子能夠活到下一個世紀；假如我們的女兒有幸與安妮一樣長壽，她們將會看到怎樣的改變？我們又取得了怎樣的進步？

This is our chance to answer that call.This is our moment.This is our time — to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids;to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace;to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth that out of many, we are one;that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can't, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people: Yes, we can.現(xiàn)在，我們有了回答這個問題的機會。這是我們的時刻，我們的時代。讓我們的人民重新就業(yè)，為我們的孩子打開機會的大門；恢復(fù)繁榮，促進和平；讓美國夢重放 光芒，再證這一重要的真理，那就是：團結(jié)一致，眾志成城；一息尚存，希望就在；倘若有人嘲諷我們不能，懷疑我們能，那么我們就以這一永恒信條回應(yīng)，因為它 凝聚了整個民族的精神——是的，我們能！

Thank you, God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America.謝謝大家！愿主保佑你們，保佑美利堅合眾國。

第二篇：奧巴馬競選演講稿(中英文對照)

奧巴馬競選演講稿(中英文對照)

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.如果有人懷疑美國是個一切皆有可能的地方，懷疑美國奠基者的夢想在我們這個時代依然燃燒，懷疑我們民主的力量，那么今晚

這些疑問都有了答案，奧巴馬競選演講稿(中英文對照)。

It's 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.學(xué)校和教堂門外的長龍便是答案。排隊的人數(shù)之多，在美國歷史上前所未有。為了投票，他們排隊長達三、四個小時。許多人一

生中第一次投票，因為他們認為這一次大選結(jié)果必須不同以往，而他們手中的一票可能決定勝負。

It's the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian,Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not

disabled — Americans who sent a message to the world

that we have never been a collection of red states and

blue states;we are, and always will be, the United

States of America.無論年齡，無論貧富，無論民主黨人或共和黨人，無論黑人、白人，無論拉美裔、亞裔、印地安人, 無論同性戀、異性戀，無論

殘障人、健全人，所有的人，他們向全世界喊出了同一個聲音：

我們并不隸屬 “紅州”與 “藍州”的對立陣營，我們屬于美利

堅合眾國，現(xiàn)在如此，永遠如此！

It's 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.長久以來，很多人說：我們對自己的能量應(yīng)該冷漠，應(yīng)該恐懼，應(yīng)該懷疑。但是，歷史之輪如今已在我們手中，我們又一次將歷

史之輪轉(zhuǎn)往更美好的未來。

It's been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this

defining moment, change has come to America.漫漫征程，今宵終于來臨。特殊的一天，特殊的一次大選，特殊的決定性時刻，美國迎來了變革。

I just received a very gracious call from Sen.McCain.He fought long and hard in this campaign, and he's

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 nation's promise in the months ahead.剛才，麥凱恩參議員很有風(fēng)度地給我打了個電話。在這次競選中，他的努力持久而艱巨。為了這個他摯愛的國家，他的努力更持

久、更艱巨。他為美國的奉獻超出絕大多數(shù)人的想象。他是一位

勇敢無私的領(lǐng)袖，有了他的奉獻，我們的生活才更美好。我對他

和佩林州長的成績表示祝賀。同時，我也期待著與他們共同努力，再續(xù)美國輝煌。

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.我要感謝我的競選搭檔——當(dāng)選副總統(tǒng)喬·拜登。為了與他一起在斯克蘭頓市街頭長大、一起坐火車返回特拉華州的人們，拜登

全心全意地竟選，他代表了這些普通人的聲音。

I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16

years, the rock of our family and the love of my life,our nation's next first lady, Michelle Obama.Sasha and

Malia, I love you both so much, and you have earned the

new puppy that's coming with us to the White House.And

while she's no longer with us, I know my grandmother is

watching, along with the family that made me who I am.I

miss them tonight, and know that my debt to them is

beyond measure.我要感謝下一位第一夫人米歇爾·奧巴馬。她是我家的中流砥柱，是我生命中的最愛。沒有她在過去16年來的堅定支持，今晚我就不可能站在這里。我要感謝兩個女兒薩沙和瑪麗婭，我太愛你

們兩個了，你們將得到一條新的小狗，它將與我們一起入住白宮

。我還要感謝已去世的外婆，我知道此刻她正在天上注視著我。

她與我的家人一起造就了今天的我。今夜我思念他們，他們對我的恩情比山高、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 you've

sacrificed to get it done.我要感謝我的競選經(jīng)理大衛(wèi)·普魯夫，感謝首席策劃師大衛(wèi)·阿克塞羅德以及整個競選團隊，他們是政治史上最優(yōu)秀的競選團隊。

你們成就了今夜，我永遠感謝你們?yōu)榻褚顾冻龅囊磺小?/p>

But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to — it belongs to you.但最重要的是，我將永遠不會忘記這場勝利真正屬于誰---是你們！

I was never the likeliest candidate for this office.We didn't 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.我從來不是最有希望的候選人。起初，我們的資金不多，贊助人也不多。我們的競選并非始于華盛頓的華麗大廳，而是起于德莫

奈地區(qū)某家的后院、康科德地區(qū)的某家客廳、查爾斯頓地區(qū)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 generation's 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.勞動大眾從自己的微薄積蓄中掏出5美元、10美元、20美元，拿來捐助我們的事業(yè)。年輕人證明了他們絕非所謂“冷漠的一代”

。他們遠離家鄉(xiāng)和親人，拿著微薄的報酬，起早摸黑地助選。上

了年紀的人也頂著嚴寒酷暑，敲開陌生人的家門助選。無數(shù)美國

人自愿組織起來，充當(dāng)自愿者。正是這些人壯大了我們的聲勢。

他們的行動證明了在兩百多年以后，民有、民治、民享的政府并

未從地球上消失。這是你們的勝利。

I know you didn't do this just to win an election, and I know you didn't 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 they'll make the mortgage, or pay their

doctor's 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.你們這樣做，并不只是為了贏得一場大選，更不是為了我個人。

你們這樣做，是因為你們清楚未來的任務(wù)有多么艱巨。今晚我們

在歡慶，明天我們就將面對一生之中最為嚴峻的挑戰(zhàn)－－兩場戰(zhàn)

爭、一個充滿危險的星球，還有百年一遇的金融危機。今晚我們

在這里慶祝，但我們知道在伊拉克的沙漠里，在阿富汗的群山中，許許多多勇敢的美國人醒來后就將為了我們而面臨生命危險。

許許多多的父母會在孩子熟睡后仍難以入眠，他們正在為月供、醫(yī)藥費，孩子今后的大學(xué)費用而發(fā)愁。我們需要開發(fā)新能源，創(chuàng)

造就業(yè)機會，建造新學(xué)校，迎接挑戰(zhàn)和威脅，并修復(fù)與盟國的關(guān)

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.前方道路還很漫長，任務(wù)艱巨。一年之內(nèi)，甚至一屆總統(tǒng)任期之內(nèi)，我們可能都無法完成這些任務(wù)。但我從未像今晚這樣對美國

滿懷希望，我相信我們會實現(xiàn)這個目標(biāo)。我向你們承諾－－我們

美利堅民族將實現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)！

There will be setbacks and false starts.There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as

president, and we know that government can't 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 it's been

done in America for 221 years — block by block, brick

by brick, callused hand by callused hand.我們會遇到挫折，會出師不利，會有許多人不認同我的某一項決定或政策，演講稿《奧巴馬競選演講稿(中英文對照)》。政府并不能解決所有問題，但我會向你們坦陳我們所

面臨的挑戰(zhàn)。我會聆聽你們的意見，尤其是在我們意見相左之時

。最重要的是，我會讓你們一起重建這個國家。用自己的雙手，從一磚一瓦做起。這是美國立國221年以來的前進方式，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個月前那個隆冬所開始的一切，絕不應(yīng)在這一個秋夜結(jié)束。我們所尋求的變革并不只是贏得大選，這只是給變革提供了一個機

會。假如我們照老路子辦事，就沒有變革；沒有你們，就沒有變

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, it's 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.讓我們重新發(fā)揚愛國精神，樹立嶄新的服務(wù)意識、責(zé)任感，每個人下定決心，一起努力工作，彼此關(guān)愛；讓我們牢記這場金融危

機帶來的教訓(xùn)：不能允許商業(yè)街掙扎的同時卻讓華爾街繁榮。在這個國家，我們作為同一個民族，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.黨派之爭、瑣碎幼稚，長期以來這些東西荼毒了我們的政壇。讓我們牢記，當(dāng)來自伊利諾伊州的一位先生首次將共和黨大旗扛進

白宮時，伴隨著他的是自強自立、個人自由、國家統(tǒng)一的共和黨

建黨理念。這也是我們所有人都珍視的理念。雖然民主黨今晚大

勝，但我們態(tài)度謙卑，并決心彌合阻礙我們進步的分歧。

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.當(dāng)年,林肯面對的是一個遠比目前更為分裂的國家。他說：“我們不是敵人，而是朋友……雖然激情可能不再，但是我們的感情

紐帶不會割斷?！睂τ谀切┈F(xiàn)在并不支持我的美國人，我想說，雖然我沒有贏得你們的選票，但我聽到了你們的聲音，我需要你

們的幫助，我也將是你們的總統(tǒng)。

And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from parliaments and palaces to those who are

huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of our

world — our stories are singular, but our destiny is

shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at

hand.To those who would tear this world down: We will

defeat you.To those who seek peace and security: We

support you.And to all those who have wondered if

America's beacon still burns as bright: Tonight, we

proved once more that the true strength of our nation

comes not from the might of our arms or the scale of our

wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals:

democracy, liberty, opportunity and unyielding hope.對于關(guān)注今夜結(jié)果的國際人士，不管他們是在國會、皇宮關(guān)注，還是在荒僻地帶收聽電臺，我們的態(tài)度是：我們美國人的經(jīng)歷各

