2013年奥巴马第2次美国总统就职演讲文稿(中英文)
2013年奥巴马第2次美国总统就职演讲（中英文）MR. OBAMA: Thank you. Thank you so much. Vice President Biden, Mr. Chief Justice, Members of the United States Congress, distinguished guests, and fellow citizens:谢谢，非常感谢大家。
拜登副总统、首席大法官先生、美国国会议员们、尊敬的各位嘉宾和美国同胞们：Each time we gather to inaugurate a president, we bear witness to the enduring strength of our Constitution. We affirm the promise of our democracy. We recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names. What makes us exceptional – what makes us American – is our allegiance to an idea, articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago:每次聚在一起举行总统就职仪式时，我们总能见证到宪法经久不衰的力量。
我们都是在肯定美国民主的承诺。
我们重申，将这个国家紧密联系在一起的不是我们的肤色，也不是我们信仰的教条，更不是我们名字的来源。
让我们与众不同、成为美国人的是源自我们对于一种理念的恪守。
这一理念早在2个多世纪前就在一份宣言中有过明确阐述：“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”“我们认为这一真理是不言而喻的：人人生而平等。

第二场总统候选人辩论
美国大选——第二场总统候选人辩论直播实录【主持人】大家晚上好！我们现在是在霍夫斯特拉大学，我们今天是在这里进行第二次的总统辩论。
我们的辩论形式是市民大会。
今天我们是在纽约州一共有80几名没有作出决定的选民，我们今天会由他们来问出问题，由我们的两位候选人来作出回答。
这次的问题并没有在通过我们的总统辩论委员会，而且我们的两位候选人也没有看过这个问题。
希望我们两位总统候选人都能够简单地回答这些问题，他们每人有两分钟的时间回答问题，之后我还会问一些跟进的问题。
希望大家不要发出任何的噪音，不要喝彩或者是喝倒彩，我们有请奥巴马和前马萨诸塞州州长罗姆尼。
非常欢迎两位能够来到今天的辩论，今天有很多的选民都来到了我们的市民大会，罗姆尼我知道刚才我们掷硬币的时候您是赢了，那么有一个问题想要问你。
观众：两位候选人你们好，我是一个大学生，我听到了很多的新闻都是我毕业之后很有可能没有工作，对于我来说我没有办法自给自足，我应该怎么办呢？【罗姆尼】杰米非常感谢你的问题，我非常高兴有机会来回答这个问题，再次感谢我们的霍夫特拉大学，以及感谢您来主持我们的大会，再次感谢总统先生来回答我们的问题。
您的问题是很多的大学生都在问的问题，就是他们毕业之后怎么办。
我之前有一个学生问我，说我现在有三个临时的工作，我没有办法有全职的工作，没有办法付我的学生贷款和付房租怎么办呢？所以我们必须要让我们大学的学费降下来。
并且确保他们毕业之后能够有工作，如果说你要从你的学校当中毕业成绩是前25%的话，就应该拿到奖学金，在马省我们希望有这样的政策，我们希望有一些教育的体制，另外希望有一些贷款的项目给学生提供优惠，那么你在毕业之后应该怎么办呢？在过去的4年之中，我们看到对很多的美国年轻人来说生活非常地困难，我非常希望大家都有工作，我希望能够让经济恢复增长。
如果毕业了以后没有工作根本没有任何的意义，而且这是不能被人接受的。
现在我们是债台高筑，学生没有就业，我希望改变现状，给大家创造应该有的机会。

And although we won't be ableto get to all of them tonight, we should have a wide-rangingdiscussi on one mon th before the electi on. Each can didate will have two minu tes to resp ond to a com mon questi on, and there will be a on e-m inute follow-up. The audie nee here in the hall has agreed to beTOM: Good eve ning fromBelm ont Un iversity in Nashville, Tennessee. I'm Tom Brokawof NBC News. And welcome to this sec ond preside ntial debate, sponsored by the Commissi onon PresidentialDebates. Tonight's debate is the only one with a town hall format. The Gallup Orga ni zati on chose 80 un committed votersfrom the Nashville area to be here with us tonight. And earlier today,each of them gave me a copy of their questi on for the can didates.From all of these questi ons -- and from tens of thousa nds submittedon li neI have selected a long list of excellent questions on nor thepolite, and atte ntive, no cheeri ng or outbursts. Those of you at home,of course, are not so constrained. The only exception in the hall isright now, as it is my privilege to in troduce the can didates, Sen atorBarack Obama of Illinois and Senator John McCain of Arizona.Gen tleme n?Gentlemen, we want to get underway immediately, if we you last met at OleMiss 12 days ago, the world has cha nged a great deal, and not for the better. We still don't know where the bottom isat this time. As you might expect, many of the questions that we hav from here in the hall tonight and from online have to do withAmerican economy and, in fact, with global economic conditions. I beg in toni ght. And we're going to have our first questio n from over here in Secti on A from Ala n Schaefer. Ala n ?QUESTION: With the economy on the downturn and retired and older citize ns and workers losi ng their in comes, what's the fastest, most positive soluti on to bail these people out of the econo mic ruin?OBAMA: Well, Alan , tha nk you very much for the questi on. I want tofirst, obviously, thank Belmont University, Tom, thank you, and to allof you who are participating tonight and those of you who sent e-mail questio ns in. I thi nk everybody knows now we are in the worst finan cial crisis since the Great Depressi on. And a lot of you I think are worried about your jobs, your pensions, your retireme nt acco unts,your ability to send your child or your grandchild to college. And I believe this is a final verdict on the failed econo mic policies of thecan. Since theunderstand that you flipped a coin. And, Senator Obama, you willlast eight years, stro ngly promoted by Preside nt Bush and supported by Senator McCain,that essentially said that we