the Marines and was heading to Iraq the following week。 As I listened to him explain why hed enlisted; his absolute faith in our country and its leaders; his devotion to duty and service; I thought this young man was all any of us might hope for in a child。 But then I asked myself: Are we serving Shamus as well as he was serving us? I thought of more than 900 service men and women; sons and daughters; husbands and wives; friends and neighbors; who will not be returning to their hometowns。 I thought of families I had met who were struggling to get by without a loved ones full ine; or whose loved ones had returned with a limb missing or with nerves shattered; but who still lacked long…term health benefits because they were reservists。 When we send our young men and women into harms way; we have a solemn obligation not to fudge the numbers or shade the truth about why theyre going; to care for their families while theyre gone; to tend to the soldiers upon their return; and to never ever go to war without enough troops to win the war; secure the peace; and earn the respect of the world。
Now let me be clear。 We have real enemies in the world。 These enemies must be found。 They must be pursued and they must be defeated。 John Kerry knows this。 And just as Lieutenant Kerry did not hesitate to risk his life to protect the men who served with him in Vietnam; President Kerry will not hesitate one moment to use our military might to keep America safe and secure。 John Kerry believes in America。 And he knows its not enough for just some of us to prosper。 For alongside our famous individualism; theres another ingredient in the American saga。
A belief that we are connected as one people。 If theres a child on the south side of Chicago who cant read; that matters to me; even if its not my child。 If theres a senior citizen somewhere who cant pay for her prescription and has to choose between medicine and the rent; that makes my life poorer; even if its not my grandmother。 If theres an Arab American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney or due process; that threatens my civil liberties。 Its that fundamental belief … I am my brothers keeper; I am my sisters keeper … that makes this country work。 Its what allows us to pursue our individual dreams; yet still e together as a single American family。 〃E pluribus unum。〃 Out of many; one。
Yet even as we speak; there are those who are preparing to divide us; the spin masters and negative ad peddlers who embrace the politics of anything goes。 Well; I say to them tonight; theres not a liberal America and a conservative America … theres the United States of America。 Theres not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; theres the United States of America。 The pundits like to slice…and…dice our country into Red States and Blue States; Red States for Republicans; Blue States for Democrats。 But Ive got news for them; too。 We worship an awesome God in the Blue States; and we dont like federal agents poking around our libraries in the Red States。 We coach Little League in the Blue States and have gay friends in the Red States。 There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq and patriots who supported it。 We are one people; all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes; all of us defending the United States of America。 。 想看书来
基调演讲(6)
In the end; thats what this election is about。 Do we participate in a politics of cynicism or a politics of hope? John Kerry calls on us to hope。 John Edwards calls on us to hope。 Im not talking about blind optimism here … the almost willful ignorance that thinks unemployment will go away if we just dont talk about it; or the health care crisis will solve itself if we just ignore it。 No; Im talking about something more substantial。 Its the hope of slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs; the hope of immigrants setting out for distant shores; the hope of a young naval lieutenant bravely patrolling the Mekong Delta; the hope of a millworkers son who dares to defy the odds; the hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that America has a place for him; too。 The audacity of hope!
In the end; that is Gods greatest gift to us; the bedrock of this nation; the belief in things not seen; the belief that there are better days ahead。 I believe we can give our middle class relief and provide working families with a road to opportunity。 I believe we can provide jobs to the jobless; homes to the homeless; and reclaim young people in cities across America from violence and despair。 I believe that as we stand on the crossroads of history; we can make the right choices; and meet the challenges that face us。 America!
Tonight; if you feel the same energy I do; the same urgency I do; the same passion I do; the same hopefulness I do … if we do what we must do; then I have no doubt that all across the country; from Florida to Oregon; from Washington to Maine; the people will rise up in November; and John Kerry will be sworn in as president; and John Edwards will be sworn in as vice president; and this country will reclaim its promise; and out of this long political darkness a brighter day will e。 Thank you and God bless you。

今晚,此刻,我们相信(1)
——巴拉克?奥巴马在艾奥瓦党团会议选举获胜之夜的演讲 ;
我衷心感谢艾奥瓦的公民们。
众所周知,有人说这一天永远不会到来。
有人说我们好高骛远。
有人说人民异见纷呈,悲观失望,不可能再为了一个共同的目标而众志成城。
但在这个一月的夜晚,在这个书写历史的时刻,你们做到了那些愤世嫉俗的人断言我们做不到的事。五天后新罕布什尔州的选民也将完成你们的壮举。在刚刚来到的2008年,美国人民也会完成同样的壮举。在学校和教堂,在小市镇和大城市,你们——民主党人、共和党人、无党派人士——熙熙攘攘地走到一起,自豪地宣称:我们是一个国家,我们是一个民族;变革的时刻已经到来。你们还说,华盛顿被冷酷、萎缩和愤怒所淹没,现在是超越这种政治手段、以相加替代分割的时刻,是在红州和蓝州建立变革联盟的时刻。这是因为我们将以此在11月取胜,我们也将以此面对我们国家面临的挑战。
我们选择希望,抛弃恐惧;我们选择联合,拒绝分裂;我们向美利坚高声宣布变革就在眼前。
你们宣布,政治说客自以为他们的财富和影响力比公众舆论的威力更大,但是他们并不拥有这个政府。政府是我们的,我们正在把它收回。
人民此刻需要这样一位总统:他能诚实面对机遇和挑战;即使跟人民见解不同也会倾听和了解他们的想法;他不仅要说人民愿意听到的话,更要提供人民需要知道的信息。如果新罕布什尔也给我今晚艾奥瓦给我的机会,我将会是这样一位总统。
感谢你们。
我会是这样一位总统:让每个人都能看上病和看得起病。我在伊利诺伊州就通过民主党人和共和党人的携手合作实现了这一目标。
我会是这样一位总统:终止所有把工作运往海外的公司的税收优惠政策,并给美国最值得享受减税的中产阶级减税。
我会是这样一位总统:让农场主、科学家和企业家发挥他们的创造力,使我们国家一劳永逸地摆脱石油的主宰。
最后,我会是这样一位总统:我要结束伊拉克战争并让我们的士兵回家;我要恢复我们的道德地位;我知道“9?11”不是骗取选票的借口,而是使美国和世界联合起来应对21世纪这个世界面临的共同威胁:恐怖主义和核扩散,全球变暖和贫困,种族屠杀和疾病。
今晚,因为艾奥瓦公民的选择,我们距离那样的美国蓝图又近了一步。在此,我特别想感谢选举的组织者和各个投票站的站长、志愿者和我的竞选团队的工作人员。没有你们就没有今晚的胜利。
