美國(guó)總統(tǒng)奧巴馬上任以來(lái)一直引人關(guān)注。他確實(shí)是一位成功人士。不說(shuō)其他,就說(shuō)他的演講口才,實(shí)在讓人佩服得很。2012年,奧巴馬力圖連任,結(jié)果如他所愿。他怎么就能心想事成呢?看看他的勝選演講就略知一二了。親愛(ài)的讀者朋友,你想擁有奧巴馬這樣的演講口才嗎?
Thank you so much.
Tonight, more than 200 years after a former colony won the right to determine its own destiny, the task of perfecting our union moves forward.
It moves forward because of you. It moves forward because you reaffirmed the spirit that has triumphed over war and depression; the spirit that has lifted this country from the depths of despair to the great heights of hope—the belief that while each of us will pursue our own individual dreams, we are an American family and we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people.
Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America, the best is yet to come...
We may have battled fiercely, but its 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 honor and applaud tonight. In the weeks ahead, I also look forward to sitting down with Gov. Romney to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward.
I want to thank my friend and partner of the last four years, Americas happy warrior—the best Vice President anybody could ever hope for—Joe Biden.
And I wouldnt 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 nations First Lady.
Sasha and Malia, before our very eyes, youre growing up to become two strong, smart, beautiful young women, just like your mom. And Im so proud of you guys. But I will say that for now, one dogs probably enough.
To the best campaign team and volunteers in the history of politics—the best. The best ever. Some of you were new this time around, and some of you have been at my side since the very beginning. But all of you are family. No matter what you do or where you go from here, you will carry the memory of the history we made together, and you will have the lifelong appreciation of a grateful President. Thank you for believing all the way, through every hill, through every valley. You lifted me up the whole way, and I will always be grateful for everything that youve done and all the incredible work that you put in...
And tonight, despite all the hardship weve been through, despite all the frustrations of Washington, Ive never been more hopeful about our future. I have never been more hopeful about America. And I ask you to sustain that hope. Im not talking about blind optimism, the kind of hope that just ignores the enormity of the tasks ahead or the roadblocks that stand in our path. Im 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...
I believe we can seize this future together, because we are not as divided as our politics suggests. Were 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. And together, with your help, and Gods 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.