should strip away regulations, consumer protections, let the market run wild, and prosperity would rain dow n on all of us. It has n't worked out that way.And so now we've got to take some decisive acti on.Now, step one was a rescue package that was passed last week. We've got to make sure that works properly. And that means strong oversight, making sure that investors, taxpayers are getting their money back and treated as in vestors. It mea ns that we are crack ing dow n on CEOs and making sure that they're not gett ing bonu ses orgolde n parachutes as a con seque nee of this package. An d, i n fact, wejust found out that AIG, a company that got a bailout, just a weekafter they got help went on a $400,000 jun ket. And I'll tell you what,the Treasury should dema nd that money back and those executives should be fired. But that's only step one.The middle-class n eed a rescue package. And that means tax cuts for the middle-class. Itmea ns help for homeow ners so that they can stayin their homes. It means that we are helping state and localgovernments set up road projects and bridge projects that keeppeople in their jobs. And the n Ion g-term we've got to fix our healthcare system, we've got to fix our energy system that is putting such aneno rmous burde n on families. You n eed somebody work ing for youand you've got to have somebody in Washington who is thinking about the middle class and not just those who can afford to hirelobbyists.TOM : Se nator McCa in?MCCAIN: Well, thank you, Tom. Tha nk you, Belmo nt Un iversity. AndSen ator Obama, it's good to be with you at a tow n hall meeti ng. AndAla n , tha nk you for your questio n. You go to the heart of America'sworries toni ght. America ns are an gry, they're upset, and they're a little fearful. It's our job to fix the problem.Now, I have a pla n to fixthis problem and it has got to do with energy independence. We'vegot to stop sending $700 billio n a year to coun tries that don't want usvery -- like us very much. We have to keep America ns' taxes low. AllAmerica ns' taxes low. Let's not raise taxes on an ybody today. We obviously have to stop this spending spree that's goi ng on in Washington. Do you know that we've laid a $10 trillion debt on these young Americans who are here with us toni ght, $500 billio n of it we owe to China? We've gotto have a package of reforms and it has got tolead to reform prosperity and peace in the world. And I think thatthis problem has become so severe, as you know, that we're going tohave to do something about home values. You know that homevalues of retirees con ti nues to decli ne and people are no Ion ger able to afford their mortgage payme nts. As preside nt of the Un ited States Alan, I would order the secretary of the treasury to immediately buy up the bad home loan mortgages in America andrenegotiate at the n ew value of those homes -- at the dimini shed value of those homesTOM: Senator, we have one minute for a discussion here. Obviously the powers of thetreasury secretary have bee n greatly expa nded. The most powerful officer in the cab inet now. Hank Pauls on says he won't stay on. Who do you have in mind to appo int to that very importa ntand let people be able to make those be able to m payments and stay in their homes. Is it expensive? Yes. know, my friends,until we stabilize home values in Amer never going to start turning around andcreating jobs and fixing our economy. And we've got to give some trust and confide nee America. I know how the do that, my friends. And it's my proposal,it's not Sen ator Obama's proposal, it's not Preside nt Bush's proposa But Iknow how to get America worki ng aga in, restore our economy and take care ofwork ing America ns. Thank you. ake thoseBut we all ica, we're back topost? Se nator McCai n?MCCAIN: Not you, Tom.TOM : No, with good reaso n.MCCAIN: You know, that's a tough question and there'squalified America ns. But I think the first criteria, Tom, would haveexte nt, Tom, is that we don't have trust and con fide nee in stituti ons because of the corrupti on on Wall Street and the greed and excess and the crony ism inWash ington, D.C.TOM: All right. Senator McCain -- Senator Obama, who do you have in mind for treasury secretary?a lot of to be somebody who immediately America ns ide nti f y with,immediately say, we can trust that