第一篇：2012美國總統(tǒng)大選奧巴馬勝選演講(演講稿)

Thank you.Thank you.Thank you so much.謝謝，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.200多年前，美國第一個殖民地掌握了自己的命運(yùn)，開始了這個國家的前進(jìn)之旅。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.美國的前進(jìn)都是因?yàn)槟銈儭Ｒ驗(yàn)槟銈儾粩嘀厣昴欠N幫助我們在過去戰(zhàn)勝了戰(zhàn)事及經(jīng)濟(jì)頹勢的精神。這種精神將我們的國家拖出絕望的深淵，將其推向希望的彼岸。我們始終相信：每一個人都可以追求自己的夢想；美國是一個大家庭；團(tuán)結(jié)起來我們就能勝利，分裂只能導(dǎo)致我們失敗。

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.今夜，在這場選舉中，你們提醒我們：盡管我們的道路漫長而艱巨，但是我們已經(jīng)重塑信心，予以反擊。我們在內(nèi)心中深深的知道最棒的美國將要來臨。

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.我想感謝每一位參與選舉的美國民眾。不管你是從第一天就投票了，還是一直等待了很長的時間才投的票（當(dāng)然了，我們要解決這個排隊(duì)投票的問題）；不管你是自己去投票點(diǎn)投的票，還是打電話投的票；不管你是投了給我，還是投給羅姆尼；你的聲音都被大家聽到了，并且你對我們國家做出了某些改變。

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 honour 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.剛剛我跟羅姆尼通了電話，我祝賀他和保羅在這個艱苦卓絕的戰(zhàn)役中所取得的勝利。我們這場戰(zhàn)役十分激烈，但是這正是因?yàn)槲覀兩類壑@個國家，并且我們十分在意它的未來。羅姆尼的整個家庭，孫子輩，孩子輩，都通過公共服務(wù)在支持著美國。我們應(yīng)該在今晚對這種精神表示尊敬和贊揚(yáng)。未來這幾周我也希望和羅姆尼一起來討論怎樣使我們的國家不斷前進(jìn)。

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.我要感謝我過去四年的朋友和搭檔——美國的快樂戰(zhàn)士、美國歷史上最好的副總統(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.當(dāng)然，如果沒有20年前跟我結(jié)婚的妻子，今天我就不會站在這里。我要跟大家說，米歇爾，我比以前更加愛你，我更加自豪，因?yàn)槲铱吹饺珖嗣褚彩譄釔勰氵@位第一夫人，我感到十分自豪。

Sasha and Maliato every hill, to every valley.You lifted me up the whole day, and I will always be grateful for everything that you've done and all the incredible work that you've put in.你們都是我的家人。不管你們做了什么，不管你們來自哪里，你們一定會記得今天晚上我們所創(chuàng)的歷史。你們會一直記得有一個總統(tǒng)，他一直心懷感激。謝謝你們一路以來對我的相信，不管我們路上遇到的是山巒還是低谷，是你們讓我堅(jiān)持了下來。你們所做的一切我都心懷感激，并將永遠(yuǎn)鳴謝。

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 – or saw folks working late at 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候看起來可能很瑣碎，甚至愚蠢。不少批評家借此攻擊政治不過是利益集團(tuán)沖突或是用來自我炫耀。但要是你們真有機(jī)會，去和參加競選集會的人們聊一聊，去和

體育場排隊(duì)投票的選民聊一聊，或是親眼看一看那些遠(yuǎn)離家人徹夜工作的志愿者們，你們的印象定會有所改觀。

You'll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organiser 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.一個大學(xué)生競選活動組織者，話語滿是堅(jiān)韌決心，他付出艱辛努力讀完大學(xué)，而現(xiàn)在希望每一個孩子都能享有和他一樣的機(jī)會。一名志愿者，言辭中藏不住驕傲，她挨家挨戶助選拉票只因哥哥終于找到工作，附近的汽車廠增加了班次給了他機(jī)會。

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.一名軍嫂談話中洋溢著愛國之情，她為助選打電話直到深夜，只是為了確保那些曾經(jīng)為國家拋頭顱撒灑血的軍人回家之后，無需再為一份工作，一個住處，再次走上―戰(zhàn)場‖。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, 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.這才是我們行動的理由。這才是政治的真諦。這才是大選如此重要的原因。選舉絕不渺小，它至關(guān)重要，舉足輕重。在一個擁有3億國民的國家，民主有時候會有些吵鬧、混亂和繁復(fù)。只因我們每個人都有自己的主張，都有深信的信仰。當(dāng)我們經(jīng)歷艱難時刻，當(dāng)我們要作為一個國家做出重大決定，自然會有爭議，會有情感的表達(dá)。這不會在一夜之間改變，也不應(yīng)改變。這些爭論正是我們自由的明證。我們絕不應(yīng)忘記，就在此時此刻，在遙遠(yuǎn)的國度無數(shù)人正為這―爭論‖的權(quán)利舍身赴險，他們想要的正是像我們這樣投票的權(quán)利。But despite all our differences, most of us share certain hopes for America's future.盡管我們有許多不同，但我們中的大多數(shù)對美國的未來卻有著共同的期望。

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 of the good jobs and new businesses that follow.我們期望在這個國家，孩子們能上最好的學(xué)校，有最好的老師，我們期望這個國家能繼承她的光榮傳統(tǒng)，在技術(shù)和創(chuàng)新領(lǐng)域培養(yǎng)世界范圍的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者。而這些將伴隨著好工作，新生意。We want our children to live in an America that isn't burdened by debt, that isn't weakened up by inequality, that isn't threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet.我們絕不希望孩子們未來生活在一個受困于債務(wù)、不平等以及氣候變暖的美國。