有不同，但我們的命運相關(guān)，新的美國領(lǐng)袖誕生了。對于想毀滅

這個世界的人們，我們必將擊敗你們。對于追求和平和安全的人

們，我們將支持你們。對于懷疑美國這盞燈塔是否依然明亮的人

們，今天晚上我們已再次證明：美國的真正力量來源并非軍事威

力或財富規(guī)模，而是我們理想的恒久力量：民主、自由、機會和

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.美國能夠變革，這才是美國真正的精髓。我們的聯(lián)邦會不斷完善。我們已經(jīng)取得的成就，將為我們將來能夠并且必須取得的成就

增添希望。

This election had many firsts and many stories that will be told for generations.But one that's on my mind

tonight is about a woman who cast her ballot in Atlanta.She's 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.這次大選創(chuàng)造了多項“第一”，誕生了很多將流芳后世的故事，但今晚令我最為難忘的卻是一位在亞特蘭大投票的婦女：安妮·

庫波爾。她和無數(shù)排隊等候投票的選民沒有什么差別，唯一的不

同是她高齡106歲。

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 couldn't vote for two reasons —

because she was a woman and because of the color of her

skin.在她出生的那個時代，黑奴制剛剛廢除。那時路上沒有汽車，天上沒有飛機。當(dāng)時像她這樣的人由于兩個原因不能投票－－一第一因為她是女性，第二個原因是她的膚色。

And tonight, I think about all that she's seen throughout her century in America — the heartache and

the hope;the struggle and the progress;the times we

were told that we can't and the people who pressed on

with that American creed: Yes, we can.今天晚上，我想到了安妮在美國過去一百年間的種種經(jīng)歷：心痛和希望，掙扎和進步，那些我們被告知我們辦不到的年代，以及

我們現(xiàn)在這個年代。現(xiàn)在，我們堅信美國式信念──是的，我們

能！At a time when women's voices were silenced and their hopes dismissed, she lived to see them stand up and

speak out and reach for the ballot.Yes, we can.在那個年代，婦女的聲音被壓制，她們的希望被剝奪。但安妮活到了今天，看到婦女們站起來了，可以大聲發(fā)表意見了，有選舉

權(quán)了。是的，我們能。

When there was despair in the Dust Bowl and depression across the land, she saw a nation conquer fear itself

with a New Deal, new jobs and a new sense of common

purpose.Yes, we can.安妮經(jīng)歷了上世紀三十年代的大蕭條。農(nóng)田荒蕪，絕望籠罩美國大地。她看到了美國以新政、新的就業(yè)機會以及嶄新的共同追求

戰(zhàn)勝了恐慌。是的，我們能。

When the bombs fell on our harbor and tyranny threatened the world, she was there to witness a generation rise to

greatness and a democracy was saved.Yes, we can.二戰(zhàn)時期，炸彈襲擊我們的海港，全世界受到獨裁專制威脅，安妮見證了一代美國人的英雄本色，他們捍衛(wèi)了民主。是的，我們

能。She was there for the buses in Montgomery, the hoses in Birmingham, a bridge in Selma and a preacher from

Atlanta who told a people that “We Shall Overcome.” Yes,we can.安妮經(jīng)歷了蒙哥馬利公交車事件、伯明翰黑人暴動事件、塞爾馬血醒周末事件。來自亞特蘭大的一位牧師告訴人們：我們終將勝

利。是的，我們能。

A man touched down on the moon, a wall came down in Berlin, a world was connected by our own science and

imagination.And this year, in this election, she

touched her finger to a screen and cast her vote,because after 106 years in America, through the best of

times and the darkest of hours, she knows how America

can change.Yes, we can.人類登上了月球、柏林墻倒下了，科學(xué)和想像把世界連成了一塊。今年，在這次選舉中，安妮的手指輕觸電子屏幕，投下自己的一票。她在美國生活了106年，其間有最美好的時光，也有最黑

暗的時刻，她知道美國能夠變革。是的，我們能。

America, we have come so far.We have seen so much.But there is so much more to do.So tonight, let us ask

ourselves: If our children should live to see the next

century;if my daughters should be so lucky to live as

long as Ann Nixon Cooper, what change will they see?

What progress will we have made?

美利堅，我們已經(jīng)一路走來，我們已經(jīng)看到了那么多變化，但我們?nèi)杂泻芏嗍虑橐?。今夜，讓我們問自己這樣一個問題：假如

我們的孩子能夠活到下一個世紀，假如我的女兒們有幸與安妮一

樣長壽，她們將會看到怎樣的改變？我們又取得了怎樣的進步？

This is our chance to answer that call.This is our moment.This is our time — to put our people back to

work and open doors of opportunity for our kids;to

restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace;to

reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental

truth that out of many, we are one;that while we

breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism,and doubt, and those who tell us that we can't, we will

respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit

of a people: Yes, we can.現(xiàn)在，我們獲得了回答這個問題的機會。這是我們的時刻，我們的時代。讓我們的人民重新就業(yè)，為我們的孩子打開機會的大門

；恢復(fù)繁榮，促進和平；讓美國夢重放光芒，再證這一根本性真

理，那就是：團結(jié)一致，眾志成城；一息尚存，希望就在；倘若

有人嘲諷和懷疑，說我們不能，我們就以這一永恒信條回應(yīng)，因

為它凝聚了整個民族的精神——是的，我們能！

Thank you, God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America.謝謝大家！愿上帝保佑你們，保佑美利堅合眾國。

第三篇：奧巴馬競選總統(tǒng)演講（最終版）

奧巴馬競選總統(tǒng)演講

篇一：美國第一夫人米歇爾為奧巴馬競選總統(tǒng)的演講

Transcript: Michelle Obama's Convention Speech

September 4,2012

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 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? PBS NewsHour/YouTube

First lady Michelle Obama addresses the DNC after being introduced by military mom Elaine Brye, from PBS NewsHour.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 a 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 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 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 stand at 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 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.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 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.篇二：奧巴馬：總統(tǒng)競選連任勝選演講

Presidential Election Victory Speech

（真實性鑒定；以下文本直接轉(zhuǎn)錄自音頻資料）

Thank you.Thank you so much.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.謝謝你們，非常感謝你們。

今晚，在一個前殖民地贏得了決定自身命運權(quán)利兩百多年后的今晚，完美我們聯(lián)邦的任務(wù)正在推向前進。

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.它的推進是因為你們。它的推進是因為你們重申了贏得戰(zhàn)爭擊敗衰退的精神，重申了將這個國家從絕望的低谷提升至希望的巔峰的精神，重申了這樣的信念——當(dāng)我們每個人追求我們各自的夢想時，我們都從屬于一個美國大家庭；作為一個國家一個民族，我們共進退同禍福。Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America, the best is yet to come.今晚，在這次選舉中，你們——美國人民提醒我們：盡管道路艱難征途漫長，我們已振作精神殺出重圍；我們深知，對美利堅合眾國而言，最好的時刻尚未到來。

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.我要感謝每一位參與這次選舉的美國人。無論你在第一時間投票，或是在隊伍中等待了很久——順便說一句，我們必須改進投票程序；無論你是在人行道上蹣跚前移，還是拿起電話投票；無論你舉的牌子上，寫的是奧巴馬還是羅姆尼，你的聲音都會被聽到，你也一樣舉足輕重。

I just spoke with Governor 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 a legacy that we honor and applaud tonight.In the weeks ahead, I also look forward to sitting down with Governor Romney to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward.我剛剛與羅姆尼州長通過話，我祝賀他和保羅·瑞安在這場艱苦的選戰(zhàn)中的出色表現(xiàn)。也許我們有過激烈的較量，但那只因為我們都深深地愛著這個國家，我們都如此強烈地關(guān)注著它的未來。從喬治到埃莉諾（羅姆尼的父母，曾分別任州長與參議員——譯者注）到他們的兒子米特，羅姆尼家族選擇了投身公共服務(wù)來回報美國，這是今晚值得我們尊敬和贊美的一份遺產(chǎn)。在今后的日子里，我也期待與羅姆尼州長坐下來，討論在哪些方面我們能夠共同合作，把這個國家推向前進。

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.我想感謝我過去四年里的朋友和伙伴，美國的快樂斗士——超出任何人想象的最好的副總統(tǒng)——喬·拜登。

And I wouldn’t be the man I am today without the woman who agreed to marry me 20 years ago.Let me say this publicly--Michelle, I have never loved you more.I have never been prouder to watch the rest of America fall in love with you, too, as our nation’s First Lady.Sasha and Malia, before our very eyes, you're growing up to become two strong, smart, beautiful young women, just like your mom.And I’m so proud of you guys.But I will say that for now, one dog is probably enough.如果沒有20年前同意嫁給我的那位女人，我將不會是今天站在這里這個男人。讓我告訴所有人吧：米歇爾，我從未像今天這樣愛你；我也從未像今天這樣為你驕傲——看到你作為我

們國家的第一夫人，贏得了其他美國人的愛。薩沙和瑪麗亞，在我們的眼皮底下，你們正成長為堅強、聰明、漂亮的年輕女人，像你們的媽媽那樣。我是如此為你們這兩個小家伙驕傲，但是現(xiàn)在我要說，一條狗大概就足夠了。（在奧巴馬的第一次勝選演說中，他當(dāng)眾宣布送給兩個女兒一條狗作為勝選禮物——譯者注）

