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 si_teen years, the rock of our family and the love of my life, our nation"s ne_t 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 a_elrod, 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.

the road ahead will be long. our climb will be steep. we may not get there in one year or even one term, but america - i have never been more hopeful than i am tonight that we will get there. i promise you - we as a people will get there.

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 that government can"t solve every problem. 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 join in the work of remaking this nation the only way it"s been done in america for two-hundred and twenty-one years - block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand. what began twenty-one months ago in the depths of winter must not end on this autumn night. 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. it cannot happen without you.

so let us summon a new spirit of patriotism; of service and responsibility where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves, but each other. 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 - in this country, we rise or fall as one nation; as one people.

let us resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long. let us 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, individual liberty, and national unity. those are values 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. 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.” and to those americans whose support i have yet to earn - i may not have won your vote, but i hear your voices, i need your help, and i will be your president too.

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 our world - our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of american leadership is at hand. to those who would tear this 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 our 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.

for that is the true genius of america - that america can change. our union can be perfected. and what we have already achieved gives us hope for what we can and must achieve tomorrow.

this election had many firsts and many stories that will be told for generations. but one that"s on my mind tonight is 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 e_cept for one thing - ann ni_on cooper is 106 years old. 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.

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.

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.

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 and a new sense of common purpose. yes we can.

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.

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.

a man touched down on the moon, a wall came down in berlin, a world was connected by our own science and imagination. 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. yes we can.

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 ne_t century; if my daughters should be so lucky to live as long as ann ni_on cooper, what change will they see? what progress will we have made?

this is our chance to answer that call. this is our moment. 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 doubt, 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. thank you, god bless you, and may god bless the united states of america.

the president: hello, big easy! (applause.) everybody, give it up for nancy for thatgreat introduction. (applause.) it is good to be back in new orleans. this is what passes forwinter here in new orleans, huh? (laughter.) folks got all their coats on and all that. come on.you need to go to chicago to know what it’s like to be cold.

it is great to be here. it is especially happy for my staff. they love coming to new orleans.but we did schedule the event early because ifigure there’s a limit to how much trouble theycould get into. (laughter.) they can’t get over to bourbon street fast enough if we did adaytimeevent. and i know that there areprobably a couple of my staff that are lsu fans. iwouldn’t mind staying for the game tomorrownight. i know we’ve got the presidenthere -- i justsaw him a minute ago and i wished him all the best.

i also want to acknowledge acouple of other people who are here. you’vegot your governor-- bobby jindal is here. (applause.) we’ve got thesecretary of transportation anthony fo__,who is here. (applause.) we have cedric richmond, your outstanding congressman. (applause.) cedric then brought down a whole bunch of his colleagues from thecongressionalblack caucus for some important work that they’re doing -- notthat they’re going to enjoythemselves at all while they’re here. (laughter.) but we are thrilled to see them all here.

you have one of the best mayorsin the country in mitch landrieu. (applause.) and i justflew downwith your senator, who, by coincidence, has the same name -- mary landrieu. (applause.) she’s traveling around the state today and doing unbelievable work on behalfof thepeople of louisiana. and i justwant to say nobody is a tougher advocate on behalf of theworking people oflouisiana than mary landrieu. so we’revery, very proud of the work that shedoes. (applause.)

finally, i want to thank mr. garylagrange, keith palmisano, and chris hammond. theyshowed me around the port. (applause.) and this is one ofthe -- by the way, anybody who’s gota seat, feel free. i noticed that a few folks are standingup. if you don’t have a seat then keeponstanding. i don’t want you hurtingyourself.

this is one of the busiest portcomple_es in the entire world. you movemillions of tons ofsteel and chemicals and fuel and food every singleyear. i just found out you also handle alot ofthe country’s coffee, which means you’re responsible for keeping thewhite house awake at alltimes. (applause.) got some coffee folkshere.

and, in so many ways, this portis representative of what ports all around the country do:they help to keep our economy going -- movingproducts, moving people, making sure thatbusinesses are working. you’ve got corn and wheat that’s coming downfrom my home state ofillinois down the river, ending up here, and then goingall around the world. and it’s part ofthereason why we’ve been able to increase e_ports so rapidly, is because we’vegot some of the bestnatural resources and waterways and facilities in theworld.

now, growing our economy,creating new jobs, helping middle-class families regain a senseof stabilityand security so they can find good jobs and make sure that their kids are doingevenbetter than they did -- that’s always been what america is about, but fortoo many people, thatsense that you can make it here if you try, that sensehas been slipping away. and mydrivingfocus has been to restore that sense of security, and it should be washington’sfocus,regardless of party. that’s whateverybody in washington should be thinking about every day.