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.我們希望傳承的是一個安全而備受尊重的美國。這個國家擁有世界上有史以來最強(qiáng)大的軍事力量，但同樣也有信心為這個戰(zhàn)亂時代帶來和平，許諾為每一個人帶去自由和尊嚴(yán)。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 an entrepreneur, a diplomat or even a president.我們相信美國應(yīng)該是一個慷慨、富有同情心而包容的國家，歡迎每一個心懷夢想的移民。不管是在我們的學(xué)校接受教育對我們的國旗宣誓效忠的移民兒女，還是夢想改變自己命運(yùn)的街頭男孩，亦或是希望成為醫(yī)生、科學(xué)家、企業(yè)家、外交官或者美國總統(tǒng)的木匠家孩子。That's the – 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.這才是我們想要的未來。這才是我們共同的愿景。這才是我們前進(jìn)的方向。

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, resolve all our problems or substitute for the painstaking work of building consensus and making the difficult compromises needed to move this country forward.然而關(guān)于如何完成這段旅程我們時常產(chǎn)生分歧，甚至?xí)ち覜_突。正如兩百年來的歷史，這一過程并非一蹴而就，更不是一帆風(fēng)順。懷有共同的希望和夢想并不能解決全部問題和僵局，也不能代替國家前進(jìn)所需要的艱苦工作——建立共識，作出妥協(xié)。

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.但是這些共識是我們的起點(diǎn)。經(jīng)濟(jì)正在逐漸恢復(fù)，十年戰(zhàn)爭也正要告一段落，漫長的競選也將走到終點(diǎn)。不管你是否曾投票與我，我都愿意聆聽你們的聲音。我從你們身上受益良多，是你們讓我成為更好的總統(tǒng)。正是因?yàn)槟銈儕^斗和故事，我才能滿懷對未來工作的堅(jiān)定決心和振奮之情，重回白宮。

Tonight you voted for action, not politics as usual.You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours.今晚不同與往常，你們并不是為政治而投票，你們是在為改革與實(shí)際行動而投票。你們的選票意味著給予機(jī)會讓政府為你們的工作崗位而服務(wù)，而非為政府自身服務(wù)。

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.而在未來的日子里，我期待著與兩黨領(lǐng)袖共同應(yīng)對挑戰(zhàn)，解決難題——努力減少赤字，改革稅收制度，完善移民政策，減輕對石油進(jìn)口的依賴……還有許多難題在我們面前。But that doesn't mean your work is done.The role of citizens 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.但你們的職責(zé)也還未完成。在美國民主制度之下，身為一個公民的職責(zé)并不單純意味著為選舉而投票。而對此，公民職責(zé)并不在于―美國能為我做什么‖，而是在于―我能為美國做什么‖，在于如何齊心協(xié)力戰(zhàn)勝困難和挫折，服務(wù)自我。這也正是美國的思想根基。

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 envy 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, so that 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 America great.美國是全球擁有最多財(cái)富的國家，但這并不是美國人民富有的真正原因。我們擁有最強(qiáng)大的軍隊(duì)，但這并不是我們強(qiáng)壯的真正原因。我們擁有最優(yōu)秀的高等教育和文化成果，但這并不是吸引世界各國人民涌向美國的真正原因。美國之所以與眾不同，是因?yàn)槟軌虬荻嘣募~帶將我們聯(lián)系在一起，是因?yàn)槲覀兿嘈疟舜藫碛泄餐拿\(yùn)，是因?yàn)槲覀兿嘈牛挥袨樗烁冻觯ハ鄮椭拍軐?shí)現(xiàn)國家的進(jìn)步，才能為后代創(chuàng)造更美好的未來。前人曾為自由奮斗甚至是獻(xiàn)出生命，而只有責(zé)任與權(quán)利的結(jié)合，只有愛、寬容、責(zé)任感及愛國之情能使我們更好地實(shí)現(xiàn)、維護(hù)這份來之不易的自由。這才是美國的偉大之處。

I am hopeful tonight because I have seen this 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 neighbours and in the workers who would rather cut back their hours than see a friend lose a job.I've seen it in the soldiers who re-enlist 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 New Jersey and New York, where leaders from every party and level of

government have swept aside their differences to help a community rebuild from the wreckage of a terrible storm.在今晚，我的內(nèi)心充滿希望，因?yàn)槲乙娮C了美國的這一種精神。我看到商人們寧可給自己減薪也絕不解雇員工，我看到工人們寧可減短工時也絕不讓同事下崗。還有那些在戰(zhàn)事中接受截肢后仍然堅(jiān)持延長服役的士兵們，還有那些因擁有同伴的支持而義無反顧沖向黑暗與危險的海豹突擊隊(duì)?wèi)?zhàn)士們，還有那些放下成見與分歧為桑迪颶風(fēng)救災(zāi)重建而忙碌在東海岸的領(lǐng)袖們——我在他們身上看到了美國的精神。

And I saw it just the other day in Mentor, Ohio, where a father told the story of his eight-year-old daughter whose long battle with leukaemia nearly cost their family everything had it not been for healthcare 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.不僅如此，我還記得俄亥俄州一位為了給8歲女兒治療白血病而傾盡所有的父親，全賴醫(yī)療改革使得他能夠獲得醫(yī)療保險的援助。我曾經(jīng)與這位父親交談，還有幸去看望了這位8歲的小女孩。當(dāng)這位父親向人們敘述著與病魔斗爭的故事，已為人父母的在場觀眾都濕了眼眶——因?yàn)槲覀兌贾溃呐畠阂部赡苁俏覀冏约旱呐畠骸６掖_信，每位父母都真心祝福著這個小女孩能夠擁有明媚的未來，美國因此而自豪。而作為美國總統(tǒng)，我為這個國家自豪。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.盡管我們歷盡艱辛，盡管我們的政府并不完美，但此時此刻，對于未來，對于美國，我的內(nèi)心卻從未如此充滿希冀——而在此我請求你們堅(jiān)守住這份希冀。

I'm not talking about blind optimism, the kind of hope that just ignores the enormity of the tasks ahead or the road blocks that stand in our path.I'm not talking about the wishful idealism that 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.這一份希冀并不是盲目樂觀，并不是無視艱難，并不是逃避責(zé)任。我也并不想鼓吹過度的理想主義，并不是鼓勵無動于衷或是一味逃避。我一向堅(jiān)信，只有守住這份希望，美國才能有勇氣向前邁進(jìn)，全力奮斗。