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.對政治史上最好的競選團隊與志愿者們——最好，永遠的最好。你們有些人是這次選舉聚集的新人，有些則從最初的時刻就站在我的身邊；然而你們?nèi)加H如家人。不管你們從事何種職業(yè)，將從這里走向何方，你們都將擁有一個心懷感激的總統(tǒng)的銘記終身的賞識。越過每一道山峰，穿過每一個低谷，感謝你們始終不逾的信任。對你們所做的每一件事，你們奉獻的所有難以置信的工作，我將永懷感激之情。

I know that political campaigns can sometimes seem small, even silly.And that provides plenty of fodder for the cynics who 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 at a campaign office in some tiny county far away from home, you'll discover something else.我明白，政治選戰(zhàn)有時可能顯得瑣屑甚至愚蠢。它給那些憤世嫉俗者提供了大量的炮彈，他們告訴我們，除了給那些自負的家伙競爭的機會和給那些特殊利益者較量的場所，政治毫無價值。然而，如果你有機會和那些在我們的大會上聚集或擠在高中體育館的隊伍中的人們談?wù)劊蚰慷萌藗冊诟傔x辦公室工作到很晚，你可能會發(fā)現(xiàn)一些別的東西。

You’ll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who’s worked his way through college, and wants to make sure every child has that same opportunity.You’ll hear the pride in the voice of a volunteer who’s going door to door because her brother was finally hired when the local auto plant added another shift.You’ll hear the deep patriotism in the voice of a military spouse who’s working the phones late at night to make sure that no one who fights for

this country ever has to fight for a job, or a roof over their head when they come home.That’s why we do this.That’s what politics can be.That’s why elections matter.It's not small;it's big.It's important.你會在一個年輕的選區(qū)組織者的話語中聽出決心，他通過上大學(xué)闖出了自己的人生之路，他要確保每個孩子都有同樣的機會。你會在一個志愿者的話語中聽出驕傲，他挨家挨戶動員人們?nèi)ネ镀币驗楫?dāng)本地的汽車工廠增加工作班次他的兄弟最終被錄用。你會在一個軍人配偶的話語中聽出深深的愛國精神，她為助選撥打電話直到深夜，以確保沒有任何為這個國家而戰(zhàn)的人，退伍回家后又得為工作而戰(zhàn)，為棲身之所而戰(zhàn)。

Democracy in a nation of 300 million can be noisy and messy and complicated.We have our own opinions.Each of us has deeply held beliefs.And when we go through tough times, when we make big decisions as a country, it necessarily stirs passions, stirs up controversy.That won’t change after tonight--and it shouldn’t.These arguments we have are a mark of our liberty, and 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.在一個有著三億人口的國家里，民，主，政，治可能顯得喧囂、混亂、復(fù)雜。我們有自己的觀點，我們每個人都有自己深摯的信仰。每當(dāng)我們面對艱難時世，每當(dāng)我們國家要作出重大的決定，它都必然會激起熱情，引發(fā)爭論。這些將不會在今晚之后改變，也不應(yīng)被改變。我們擁有的這些爭論是我們自由的一個標(biāo)志。我們決不能忘記，就在我們說話的此刻，那些遙，遠，國度，的人們，正冒，著，生，命的危險，僅僅為爭得一個討論重要問題的機會，一個像我們今天一樣投，票，的機會。

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.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.不管我們有怎樣的分歧，多數(shù)人對美國的未來還是享有某些共同的期待。我們希望我們的孩子們生長在一個這樣國家：在那里，他們能上最好的學(xué)校有最好的老師；在那里，他們實踐先輩的遺訓(xùn)，成為科技、發(fā)明、創(chuàng)新的世界領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者，擁有隨之而來的最好的工作機會與新興 的產(chǎn)業(yè)。我們希望我們的孩子生活在這樣一個美國：它不再背負債務(wù)，不再為不平等所削弱，不再為這個正在變暖的星球的破壞性力量所威脅

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 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.我們希望交給后人這樣一個美國，它安全并享有遍及全球的尊重與羨慕；這樣一個美國，它由地球上最強大的軍事力量，這個世界所知道的最好的軍隊所捍衛(wèi)；它同時又是這樣一個國家，它自信地超越這個時代的戰(zhàn)爭，去塑造一個奠基于給每一個人以自由與尊嚴的承諾之上的和平。

We believe in a generous America;in a compassionate America;in a tolerant America, open to the dreams of an immigrant’s daughter who studies in our schools and pledges to our flag.To the young boy on the South Side of Chicago who sees a life beyond the nearest street corner.To the furniture worker’s child in North Carolina who wants to become a doctor or a scientist, an

engineer or entrepreneur, a diplomat or even a President.That’s the future we hope for.That’s the vision we share.That’s where we need to go.Forward.That's where we need to go.我們信仰一個慷慨的美國，一個富于同情心的美國，一個海納百川的美國。它對一個移民的女兒展開懷抱，她在我們的學(xué)校念書對我們國旗宣誓；它對芝加哥南部的男孩展開懷抱，他眼中的生活超越了他身邊的街角；它對北卡羅來納州的木匠的孩子展開懷抱，他想成為醫(yī)生或科學(xué)家，成為工程師或企業(yè)家，成為外交官甚至成為總統(tǒng)。那就是我們希望的未來，那就是我們共同的愿景，那就是我們希望的樂土。“逝將去汝，適彼樂土。樂土樂土，爰得我所?！?/p>

Now, we will disagree, sometimes fiercely, about how to get there.As it has for more than two centuries, progress will come in fits and starts.It's not always a straight line.It's not always a

smooth path.By itself, the recognition that we have common hopes and dreams won’t end all the gridlock, or solve all our problems, or substitute for the painstaking work of building consensus, and making the difficult compromises needed to move this country forward.But that common bond is where we must begin.眼下，對如何達成目標(biāo)，我們意見分歧，有時這種分歧還十分嚴重。正如兩個多世紀以來，發(fā)展總是潮起潮落一樣，它不會是一條直線，不總是一馬平川。就其本身而言，意識到我們

篇三：奧巴馬演講稿

貝拉克·侯賽因·奧巴馬二世(Barack Hussein Obama II)，1961年8月4日生于美國夏威夷州火奴魯魯（檀香山），父親是一位祖籍肯尼亞的黑人穆斯林，母親是堪薩斯州的美國人。父親貝拉克·奧巴馬是一名在夏威夷念書的肯尼亞留學(xué)生。母親安·鄧納姆是一個白人，原本來自堪薩斯州。

1983年畢業(yè)于哥倫比亞大學(xué)，1985年到芝加哥工作。1991年畢業(yè)于哈佛大學(xué)的法學(xué)院，是第一個擔(dān)任哈佛法學(xué)評論主編的非洲裔美國人。

1992年和米歇爾·拉沃恩·奧巴馬結(jié)婚。1996年，奧巴馬從芝加哥當(dāng)選為伊利諾伊州州參議員并在之后的3年中連任；2000年，在競選美國眾議院議員席位失敗后，奧巴馬將主要精力投入到伊利諾伊州的參議工作中。

2007年2月10日，奧巴馬在伊利諾伊州斯普林菲爾德市正式宣布參加2008年美國總統(tǒng)大選，并提出了重點在“完結(jié)伊拉克戰(zhàn)爭以及實施全民醫(yī)療保險制度”的競選綱領(lǐng)。2008年6月3日，奧巴馬被定為民主黨總統(tǒng)候選人；同年8月23日，在民主黨全國代表大會上奧巴馬被正式提名，從而成為了美國歷史上首個非洲裔總統(tǒng)大選候選人。

2008年1月1日，奧巴馬開通了自己的微博網(wǎng)，通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)渠道對競選進行宣傳，后來被人們稱為Web2.0總統(tǒng)，可見奧巴馬對網(wǎng)絡(luò)的重視。2008年11月5日，奧巴馬擊敗共和黨候選人約翰·麥凱恩，正式當(dāng)選為美國第四十四任總統(tǒng)（屆數(shù)：第56屆，任數(shù)：第44任，位數(shù)：第43位，政黨：民主黨）。于2009年1月20日，在美國首都華盛頓特區(qū)參加就職典禮，發(fā)表就職演說，并參加了游行。任期4年。根據(jù)美國法律，他還可以在2012年，再次競選總統(tǒng)。

2009年10月9日，據(jù)英國廣播公司報道，諾貝爾獎評審會稱，美國總統(tǒng)奧巴馬因“為增強國際外交及各國人民間的合作做出非同尋常的努力”而被授予2009諾貝爾和平獎。民調(diào)顯示，2009年奧巴馬的支持率最高達到59%，而后開始滑落，2011年一月份到達48%的水平，而由于經(jīng)濟手段改革與醫(yī)療體制改革，奧巴馬的支持率持續(xù)走低，到三月份末降到最低的38%，但后又因擊斃拉登上升，近期又由于前述原因輕微下降，他的平均支持率平均在4、5成之間，屬于中等水平。

2011年11月，福布斯2011權(quán)力人物榜：奧巴馬排名第一。盡管在處理高失業(yè)率和經(jīng)濟衰退問題上的不足導(dǎo)致奧巴馬在國內(nèi)支持率下降，但他在世界舞臺上的表現(xiàn)完全不同。隨著“基地”組織領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人本·拉登和利比亞前領(lǐng)導(dǎo)總統(tǒng)競選人卡扎菲相繼被擊斃，奧巴馬的影響力迅速上升。

