2、lause.)謝謝，謝謝，非常感謝。兩百多年前，人民在這塊曾經(jīng)的殖民地上贏得了自己的命運(yùn)；今夜，我們向?qū)崿F(xiàn)完美聯(lián)邦的目標(biāo)又邁近了一步。Itmovesfwardbecauseofyou.Itmovesfwardbecauseyoureaffirmedthespiritthathastriumphedoverwardepressionthespiritthathasliftedthiscountryfromthedepthsofdespai

4、。我們每個(gè)人都可以追逐自己的夢(mèng)想。美國(guó)同胞血濃于水，作為一個(gè)國(guó)家和民族，我們共起落、同榮辱。TonightinthiselectionyoutheAmericanpeopleremindedusthatwhileourroadhasbeenhardwhileourjourneyhasbeenlongwehavepickedourselvesupwehavefoughtourwaybackweknowinourheartsthatfthe

7、adeadifference.(Cheersapplause.)我想感謝每一位親身參與大選的美國(guó)人。無(wú)論這是你的第一次投票，又或是在隊(duì)伍中等待了很久。順便說(shuō)一句，排隊(duì)這個(gè)問(wèn)題真是亟待解決。無(wú)論你是步行前往，還是拿起電話；無(wú)論你舉的牌子上，寫的是奧巴馬還是羅姆尼…你的聲音都會(huì)被聽到，你也一樣帶來(lái)了改變。IjustspokewithGovernRomneyIcongratulatedhimPaulRyanonahardfoughtcampa

10、如此關(guān)心它的未來(lái)。從喬治到蘭我知道有時(shí)候政治競(jìng)選看起來(lái)渺小，甚至愚蠢，這為憤世嫉俗者們提供了很多素材。他們告訴我們，政治不過(guò)是為特殊利益集團(tuán)服務(wù)的猴戲。但如果你曾經(jīng)同參加過(guò)我們的集會(huì)的普通人，或是在高中體育館圍線外排隊(duì)的人們交談過(guò)；或是看到在遠(yuǎn)離家鄉(xiāng)的小郡縣競(jìng)選辦公室里工作到很晚的人們，你一定會(huì)有新的認(rèn)識(shí)。You’llhearthedeterminationinthevoiceofayoungfieldganizerwho’swking

12、lause.)你會(huì)在一位半工半讀的年輕活動(dòng)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)組織者聲音中，聽到無(wú)比的堅(jiān)定。他想讓每個(gè)孩子都能有均等的機(jī)會(huì)；你會(huì)在一名志愿者聲音中，聽到他的自豪。她挨家挨戶的告訴每一個(gè)人，她的哥哥終于有了工作，因?yàn)楫?dāng)?shù)氐钠嚬驹黾恿艘粋€(gè)輪班；You’llhearthedeeppatriotisminthevoiceofamilitaryspousewho’swkingthephoneslateatnighttomakesurethatnoonewho

13、fightsfthiscountryeverhastofightfajobaroofovertheirheadwhentheycomehome.(Cheersapplause.)你會(huì)在一位軍嫂聲音中聽到她的愛國(guó)主義情懷。她深夜也不放下電話是為了要讓每一位保家衛(wèi)國(guó)的戰(zhàn)士，都不用在回家后，卻為一份工作、一片屋檐，苦苦求而不得。That’swhywedothis.That’swhatpoliticscanbe.That’swhyelectio

16、thatmatter—(cheersapplause)—thechancetocasttheirballotslikewedidtoday.這就是我們做這些的原因。政治也可以說(shuō)這樣的。這就是為什么，選舉是重要的。它并不渺小，它是件大事，很重要的大事。在有三億人口的國(guó)家中，民主會(huì)顯得喧嘩、混亂、復(fù)雜。我們有自己的觀點(diǎn)，每個(gè)人都有自己堅(jiān)定的信仰。當(dāng)面對(duì)困難的時(shí)期，當(dāng)我們的國(guó)家需要作出重大的決定時(shí)，它必然會(huì)激發(fā)熱情，也掀起爭(zhēng)議。這些在今晚之后

17、都不會(huì)改變，也不應(yīng)該被改變。這些爭(zhēng)論是我們自由的印記。我們永遠(yuǎn)不能忘記，就在此時(shí)此刻，在一些遙遠(yuǎn)的國(guó)家，人民正在冒著生命的危險(xiǎn)，只為了能有討論那些重要話題的機(jī)會(huì)，為了能有像我們今天這樣投出自己一票的機(jī)會(huì)。ButdespiteallourdifferencesmostofussharecertainhopesfAmerica’sfuture.Wewantourkidstogrowupinacountrywheretheyhaveacces