so today, i want to just offer acouple of ideas about what we could do right now togetherthat would help oureconomy -- right now. now, the good newsis, over the past 44 months ourbusinesses have created 7.8 million newjobs. since i took office, we’ve cut thedeficits in half. (applause.) that’s right. by the way, you wouldn’t know this sometimes listening to folks ontv,but the deficits are going down, they’re not going up. they’ve been cut in half. (applause.)and they keep on going down.

over the past three years, healthcare costs have risen at the slowest pace on record.e_ports are up. the housing market is up. the american auto industry is roaring back. so we’vegot a lot of good things to buildon, but we’ve got a lot more work to do. and what we shouldstart doing, the first thing we should do is stopdoing things that undermine our businessesand our economy over the past fewyears -- this constant cycle of manufactured crises and self-inflicted woundsthat have been coming out of washington.

for e_ample, we learned yesterdaythat over the summer, our economy grew at its fastestpace in a year. that’s the good news. the bad news is that the very day that theeconomicquarter ended, some folks in washington decided to shut down thegovernment and threatenedto default on america’s obligations for the firsttime in more than 200 years. and it’slike thegears of our economy, every time they are just about to take off,suddenly somebody taps thebrakes and says, "not so fast."

audience member: tell it! (laughter.)

the president: now, our businesses are resilient. we’ve got great workers. and so, asa consequence, we added about200,000 new jobs last month. but there’sno question that theshutdown harmed our jobs market. the unemployment rate still ticked up. and we don’t yetknow all the data for thisfinal quarter of the year, but it could be down because of whathappened inwashington. now, that makes nosense. these self-inflicted wounds don’thave tohappen. they should not happenagain.

we should not be injuringourselves every few months -- we should be investing inourselves. we should be building, not tearing thingsdown. rather than refighting the sameoldbattles again and again and again, we should be fighting to make sureeverybody who workshard in america and hard right here in new orleans, thatthey have a chance to get ahead.that’swhat we should be focused on. (applause.)

which brings me to one of thereasons i’m here at this port. one ofthe things we should befocused on is helping more businesses sell moreproducts to the rest of the world. andthe onlyway those products get out is through facilities like this. right now, e_ports are one of thebrightestspots in our economy. thanks in part tonew trade deals that we signed with countrieslike panama and colombia andsouth korea, we now e_port more goods and services than everbefore. and that means jobs right here in the unitedstates of america.

last year, every $1 billion ine_ports supports nearly 5,000 jobs, including jobs right here atthis port. so we’re working on new trade deals that willmean more jobs for our workers, andmore business for ports like this one.

and, by the way, when i travelaround the world, i’m out there selling. i’ll go anywhere inthe world to make sure that those products stampedwith those words, "made in america," thatwe can open up those markets and sellthem anywhere. (applause.)

so helping american businessesgrow; creating more jobs -- these are not democratic orrepublicanpriorities. they are priorities thateverybody, regardless of party, should be able toget behind. and that’s why, in addition to working withcongress to grow our e_ports, i’ve putforward additional ideas where i believedemocrats and republicans can join together to makeprogress right now.

number one, congress needs topass a farm bill that helps rural communities grow andprotects vulnerableamericans. for decades, congress found away to compromise and passfarm bills without fuss. for some reason, now congress can’t even getthat done. now, this isnot somethingthat just benefits farmers. ports likethis one depend on all the products comingdown the mississippi. so let’s do the right thing, pass a farmbill. we can start sellingmoreproducts. that’s more business for thisport. and that means more jobs righthere. (applause.)

number two, we should fi_ ourbroken immigration system. (applause.) this would begoodfor our national security, but it would also be good for our economic security. over thene_t two decades, it would grow oureconomy by $1.4 trillion. it wouldshrink our deficits bynearly a trillion dollars. this should not be a partisan issue. president bush proposed the broadoutlines ofcommon-sense immigration reform almost a decade ago. when i was in the senate,i joined 23 of myrepublican colleagues to back those reforms. this year, the senate has alreadypassed a bill with broad bipartisansupport.

so all we’re doing now is waitingfor the house to act. i don’t know whatthe holdup is. but ifthere’s a goodreason not to do it, i haven’t heard it. there’s no reason both parties can’t cometogether and get this donethis year. get it done this year. (applause.)

number three, democrats andrepublicans should work together on a responsible budgetthat sets america on astronger course for the future. weshouldn’t get caught up in the sameold fights. and we shouldn’t just cut things just for the sake of cuttingthings. remember, iwant to remind you-- what’s happening in the deficits? they’re going down. they’reshrinking.they’re falling faster thanthey have in 60 years.

so what we have to do now is dowhat america has always done: make somewiseinvestments in our people and in our country that will help us grow overthe long term. weshould close wastefulta_ loopholes that don’t help our jobs, don’t grow our economy, and theninvestthat money in things that actually do create jobs and grow our economy. and one of thosethings is building new roadsand bridges and schools and ports. thatcreates jobs. (applause.) itputs people to work during theconstruction phase. and then it createsan infrastructure for oureconomy to succeed moving forward.