America, I believe we can build on the progress we've made and continue to fight for new jobs and new opportunities and new security for the middle class.I believe we can keep the promise of our founding, 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, abled, disabled, gay or straight.You can make it here in America if you're willing to try.我堅(jiān)信，美國能夠繼續(xù)鞏固自我，爭取更多的工作崗位和機(jī)遇，讓中產(chǎn)階級的生活狀況得到改善。我堅(jiān)信，我們能夠延續(xù)偉大的前人們的承諾——無論你是誰，無論你來自哪里，無論你擁有什么膚色，只要努力奮斗便能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)自我，無論你是黑人或是白人、西班牙裔、亞裔或是印第安人，無論年少或年長，無論貧窮或富有，無論健全或殘疾，無論是同性戀或是非同性戀——只要你愿意去嘗試，你就能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)自我。

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 collection of red states and blue states.We are, and forever will be, the United States of America.我堅(jiān)信，美國人民仍然把握著自己的未來，即使政見分歧嚴(yán)重，我們?nèi)匀粨碛泄餐男脑福覀儾]有在冷嘲熱諷中失去希望。美國并不只是個人雄心壯志的簡單總和，美國并不只是民主黨和共和黨兩個陣營的簡單總和。我們現(xiàn)在是，并將在未來永遠(yuǎn)都是美利堅(jiān)合眾國。And together, with your help and God's grace, we will continue 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.而在此，在你們的辛勤付出之下，我們將繼續(xù)前行并告訴世界為何美利堅(jiān)合眾國是最偉大的國家。感謝你們！

第二篇：08年美國總統(tǒng)大選勝選奧巴馬演講全文美國的變革

08年美國總統(tǒng)大選勝選奧巴馬演講全文美國的變革 Obama: 奧巴馬：

Hello, Chicago.您好，芝加哥。

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.如果還有人仍在懷疑美國是否是一個一切皆有可能的國度的話，如果還有人仍在疑慮我們美國的締造者的夢想是否還存在于我們這個時代的話，如果還有人仍在質(zhì)疑我們民主的力量的話，今晚你就可以得到答案。

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.這個答案早已經(jīng)印在了到處懸掛在學(xué)校和教堂的競選條幅上，人們隨處可見；這些人們已經(jīng)等待了三四個小時，對于他們當(dāng)中的大多數(shù)，這是有生以來第一次經(jīng)歷這樣的過程，因?yàn)樗麄儓?jiān)信這一時刻注定與眾不同，而這種不同便有可能源自他們所發(fā)出的聲音。

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.這個答案出自這些人之口，無論是青年還是老年，窮人還是富人，民主黨還是共和黨，黑人還是白人，拉丁裔、亞裔還是美國本土人，同性戀者還是異性戀者，殘疾人還是非殘疾人——他們向世界發(fā)出了這樣的信息——

We are, and always will be, the United States of America.我們從來不分紅色之州和藍(lán)色之州，我們永遠(yuǎn)都是美利堅(jiān)合眾國。

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.這個答案告訴了那些一直以來充滿焦慮、恐懼和懷疑的人們，我們可以將雙手放在歷史的轉(zhuǎn)折點(diǎn)上，將它再次帶向充滿希望的美好明天

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.這一刻我們已經(jīng)等待了太久，但是今晚，由于我們在這一決定性的時刻所作出的選擇，美國便迎來了它嶄新的一刻。

A little bit earlier this evening, I received an extraordinarily gracious call from Sen.McCain.今天傍晚稍早的時候，我接到麥凱恩參議員一個特別親切的電話。

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.他在這場漫長而艱難的選舉中一直努力著，而他為他所熱愛的國家所付出的努力甚至更加艱辛而久遠(yuǎn)。可能我們當(dāng)中的很多人甚至都無法想象，麥凱恩議員從何時便開始為我們的國家奉獻(xiàn)自己，而我們卻早已享受到了這位勇敢無私的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者為國家所做出的貢獻(xiàn)。對于他和佩林所付出的努力，我表示衷心的感謝，同時我也期待著，能夠和他們一同努力，共同實(shí)現(xiàn)我們這幾個月來所做出的承諾。

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 the train home to Delaware, the vice president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.我要感謝我的競選伙伴，新當(dāng)選的美國副總統(tǒng)喬·拜登，這一路走來，他始終遵循著自己內(nèi)心深處的那個聲音，他始終代表著那些和他一起在斯克蘭頓街邊長大，一起坐著火車回到故鄉(xiāng)特拉華州的人們的聲音。

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.如果沒有過去這16年來摯友的支持，沒有穩(wěn)定的家庭和對生活的愛，沒有我們國家的下一位第一夫人，米歇爾·奧巴馬，今晚我將不可能站在這里。

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.馬莉婭和薩莎，我也非常愛你們，你們肯定也沉浸在即將入住白宮的喜悅之中。

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.然而，我的外祖母已永遠(yuǎn)離開了我們，但我知道她也正和所有支持我的家人一樣在看著我。我今晚非常想念他們，而且知道我欠他們的太多。

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.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。

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.和我的競選顧問大衛(wèi)-Plouffe，此次競選的無名英雄，我認(rèn)為，是他打造了美利堅(jiān)合眾國歷史上最好的-最好的政治運(yùn)動。

To my chief strategist David Axelrod who's been a partner with me every step of the way.我的首席策略師大衛(wèi)——阿克塞爾羅德，在一個合作伙伴與我的每一步。

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.最佳運(yùn)動隊(duì)以往任何時候都聚集在歷史上的政治你這一點(diǎn)，我永遠(yuǎn)感謝您什么犧牲得到工作要做。But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to.It belongs to you.It belongs to you.但最重要的是，我永遠(yuǎn)不會忘記這場勝利的所有者，勝利屬于你們，勝利屬于你們。

