奥巴马夫人米歇尔的助选演讲稿(中英文对照)

First Lady Michelle Obama: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.。

米歇尔奥巴马北大演讲稿米歇尔·奥巴马北大演讲稿。

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

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

今天,我想和你们谈谈一些关于教育、女性权益和社会责任的话题。

首先,我想强调的是教育的重要性。

教育是每个人成长的基石,也是社会进步的动力。

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

教育可以改变命运,可以让人们拥有更多的选择和机会。

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

其次,我想谈谈女性权益。

作为一个女性,我深知女性在社会中所面临的各种困难和挑战。

在很多地方,女性依然面临着教育不公、职业歧视、家庭暴力等问题。

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

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

最后,我想谈谈社会责任。

作为一个公众人物,我深知自己肩负着一定的社会责任。

我认为,每个人都应该为社会做出一些贡献,无论是大是小。

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

只有当每个人都肩负起自己的社会责任,我们才能共同创造一个更加美好的世界。

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

教育、女性权益和社会责任,这些都是我们共同的责任和使命。

让我们携手努力,共同创造一个更加美好、更加公平的世界!谢谢大家!。

奥巴马胜选演讲全文(中英文版)

奥巴马胜选演讲全文(中英文版)

奥巴马今日赢得大选,随后在芝加哥竞选总部发表胜选演讲,以下是华尔街日报中文网译制的全文:非常感谢你们。

今夜,在当年的殖民地赢得了决定自己命运的权利200多年以后,让美利坚合众国更加完美的任务又向前推进了一步。

这一进程是因为你们而向前推进的,因为你们再次确认了那种使美国胜利克服了战争和萧条的精神,那种使美国摆脱绝望的深渊并走向希望的最高点的精神,以及那种虽然我们每个人都在追求自己的个人梦想、但我们同属一个美国大家庭、并作为一个国家和民族共同进退的信仰。

今夜,在此次选举中,你们这些美国人民提醒我们,虽然我们的道路一直艰难,虽然我们的旅程一直漫长,但我们已经让自己振作起来,我们已经发起反击,我们在自己内心深处知道,对美利坚合众国来说,最美好一切属于未来。