educating our kids, training ourworkers so they’re prepared for the global economy -- thathelps us grow. we should be investing in that. and mayor landrieu has been doing a great jobinimproving education here in new orleans. (applause.)

investing in science and research and technology -- that keeps ourbusinesses and ourmilitary at our cutting edge. that’s the kind of investment we should bemaking.

i mean, think about ourinfrastructure. in today’s globaleconomy, businesses are going totake root and grow wherever there’s thefastest, most reliable transportation andcommunications networks -- they cango anywhere. so china is investing a lotin infrastructure.europe is investing awhole lot in infrastructure. and brazilis investing a whole lot ininfrastructure. what are we doing?

we’re doing some good thingslocally here. the state and city aretrying to do some work,but nationally we’re falling behind. we’re relying on old stuff. i don’t think we should have justoldstuff. we should have some new stuffthat is going to help us grow and keep pace withglobal competition.

rebuilding our transportation andcommunications networks is one of the fastest ways tocreate good jobs. and consider that just a couple of years fromnow, we’re going to have newsupertankers that are going to start comingthrough the panama canal, and these tankers canhold three times as much cargoas today’s. if a port can’t handle thosesupertankers, they’ll goload and unload cargo somewhere else. so there’s work that we can start doing interms ofdredging and making the passageways deeper, which means thesupertankers can have morestuff on them, which means they can unload and loadmore stuff, which makes this port morecompetitive.

so why wouldn’t we put people towork upgrading them? (applause.) why wouldn’t we dothat? it’s not just our ports either. one in nine of our bridges is ratedstructurally deficient.more than 40percent of our major highways are congested; so is our airspace. everybody who’ssitting on a tarmac wonderingwhy it is that you’re not taking off, and getting aggravated whenyou go flysomeplace, part of the reason is we’ve got this antiquated air traffic controlsystem.we need the ne_t generation airtraffic control system. it would reducetime travel; it wouldreduce delays. itreduces fuel costs for airlines. itreduces pollution in the sky. we knowhow todo it, we just haven’t done it.

that shouldn’t be a democratic ora republican issue. that’s just smart togo ahead and doit. something thatpeople across the political spectrum shouldbe able to agree on. now, here’sthething: all these opportunities andchallenges, they’re not going to magically fi_ themselves.we’ve got to do it. and anybody who says we can’t afford to payfor these things needs to realizewe’re already paying for them.

i’ll give you an e_ample. a lot of trucking companies now reroute theirshipments to avoidtraffic and unsafe bridges. so they’re going longer than they need to; that costs them money.so you’re paying for it. those costs then get passed on toconsumers. or it means companiesaren’tmaking as much of a profit and maybe they’ve got fewer employees. so directly orindirectly, we’re paying forit. and the longer we delay, the more we’llpay.

but the sooner we take care ofbusiness, the better. and i know that ifthere’s one thing thatmembers of congress from both parties want, it’s smartinfrastructure projects that create goodjobs in their districts.

that’s why, last year, i took thestep without congress to speed up the permitting processfor big infrastructureprojects like upgrading our ports. justcut through the red tape. get itdonefaster. this year, rebuilding ourinfrastructure could be part of a bipartisan budget deal. acouple months ago, i put forward an idea totry to break through some of the old arguments -- agrand bargain formiddle-class jobs. and what i said was,we’ll simplify our corporate ta_code, close some wasteful ta_ loopholes, endincentives to ship jobs overseas, lower ta_ rates forbusinesses that createjobs here in the united states, and use some of the money we save byswitchingto a smarter ta_ system to create good construction jobs building the thingsthat ourbusinesses need right here in america. it’s a pretty sensible deal. (applause.)

so if we took that step, we couldmodernize our air traffic control system to keep planesrunning on time;modernize our power grids and pipelines so they survive storms; modernizeourschools to prepare our kids for jobs of the future; modernize our ports so theycanaccommodate the new ships.

the point is, rebuilding ourinfrastructure or educating our kids, funding basic research --they are notpartisan issues, they’re american issues. there used to be a broad consensus thatthese things were important toour economy. and we’ve got to get backto that mindset. we’vegot to moveforward on these things together. itdoesn’t mean that there aren’t going to bedisagreements on a whole bunch ofstuff, but let’s work on the things we agree on.

now, i’m going to make one lastpoint, one area where we haven’t made much bipartisanprogress -- at least notas much as i’d like -- is fi_ing our broken health care system. (applause.)

and i took up this cause knowingit was hard -- there was a reason why no other presidenthad done it -- to makesure every american has access to quality, affordable health care, andto makesure that no american ever again has to fear one illness is going to bankruptthem. (applause.)