2012年10月17日，經(jīng)過90分鐘的舌戰(zhàn)，美國總統(tǒng)大選結(jié)束了第二場總統(tǒng)辯論。首戰(zhàn)支持率大跌的奧巴馬，此次成功逆轉(zhuǎn)，根據(jù)CNN實時投票結(jié)果，奧巴馬的支持率飆升到46%。

[3]

北京時間2012年11月7日，當(dāng)?shù)貢r間6日晚，美國總統(tǒng)奧巴馬獲得275張選票，連任總統(tǒng)已成定局。他在推特上發(fā)文感謝選民。

第四篇：2008奧巴馬競選演講稿英文下載

美國首任黑人總統(tǒng)奧巴馬競選演講稿（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.現(xiàn)在是美國歷史的關(guān)鍵時刻。我們面臨著大蕭條以來最為嚴重的一場經(jīng)濟危機：今年以來已經(jīng)有76萬人失業(yè)；企業(yè)和家庭無法獲得信貸；房價不斷下滑，養(yǎng)老金日益縮水；工資降到了十年來的最低水平，同時醫(yī)療和教育成本卻漲到了有史以來的最高點。在眼下這樣的危急時刻，我們承受不起又一個四年的支出增長、千瘡百孔的減稅措施、或是監(jiān)管全無──即使是美國聯(lián)邦儲備委員會（fed）前主席格林斯潘（alan greenspan）現(xiàn)在也承認那是個錯誤。美國需要一個新的方向。這也正是我競選美國總統(tǒng)的原因所在。

明天，也就是周二，你們將有能力賦予這個國家我們所需要的變革。corbis我的競選對手麥凱恩參議員為美國作出的貢獻令人尊敬。他甚至可以指出他過去曾有幾次與自己的黨派分道揚鑣。然而，在過去八年中，他十之八九都贊同布什總統(tǒng)的主張。而在經(jīng)濟問題上，他仍然無法向美國民眾說明，他與布什的做法會有什么太大區(qū)別。如果提出的稅收計劃沒有讓1億多美國中產(chǎn)階級獲得一分錢的稅項減免，這不是變革──即使是《國家評論》（national review）雜志和其他保守派組織也抱怨說，這個計劃對造福中產(chǎn)階級貢獻寥寥。在近年來不斷累積的財政赤字上再添5萬億美元，這不是變革。如果解決房市危機的計劃又將另外3,000億美元納稅人的錢置于風(fēng)險之中，這不是變革──《華爾街日報》編輯委員會稱這一計劃“產(chǎn)生的問題比解決的問題多”。

如果說我們從此次經(jīng)濟危機中學(xué)到了什么的話，那就是我們要患難與共。從首席執(zhí)行長到公司股東，從金融家到工廠工人，我們每個人都休戚相關(guān)，因為美國的民眾越富足，美國才會越繁榮。這就是為什么我們有些企業(yè)巨頭把提高員工薪酬作為自己的一項使命，讓員工能買得起自己生產(chǎn)的產(chǎn)品，比如巴菲特（warren buffett）這樣的商界人士。我對能有他的支持感到自豪。這就是為什么美國經(jīng)濟不僅是世界上最偉大的財富創(chuàng)造者，也是世界上最偉大的就業(yè)機會制造者。它一直托舉著有史以來規(guī)模最大的中產(chǎn)階級之舟。

為了重塑美國中產(chǎn)階級，我將給予95%的工人及其家庭稅收減免待遇。如果你工作，就交稅；如果年收入不足20萬美元，你會獲得減稅；即使你的年收入超過了25萬美元，你所負擔(dān)的稅率也比上世紀九十年代要低──資本利得稅和股息稅要比里根總統(tǒng)時期低三分之一。

通過重建日益破敗的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、在美國的各個角落接通寬帶，我們將創(chuàng)造200萬個就業(yè)崗位。未來的十年中，我將每年在可再生能源領(lǐng)域投資150億美元，進而新增500萬個崗位；這些工作環(huán)保、薪酬豐厚、不能外包，而且能幫助我們擺脫對中東石油的依賴。

在醫(yī)療問題上，我們不必在政府運營的體系和目前這種我們難以負擔(dān)的體系之間進行選擇。我的競選對手提出的方案會令美國人有史以來首次為自己獲得的醫(yī)療福利納稅。我的計劃則會讓醫(yī)療保健成為每個美國人都負擔(dān)得起、享受得到的服務(wù)。根據(jù)我的計劃，如果你已經(jīng)有了醫(yī)療保險，你將看到的唯一一個變化是保費降低；如果你還沒有醫(yī)療保險，你將能與國會議員們享受到同樣的醫(yī)療福利。為了讓每個孩子享受到世界級的教育，讓他們能在全球經(jīng)濟中競爭21世紀的工作崗位，我將投資早期教育，并且增加師資力量。不過，我同時也會要求更高的標(biāo)準和更多的責(zé)任。我們向每個美國年輕人作出承諾：如果你致力于服務(wù)你的社區(qū)或是你的國家，我們將確保你能負擔(dān)得起自己的學(xué)費。

在國防安全問題上，我將負責(zé)任地結(jié)束伊拉克戰(zhàn)爭，這樣我們就不必在這個國家享有巨額財政盈余的情況下每月卻要在那里花費100億美元。為了美國的經(jīng)濟、美國的軍隊和伊拉克的長期穩(wěn)定，現(xiàn)在是伊拉克人站出來的時候了。我將最終完成對本·拉登（bin laden）和基地組織恐怖分子的打擊，正是這些人制造了9/11恐怖襲擊，同時我還會建立新的合作關(guān)系、擊退21世紀出現(xiàn)的威脅，恢復(fù)我們的道德威望，讓美國仍然是地球上最后也是最好的希望。這些事情沒有一件是輕而易舉能辦到的，也不是一朝一夕能完成的。但是，我堅信我們能成功，因為我對美國深信不疑。是美國使我們的父輩相信，即使他們自己無法上大學(xué)，也可以每周積攢下一些錢來，讓他們的孩子接受好的教育；即使他們不能擁有自己的企業(yè)，也可以通過努力工作讓自己的孩子創(chuàng)辦企業(yè)。在美國歷史的每個時刻，我們都勇敢地站起來面對挑戰(zhàn)，因為我們從來沒有忘記過這樣一個基本真理：在美國，我們的命運并非天定，而是掌握在我們自己的手中。所以，明天，我懇請你們書寫美國下一個偉大的篇章。我懇請你們不只相信我?guī)碜兏锏哪芰?，還有你們自己的能力。明天，你們可以選擇這樣一種政策──向美國中產(chǎn)階級進行投入、創(chuàng)造新的就業(yè)崗位、實現(xiàn)經(jīng)濟增長讓人人都有成功的機會。你們可以選擇希望而非恐懼、選擇團結(jié)而非分裂、選擇變革的希望而非墨守成規(guī)。如果你們投我的票，我們將不僅贏得此次競選，還將一起改變這個國家、改變這個世界。篇二：2008年美國大選奧巴馬勝選演講全文(中文英文對照)2008年美國大選奧巴馬勝選演講全文（中文英文對照演說）08年11.5大選美國總統(tǒng)奧巴馬勝選演說《美國的變革》

您好，芝加哥。

美國是否暗藏一切皆有可能的巨大潛力？美國是否已經(jīng)實現(xiàn)開國者鍛造的美國夢？民主信仰是否具有強大力量？如果還有人對此報以懷疑，那么今晚這里發(fā)生的一切就是答案。學(xué)校旁、教堂邊，無數(shù)人都在排隊投票，這一情景我們已經(jīng)多年未見；3個小時、4個小時，他們?yōu)榇硕群蛄季?，這是很多同胞有生以來的第一次。因為他們相信，這一次，將不同以往；這一次，因為他們的呼聲而有所不同。

無論老少貧富，無論共和黨抑或民主黨，不管是黑皮膚、白種人、拉丁后裔、亞裔子孫還是本土美國人；無論性向如何，不管健康抑或殘疾，所有的美國人民都向全世界傳遞出這樣一條信息：我們從來都不是紅藍陣營的政治堆砌，我們是，而且永遠是，美利堅合眾國。

長期以來，很多人缺乏信心，對自己所能取得的成就畏首畏尾、疑心重重。如今，我們走在歷史的長河里，挺起胸膛，勾勒出美好明天的光輝畫卷。

此情此景，等待尤長。然而，就在今晚，在這個大選的日子，在這個具有歷史性意義的時刻，由于你們的付出，美國終于迎來了變革。

剛剛，我接到了麥凱恩參議員禮貌得體的祝賀電話。為了此次競選，他奮戰(zhàn)良久、竭盡所能；為了他所深愛的美國，他曾作出了更長久、更努力的奉獻。麥凱恩參議員為美國所作出的犧牲是大部分人難以想象的，他這種英勇無私的奉獻改善了我們的生活。對于麥凱恩參議員和佩林州長所取得的成就，我對他們致以祝賀。在接下來的幾個月里，以重振美國為目標(biāo)，我期待著與他們的合作。

在此，我想感謝一路陪伴我的競選搭檔，他就是我們即將上任的副總統(tǒng)，喬-拜登。為了讓美國廣大的工人階層發(fā)出自己的聲音，他毫無私心地全身心投入競選，因為他和那些賓夕法尼亞州斯克蘭頓城街頭的人們一樣，出生平凡，一切白手起家。