我想感谢所有参加此次选举的美国人,无论你是首次参加选举还是为投票曾长时间排队等候。

顺便说一句,我们需要解决这些问题。

无论你是到投票站投票还是发传真投票,无论你选的是奥巴马还是罗姆尼,你都让别人听到了自己的声音,你都让美国因你而不同。

我要对罗姆尼州长说几句话,我对他和保罗•莱恩在这次竞争激烈的选举中的表现表示祝贺。

我们可能争夺得很激烈,但这仅仅是因为我们深爱着这个国家以及我们如此强烈地关心着它的未来。

从乔治到勒诺到他们的儿子米特,罗姆尼家族选择了通过公共服务来回报美国,那是一种我们今夜表示敬重和赞许的遗产。

我期待着今后几周能与罗姆尼州长坐下来讨论一下我们可以从何处着手一起努力将美国推向前进。

我想对我在过去四年中的朋友和伙伴表示感谢。

他就是美国的快乐战士、无出其右的最佳副总统乔•拜登。

如果不是那位20年前同意嫁给我的女性,我不会成为今天的我。

请让我公开说出下面这段话:米切尔,我对你的爱无以复加,我无比骄傲地看到其他美国人也爱上了你这位我们国家的第一夫人。

萨沙和玛利亚,在我们所有人的见证下你们正成长为两个坚强、聪明和美丽的年轻女性,就像你们的妈妈一样。

我十分以你们为荣。

2024年奥巴马夫人米歇尔助选演讲稿

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

在此,我要特别感谢我的丈夫奥巴马总统。

他是一个充满智慧、坚毅有力的领导,他一直以来都致力于改变人们的生活。

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

今天,我想和大家分享一些发生在我们身边的故事。

这些故事,让我明白了有时候,一个人的力量可以改变整个世界。

同时,我也希望通过这些故事,激励大家行动起来,为我们的奋斗目标而努力。

故事一:小南希是一个来自底特律的女孩。

她的父母在她很小的时候就离异了,她和妈妈一起生活。

尽管工作很辛苦,妈妈仍然坚持供她上学。

小南希非常聪明,但是她的学校却一直面临着种种困境。

于是,她决定亲自去争取更好的教育。

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

他们还通过举办义卖活动购买了一些教育资源,帮助更多的孩子们。

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

故事二:约翰是一位来自芝加哥的老师。

他教授社会科学,被学生们称为“最酷的老师”。

他一直以来都致力于鼓励学生们去探索和实践自己的梦想。

他组织了各种社区活动,帮助学生们更好地了解社会和世界。

他还为学生们提供了各种实习和实践机会,帮助他们将知识应用到实际问题中去。

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

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

每个人都可以成为一个改变者,一个启发他人的榜样。

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

改变并不是一蹴而就的,它需要时间、耐心和坚持。

我们需要敢于追求自己的梦想,同时也要努力帮助他人实现他们的梦想。

我们要与他人携手前行,共同努力,互相支持,才能赋予自己的生活以意义。

奥巴马胜选演讲全文

奥巴马胜选演讲全文

奥巴马胜选演讲全文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.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 first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different, that their voices could be that difference.It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled. Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individuals or a collection of red states and blue states. We are, and always will be, the United States of America.It’s the answer that led those who’ve been told for so long by so many to be cynical and fearful and doubtful about 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.It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this date in this election at this defining moment change has come to America.A little bit earlier this evening, I received an extraordinarily gracious call from Sen. McCain. Sen. McCain fought long and hard in this campaign. And he’s fought even longer and harder for the country that he loves. He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot begin to imagine. We are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader. I congratulate him; I congratulate Gov. Palin for all that they’ve achieved. And I look forward to working with them to renew this nation’s promise in the months ahead.I want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaignedfrom his heart, and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of Scranton and rode with on the train home to Delaware, the vice president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.And 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, the love of my life, the nation’s next first lady Michelle Obama.Sasha and Malia I love you both more than you can imagine. And you have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the new White House.And while she’s no longer with us, I know my grandmother’s watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight. I know that my debt to them is beyond measure.To my sister Maya, my sister Alma, all my other brothers and sisters, thank you so much for all the support that you’ve given me. I am grateful to them.And to my campaign manager, David Plouffe, the unsung hero of this campaign, who built the best — the best political campaign, I think, in the history of the United States of America.To my chief strategist David Axelrod who’s been a partner with me every step of the way. To 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.But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to. It belongs to you. It belongs to you.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. It was built by working men and women who dug into what little savings they had to give $5 and $10 and $20 to the 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.It drew strength from the not-so-young people who braved the bitter cold and scorching heat to knock on doors of perfect strangers, and 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 the Earth. This is your victory.And 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 the children fall asleep and wonder how they’ll make the mortgage or pay their doctors’ bills or save enough for their child’s college education.There’s new energy to harness, new jobs to be created, new schools to build, and threats to meet, alliances to repair.The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even in 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.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 the 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 to 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, calloused hand by calloused hand.What began 21 months ago in the depths of winter cannot 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 can’t happen without you, without a new spirit of service, a new spirit of sacrifice.So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of 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.Let’s resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long.Let’s 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 and individual liberty and national unity.Those are values that 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.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 tonight, but I hear your voices. I need your help. And I will be your president, too.And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from parliaments and palaces, to those who are huddled around radios inthe forgotten corners of the world, our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand.To those — to those who would tear the 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.That’s the true genius of America: that America can change. Our union can be perfected. What we’ve already achieved gives us hope for what we can and must achieve tomorrow.This election had many firsts and many stories that will be told for generations. But one that’s on my mind tonight’s 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.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.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.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.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, a new sense of common purpose. Yes we can.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.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.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.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?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 doubts 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. Thank you.God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America.美国是否暗藏一切皆有可能的巨大潜力?美国是否已经实现开国者锻造的美国梦?民主信仰是否具有强大力量?如果还有人对此报以怀疑,那么今晚这里发生的一切就是答案。