in dividual. A supporter of Sen atorObama's is Warren Buffett. He has already weighed in andhelped stabilize some of the difficulties in the markets and with companiesand corporati on s, i nstituti ons today. I like Meg Whitma n, she knowswhat it's like to be out there in the marketplace. She knows how tocreate jobs. Meg Whitman was CEO of a company that started with 12people and is now 1.3 million people in America make their living offeBay. Maybe somebody here has done a little bus in ess with them.But the point is it's going to have to be somebody who in spires trustand con fide nee.Because the problem in America today to a large in ourOBAMA: Well, Warren would be a pretty good choice -- WarrenBuffett, and rm pleased to have his support. But there are other folks out there. The key is making sure that the next treasury secretaryun dersta nds that it's not eno ugh just to help those at the top.Prosperity is not just going to trickle down. We've got to help the middle class. OBAMA: And we've -- you know, Sen ator McCa in and Ihave some fun dame ntal disagreeme nts on the econo my, start ing with Senator McCain's statement earlier that he thought the fun dame ntals of the economy were sound. Part of the problem here is that for many of you, wages and in comes have flat-l in ed. For many of you, it is gett ing harder and harder to save, harder and harder to retire. And that's why, for example, on tax policy, what I want to do isprovide a middle class tax cut to 95 percent of workingeno ugh time with their kids, because they are struggli ng ends meet. SenatorMcCain is right that we've got to stabilize housingprices. But un derly ing that is loss of jobs and loss of in come. That's someth ing that the n ext treasury secretary is going to have to work on.TOM: Sen ator Obama, tha nk you very much. May I remi nd both ofAmerica ns, those who are workingtwo jobs, people who are not spendingto makeyou, if I can, that we're operat ing un der rules that you sig ned off onand whe n we have a discussi on, it really is to be confined with inabout a min ute or so. We're going to go now, Sen ator McCai n, to the next question from you from the hall here, and it comes from OliverClark (ph), who is over here in secti on F. Oliver?QUESTION: Well, Sen ators, through this econo mic crisis, most of the because as you just described it, bailout, when I believe that it'srescue, because -- because of the greed and excess in Wash ington and Wall Street, Mai n Street was pay ing a very heavy price, and we knowthat. I left my campaign and suspended it to go back to Washington to make sure that there were additional protections for the taxpayer in the form of good oversight, in the form of taxpayers being the first to be paid back whe n our economy recovers -- and it will recover -- and a nu mber of other measures.But you know, one of the real catalysts, really the match that lit this fire was Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. I 'll bet you, you may n ever eve nhave heard of them before this crisis. But you know, they're the ones that, with theencouragement of Senator Obama and his cronies and his friends in Washington, that went out and made all these risky loans, gave them to people that could n ever afford to pay back. people that I know have had abailout package, I was won deri nghelp those people out. difficult time. And through this what it is that's going to actuallyMCCAIN: Well, thank you, Oliver, and that's an excellent question,And you know, there were some of us that stood up two years ago and said we've got to enact legislation to fix this. We've got to stop this greed and excess. Mea nwhile, the Democrats in the Sen ate and some -- and some members of Con gress defe nded what Fannie and Freddie were doing. They resisted any change. Meanwhile, they were getting allkinds of money in campaign contributions. Senator Obama was the sec ond highest recipie nt of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac money in history -- in history. So this rescue package means that we will stabilize markets, we will shore up these institutions. But it's not eno ugh. That's why we're going to have to go out into the hous ing market and we're going to have to buy up these bad loa ns and we're going to have to stabilize home values, and that way, America ns, likeAlan, can