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.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.我從來沒有對可能的候選人，這個辦公室。我們沒有開始多少錢或許多簽注。我們的運(yùn)動是不能孵化的大廳華盛頓。它開始在后院得梅因和客廳的和諧與前面門廊的查爾斯頓。這是由工作男性和女性誰挖成小儲蓄，他們不得不放棄5美元和10美元和20美元的事業(yè)。

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.它成長的力量的年輕人誰拒絕他們神話一代人的冷漠誰離開他們的家園和他們的家屬就業(yè)提供一點(diǎn)工資和少睡覺。

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.它提請強(qiáng)度從不那么誰年輕人冒著嚴(yán)寒和酷暑敲門，門完美的陌生人，并從數(shù)以百萬計(jì)的美國人誰自愿組織和證明，兩個多世紀(jì)后，人民的政府由人民，為人民還沒有滅亡的地球。

This is your victory.這是你們的勝利。

And I know you didn't do this just to win an election.And I know you didn't do it for me.我知道你們沒有這樣做只是為了贏得大選。我知道你沒有做到這一點(diǎn)對我來說。

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.你這樣做，是因?yàn)槟忝靼兹蝿?wù)的艱巨性是擺在面前。即使在我們慶祝今晚，我們知道，明天的挑戰(zhàn)將是最大的我們的有生之年-兩場戰(zhàn)爭，地球處于危險，最嚴(yán)重的金融危機(jī)的一個世紀(jì)。

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.即使我們今晚站在這里，我們知道有勇敢的美國人起床在沙漠伊拉克和阿富汗山區(qū)冒著生命危險為我們。

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.有父親和母親誰將躺在清醒后的孩子入睡和不知道他們會作抵押或支付其醫(yī)生的法案或儲存足夠的孩子的大學(xué)教育。There's new energy to harness, new jobs to be created, new schools to build, and threats to meet, alliances to repair.有新能源利用，新的工作崗位要建立新的學(xué)校建設(shè)和威脅，以滿足，聯(lián)盟，以修理。

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.未來的路還很長，而且我們正在艱難地攀登在陡峭的山坡之上。我們未必能夠在一年或是在一個總統(tǒng)任期之內(nèi)達(dá)到目標(biāo)，但美國肯定可以。我們肯定可以達(dá)到目標(biāo)，此前我從未有今天晚上的如此信心。

I promise you, we as a people will get there.我向你們承諾，我們肯定可以。

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.當(dāng)然，這一過程肯定還會出現(xiàn)挫折，甚至是不成功的開始。我作為總統(tǒng)所做出的決策，肯定也會有許多人并不贊同。我們知道政府并不能解決所有問題。

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.但我也會向你們誠懇地交待我們所面臨的挑戰(zhàn)。我會認(rèn)真聽從你們的建議，尤其是意見不一致的時候。總之，我邀請你們加入到國家再建的工作之中。221年來，我們的國家就是這樣一磚一瓦，一點(diǎn)一滴地建造起來的。

What began 21 months ago in the depths of winter cannot end on this autumn night.我們開始于21個月前深冬，不會結(jié)束在今年的這個秋天的夜晚結(jié)束。

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.這僅僅是勝利而不是我們所尋求的變化。這是唯一的機(jī)會，我們做出的改變。并能不會發(fā)生，如果我們回到這樣的。

It can't happen without you, without a new spirit of service, a new spirit of sacrifice.它不能發(fā)生沒有你，沒有一種新的精神服務(wù)，新的犧牲精神。

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.因此，讓我們拿出一個新的愛國主義精神，責(zé)任感，在我們每個人都決心在球場和努力，并期待后，不僅自己，而且對方。

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.讓我們記住，如果這個金融危機(jī)告訴我們什么，那就是我們不能有一個蓬勃發(fā)展的同時華爾街主街受到影響。

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.在這個國家，我們的興衰，作為一個民族，作為一個人。讓我們抵制誘惑，回到屬于同一黨派和雞毛蒜皮的小事和不成熟有毒害我們的政治這么久。

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.讓我們銘記，是這個州的人第一次將共和黨的旗幟扛進(jìn)了白宮，(共和黨)是一個將價值觀建立在自信、個人自由以及國家團(tuán)結(jié)基礎(chǔ)上的政黨。

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.我們所有人都信奉這一價值。民主黨今晚獲得了巨大的勝利，但我們未來將用謙卑和決心來彌補(bǔ)競選過程中產(chǎn)生的裂痕。

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.正如林肯所說，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。

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.對于那些支持我的美國人，以及那些沒有將選票投給我的人，我傾聽到了你們的聲音，我需要得到你們的幫助，而我也同樣是你們的總統(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 the world, our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand.和所有觀看今晚從超出了我們的海岸，來自議會和宮殿，那些誰是圍著收音機(jī)中被遺忘的角落的世界，我們的故事是獨(dú)特的，但我們的命運(yùn)是共同的，新的曙光美國領(lǐng)導(dǎo)在手。

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.那些-那些誰將世界撕裂了：我們將打敗你。這些誰尋求和平與安全的：我們支持你。對于所有那些疑惑美國的燈塔是否還會繼續(xù)明亮燃燒的人，今夜我們將再次證明，我們國家的力量并不是來源來我們的胳膊的臂力，也不是來源于我們的財(cái)富，而是源自于我們理念的持久力量。這些理念包括：民主、自由、機(jī)會以及堅(jiān)貞不屈的希望。

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.這是真正的天才合眾國：美國會發(fā)生變化。我們的工會可以完善。我們已經(jīng)取得了讓我們希望我們能夠而且必須實(shí)現(xiàn)的明天。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.這次選舉有許多優(yōu)勢，許多故事，會被告知幾代人。但是，這在我腦海今晚的約一個女人誰投她的選票在亞特蘭大。她就像數(shù)以百萬計(jì)的其他人誰站在線，使他們的聲音在這次選舉中除一件事：尼克松安庫珀是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.她出生的一代剛剛過去的奴役;當(dāng)時有沒有汽車在道路上或飛機(jī)在天空中;當(dāng)有人能像她一樣不參加表決的原因有兩個-因?yàn)樗且幻樱捎谒念伾つw。