奥巴马胜选演讲全文Obama’s Victory Speech

奥巴马胜选演讲全文Obama’s Victory Speech

President Barack Obama’s speech in Chicago after his re-election Tuesday night, as transcribed by Roll CallThank 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.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.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.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.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.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.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, smartbeautiful young women, just like your mom. And I’m so proud of you guys. But I will say that for now one dog’s probably enough.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.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 folksworking late in a campaign office in some tiny county far away from home, you’ll discover something else.You’ll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who’s working 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. 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. We can neverforget 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.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. 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.We believe in a generous America, in a compassionate America, in a tolerant Ameri ca, 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 an 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.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 al l 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. 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.Tonight you voted for action, not politics as usual. You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours. And in the coming weeks and months, I am looking forward to 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.But that do esn’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-gove rnment. That’s the principle we were founded on.This country has more wealth than any nation, but that’s not what makes us rich. We have the most powerful military in history, but that’s not what makes us strong. Our university,our culture are all the en vy of the world, but that’s not what keeps the world coming to our shores.What makes America exceptional are the bonds that hold together the most diverse nation on earth. The belief that our destiny is shared; that this country only works when we accept certain obligations to one another and to future generations. The freedom which so many Americans have fought for and died for come with responsibilities as well as rights. And among those are love and charity and duty and patriotism. That’s what makes Ame rica great.I am hopeful tonight because I’ve seen the spirit at work in America. I’ve seen it in the family business whose owners would rather cut their own pay than lay off their neighbors, and in the workers who would rather cut back their hours than se e a friend lose a job. I’ve seen it in the soldiers who reenlist after losing a limb and in those SEALs who charged up the stairs into darkness and danger because they knew there was a buddy behind them watching their back.I’ve seen it on the shores of Ne w Jersey and New York, where leaders from every party and level of government have swept aside their differences to help a community rebuild from thewreckage of a terrible storm. And I saw just the other day, in Mentor, Ohio, where a father told the story of his8-year-old daughter, whose long battle with leukemia nearly cost their family everything had it not been for health care reform passing just a few months before the insurance company was about to stop paying for her care.I had an opportunity to not just talk to the father, but meet this incredible daughter of his. And when he spoke to the crowd listening to that father’s story, every parent in that room had tears in their eyes, because we knew that little girl could be our own. And I know that every American wants her future to be just as bright. That’s who we are. That’s the country I’m so proud to lead as your president.And tonight, despite all the hardship we’ve been through, despite all the frustrations of Washington, I’ve never been more hopeful about our future. I have never been more hopeful about America. And I ask you to sustain that hope. I’m not talking about blind optimism, the kind of hope that just ignores the enormity of the tasks ahead or the roadblocks that stand in our path. I’m no t talking about the wishful idealismthat allows us to just sit on the sidelines or shirk from a fight.I have always believed that hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keep reaching, to keep working, to keep fighting. America, I believe we can build on the progress we’ve made and continue to fight for new jobs and new opportunity and new security for the middle class. I believe we can keep the promise of our founders, the idea that if you’re willing to work hard, it doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from or what you look like or where you love. It doesn’t matter whether you’re black or white or Hispanic or Asian or Native American or young or old or rich or poor, able, disabled, gay or straight, you can make it here in America if you’re willing to try.I believe we can seize this future together because we are not as divided as our politics suggests. We’re not as cynical as the pundits believe. We are greater than the sum of our individual ambitions, and we remain more than a collectionof red states and blue states. We are and forever will be the United States of America.And together with your help and God’s grace we will con tinue our journey forward and remind the world just why it is that we live in the greatest nation on Earth.Thank you, America. God bless you. God bless these United States.。

感谢你们所有人,最后我要祝贺今天的主角,2013届东肯塔基大学毕业生,对(掌声)你们都应该非常自豪,如校长所说,这是人生真正的里程碑,我只能想象,你们此刻感受到的复杂情感,恣意的快乐,毫无疑问的解脱感,你们经历了很多,才得到今天的成就,你们经历了高潮和低谷,胜利和挑战,庆祝和沮丧,这里说的显然不只是爱情生活,我讲的是你们倾注心血完成的那些论文,所有那些靠咖啡因支撑的不眠之夜,以及寻找能够交心的朋友,和有归属感的群体时,那种焦躁不安的心情,我知道对于你们很多人,大学毕业并不是早已成定局的事情,有些人来自没有多少学生能读上大学的高中,有些人需要专职工作,不仅需要赚钱付学费,还要支撑自己的家庭。

米歇尔奥巴马演讲“机遇之门”视频及全文半夏时光376226转发:米歇尔奥巴马机遇之门演讲全文美国第一夫人米歇尔?奥巴马在9月4日民主党全国代表大会上发表演讲,以下是演讲稿的英文全文。