realize the American dream and stay in their home. But Fannie and Freddie were the catalysts, the match that started this forest fire. There were some of us -- there were some of us that stood up aga inst it. There were others who took a hike.TOM: Sen ator Obama?OBAMA: Well, Oliver, first, let me tell you what's in the rescuepackage for you. Right now, the credit markets are frozen up and what that mea ns, as a practical matter, is that small bus in esses andsome large bus in esses just can't get loa ns. If they can't get loan, that means that they can't make payroll. If they can't make payroll,then they may end up hav ing to shut their doors and lay people off.And if you imagine just one company trying to deal with that,imagine a million companies all across the country. So it could endup hav ing an adverse effect on everybody, and that's why we had totake acti on. But we should n't have bee n there in the first place.Now, I've got to correct a little bit of Senator McCain's history,surpris ingly.Let's, first of all, understand that the biggest problem in this whole process was the deregulation of the financialSen ator McCa in, as rece ntly as March, bragged about the fact that his a deregulator. On the other hand, two years ago, I said that we'vegot a sub-prime lending crisis that has to be dealt with.Secretary Pauls on, I wrote to Federal Reserve Chairma nnownot system.I wrote to Bernanke,and told them this is something we have to deal with, and nobodydid anything about it. A year ago, I went to Wall Street and said we'vegot to reregulate, and nothing happened. And Senator McCain duri ng that period said that we should keep on deregulati ng becausethat's how the free enterprise system works. Now, with respect toFannie Mae, what Sen ator McCa in did n't men tio n is the fact that thisbill that he talked about was n't his own bill. He jumped on it a yearafter it had been introduced and it never got passed. An d I never promoted Fannie Mae. In fact, Sen ator McCai n's campaig n chairma n's firm was a lobbyist on behalf of Fannie Mae, not me. So --but, look, you're not interested in hearing politicians fin gers. What you're in terested in is tryi ng to figure out, how is this poin ti nggoing to impact you? This is not the end of the process; this is thebeg inning of the process. And that's why it's going to be so importa ntfor us to work with homeowners to make sure that they can stay intheir homes. The secretary already has the power to do t hat in the rescue package, but it has n't bee n exercised yet. And the next preside nt has to make sure that the n ext Treasury secretary isthinking about how to strengthen you as a home buyer,homeowner, and not simply think about bailing out banks on WallStreet.TOM: Sen ator Obama, time for a discussi on. I'm going to beg in withyou as ayou. Are you saying to Mr. Clark (ph) and to the other members of the American television audienee that the American economy is going to get much worse before it gets better and they ought to beeffectively, if we stabilize the housing market -- which I believe can, if we go out and buy up these bad loa ns, so that people can have a n ew mortgage at the n ew value of their home -- I think if we get ridprepared for that?OBAMA: No, I am con fide nt about the America n economy. But we are going to have to have some leadership from Washington on ly sets out much better regulati ons for the finan cial system. The problem is we still have a archaic, 20th-ce ntury regulatory system for that not21st-ce ntury finan cial markets. We're going to have to coord in ate with other coun tries to make sure that whatever acti ons we take wor But most importa ntly, we're going to have to help ordinary families be able to stay in their homes, make sure that they can pay their bills, deal with critical issues like health care and en ergy, and we're going to have to change the culture in Washington so that lobbyists and special interests aren't driving the process and your voi ces aren'tbeing drow ned out. TOM: Sen ator McCa in, in all can dor, do you think the economy isgoing to get worse before it gets better? MCCAIN: I th ink it depe nds on what we do. I thi nkif we actweof the crony ism and special in terest in flue nee in Wash ington so we can act more effectively. My frien d, I'd like you to see the