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.今晚，我想所有的，她在整個看到她在美國的世紀(jì)-在心痛和希望;的斗爭和取得的;的時候，我們被告知，我們不能，和人民誰壓上與美國的信條：是我們能夠做到。

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.當(dāng)時婦女的聲音被壓制和他們的希望被駁回，她活著看到他們站起來，說出并達(dá)成的選票。是我們能夠做到。

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.當(dāng)有絕望中的塵埃和抑郁一碗全國的土地，她看到一個民族征服恐懼本身的新政，新的就業(yè)機(jī)會，一個新的共同使命感。是我們能夠做到。

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.當(dāng)炸彈落在我們的港口和暴政威脅世界，她在那里目睹了一代產(chǎn)生的偉大和民主是保存。是我們能夠做到。

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.她在那里的巴士蒙哥馬利，軟管在英國伯明翰，橋梁塞爾瑪和傳教士從亞特蘭大誰告訴人民，“我們克服。”是我們能夠做到。

A man touched down on the moon, a wall came down in Berlin, a world was connected by our own science and imagination.一名男子降落在月球上，墻上下來在柏林，世界是連接我們自己的科學(xué)和想象力。

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.今年，在這次選舉中，她談到她的手指到屏幕上，她和演員投票，因?yàn)?06年后，在美國，通過最好的時候和最黑暗的時間，她知道怎樣可以改變美國。

Yes we can.是我們能夠做到。

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?美國，我們來到迄今。我們已經(jīng)看到這么多。但有這么多事情要做。因此，今夜，讓我們反問一下我們自己，如果我們的孩子能夠活到下個世紀(jì)；如果我的女兒能夠幸運(yùn)地活得像安-尼克森-庫珀那樣長，他們將會看到什么樣的變化？我們那時將會取得什么樣的進(jìn)步？

This is our chance to answer that call.This is our moment.這是我們來回答問題的機(jī)會，這是我們的時刻。

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.這是我們的時代，要使我們的人民重新工作并將機(jī)會留給我們的子孫；重新恢復(fù)繁榮并促進(jìn)和平；回歸我們的美國夢想并重申一個基本事實(shí)--在眾人之中，我們也是其中一個；當(dāng)我們呼吸，當(dāng)我們充滿希望的時候，我們遭遇冷嘲熱諷和質(zhì)疑，那些人認(rèn)為我們無法做到。我們將用一句話來做出回應(yīng)：不，我們可以！

Thank you.God bless you.And may God bless the United States of America.謝謝您。上帝保佑你。愿上帝保佑美利堅(jiān)合眾國。

第三篇：2012奧巴馬勝選演講全文

奧巴馬2012年勝選演講---最美好的一切屬于未來

Thank you.Thank you.Thank you so much.Tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its own destiny to perfect our union moves forward.(Applause)

非常感謝你們。今夜，在當(dāng)年的殖民地贏得了決定自己命運(yùn)的權(quán)利200多年以后，讓美利堅(jiān)合眾國更加完美的任務(wù)又向前推進(jìn)了一步。

It moves forward because of you.It moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that triumphs over war a 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 will rise and fall together as one nation, and as one people.這一進(jìn)程是因?yàn)槟銈兌蚯巴七M(jìn)的，因?yàn)槟銈冊俅未_認(rèn)了那種使美國勝利克服了戰(zhàn)爭和蕭條的精神，那種使美國擺脫絕望的深淵并走向希望的最高點(diǎn)的精神，以及那種雖然我們每個人都在追求自己的個人夢想、但我們同屬一個美國大家庭、并作為一個國家和民族共同進(jìn)退的信仰。

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.(Applause)今夜，在此次選舉中，你們這些美國人民提醒我們，雖然我們的道路一直艱難，雖然我們的旅程一直漫長，但我們已經(jīng)讓自己振作起來，我們已經(jīng)發(fā)起反擊，我們在自己內(nèi)心深處知道，對美利堅(jiān)合眾國來說，最美好一切屬于未來。

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.(Applause)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.我想感謝所有參加此次選舉的美國人，無論你是首次參加選舉還是為投票曾長時間排隊(duì)等候。順便說一句，我們需要解決這些問題。無論你是到投票站投票還是發(fā)傳真投票，無論你選的是奧巴馬還是羅姆尼，你都讓別人聽到了自己的聲音，你都讓美國因你而不同。

I just spoke Governor Romney and I congratulated him and Congressman Ryan on a hard fought campaign.We may have battled fiercely, but it is only because we love this country deeply and we care so much about its future.From George and Lenore, to their son Mitt – the Romney family has chosen to give back to America through their public service and that is a legacy that we honor and applaud tonight.我要對羅姆尼州長說幾句話，我對他和保羅?萊恩在這次競爭激烈的選舉中的表現(xiàn)表示祝賀。我們可能爭奪得很激烈，但這僅僅是因?yàn)槲覀兩類壑@個國家以及我們?nèi)?此強(qiáng)烈地關(guān)心著它的未來。從喬治到勒諾到他們的兒子米特，羅姆尼家族選擇了通過公共服務(wù)來回報(bào)美國，那是一種我們今夜表示敬重和贊許的遺產(chǎn)。

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, Americas “happy warrior” the best Vice President anybody could ever hope for;Joe Biden.(Applause)我期待著今后 幾周能與羅姆尼州長坐下來討論一下我們可以從何處著手一起努力將美國推向前進(jìn)。我想對