First Lady Michelle Obama:Thank you so much, Elaine…we are so grateful for your family’s service and sacrifice…and we will always have your back.Over the past few years as First Lady, I have had the extraordinary privilege of traveling all across this country.And everywhere I’ve gone, in the people I’ve met, and the storiesI’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, divinginto harm’s way to save others…flying across the country to put out afire…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 jus tgoing to walkagain, they’re going to run, and they’re going to run marathons…in theyoung man blinded by a bomb in Afghanistan who said, simply, “…I’d givemy eyes 100 times again to have the chance to do what I have done andwhat I can still do.”Every day, the people I meet inspire me…every day, they make meproud…every day they remind me how blessed we are to live in thegreatest nation on earth.Serving as your First Lady is an honor and a privilege…but back when wefirst came together four years ago, I still had some concerns about thisjourney we’d begun.While I believed deeply in my husband’s vision for this country…and Iwas certain he would make an extraordinary President…like any mother, Iwas worried about what it would mean for our girls if he got that chance.How would we keep them grounded under the glare of the national spotlight?How would they feel being uprooted fromtheir school, their friends, and the only home they’d ever known?Our life before moving to Washington was filled with simplejo ys…Saturdays at soccer games, Sundays at grandma’s house…and a datenight for Barack and me was either dinner or a movie, because as anexhausted mom, I couldn’t stay awake for both.And the truth is, I loved the life we had built for our girls…I deeplylov ed the man I had built that life with…and I didn’t want that tochange if he became President.I loved Barack just the way he was.You see, even though back then Barack was Senator and a presidentialcandidate…to me, he was still the guy who’d picked me up f or our datesin a car that was so rusted out, I could actually see the pavement goingby through a hole in the passenger side door…he was the guy whoseproudest possession was a coffee table he’d found in a dumpster, andwhose 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 Ihad found a kindred spirit, someone whose values and upbringing were somuch like mine.You see, Barack and I were both raised by families who didn’t have muchin the way of money or material possessions but who had given ussomething far more valuable their unconditional love, their unflinchingsacrifice, and the chance to go places they had never imagined forthemselves.My father was a pump operator at the city water plant, and he wasdiagnosed 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 inpain…I knew there were plenty of mornings when it was a struggle for himto simply get out of bed.But every morning, I watched my father wake up with a smile, grab hiswalker, prop himself up against the bathroom sink, and slowly shave andbutton his uniform.And when he returned home after a long day’s work, my brother and Iwould stand at the top of the stairs to our little apartment, patientlywaiting to greet him…watching as he reached down to lift one leg, andthen 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 ofeducation 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 wenever 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 beingable 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 g rown upall 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 comm unity bank…andshe moved quickly up the ranks…but like so many women, she hit a glassceiling.And for years, men no more qualified than she was men she had actuallytrained were promoted up the ladder ahead of her, earning more and moremoney 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 withoutcomplaint 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 thatothers had much more than they did…in fact, they admiredit.They simply believed in that fundamental American promise that, even ifyou don’t start out with much, if you work hard and do what you’resupposed 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 morethan how much you make…that helping others means more than just gettingahead yourself.We learned about honesty and integrity that the truth matters…that youdon’t take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules…and successdoesn’t count unless you earn it fair and square.We learned about gratitude and humility that so many people had a handin our success, from the teachers who inspired us to the janitors whokept our school clean…and we were taught to value everyone’s contribution and treat everyone with respect.Those are thevalues 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 yea rs 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 havetested my husband in ways I never could have imagined, I have seenfirsthand that being president doe sn’t change who you are it reveals whoyou 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 arealways the hard ones the problems where no amount of data or numberswill get you to the right answer…the judgment calls where the stakes areso 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 itcomes to rebuilding our economy, Barack is thinking about folks like my dad and like his grandmothe r.