letter that a group of sen ators and I wrote warni ng exactly of this crisis. Sen atorObama's name was not on that letter. The point is -- the point is that we can fix our economy. America ns' workers are the best in the world. They're the fun dame ntal aspect of America's economy. Th most inno vative. They're the best -- they're most -- have best -- we're the best exporters. We're the best importers. They're most effective. They are thebest workers in the world. And we've got to give them a cha nee. They've got -- we've got to give them a cha nee to do their best again. And they are the innocent bystanders here in what biggest financial crisis and challenge of our time. We can do it.TOM: Thank you, Senator McCain. We're going to continue Section F, as it turns out. Senator Obama, this is a question from you from Theresa Fin ch. Theresa ?QUESTION: How can we trust either of you with our mo both parties got -- got us into this global econo mic crisis?OBAMA: Well, look, I understand your frustration and your cynicism, because while you've bee n carry ing out your resp on sibilities -- most're theis theover inwhe nof the people here, you've got a family budget. If less money is coming in, you end up making cuts. Maybe you don't go out to dinner as much. Maybe you put off buying a new car. That's not whathappe ns in Wash ington. And you're right. There is a lot of blame to go around. But I think it's important just to remember a little bit of history. Whe n George Bush came into office, we had surpluses. AndBush came into office, our debt -- nationaldebt was aroundtrillion. It's now over $10 trillion. We've almost doubled it. And while it's true that n obody's completely innocent here, we have had over the last eight years the biggest in creases in deficit spe nding and n atio nal debt in our history. And Sen ator McCai n voted for four out of five of those George Bush budgets. So here's what I would do. I'm going to spe nd some money on the key issues that we've got to work on. You know, you may have seen your health care premiums go up. We've got to reform health care to help you and your budget. We aregoing to have to deal with en ergy because we can't keep on borrow ing from the Chinese and sending money to Saudi Arabia. We are mortgag ing our childre n's future. We've got to have a differe nt en ergypla n. We've got to in vest in college affordability. So we're going to have to make some in vestme nts, but we've also got to make spe ndingnow we have half-a-trillion-dollardeficit annu ally. When George$5socuts. And what I've proposed, you'll hear Senator McCain say, well, he's proposing a whole bunch of new spending, but actually cutting more than I'm spending so that it will be a net spending cut. The key is whether or not we've got priorities that are working for youWashington lately, and that's mostly lobbyists and special interests. We've got to put an end to that.TOM: Sen ator McCa in?MCCAIN: Well, Theresa (ph), thank you. And I ca n see why you feelthat cynicism and mistrust, because the system in Washington broke n. And I have bee n a con siste nt reformer. I have advocated an take n on the special in terests, whether they be the big money people by reach ing across the aisle and worki ng with Sen ator Fein gold campaign finance reform, whether it being a variety of other issues, worki ng with Sen ator Lieberma n on tryi ng to address climate cha nge.I have a clear record of bipartisanship. The situation today cries out for bipartisanship. Sen ator Obama has n ever take n on his leaders of his party on a si ngle issue. And we n eed to reform. And so let's look atour records as well as our rhetoric. That's really part of your mistrusthere. And now I suggest that maybe you go to some of these orga ni zati ons that are the watchdogs of what we do, like the Citize ns Against Gover nment Waste or the Nati onalTaxpayers Union or these other organizations that watch us all the time. I don't expect you to watch every vote. And you know what you'll find? This is the most liberal big-spe nding record in the Un ited States Sen ate. I have fought aga inst excessive spe nding and outrages. I have fought to reduce the earmarks and elimi nate them. Do you know that Sen ator Obama hasvoted for -- is proposing $860 billion of new spending now? New spe nding. Do you