我在過去四年中的朋友和伙伴表示感謝。他就是美國的快樂戰(zhàn)士、無出其右的最佳副總統(tǒng)喬?拜登。

And I wouldn't be the man 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 smart, beautiful young women just like your mom.(Applause)And I am so proud of you guys;but I will say for now one dog is probably enough.如 果不是那位20年前同意嫁給我的女性，我不會成為今天的我。請讓我公開說出下面這段話：米切爾，我對你的愛無以復(fù)加，我無比驕傲地看到其他美國人也愛上了 你這位我們國家的第一夫人。薩沙和瑪利亞，在我們所有人的見證下你們正成長為兩個堅(jiān)強(qiáng)、聰明和美麗的年輕女性，就像你們的媽媽一樣。我十分以你們?yōu)闃s。不過我要說的是，眼下家里養(yǎng)一條狗或許已經(jīng)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 have done and all the incredible work that you've put in.在這個有史以來的最佳競選團(tuán)隊(duì)和有史以來的最佳志愿者隊(duì)伍中，你們有些人是這次新加入進(jìn)來 的，有些人則是一開始就在我身邊。但你們所有人都屬于一個大家庭。無論你的工作是什么，無論你從哪里來，你們都將獲得我們共同創(chuàng)造的歷史記憶，你們都將被 一位充滿感激之情的總統(tǒng)終生感激。感謝你們始終充滿信心，無論是在高峰還是在低谷。你們鼓舞著我走完整個選舉過程，我對你們所做的每件事、你們所做的每項(xiàng) 不可思議的工作將一直充滿感激。

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 are 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 the rope line at a high school gym, or saw folks working late at a campaign office at some tiny county far away from home, you'll discover something else.我知道政治角力有時會顯得小家子氣甚至愚蠢。它為憤世嫉俗者提供了足夠的口實(shí)，他們告訴我們政治不過是自 負(fù)者之間的競爭，是特殊利益集團(tuán)的地盤。但如果你曾經(jīng)有機(jī)會與參加我們集會的那些人以及高中體育館內(nèi)擠在隔離繩外的那些人攀談，或者看到那些在遠(yuǎn)離家鄉(xiāng)的 偏遠(yuǎn)小縣的競選辦公室內(nèi)加班工作的人，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)一些別的東西。

You'll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who's working his way through college and wants to make sure that every child has that same opportunity.You'll hear the pride in the voice of a volunteer who is 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.你將從一位年輕的活動現(xiàn)場組織者的聲音里聽到他的決心，他邊在大學(xué)里學(xué)習(xí)邊 從事助選工作，他希望確

保每個孩子都能擁有同樣的機(jī)會。你將從一位志愿者的聲音里聽到她的驕傲，她挨門動員選民是因?yàn)樗绺缃K因當(dāng)?shù)匾患移囍圃鞆S增加了 一個班次而有了工作。你將從一對軍人夫婦的聲音里聽到深深的愛國情懷。他們深夜時還在接聽選舉電話，以確保那些曾經(jīng)為這個國家作戰(zhàn)的人不會返回家園時還要 為得到一份工作或棲身之所而苦苦爭斗。

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, it 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.正因?yàn)槿绱耍覀円M(jìn)行選舉。這是政治所能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)的。正因?yàn)槿绱耍x舉很重要。這不是小事，而是大事，是至關(guān)重要的事。在一個有三億人口的國家實(shí)行民主制 度可能嘈雜不堪、一團(tuán)混亂、情況復(fù)雜。我們有自己的觀點(diǎn)。我們每個人都有自己深信的信仰。當(dāng)我們經(jīng)歷艱難時期，當(dāng)我們作為一個國家做出重大決定時，這必然 會激發(fā)熱情，也必然會引發(fā)爭議.今晚過后，這都不會改變，也不應(yīng)該改變。我們進(jìn)行的這些爭論恰恰體現(xiàn)了我們的自由。我們永遠(yuǎn)不應(yīng)忘記，就在我們講話之際，遙遠(yuǎn)國度的人們現(xiàn)在正冒著生命危險，僅僅是為了獲得一個能夠?qū)χ匾獑栴}進(jìn)行爭論、像我們今天這樣投票的機(jī)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 access to the best schools and the best teachers.(Applause)A country that lives up to its legacy as the global leader in technology and discovery and innovation.With all the new jobs and new businesses that follow.不過，盡管我們存在這樣那樣的分歧，我們大多數(shù)人都對美國的未來有著某些共同的希望。我們希望我們的孩子成長的國家能夠讓他們上最好的學(xué)校、接受最好老師的教導(dǎo)。一個無愧于全球技術(shù)、探索和創(chuàng)新領(lǐng)袖光輝歷史的國家，倘能如此，各種好工作和新企業(yè)將隨之而來。

We want our children to live in America that isn't burdened by debt, that isn't weakened by inequality.That isn't weakened by the destructive power of a warming planet.(Applause)We want to pass on a country that is 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 that will shape a peace that is built on freedom and dignity for every human being.我 們希望我們的孩子能夠生活在一個沒有債務(wù)之累、沒有不公之苦、沒有全球變暖帶來的破壞之虞的美國。我們希望留給后代一個安全、受到全球尊重和贊賞的國家，一個由全球有史以來最強(qiáng)大的軍事力量和最好的部隊(duì)保衛(wèi)的國家，一個滿懷信心走過戰(zhàn)爭、在人人享有自由和尊嚴(yán)的承諾之上構(gòu)建和平的國家。

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 from the South Side of Chicago who sees a life beyond the street corner.TO the furniture workers child in North Carolina who wants to become a doctor or a scientist, and 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.我 們堅(jiān)信一個慷慨的美國、一個富有同情心的美國、一個寬容的美國。美國向一位移民的女兒的夢想打開了大門，讓她有機(jī)會在我們的學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)、對著我們的國旗宣 誓；美國向芝加哥南部地區(qū)的一個小男孩打開了大門，讓有機(jī)會他看到一個最近街角以外的遠(yuǎn)大人生；美國向北卡羅來納州的一位家具工人的孩子打開了大門，讓他 有機(jī)會實(shí)現(xiàn)自己當(dāng)醫(yī)生或科學(xué)家、工程師或企業(yè)家、外交官甚至是總統(tǒng)的夢想，這是我們希望的未來。這是我們共同的愿景。這是我們奔赴的方向，向前的方向。這 是我們需要實(shí)現(xiàn)的目標(biāo)。