如果沒有米歇爾-奧巴馬，這一準美國第一夫人的堅定支持，今晚，我就不會站在這兒了。我們相伴走過了16個春秋，她是我們整個家庭的頂梁柱，我一生的摯愛。還有，薩沙和瑪利亞，我愛你們，你們姊妹倆終于可以帶著你們的新寵物狗入主白宮了。我知道，就像我的其他已故親屬一樣，外祖母一定也在某處注視著我，雖然她已經(jīng)不在人世。是他們造就了今天的我。今晚我很想念他們，我對他們的虧欠無以計量。

我的妹妹瑪雅，我的妹妹阿爾瑪，我的所有其他的兄弟姐妹們，感謝你們給了我這么多的一切支持，我感謝他們。

和我的競選顧問大衛(wèi)-plouffe，此次競選的無名英雄，我認為，是他打造了美利堅合眾國歷史上最好的-最好的政治運動。

我想對我的競選經(jīng)理大衛(wèi)-普勞夫、首席戰(zhàn)略師大衛(wèi)-阿克塞爾羅德以及我們這個史上最佳的競選團隊說，是你們讓這一切成為了現(xiàn)實，對于你們?yōu)榇怂龅臓奚透冻鑫矣肋h感懷在心。然而，有一點是最重要的，那就是我永遠都不會忘記，真正擁有這個勝利的是你們，你們所有人！對于入主白宮，我從來都不是最熱候選人。競選伊始，我們的資金并不充裕，獲得的支持也不多。我們的競選班子并非始于華府，而是一路從艾奧瓦州的得梅因酒店后院、輾轉(zhuǎn)北卡羅萊納州的康克酒店客房，后來會首在西弗吉尼亞州查爾斯頓酒店的主廳?? 我們的勝利來自于廣大工薪階級，正是他們從僅有的微薄存款里掏出5美元、10美元或者20美元來支持我們的競選。我們的力量來自于摘下冷漠面罩的年輕一代，來自于夜以繼日奮力工作以維持生計的下層百姓，來自于冒著嚴寒酷暑、戶戶敲門宣傳的團隊中流砥柱，更來自于成千上萬的大選志愿者。他們用出色的奉獻精神和組織能力證明了一個民有、民治、民享的政府在兩百年后仍然保持著生命力。這就是你們的勝利！我明白，你們所做的這些，并不僅僅是為了贏得這次競選，也不單單只是為了我本人。你們之所以這么做，是因為你們懂得前方任務(wù)的艱巨。即使我們今晚沉浸于慶祝的喜悅之中，我們也深知明天將會面臨的將是我們這輩子最為艱巨的挑戰(zhàn)：兩場戰(zhàn)爭、瀕臨危險的地球和百年一遇的金融危機；即使今晚我們安然站在此處，我們也深知那些深陷伊拉克沙漠和阿富汗山區(qū)的英勇美國戰(zhàn)士，是為了我們而冒著生命危險。還有那些孩子早已熟睡、自己卻輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè)的人父人母，他們夜不能寐，想著如何還清房貸、如何支付醫(yī)藥費以及給孩子存下大學(xué)經(jīng)費。我們要掌握新能源，創(chuàng)造就業(yè)崗位，建造新校舍，正視存在的威脅，并修復(fù)與盟友的關(guān)系。

前方的道路很漫長，我們將步履維艱。我們也許無法在一年內(nèi)，甚至是（我的）一個任期內(nèi)，達成我們的目標(biāo)。但是，今晚，我比任何時候都對此更有信心。我承諾，我們所有人將作為一個整體順利的到達目的地。

我們將不可避免地遭遇許多挫折，也許開頭并不會一帆風(fēng)順。我們需要弄明白一點，那就是政府無法解決所有的問題，也許有很多人不會同意我上臺執(zhí)政后制定的政策。不過，我將坦誠地接受各方的批評，直面我們的挑戰(zhàn)。我將傾聽你們的意見，尤其是不同的政見。總之，我邀請各位一同投入到國家的建設(shè)中來，用我們勤勞的雙手堆砌建設(shè)這個國家所需的磚瓦。正是這一方式，使美國在221年的建國道路上不斷前行。

我在21個月前的深冬開始為競選做出的努力并不會在今晚畫上句號。我們所追求的并不是這場選舉的勝利，這僅僅是為我們提供了一個做出變革的機會。如果回到過去的老路，我們將無法做出任何改變。當(dāng)然，如果沒有你們，一切都無法發(fā)生。

所以，讓我們一同喚醒自己的愛國心，喚醒為國效力的責(zé)任感，我們將一道披星戴月，披荊斬棘向前行進，我們需要照顧的不再只有我們自己，而是每一個人。這次的金融危機讓我們認識到一個事實，如果大眾受苦受難，華爾街就不可能繁華似錦。我們必須攜手與共、共同經(jīng)歷這個國家的榮辱興衰。

長期以來，兩黨隔閡以及不成熟的狹隘主義造成了我們現(xiàn)在的失敗政策，所以讓我們一同抵制住這種傾向，避免回到那條老路。請記住，這個國家有一個民主黨人將手扛民主和共和兩黨旗幟邁向白宮。充滿自信，崇尚個人自由，維護國家團結(jié)將是我們共同追求的價值觀。盡管民主黨在今晚取得了壓倒性的勝利，但是我們將繼續(xù)帶著謙卑前行，愈合這個國家因分裂受到的創(chuàng)傷。社會的分裂曾經(jīng)阻礙我們國家前行的腳步。正如林肯總統(tǒng)在1861年的反國家分裂的演說中說到，“我們不是敵人，而是朋友。我們決不能成為敵人。盡管目前的情緒有些緊張，但決不能容許它使我們之間的親密情感紐帶破裂?！蔽乙嬖V那些沒有將選票投給我的朋友，也許我沒有贏得你們的選票，但我將聆聽你們的聲音，我需要你們的幫助，因為我同樣將成為你們的總統(tǒng)。

我要告訴那些在美國大陸以外關(guān)注今晚選舉的人們，也許你們在一個被世界遺忘的角落通過收音機了解今晚的選舉，盡管我們的國情不一樣，但是我們的命運是緊緊聯(lián)系在一起的。一個全新的美國領(lǐng)導(dǎo)層即將呼之欲出。我要告訴那些試圖破壞這個世界的人們，我們將打敗你們！我要告訴那些追求和平和安全的人們，我們將全力支持你們！我要告訴那些對美國的未來持懷疑態(tài)度的人們，今晚，我們再次證明了一個事實，那就是這個國家擁有強大的力量，這并不是因為我們擁有眾多的武器和財富。民主、自由、機遇、堅定不屈的希望才是這個國家保持強大的持久力量！

美國強大的真諦在于它能夠做出改變，我們的國家可以變得更加完美。我們過去所達到的成就讓我們看到了前進的希望。

本屆選舉創(chuàng)造了多項歷史之最，有許多故事將代代相傳。但此時此刻，我腦海中想起的是一名來自亞特蘭大的選民，這位名叫安妮-尼克松-庫珀的女性和千千萬萬的選民一樣，靜靜地站在投票隊伍之中，投出自己的選票，表達自己的聲音。不過，與眾不同的是，她已經(jīng)106歲高齡了。在她出生的年代，公路上沒有汽車，天空中沒有飛機。像她一樣的人僅僅因為膚色和性別就被擋在參與投票的大門之外。

今晚，我由此聯(lián)想到了她一個世紀以來，在美國見證的一切：困苦與希望，奮斗與進步，那是一個讓人無能為力的年代，但人們必須不斷告訴自己美國的偉大信條：“是的，我們可以！”曾經(jīng)，女性無法表達自己的意見，她們的希望成為幻影。如今，她終于見證了這一幕，和她一樣有著悲慘遭遇的人們成功地投出了自己的選票。是的，我們可以！當(dāng)整個美國大陸都籠罩在經(jīng)濟大蕭條的絕望之中時，她見證了一個國家戰(zhàn)勝自身恐懼，重新崛起，羅斯?？偨y(tǒng)推行的“新政”不僅給美國帶來了新的就業(yè)機會，更給美國人民帶來了共同的價值觀。是的，我們可以！

當(dāng)日本的炸彈投向我們的港口，當(dāng)世界被暴政所威脅，她見證了一個崛起的民族，民主重獲新生。是的，我們可以！

她目睹了發(fā)生在蒙哥馬利巴士上、伯明翰的高壓水龍頭下、塞爾瑪大橋上的種族歧視??而后，來自亞特蘭大民權(quán)先驅(qū)告訴人們，“我們可以戰(zhàn)勝這一切”。是的，我們可以！而后，人類登月，柏林墻倒塌，世界重新集結(jié)在科學(xué)和想象力的號角下。現(xiàn)在，在這場選舉中，她終于用自己的指尖觸碰到投票屏幕，鄭重地投下選票。飽經(jīng)106年的滄桑變化，穿越

歲月的風(fēng)云變遷，她知道美國能做出怎樣的改變。是的，我們可以！

美國，我們風(fēng)雨兼程，一路走來。我們經(jīng)歷了太多，但前方仍有許多夢想等待著我們?nèi)崿F(xiàn)。今晚，讓我們大聲地問自己，我們的孩子是否還能看到下一個世紀；我可愛的女兒是否能和安妮-尼克松-庫珀一樣幸運，享受漫長的人生。他們將看到怎樣的變革？我們將取得怎樣的進步？