know that he voted for every in crease in spe nding that I saw come across the floor of the Un ited States Sen ate while we were work ing to elim in ate these pork barrel earmarks? He votedI'm as opposed to those who have been dictatingthe policy inisonfor n early a billi on dollars in pork barrel earmark projects, i nclud ing, bythe way, $3 million for an overhead projector at a planetarium in Chicago, Illinois. My friends, do we need to spend that kind ofmon ey? I think you have to look at my record and you have to look at his. Then you have to look at our proposals for our econo my, not $860billion in new spending, but for the kinds of reforms that keeppeople in their jobs, get middle-in come America ns work ing aga in, and gett ing our economy moving aga in. You're going to be exam ining our proposals toni ght and in the future, and en ergy in depe ndence is a way to do that, is one of them. And drilling offshore and nuclear power are two vital eleme nts of that. And r ve bee n support ing thoseand I know how to fix this econo my, and elim in ate our depe ndence on foreig n oil, and stop sending $700 billi on a year overseas.TOM: We've run out of time. We have this one-minute ( period going on here. There are new economic realities that every one in this hall and across this country un dersta nds there are going to have to be some choices made. Health energy policies, and entitlement reform, what are going priorities in what order? Which of those will be your highest priority your first year in office and which will follow in sequenee McCai n?MCCAIN: The three priorities were health...TOM: The three -- health care, en ergy, and en titleme nt reform: Soci Security and Medicare .In what order would you put them in terms o priorities?MCCAIN: I thi nk you can work on all three at o nee, Tom. I thi nk it'svery important that reform our entitlement programs. My friends, we are not going to be able to provide the same ben efit for present-day workers that we are going -- that present-day retireesout there that policies, o be yourSen atorhave today. We're going to have to sit down across the table,Republica n and Democrat, as we did in 1983 betwee n Ron ald Reaga nand Tip O'Neill. I know how to do that. I have a clear record ofreaching across the aisle, whether it be Joe Lieberman or Russ Fein gold or Ted Kenn edy or others. That's my clear record. We canwork on nu clear power pla nts. Build a whole bunch of them, createmillio ns of new jobs. We have to have all of the above, alter nativefuels, wind, tide, solar, n atural gas, clea n coal tech no logy. All of thesthings we can do as America ns and we can take on this missi on andwe can overcome it.My friends, some of this $700 billion ends up in the hands of terroristorga ni zati ons. As far as health care is concern ed, obviously, every oneis struggling to make sure that they can afford their premiums andthat they can have affordable and available health care. That's the n ext issue. But we can do them all at on ce. There's no -- and we haveto do them all at once. All three you mentioned are c ompelli ng national security requirements.TOM: rm trying to play by the rules that you all established. Onemin ute for discussi on. Sen ator Obama, if you would give us your listof priorities, there are some real questi ons about whether everyth ingcan be done at once.OBAMA: We're going to have to prioritize, just like a family has toprioritize. Now, I've listed the things that I think have to be at the top of the list. En ergy we have to deal with today, because you're pay ing$3.80 here in Nashville for gasoline, and it could go up. And it's astrain on your family budget, but it's also bad for our national security, because coun tries like Russia and Ven ezuela and, you know,in some cases, coun tries like Iran, are ben efit ing from higher oil prices. So we've got to deal with that right away. That's why I've called for an in vestme nt of $15 billi on a year over 10 years. Our goal shouldbe, in 10 year's time, we are free of dependence on Middle Eastern oil.And we can do it. Now, whe n JFK said we're going to the Moon in 10 years, n obody was surehow to do it, but we un derstood that, if the America n people make a decisi on to do somethin g, it gets done. So that would be priority nu mber one.Health care is priority number