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 creatingjobs again jobs you can raise a family on, good jobs right here in theUnited States of America.When it comes to the health of our families, Barack refused to listen toall 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’snot 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 grandparentsshould be able to afford their medicine…our kids should be able to see adoctor when they’re sick…and no one in this country shouldever gobroke because of an accident or illness.And he believes that women are more than capable of making our ownchoices about our bodies and our health care…that’s what my husbandstands for.When it comes to giving our kids the education they deserve, Barackknows that like me and like so many of you, he never could’ve attendedcollege without financial aid.And believe it or not, when we were first married, our combined monthlystudent 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 keepinterest rates down, because he wants every young person to fulfilltheir 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 wha t 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 wantseveryone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who weare, 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 walkedthrough that doorway of opportunity…you do not slam it shut behindyou…you reach back, and you give other folks the same chances thathelped you succeed.So when people ask me whether being in the White House has changed myhusband, I can honestly say that when it comes to his character, and hisconvictions, and his heart, Barack Obama is still the same man I fellin love with all t hose years ago.He’s the same man who started his career by turning down high payingjobs and instead working in struggling neighborhoods where a steel planthad shut down, fighting to rebuild those communities and get folks backto work…because for Barack,success isn’t about how muchmoney youmake, it’s about the difference you make in people’s lives.He’s the same man who, when our girls were first born, would anxiouslycheck their cribs every few minutes to ensure they were still breathing,proudly showi ng them off to everyone we knew.That’s the man who sits down with me and our girls for dinner nearlyevery night, patiently answering their questions about issues in thenews, 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 theyoung person with so much promise but so few opportunities.I see the concern in his eyes…and I hear the determination in his voiceas 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’vegot so much more to do.”I see how those stories our collection of struggles and hopes and dreamsI see how that’s what drives Barack Obama every singleday.And I didn’t think it was possible, but today, I love my husband evenmore than I did four years ago…eve n more than I did 23 years ago, whenwe 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 th ing as “us” and “them” hedoesn’t care whether you’re a Democrat, a Republican, or none of theabove…he knows that we all love our country…and he’s always ready tolisten to good ideas…he’s always looking for the very best in everyonehe meets.And I love that even in the toughest moments, when we’re all sweating itwhen we’re worried that the bill won’t pass, and it seems like all islost Barack never lets himself get distracted by the chatter and thenoise.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 changeis 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 achance to fulfill my dreams, but maybe my children will…maybe mygrandchildren will.”So many of us stand here tonight because of their sacrifice, andlonging, and steadfast love…because time and again, they swallowed theirfears and doubts and did what was hard.So today, when the challenges we face start to seem overwhelming or even impossible let us never forget that doing the impossible is the historyof this nation…it’s who we are as Americans…it’s how thiscountry wasbuilt.And if our parents and grandparents could toil and struggle for us…ifthey could raise beams of steel to the sky, send a man to the moon, andconnect the world with th e touch of a button…then surely we can keep onsacrificing and building for our own kids and grandkids.And if so many brave men and women could wear our country’s uniform andsacrifice their lives for our most fundamental rights…then surely we cando our part as citizens of this great democracy to exercise those rights…surely, we can get to the polls and make our voices heard onElection Day.If farmers and blacksmiths could win independence from an empire…ifimmigrants could leave behind everything they knew for a better life onour shores…if women could be dragged to jail for seeking the vote…if ageneration could defeat a depression, and define greatness for alltime…if a young preacher could lift us to the mountaintop with hisrighteous dream…and if proud Americans can be who they are and boldlystand at the altar with who they love…then surely, surely we can giveeveryone in this country a fair chance at that great American Dream.Because in the end, more than anything else, that is the story of thiscountry the story of unwavering hope grounded in unyielding struggle.That is what has made my story, and Barack’s story, and so many other American stories possible.And I say all of this tonight not just as First Lady…and not just as a wife.You see, at the end of the day, my most important title is still“mom-in-chief.”My daughters are still the heart of my heart and the center of my world.But today, I have none of those worries from four years ago about whether Barack and I were doing what’s best for our girls.Because today, I know from experience that if I truly want to leave abetter world for my daughters, and all our sons and daughters…if we wantto give all our children a foundation for their dreams andopportunities worthy of their promise…if we want to gi ve them that senseof limitless possibility that belief that here in America, there is always something better out there if you’re willing to work for it…thenwe must work like never before…and we must once again come together andstand together for the man we can trust to keep moving this greatcountry forward…my husband, our President, President Barack Obama.Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America.草根屁民【米歇尔·奥巴马演讲“机遇之门”视频及全文】米歇尔称他和奥巴马都来自普通家庭,她激励大家,成功只能靠努力工作。