這是我們給出答案的機會。這是屬于我們的時刻。這是我們的時代：讓人們有事可做；為我們的孩子打開機遇之門；推動世界和平與繁榮；再次鍛造美國夢，重申這一不可動搖的事實——雖然我們每個人不盡相同，但我們是一個整體，只要我們呼吸尚存，希望就永不磨滅。我們將用那歷經(jīng)時間考驗的不朽信條擲地有聲地直面質(zhì)疑：“是的，我們可以！” 謝謝！上帝保佑你們，保佑美利堅合眾國！篇三：奧巴馬競選演講稿

奧巴馬競選演講稿 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.如果有人懷疑美國是個一切皆有可能的地方，懷疑美國奠基者的夢想在我們這個時代依然燃燒，懷疑我們民主的力量，那么今晚這些疑問都有了答案。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.學(xué)校和教堂門外的長龍便是答案。排隊的人數(shù)之多，在美國歷史上前所未有。為了投票，他們排隊長達三、四個小時。許多人一生中第一次投票，因為他們認為這一次大選結(jié)果必須不同以往，而他們手中的一票可能決定勝負。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.無論年齡，無論貧富，無論民主黨人或共和黨人，無論黑人、白人，無論拉美裔、亞裔、印地安人, 無論同性戀、異性戀，無論殘障人、健全人，所有的人，他們向全世界喊出了同一個聲音：我們并不隸屬 “紅州”與 “藍州”的對立陣營，我們屬于美利堅合眾國，現(xiàn)在如此，永遠如此！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.長久以來，很多人說：我們對自己的能量應(yīng)該冷漠，應(yīng)該恐懼，應(yīng)該懷疑。但是，歷史之輪如今已在我們手中，我們又一次將歷史之輪轉(zhuǎn)往更美好的未來。

漫漫征程，今宵終于來臨。特殊的一天，特殊的一次大選，特殊的決定性時刻，美國迎來了變革。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.剛才，麥凱恩參議員很有風(fēng)度地給我打了個電話。在這次競選中，他的努力持久而艱巨。為了這個他摯愛的國家，他的努力更持久、更艱巨。他為美國的奉獻超出絕大多數(shù)人的想象。他是一位勇敢無私的領(lǐng)袖，有了他的奉獻，我們的生活才更美好。我對他和佩林州長的成績表示祝賀。同時，我也期待著與他們共同努力，再續(xù)美國輝煌。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.我要感謝我的競選搭檔——當(dāng)選副總統(tǒng)喬?拜登。為了與他一起在斯克蘭頓市街頭長大、一起坐火車返回特拉華州的人們，拜登全心全意地竟選，他代表了這些普通人的聲音。

我要感謝下一位第一夫人米歇爾?奧巴馬。她是我家的中流砥柱，是我生命中的最愛。沒有她在過去16年來的堅定支持，今晚我就不可能站在這里。我要感謝兩個女兒薩沙和瑪麗婭，我太愛你們兩個了，你們將得到一條新的小狗，它將與我們一起入住白宮。我還要感謝已去世的外婆，我知道此刻她正在天上注視著我。她與我的家人一起造就了今天的我。今夜我思念他們，他們對我的恩情比山高、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.我要感謝我的競選經(jīng)理大衛(wèi)?普魯夫，感謝首席策劃師大衛(wèi)?阿克塞羅德以及整個競選團隊，他們是政治史上最優(yōu)秀的競選團隊。你們成就了今夜，我永遠感謝你們?yōu)榻褚顾冻龅囊磺小ut above all, i will never forget who this victory truly belongs to — it belongs to you.但最重要的是，我將永遠不會忘記這場勝利真正屬于誰---是你們！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.我從來不是最有希望的候選人。起初，我們的資金不多，贊助人也不多。我們的競選并非始于華盛頓的華麗大廳，而是起于德莫奈地區(qū)某家的后院、康科德地區(qū)的某家客廳、查爾斯頓地區(qū)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.勞動大眾從自己的微薄積蓄中掏出5美元、10美元、20美元，拿來捐助我們的事業(yè)。年輕人證明了他們絕非所謂“冷漠的一代”。他們遠離家鄉(xiāng)和親人，拿著微薄的報酬，起早摸黑地助選。上了年紀的人也頂著嚴寒酷暑，敲開陌生人的家門助選。無數(shù)美國人自愿組織起來，充當(dāng)自愿者。正是這些人壯大了我們的聲勢。他們的行動證明了在兩百多年以后，民有、民治、民享的政府并未從地球上消失。這是你們的勝利。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.你們這樣做，并不只是為了贏得一場大選，更不是為了我個人。你們這樣做，是因為你們清楚未來的任務(wù)有多么艱巨。今晚我們在歡慶，明天我們就將面對一生之中最為嚴峻的挑戰(zhàn)－－兩場戰(zhàn)爭、一個充滿危險的星球，還有百年一遇的金融危機。今晚我們在這里慶祝，但我們知道在伊拉克的沙漠里，在阿富汗的群山中，許許多多勇敢的美國人醒來后就將為了我們而面臨生命危險。許許多多的父母會在孩子熟睡后仍難以入眠，他們正在為月供、醫(yī)藥費，孩子今后的大學(xué)費用而發(fā)愁。我們需要開發(fā)新能源，創(chuàng)造就業(yè)機會，建造新學(xué)校，迎接挑戰(zhàn)和威脅，并修復(fù)與盟國的關(guān)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.前方道路還很漫長，任務(wù)艱巨。一年之內(nèi)，甚至一屆總統(tǒng)任期之內(nèi)，我們可能都無法完成這些任務(wù)。但我從未像今晚這樣對美國滿懷希望，我相信我們會實 現(xiàn)這個目標(biāo)。我向你們承諾－－我們美利堅民族將實現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)！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.我們會遇到挫折，會出師不利，會有許多人不認同我的某一項決定或政策。政府并不能解決所有問題，但我會向你們坦陳我們所面臨的挑戰(zhàn)。我會聆聽你們的意見，尤其是在我們意見相左之時。最重要的是，我會讓你們一起重建這個國家。用自己的雙手，從一磚一瓦做起。這是美國立國221年以來的前進方式，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個月前那個隆冬所開始的一切，絕不應(yīng)在這一個秋夜結(jié)束。我們所尋求的變革并不只是贏得大選，這只是給變革提供了一個機會。假如我們照老路子辦事，就沒有變革；沒有你們，就沒有變革。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.讓我們重新發(fā)揚愛國精神，樹立嶄新的服務(wù)意識、責(zé)任感，每個人下定決心，一起努力工作，彼此關(guān)愛；讓我們牢記這場金融危機帶來的教訓(xùn)：不能允許商業(yè)街掙扎的同時卻讓華爾街繁榮。在這個國家，我們作為同一個民族，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.黨派之爭、瑣碎幼稚，長期以來這些東西荼毒了我們的政壇。讓我們牢記，當(dāng)來自伊利諾伊州的一位先生首次將共和黨大旗扛進白宮時，伴隨著他的是自強自立、個人自由、國家統(tǒng)一的共和黨建黨理念。這也是我們所有人都珍視的理念。雖然民主黨今晚大勝，但我們態(tài)度謙卑，并決心彌合阻礙我們進步的分歧。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.當(dāng)年,林肯面對的是一個遠比目前更為分裂的國家。他說：“我們不是敵人，而是朋友??雖然激情可能不再，但是我們的感情紐帶不會割斷?！睂τ谀切┈F(xiàn)在并不支持我的美國人，我想說，雖然我沒有贏得你們的選票，但我聽到了你們的聲音，我需要你們的幫助，我也將是你們的總統(tǒng)。

對于關(guān)注今夜結(jié)果的國際人士，不管他們是在國會、皇宮關(guān)注，還是在荒僻地帶收聽電臺，我們的態(tài)度是：我們美國人的經(jīng)歷各有不同，但我們的命運相關(guān)，新的美國領(lǐng)袖誕生了。對于想毀滅這個世界的人們，我們必將擊敗你們。對于追求和平和安全的人們，我們將支持你們。對于懷疑美國這盞燈塔是否依然明亮的人們，今天晚上我們已再次證明：美國的真正力量來源并非軍事威力或財富規(guī)模，而是我們理想的恒久力量：民主、自由、機會和不屈的希望。

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.美國能夠變革，這才是美國真正的精髓。我們的聯(lián)邦會不斷完善。我們已經(jīng)取得的成就，將為我們將來能夠并且必須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.這次大選創(chuàng)造了多項“第一”，誕生了很多將流芳后世的故事，但今晚令我最為難忘的卻是一位在亞特蘭大投票的婦女：安妮?庫波爾。她和無數(shù)排隊等候投票的選民沒有什么差別，唯一的不同是她高齡106歲。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.在她出生的那個時代，黑奴制剛剛廢除。那時路上沒有汽車，天上沒有飛機。篇四：奧巴馬競選勝利演講(中英文對照)thank you so much.非常感謝。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，曾經(jīng)的殖民國在贏得主權(quán)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.歷史因為你們而走到了這里，因為你們堅信我們的國家能克服戰(zhàn)爭與蕭條，能擺脫絕望深淵走向希望的峰頂，堅信我們每個人都能追求自己的夢，我們生活在共同的美國大家庭，同舟共濟。