two, because that broken health caresystem is bad not only for families, but it's making our bus in essesless competitive. And, nu mber three, we've got to deal with educati on so that our young people are competitive in a global economy. Butjust one point I want to make, Tom. Senator McCain mentioned looking at our records. We doneed to look at our records. Senator McCain likes to talk about earmarks a lot. And that'simportant. Iwant to go line by line through every item in the federal budget and elim in ate programsthat don't work and make sure that those that do work, work better and cheaper. But understa nd this: We also have to look at where some of our tax reve nues are going. So whe nSen atorMcCa in proposes a $300 billio n tax cut, a continu ati on not only of theBush tax cuts, but an additi onal $200 billi on that he's going to give to big corporati on s, i nclud ing big oil compa ni es, $4 billio n worth, that's money out of the system. And so we've got to prioritize both our spe nding side and our tax policies to make sure that they're work ing for you. That's what I'm going to do as preside nt of the Un ited States.TOM: All right, gen tleme n, I want to just remi nd you one more timeabout time. We're going to have a larger deficit than the federalgovernment does if we don't get this under control here before too long. Senator McCain, for you, we have our first question from theInternet tonight. A child of the Depression, 78-year-old Fiora (ph)from Chicago.Question: Since World War II, we have never been asked to sacrifice anything to help our coun try, except the blood of our heroic men and wome n. As preside nt, what sacrifices -- sacrifices will you ask every America n to make to help restore the America n dream and to get out。

I'm Candy Crowley from CNN's "State of the Union." We are here for the second presidential debate, a town hall, sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates.CROWLEY: The Gallup organization chose 82 uncommitted voters from the New York area. Their questions will drive the night. My goal is to give the conversation direction and to ensure questions get answered.The questions are known to me and my team only. Neither the commission, nor the candidates have seen them. I hope to get to as many questions as possible.CROWLEY: And because I am the optimistic sort, I'm sure the candidates will oblige by keeping their answers concise and on point.Each candidate has as much as two minutes to respond to a common question, and there will be a two-minute follow-up. The audience here in the hall has agreed to be polite and attentive - no cheering or booing or outbursts of any sort. We will set aside that agreement just this once to welcome President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney.(APPLAUSE)Gentlemen, thank you both for joining us here tonight. We have a lot of folks who've been waiting all day to talk to you, so I want to get right to it. Governor Romney, as you know, you won the coin toss, so the first question will go to you. And I want to turn to a first-time voter, Jeremy Epstein, who has a question for you.QUESTION: Mr. President, Governor Romney, as a 20-year-old college student,all I hear from professors, neighbors and others is that when I graduate, I will have little chance to get employment. What can you say to reassure me, but more importantly my parents, that I will be able to sufficiently support myself after I graduate?ROMNEY: Thank you, Jeremy. I appreciate your - your question, and thank you for being here this evening and to all of those from Nassau County that have come, thank you for your time. Thank you to Hofstra University and to Candy Crowley for organizing and leading this - this event.Thank you, Mr. President, also for being part of this - this debate.College kids all over this country. I was in Pennsylvania with someone who had just graduated - this was in Philadelphia - and she said, "I've got my degree. I can't find a job. I've got three part-time jobs. They're just barely enough to pay for my food and pay for an apartment. I can't begin to pay back my student loans."So what we have to do is two things. We have to make sure that we make it easier for kids to afford college.ROMNEY: And also make sure that when they get out of college, there's a job. When I was governor