好的方法迎接努力、有憧憬的移民，他們依舊視美國是一塊充滿機會的土地。如果我們真正是生而平等的，那么我們對彼此的愛也應該是平等的。直到我們的妻子、母親和女兒的付出能夠與她們的努力相稱，我們的征途才會結束。馬丁路德金說，我們個人的自由與地球上每個靈魂的自由不可分割。在偉大的征程中，一路上留下足跡的人。我們，人民，今天昭示的最明白的事實是——我們所有人都是生而平等的，這是依然引領我們的恒星。我們將支持從亞洲到非洲、從美洲至中東的民主國家，因為我們的利益和良心驅使我們代表那些想獲得自由的人們采取行動。美國將在全球保持強大的聯盟，我們將更新這些能擴展我們應對海外危機能力的機制。我們將通過強大的軍力和法制保護我們的人民，捍衛(wèi)我們的價值觀。明白他們的犧牲將讓我們永遠對那些試圖傷害我們的勢力保持警惕。我們勇敢的士兵經受了戰(zhàn)火的考驗，他們的技能和勇氣是無可匹敵的。這將給我們的建國之父們曾宣布的信條賦予意義。這是我們保持經濟活力和國家財富(我們的森林和航道，我們的農田與雪峰)的方法。但美國不能抵制這種趨勢，我們必須引領這種趨勢。一些人可能仍在否定科學界的壓倒性判斷，但沒有人能夠避免熊熊火災、嚴重旱災、更強力風暴帶來的災難性打擊。我們，人民，仍然相信，我們作為美國人的義務不只是對我們自己而言，還包括對子孫后代。我們通過醫(yī)療保險、聯邦醫(yī)療補助計劃、社會保障項目向每個人做出承諾，這些不會讓我們的創(chuàng)造力衰竭，而是會讓我們更強大。我們相信，在這個國家，自由不只是那些幸運兒的專屬，或者說幸福只屬于少數人。但我們拒絕在照顧建設國家的這一代和投資即將建設國家的下一代間做出選擇。我們，人民，仍然認為，每個公民都應當獲得基本的安全和尊嚴。這是現在需要的。我們必須應用新理念和新技術重塑我們的政府，改進我們的稅法，改革我們的學校，讓我們的公民擁有他們所需要的技能，更加努力地工作，學更多的知識，向更高處發(fā)展。她的自由平等不僅由上帝來見證，更由我們親手保護。我們忠誠于我們的事業(yè)，保證讓一個出生于最貧窮環(huán)境中的小女孩都能知道，她有同其他所有人一樣的成功機會。只有當每個人都能找到工作中的自立與自豪時才能實現。因為我們，美國人民，清楚如果只有不斷萎縮的少數人群體獲得成功，而大多數人不能成功，我們的國家就無法成功。美國的可能性是無限的，因為我們擁有當今沒有邊界的世界所需要的所有品質：年輕與活力、多樣性與開放、無窮的冒險精神以及創(chuàng)造的天賦才能。這一代美國人經歷了危機的考驗，經濟危機堅定了我們的決心，證明了我們的恢復力?，F在，與以往任何時候相比，我們都更需要團結合作。一個人無法培訓所有的數學與科學老師，我們需要他們?yōu)榱宋磥砣ソ逃⒆觽?。保護我們的個人自由，最終需要所有人的共同努力。我們也理解，時代在變化，我們同樣需要變革。我們同樣不屈服于這一謊言：一切的社會弊端都能夠只靠政府來解決。我們共同決定讓這個偉大的國家遠離危險，保護她的人民不受生命威脅和不幸的侵擾。建立學校與大學，培訓我們的工人。我們共同努力，建立起現代的經濟體系。從奴役的血腥枷鎖和刀劍的血光廝殺中我們懂得了，建立在自由與平等原則之上的聯邦不能永遠維持半奴隸和半自由的狀態(tài)。他們委托每一代美國人捍衛(wèi)我們的建國信條。1776年，美國的愛國先驅們不是只為了推翻國王的暴政而戰(zhàn)，也不是為贏得少數人的特權，建立暴民的統治。因為歷史告訴我們，即便這些真理是不言而喻的，它們也從來不會自動生效。造物主賦予他們若干不可剝奪的權利，包括生存、自由和追求幸福的權利。讓我們與眾不同，讓我們成為美國人的是我們對于一種理念的恪守。我們都是在肯定美國民主的承諾。拜登副總統、首席大法官先生、國會議員們、尊敬的各位嘉賓、親愛的公民們。奧巴馬提及這代美國人從建國之父那里繼承的精神還沒有完成實踐，現在的美國人需要繼續(xù)努力，實現生存、自由與追求幸福的權利。奧巴馬在演講中追溯美國民主傳統和憲法精神，通過闡述就業(yè)、醫(yī)保、移民、財政、同性戀及氣候變化威脅等多項議題與現實有力契合。normandy