今晚，在選舉中，你們，美國人民，告訴了我們，雖然路漫漫其修遠，但我們能挺直腰桿、峰回路轉(zhuǎn)，我們都心中有數(shù)，美利堅合眾國最美好的未來還未到來。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.我要感謝每一位參與選舉的國人，無論你是第一時間就投上了票，還是排長隊才投上了票。順便說一聲，這個問題我們要解決。無論你是去走去投票站投票，還是電話投票；無論你是給奧巴馬投票，還是為羅姆尼投票，你們的聲音我們聽到了，有著非凡意義。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.我剛剛跟羅姆尼通過話，我祝賀他與保羅萊恩在此次艱難競選中取得的成績。我們也許激烈對抗，但這都是因為我們深深地愛著祖國，關(guān)心祖國的未來。從喬治到萊諾再到他們的兒子米特，羅姆尼家族通過公共服務(wù)回饋社會，這些饋贈值得我們尊敬并為之鼓掌。未來幾周，我也期待與羅姆尼座談，共同探討如何攜手共計推動國家的前進。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.我想感謝我四年來的朋友、伙伴，他就是美國的快樂戰(zhàn)士、史上最好副總統(tǒng)，喬伊·拜登。

如果沒有那個20年前應(yīng)允嫁給我的女士，我不可能成為今日之我。我要公開表達：米歇爾，我從未像現(xiàn)在這樣愛你，看到美國人民愛戴你這位第一夫人，我從未感到如此自豪。薩莎和瑪莉亞，我們看著你們長大，變成了兩位和媽媽一樣健康聰明的美麗少女，我為你們感到驕傲。但我認為現(xiàn)在給你們養(yǎng)一條寵物狗就足夠了。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.感謝史上最好的我的競選團隊和志愿者，你們是最好的、最棒的。你們中有的人是第一次加入，有的人一直陪伴我左右。但你們都是我的家人。不管你們做什么、去哪里，你們都會記住我們共同創(chuàng)造的歷史，以及我這位感恩你們一生的總統(tǒng)。感謝你們一直以來對我的信任和扶持，感謝你們所做的一切，感謝你們不可思議的付出。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.我知道政治競選有時看起來很微不足道，甚至很傻。為市井談資提供了不少素材，告訴人們政治就是自負之戰(zhàn)或利益之爭。但是如果你有機會和擁擠在高中體育館警戒線外參加競選活動的人們談話，或者見到偏遠縣城競選辦公室中工作至深夜的人們，你會有截然不同的體會。

這就是我們一切行動的緣由。這就是政治能做到的事情。這也是競選之所以重要的原因。事無細微，這些都是大事，是重要的事。在一個3億人口的國家里，民主的觀點嘈雜、混亂而復(fù)雜。我們都有自己的觀點，我們都有自己深深的信仰。當(dāng)我們經(jīng)歷艱難時刻，做出國家統(tǒng)一抉擇時，自然會激發(fā)熱情與沖突。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.今晚過后這些不會改變，也不該改變。這些爭議是自由的表現(xiàn)。我們別忘了，在遙遠的他國，人民冒險爭取權(quán)益，僅僅就是為了能和我們一樣，能為重要的事情發(fā)表言論，能有投票的機會。

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.擱置分歧，求同存異。我們都對美國的未來有著共同的希望。我們希望孩子能上好學(xué)校，有好老師，國家能保持技術(shù)、發(fā)現(xiàn)和創(chuàng)新的全球領(lǐng)先地位，提供好的工作崗位和新的商機。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.我們相信美國是一個慷慨寬厚、有同情心、有包容心的國家，對移民敞開懷抱，讓他們的孩子可以在美國學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)，對著美國國旗宣誓，讓芝加哥南部的孩子能清楚地看到自己的未來，讓北卡羅來納的家具工人之子能自由選擇未來是成為醫(yī)

生、科學(xué)家、工程師、企業(yè)家還是外交家，甚至是總統(tǒng)——這是我們希冀的未來，是我們共同的設(shè)想，是我們需要到達的方向。

現(xiàn)在，有時我們在如何實現(xiàn)這個目標(biāo)上有激烈的分歧，兩個世紀以來，進步會在恰當(dāng)?shù)臅r候到來，它不是一帆風(fēng)順、直線前行的。雖然我們有著共同的希望和夢想，但是這也不能解決所有問題或減輕我們在推進國家發(fā)展道路上建立共識、達成艱難妥協(xié)的勤勉工作。然而這一共同紐帶是我們工作的開始。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.我們的經(jīng)濟正在復(fù)蘇。數(shù)十年的戰(zhàn)爭已接近尾聲，漫長的競選也已經(jīng)結(jié)束。不管我是否贏得了你的投票，我都聽到了你們的新聲，學(xué)到了新知，是你們讓我成為了一個更好的總統(tǒng)。帶著你們的故事你們的奮斗，我回到白宮，對未來立下決心，深受啟發(fā)，從未如此深刻過。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.今晚你們的投票是為實際行動，而非政治。你選擇我們來關(guān)注你們的工作，而非我們的。在接下來的幾周和幾個月里，我希望能伸出友好之手與兩黨領(lǐng)袖合作，共同面對雙方合作方能解決的挑戰(zhàn)。降低赤字，改革賦稅，完善移民系統(tǒng)，實現(xiàn)石油獨立。我們還有更多的工作要做。

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：奧巴馬所有競選演講及相關(guān)視頻下載

第五篇：奧巴馬競選演講稿

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.假如還有人不相信美國是一個不存在不可能的地方，還有人懷疑開國之父們的夢想依然在影響著我們這個時代，還有人質(zhì)疑美利堅民主的力量，那么，他們的疑惑在今夜得到了解答。It's 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.在學(xué)校和教堂外面，人們排起了長長的隊伍，人數(shù)之多在美國歷史上前所未有。為了投上自己的一票，他們可以等待三個小時、四個小時。許多人是一生中第一次參加投票，因為他們堅信這一次必須有所變革，而他們的聲音將舉足輕重。

It's the answer spoken by young and old，rich and poor，Democrat and Republican，black，white，Latino，Asian，Native American，gay，straight，disabled and not disabled — Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of red states and blue states;we are，and always will be，the United States of America.無論民主黨人還是共和黨人，無論黑人還是白人，無論拉美裔還是亞裔，無論同性戀者還是異性戀者，無論殘疾人還是健康人，他們向全世界發(fā)出了同一個信息：我們從來不屬于共和黨的“紅州”或者民主黨的“藍州”，我們屬于美利堅合眾國，現(xiàn)在如此，永遠如此！

It's 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.在如此漫長的時期內(nèi)，曾經(jīng)有如此眾多的人們對我們說：對于我們的成功，我們應(yīng)該淡漠，應(yīng)該害怕，應(yīng)該不相信。但是，歷史之輪如今已在我們手中，歷史之輪將又一次在我們手中駛向美好未來。

It's been a long time coming，but tonight，because of what we did on this day，in this election，at this defining moment，change has come to America.通往今夜的道路很漫長，但今夜終于來臨。特殊的一天，特殊的一次大選，特殊的決定性時刻，美國迎來了變革。

I just received a very gracious call from Sen.McCain.He fought long and hard in this campaign，and he's 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 nation's promise in the months ahead.我接到了麥凱恩參議員一個非常大度的電話。在這次競選中，他作出了持久而艱巨的努力。為了這個他熱愛的國家，他作出的努力更持久、更艱巨。他為美利堅做出的犧牲，超出了我們絕大多數(shù)人的想象。他是一位勇敢無私的領(lǐng)袖，正因為有了象他這樣的服務(wù)，我們才生活得更好。我對麥凱恩參議員以及佩林州長的成績表示祝賀。同時，我也期待著在未來與他們一起為振興國家而共同努力。

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.我要感謝我的競選搭檔，一位全身心投入的男人——當(dāng)選副總統(tǒng)喬?拜登。為了與他一起在斯克蘭頓街道長大的人們，為了曾與他一起坐那趟回特拉華州火車的人們，他全心全意地竟選，他要為這些普通百姓代言。

I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16 years，the rock of our family and the love of my life，our nation's next first lady，Michelle Obama.Sasha and Malia，I love you both so much，and you have earned the new puppy that's coming with us to the White House.And while she's no longer with us，I know my grandmother is watching，along with the family that made me who I am.I miss them tonight，and know that my debt to them is beyond measure.我要感謝下一位第一夫人米歇爾?奧巴馬。她是我家的中流砥柱，是我生命中的最愛。沒有她在過去16年來的堅定支持，我就不可能今晚站在這里。我要感謝薩沙和瑪麗雅，我太愛你們兩個了，你們將有一條新的小狗，它將與我們一起入住白宮。我還要感謝已去世的外婆，我知道此刻

她與其它親人一起造就了今天的我。今夜我思念他們，我知道他們對我的恩情比山高，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 you've sacrificed to get it done.我要感謝我的競選經(jīng)理大衛(wèi)?普魯夫，感謝首席策劃師大衛(wèi)?阿克塞羅德以及整個競選團隊，他們是政治史上最優(yōu)秀的競選團隊。你們成就了今夜，我永遠感謝你們?yōu)榻褚顾鞒龅臓奚?/p>

But above all，I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to — it belongs to you.但最重要的是，我將永遠不會忘記這場勝利真正歸功于誰---是你們！

I was never the likeliest candidate for this office.We didn't 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.我曾經(jīng)是最沒有可能的候選人。起初，我們的資金不多，贊助人也不多。我們的競選并非始于華盛頓的華麗大廳，而是起于德莫奈地區(qū)某家的后院、康科德地區(qū)的某家客廳、查爾斯頓地區(qū)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 generation's apathy;who left their homes and their families for jobs that offered little pay and less sleep;from the not-so-young people