of Massachusetts, to get a high school degree, you had to pass an exam. If you graduated in the top quarter of your class, we gave you a John and Abigail Adams scholarship, four years tuition free in the college of your choice in Massachusetts, it's a public institution.I want to make sure we keep our Pell grant program growing. We're also going to have our loan program, so that people are able to afford school. But the key thing is to make sure you can get a job when you get out of school. And what's happened over the last four years has been very, very hard for America's young people. I want you to be able to get a job.I know what it takes to get this economy going. With half of college kids graduating this year without a college - excuse me, without a job. And without a college level job, that's just unacceptable.And likewise you've got more and more debt on your back. So more debt and less jobs. I'm going to change that. I know what it takes to create good jobs again. I know what it takes to make sure that you have the kind of opportunity you deserve. And kids across this country are going to recognize, we're bringing back an economy. It's not going to be like the last four years. The middle-class has been crushed over the last four years, and jobs have been too scarce. I know what it takes to bring them back, and I'm going to do that, and make sure that when you graduate - when do you graduate?QUESTION: 2014.ROMNEY: 2014. When you come out in 2014, I presume I'm going to be president. I'm going to make sure you get a job. Thanks Jeremy. Yeah, you bet. CROWLEY: Mr. President?OBAMA: Jeremy, first of all, your future is bright. And the fact that you're making an investment in higher education is critical. Not just to you, but to the entire nation. Now, the most important thing we can do is to make sure that we are creating jobs in this country. But not just jobs, good paying jobs. Ones that can support a family.OBAMA: And what I want to do, is build on the five million jobs that we've created over the last 30 months in the private sector alone. And there are a bunch of things we can do to make sure yourfuture is bright.Number one, I want to build manufacturing jobs in this country again. Now when Governor Romney said we should let Detroit go bankrupt. I said we're going to bet on American workers and theAmerican auto industry and it's come surging back.I want to do that in industries, not just in Detroit, but all across the country andthat means we change our tax code so we're giving incentives to companies that are investing here in the United States and creating jobs here.It also means we're helping them and small businesses to export all around the world to new markets.Number two, we've got to make sure that we have the best education system in the world. And the fact that you're going to college is great, but I want everybody to get a great education andwe've worked hard to make sure that student loans are available for folks like you, but I also want to make sure that community colleges are offering slots for workers to get retrained for the jobs that are out there right now and the jobs of the future.Number three, we've got to control our own energy. Now, not only oil and natural gas, which we've been investing in; but also, we've got to make sure we're building the energy source of the future, not just thinking about next year, but ten years from now, 20 years from now. That's why we've invested in solar and wind and biofuels, energy efficient cars.We've got to reduce our deficit, but we've got to do it in a balanced way. Asking the wealthy to pay a little bit more along with cuts so that we can invest in education like yours. And let's take the money that we've been spending on war over the last decade to rebuild America, roads, bridges schools. We do those things, not only is your future going to be bright but America's future is going to bright as well. CROWLEY: Let me ask you for more immediate answer and begin with Mr. Romney just quickly what - what can you do? We're looking at a situation where 40 percent of the unemployed have been unemployed have been unemployed for six months or more. They don't have the two years that Jeremy has.美国总统大选第二场辩论（中文字幕完整版）（转自CNN）-(-厦门韦博英语培训提供温馨提示：我们厦门韦博英语分级别，分层级进行教学，适合不同英语基础的学员学习，如果您想报名学习的课程，我们会为您免费提供国际顶级口语水平测试。