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 we have common hopes and dreams won't end all the gridlock, or solve all our problems or substitute for all the painstaking work for building our consensus or 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 about the work there is to do and the future that lies ahead.(Applause)

現(xiàn)在，我們對如何實(shí)現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)存在分歧，有時分歧還很嚴(yán)重。正如兩個多世紀(jì)以來一樣，進(jìn)展的取得將是斷斷續(xù)續(xù)，并非總是一條直線，并非總是一帆風(fēng)順。承認(rèn)我們擁有共同的希望和夢想，僅憑這一點(diǎn)不會結(jié)束所有的僵局，或解決我們所有的問題，或代替推動這個國家向前所需的達(dá)成共識和做出艱難讓步的辛苦努力。不過，這一共同的紐帶是我們必須開始的地方。我們的經(jīng)濟(jì)正在好轉(zhuǎn)。長達(dá)10年的戰(zhàn)爭即將結(jié)束。一場漫長的競選現(xiàn)已落幕。無論我是否贏得了你們的選票，我一直在傾聽你們的故事，向你們學(xué)習(xí)，是你們使我成 為一位更好的總統(tǒng)。聽過你們的故事和困難經(jīng)歷，我在重返白宮時對今后需要做的工作和未來將懷著比以往更堅(jiān)定的決心和更大的熱情。

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!今晚你們 把票投給了行動，而不是像以往投給了政治。你們選舉我們來專注于你們的工作，而不是我們的工作。在未來的幾周和幾個月內(nèi)，我將期待與兩黨領(lǐng)袖接觸并合作，以便面對我們團(tuán)結(jié)一致才能解決的問題。減少赤字，改革稅法，修改移民制度，擺脫對外國石油的依賴。我們還很更多工作要做。

But that doesn't mean your work is done.The role of citizen in our democracy does not end with your vote.America has 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 is the principle we were founded on.但這并不意味著你們的工作就此結(jié)束。民主國家公民的角色并不隨著投票完結(jié)而結(jié)束。美國看重的從來都不是能夠?yàn)槲覀儌€人做些什么，而是我們團(tuán)結(jié)一致通過自治這一艱難、令人倍感挫折但必要的工作能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)什么。這正是我們的立國之本。

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 envy of the world but that's 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 except certain obligations to one another and the future generations so that the freedom which so many Americans have fought for and died for comes with responsibilities as well as rights and among those are love, and charity, and duty, and patriotism.That's what makes America great.*cheers* 美國的財(cái)富多于世界上任何其他國家，但真正讓我們富有的并非金錢；我們擁有有史以來最強(qiáng)大的軍力，但真正讓我們充滿力量的并非軍隊(duì)；我們的大學(xué)和文化為全世界所艷羨，但美國真正吸引各國人踏上這片土地的魅力也不在于此。真 正讓美國與眾不同的，是將這個地球上最多元化的國家的人民團(tuán)結(jié)到一起的那些紐帶。是我們共命運(yùn)的信念，是只有當(dāng)我們肩負(fù)某些對彼此以及對后代的責(zé)任美國才 能走下去的信念，是無數(shù)的美國人前赴后繼為之奮斗的自由──它既賦予了我們權(quán)利，也給我們帶來了責(zé)任；是愛、慈善、義務(wù)和愛國。正是這些讓美國變得偉大。

I am hopeful tonight because I've seen the spirit at work in America.I have 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 see a friend lose a job.I've seen it in the soldiers who reenlist after losing a limb and in those SEALS that charged up the stairs into darkness and danger because they knew there was a buddy behind them watching their back.今 晚，我滿懷希望，因?yàn)槲乙呀?jīng)看到美國精神正在得以發(fā)揚(yáng)。我看到有些家族企業(yè)，所有者寧可減少自己的薪酬也不愿讓鄰居丟掉工作；我看到有些工人寧愿縮減自己 的工時也不愿看到朋友沒有活干；我看到有些士兵在失去一條腿或胳膊之后又選擇再次入伍；我看到海豹突擊隊(duì)員不避危險沖上樓梯、沖入黑暗，因?yàn)樗麄冎烙幸粋€兄弟在做他的后盾。

I've seen it on the shores of New Jersey and New York where leaders from every party and level of government have swept aside their differences to help a community rebuild from the wreckage of a terrible storm.(Cheers, applause.)And I saw it just the other day in Mentor, Ohio, where a father told the story of his 8-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.(Cheers, applause.)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.(Cheers, applause.)在新澤西和紐約的海岸，我也看到了美國精神。每一個政黨和各級政府的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者都捐棄分歧，為在駭人風(fēng)暴過后的廢墟上重 建社區(qū)各盡己力。就在不久前的一天，在俄亥俄的門托，我看到一位父親在講述他8歲女兒的故事。這個女孩與白血病進(jìn)行了長期的斗爭，如果不是因?yàn)閹讉€月前通 過的醫(yī)改法案，保險公司就會停止支付醫(yī)療費(fèi)用，他們的家庭就將失去一切。我曾有機(jī)會與這位父親攀談，不僅如此，我還見到了他的女兒，這個 非常了不起的小姑娘。當(dāng)這位父親向傾聽他的故事的人講述時，每一位在場的父母的眼里都含著淚水，因?yàn)槲覀冎溃覀冏约旱暮⒆右灿锌赡苡龅竭@種狀況。而且 我知道，每一位美國人都希望這位小女孩的未來能像所有人的未來一樣光明。這就是美國人，這就是美國，我為自己能夠成為這個國家的總統(tǒng)、帶領(lǐng)這個國家前行感 到無比光榮。