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.這些勞動大眾從自己的微薄積蓄中掏出5美元、10美元、20美元，拿來捐助我們的事業(yè)。現(xiàn)在的年輕人曾被認為是冷漠的一代，但正是這些年輕人壯大了我們的聲勢。他們離開自己的家庭和親人，拿著很少的報酬，起早摸黑地助選。上了年紀的人也頂著嚴寒酷暑，敲開陌生人的家門助選。無數(shù)的美國人自愿地組織起來，證明了在兩百多年以后，民有、民治、民享的政府并未從地球上消失。這是你們的勝利。I know you didn't do this just to win an election，and I know you didn't 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 they'll make the mortgage，or pay their doctor's 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.我知道你們這樣做并不只是為了贏得一場大選，更不是為了我個人。你們這樣做，是因為你們明白未來的任務(wù)有多么艱巨。今晚我們在歡慶，明天我們就將面對一生之中最為嚴峻的挑戰(zhàn)－－兩場戰(zhàn)爭、一個充滿危險的星球，還有百年一遇的金融危機。今晚我們站在這里慶祝，但我們知道

為了我們，他們醒來后面對的是一個有生命危險的世界。這些士兵的父母會在孩子熟睡后仍難以入眠，他們擔(dān)憂的是如何償還月供，如何支付醫(yī)藥費，如何存夠今后孩子的大學(xué)費用。我們需要開發(fā)新能源，創(chuàng)造新的就業(yè)機會；修建新的學(xué)校；我們還要迎接挑戰(zhàn)和威脅，并修復(fù)與盟國的關(guān)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.前方的道路還很漫長，任務(wù)很艱巨。一年之內(nèi)，甚至一屆任期之內(nèi)，我們可能都無法完成這些任務(wù)。但我從未像今晚這樣對美國滿懷希望，我相信我們會實現(xiàn)這個目標(biāo)。我向你們承諾－－我們美利堅民族將實現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)！There will be setbacks and false starts.There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as president，and we know that government can't 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 it's been done in America for 221 years — block by block，brick by brick，callused hand by callused hand.我們會遇到挫折，會出師不利，會有許多人不認同我得某一項決定或政策。我們知道政府并不能解決所有問題，我會向你們坦陳我們所面臨的困難。我會聆聽你們的意見，尤其是在我們意見不同的時候。最重要的是，我會請求你們一起參與重建這個國家。用自己的雙手，從一磚一瓦做起，這是美國立國221年以來的前進方式，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

— 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個月前那個隆冬所開始的一切絕不應(yīng)在今天這個秋夜結(jié)束。我們所尋求的變革并不只是贏得大選，這只是給變革提供了一個機會。假如我們?nèi)匀话凑宅F(xiàn)有方式行事，就沒有變革。沒有你們，就沒有變革。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，it's 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.讓我們發(fā)揚新的愛國精神，樹立新的服務(wù)意識和責(zé)任感；讓我們每個人下定決心，更加努力地工作，彼此關(guān)愛；讓我們牢記這場金融危機帶來的教訓(xùn)：不能允許商業(yè)街掙扎的同時卻讓華爾街繁榮。在這個國家，我們屬于同一民族，我們患難與共。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.黨派政治，瑣碎狹隘，不成熟，長期以來這些東西荼毒了我們的政治。讓我們牢記，當(dāng)來自伊利諾伊州的一名男子首次將共和黨的大旗扛進白宮時，伴隨著他的是自強自立、個人自由、國家統(tǒng)

這也是我們所有人都珍視的理念。雖然民主黨今晚大勝，但我們態(tài)度謙卑，并決心彌合阻礙我們進步的分歧。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.當(dāng)年，林肯面對的是一個比目前分歧更深更大的國家。他說：“我們不是敵人，而是朋友……雖然激情可能褪去，但是我們的感情紐帶不會割斷?！睂τ谀切┈F(xiàn)在并不支持我的美國人，我想說，雖然我沒有贏得你們的選票，但我聽到了你們的聲音，我需要你們的幫助，我也將是你們的總統(tǒng)。And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores，from parliaments and palaces to those who are huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of our world — our stories are singular，but our destiny is shared，and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand.To those who would tear this world down: We will defeat you.To those who seek peace and security: We support you.And to all those who have wondered if America's beacon still burns as bright: Tonight，we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth，but from the enduring power of our ideals: democracy，liberty，opportunity and unyielding hope.對于關(guān)注今夜結(jié)果的國際人士，不管他們是在國會、皇宮關(guān)注，還是在荒僻地帶收聽電臺，我們的態(tài)度是：我們美國人的經(jīng)歷各有不同，但我們的命運相同，新的美國領(lǐng)袖誕生了。那些想要毀滅這個世界的人們，我們必將擊敗你們。那些追求和平和安全的人們，我們支持你們。那些懷疑

今天晚上我們已再次證明：美國的真正力量來源并非軍事威力或財富規(guī)模，而是我們理想的恒久力量：民主、自由、機會和不屈的希望。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.這才是美國真正的精髓－－美國能夠變革。我們的聯(lián)邦會不斷完善。我們已經(jīng)取得的成就，將為我們將來能夠并且必須取得的成就增添了希望。This election had many firsts and many stories that will be told for generations.But one that's on my mind tonight is about a woman who cast her ballot in Atlanta.She's 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.這次大選創(chuàng)造了多項“第一”，誕生了很多將流芳后世的故事，但今晚令我最為難忘的卻是一位在亞特蘭大投票的婦女：安妮?庫波爾。她和無數(shù)排隊等待投票的選民沒有什么差別，除了一點：她高齡106歲。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 couldn't vote for two reasons — because she was a woman and because of the color of her skin.在她出生的那個時代，黑奴制剛剛結(jié)束。那時路上沒有汽車，天上沒有飛機。當(dāng)時像她這樣的人由于兩個原因不能投票－－一第一因為她是女性，第二個原因是她的膚色。And tonight，I think about all that she's seen throughout her century in America — the heartache and the hope;the struggle and the progress;the times we were told that we can't and the people who pressed on with that American creed: Yes，we can.心痛和希望，掙扎和進步，那些我們被告知我們辦不到的年代，以及我們現(xiàn)在這個年代。現(xiàn)在，我們堅信美國式信念——是的，我們能！At a time when women's voices were silenced and their hopes dismissed，she lived to see them stand up and speak out and reach for the ballot.Yes，we can.婦女曾經(jīng)沒有發(fā)言權(quán)，她們曾經(jīng)希望破滅。但安妮活到了今天，看到了婦女們站了起來，她們發(fā)表自己的見解，有了選舉權(quán)。是的，我們能。When there was despair in the Dust Bowl and depression across the land，she saw a nation conquer fear itself with a New Deal，new jobs and a new sense of common purpose.Yes，we can.上世紀三十年代，大蕭條橫掃美國大地，一片絕望。她看到了美國以新政、新的就業(yè)機會以及嶄新的共同追求戰(zhàn)勝了恐慌。是的，我們能。When the bombs fell on our harbor and tyranny threatened the world，she was there to witness a generation rise to greatness and a democracy was saved.Yes，we can.二戰(zhàn)時期，炸彈降臨我們的海港上空，全世界受到獨裁專制的威脅，她見證了美國一代人的偉大崛起，他們拯救了民主。是的，我們能。She was there for the buses in Montgomery，the hoses in Birmingham，a bridge in Selma and a preacher from Atlanta who told a people that “We Shall Overcome.” Yes，we can.她看到了蒙哥馬利通了公共汽車、伯明翰接上了水管、塞爾馬建了橋。來自亞特蘭大的一位傳教士告訴人們：我們能！。是的，我們能。A man touched down on the moon，a wall came down in Berlin，a world was connected by our own science and imagination.And this year，in this election，she touched her finger to a screen and cast her vote，because，through the best of times and the darkest of hours，she knows how America can change.Yes，we can.人類登上了月球、柏林墻倒下了，科學(xué)和想像把世界連了一塊。今年，在這次選舉中，安妮的手指輕觸電子屏幕，投下自己的一票。她在美國生活了106年，其間有最美好的時光，也有最黑暗的時刻，她知道美國能夠變革。是的，我們能。America，we have come so far.We have seen so much.But there is so much more to do.So tonight，let us ask ourselves: If our children should live to see the next century;if my daughters should be so lucky to live as long as Ann Nixon Cooper，what change will they see? What progress will we have made? 美利堅，我們已經(jīng)一路走來，我們已經(jīng)看到了那么多變化，但我們?nèi)杂泻芏嗍虑橐觥＝褚?，讓我們問自己這樣一個問題：假如我們的孩子能夠活到下一個世紀；假如我們的女兒有幸與安妮一樣長壽，她們將會看到怎樣的改變？我們又取得了怎樣的進步？This is our chance to answer that call.This is our moment.This is our time — to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids;to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace;to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth that out of many，we are one;that while we breathe，we hope，and where we are met with cynicism，and doubt，and those who tell us that we can't，we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people: Yes，we can.現(xiàn)在，我們有了回答這個問題的機會。這是我們的時刻，我們的時代。讓我們的人民重新就業(yè)，為我們的孩子打開機會的大門；恢復(fù)繁榮，促進和平；讓美國夢重放光芒，再證這一重要的真理，那就是：團結(jié)一致，眾志成城；一息尚存，希望就在；倘若有人嘲諷我們不能，懷疑我們能，那

么我們就以這一永恒信條回應(yīng)，因為它凝聚了整個民族的精神——是的，我們能！Thank you，God bless you，and may God bless the United States of America.謝謝大家！愿主保佑你們，保佑美利堅合眾國。