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.(Cheers, applause.)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 road blocks that stand in our path.I'm not talking about the wishful idealism that allows us to just sit on the sidelines or shirk from a fight.今晚，盡管我們遭遇了很多困難，盡管華盛頓有諸多不盡人意之處，我仍從未像現(xiàn)在這樣對未來充滿希望。我從未像現(xiàn)在這樣對美國 充滿希望。我請大家也保持這樣的希望。我所說的并非盲目的樂觀主義，不是那種看不到眼前的任務(wù)有多么艱巨、看不到前行的路上有什么樣的障礙的希望；我所說 的并非作壁上觀或是臨戰(zhàn)退縮的一廂情愿的理想主義。

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.我一直相信，所謂希望就是我們內(nèi)心倔強(qiáng)地堅(jiān)持的力量，相信不管有多少相反的證據(jù)，都要相信有更好的東西在等著我們，只要我們有勇氣不斷前行、不懈工作、不停戰(zhàn)斗。

America, I believe we can build on the progress we've made and continue to fight for new jobs and new opportunities and new security for the middle class.I believe we can keep the promise of our founding, 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(ph).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, abled, disabled, gay or straight.(Cheers, applause.)You can make it here in America if you're willing to try.國民們，我相信我們有能力在已經(jīng)取得的進(jìn)步的基礎(chǔ)上再進(jìn)一步，繼續(xù)為了給中產(chǎn)階級創(chuàng)造新的工作、新的機(jī)遇、新的保障而戰(zhàn)斗。我相信我們有能力信守開國者們許 下的諾言，信守這樣一種理念，那就是不管你是誰，不管你來自哪里，不管你長相如何，不管你愛著哪個地方，你所需要做的就是努力工作。不管你的膚色是黑是 白，不管你是拉美裔、亞裔還是美國原住民，不管你年輕還是年老，富有還是貧窮，身體健全或是殘障，同性戀還是異性戀，只要你愿意努力，就能夠在美國大有作為。

I believe we can seize this future together because we are not as divided as our politics suggest.We are not as cynical as the pendants believe.We are greater than the sum of our individual ambitions and we remain more than a collection of red states and blue states, we are and forever will be the United States of America and together with your help and Gods grace we will continue to journey forward and remind the world what it is to live in the greatest nation on earth.我相信我們有能力共同握住這樣的未來，因?yàn)槊绹嗣癫⒉幌裾缒敲磭?yán)重分歧。美國人民不像某些飽學(xué)之士所認(rèn)為的那樣憤世嫉俗。美國的抱負(fù)并不是每一個美國人的抱負(fù)的簡單加總，美國也不是紅州和藍(lán)州的簡單聯(lián)合。我們是美利堅(jiān)合眾國，我們將永遠(yuǎn)是美利堅(jiān)合眾國。有你們的幫助，有上帝的仁慈，我們將繼續(xù)攜手前行，讓全世界知道我們生活在全球最偉大的國度的原因到底是什么。

Thank you America.God bless us.God bless these United States.(Applause)謝謝你，國民們，上帝保佑你們，上帝保佑美國。

The text of Barack Obama's victory speech in full

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 very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different;that their voice could be that difference.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.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.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.I just received a very gracious call from Senator 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 Governor Palin for all they have 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 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.I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last sixteen 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.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.But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to – 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 five dollars and ten dollars and twenty dollars 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.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.（中文）

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(shí)現(xiàn)開國者鍛造的美國夢？民主信仰是否具有強(qiáng)大力量？如果還有人對此報(bào)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(duì)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群蛄季茫@是很多同胞有生以來的第一次。因?yàn)樗麄兿嘈牛@一次，將不同以往；這一次，因?yàn)樗麄兊暮袈暥兴煌?/p>

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(lán)陣營的政治堆砌，我們是，而且永遠(yuǎn)是，美利堅(jiān)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(xiàn)。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(xiàn)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?yàn)樗湍切┵e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(zhǔn)美國第一夫人的堅(jiān)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(jì)量。

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(tuán)隊(duì)說，是你們讓這一切成為了現(xiàn)實(shí)，對于你們?yōu)榇怂龅臓奚透冻鑫矣肋h(yuǎn)感懷在心。

然而，有一點(diǎn)是最重要的，那就是我永遠(yuǎn)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(jì)的下層百姓，來自于冒著嚴(yán)寒酷暑、戶戶敲門宣傳的團(tuán)隊(duì)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(xiàn)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?yàn)槟銈兌们胺饺蝿?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(jī)；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(fèi)以及給孩子存下大學(xué)經(jīng)費(fèi)。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。

第五篇：2012奧巴馬勝選演講稿

2012奧巴馬勝選演講稿

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.今晚，你投給的是行動，而不是政治。你們的選擇將成就你們的工作，而不是我們的。在接下來的幾個星期幾個月當(dāng)中，我會期待和我們兩黨的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人一起來共同尋求那些我們只有共同努力才能解決的矛盾的問題，縮減赤字，改革法案，修正移民法，拜托對進(jìn)口石油的依賴。我們的路還很漫長

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.但是這不意味著你們的工作就結(jié)束了。服務(wù)于民主的責(zé)任并未因投票的結(jié)束而完結(jié)。美國的價值并不在于它為我們做什么，而是在于我們一起可以做什么。由我們艱難的和有時令人失望的，但又不可或缺的民主政府來完成。這是我們立國之根本。

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 envy of the world, but that's not what keeps the world coming to our shores.我們比任何一個國家資源都豐富，但是這并不是我們富有的原因。我們有世上最無敵的軍隊(duì)，但是這并不是我們富有的原因。我們的大學(xué)、我們的文化，雖然是全球最優(yōu)秀的，但這并不是世界人民爭相投奔我們的原因。

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 America great.是因?yàn)槲覀兪且粋€多民族的國家，多樣性的國家。我相信我們的命運(yùn)緊緊相連，我相信國家的發(fā)展需要每個人都承擔(dān)起各自的責(zé)任，對他人的責(zé)任，對下一代的責(zé)任。所以無數(shù)美國人為之戰(zhàn)斗，為之獻(xiàn)出自由。同時也意味著權(quán)力和責(zé)任，同時也意味著愛和仁慈，義務(wù)和國家情操。這才是美國偉大的原因。