and the work we’ve already donehas resulted in, over the past three years, health care costsrising at theslowest pace on record. health carecosts for businesses are growing about one-thirdof the rate they were a decadeago, and we want those trends to continue.

now, we’ve had this problem withthe website. i’m not happy aboutthat. but we’re workingovertime to makesure that it gets fi_ed, because right now we’ve put in place a system,amarketplace, where people can get affordable health care plans. i promise you nobody hasbeen more frustrated. i want to go in and fi_ it myself, but i don’twrite code, so -- (laughter).

but to every american with apree_isting condition who’s been waiting for the day they couldbe covered justlike everybody else, for folks who couldn’t afford to buy their owninsurancebecause they don’t get it on the job, we’re going to fi_ the website. because theinsurance plans are there. they are good, and millions of americans arealready finding thatthey’ll gain better coverage for less cost, and it’s theright thing to do. (applause.)

now, i know that’s -- i knowhealth care is controversial, so there’s only going to be somuch support weget on that on a bipartisan basis -- until it’s working really well, andthenthey’re going to stop calling it obamacare. (laughter and applause.) they’regoing to callit something else.

one thing, though, i was talkingto your mayor and your governor about, though, is aseparate issue, which isone of the things that the affordable care act does is allow states toe_pandmedicaid to cover more of their citizens. (applause.)

and here in louisiana, that wouldbenefit about 265,000 people. andalready you’ve seenstates -- arkansas has covered -- taken this up, and they’recovering almost 14 percent of theiruninsured. republican governors in states like ohio and nevada, arizona, they’redoing it, too.oregon has alreadyreduced the number of uninsured by about 10 percent. and some of thesefolks opposed obamacare,but they did support helping their citizens who can’t get coverage.

so we want to work with everybody-- mayor, governor, insurance -- whoever it is thatwants to work with us herein louisiana to make sure that even if you don’t support the overallplan, let’sat least go ahead and make sure that the folks who don’t have health insurancerightnow can get it through an e_panded medicaid. let’s make sure we do that. (applause.) it’s theright thing to do.

and one of the reasons to do itis -- i’ve said this before; sometimes people don’t fullyappreciate it -- wealready pay for the health care of people who don’t have health insurance,wejust pay for the most e_pensive version, which is when they go to the emergencyroom.because what happens is, thehospitals have to take sick folk. they’renot just going to leavethem on the streets. but people who are sick, they wait until the very last minute. it’s muchmore e_pensive to treat them. hospitals have to figure out how to get theirmoney back, whichmeans they jack up costs for everybody who does have healthinsurance by about $1,000 perfamily.

so, as a consequence, whathappens is you’re already paying a hidden ta_ for a brokenhealth caresystem. community hospitals struggle tocare for the uninsured who can’t pay theirbills when they get sick. so it’s the right thing to do for the healthof our economies as a whole.it is apractical, pragmatic reason to do it. ithas nothing to do with politics or ideology. andthe more states that are working together, democrats andrepublicans, the better off we’regoing to be.

so the bottom line is, neworleans, we can work together to do these things, because we’vedone thembefore. we did not become the greatestnation on earth just by chance, just byaccident. we had some advantages -- really nice realestate here in the united states. butwhatwe also had were people who despite their differences -- and we come fromeverywhere and lookdifferent and have different traditions -- we understandthat this country works best when we’reworking together. and we decided to do what was necessary forour businesses and our familiesto succeed. and if we did it in the past, we can do it again.

so let’s make it easier for morebusinesses to e_pand and grow and sell more goods madein america to the restof the world. let’s make sure we’ve gotthe best ports and roads andbridges and schools. let’s make sure our young people are gettinga great education. let’s giveeverybodya chance to get ahead, not just a few at the top, but everybody -- (applause)--because if we do that, if we help our businesses grow and our communitiesthrive and ourchildren reach a little higher, then the economy is going togrow faster.

we’ll rebuild our middle classstronger. the american dream will bereal and achievable notjust for a few, but for everybody -- not just today,but for decades to come. that’s whatwe’refighting for. that’s what you’re allabout here at this port and here in new orleans. and i’mlooking forward to working with youto make sure we keep that up.

thank you. god bless you. god bless america. (applause.)

well, welcome to the white house,everybody. and that was one of the best introductions i’ve ever had. (applause.) so we’re so proud of kiara for the introduction and for sharing yourstory, and you’re just so poised. and iknow geoff canada is just out there all e_cited -- (laughter) -- and proud, andi know your mom is proud. i know she is. she should be.

kiara and the rest of these youngpeople grew up in a 97-square-block section of harlem. it’s a place where the odds used to bestacked against them every single day, even just graduating from high schoolwas a challenge. but with the help ofsome very dedicated adults and a program called the harlem children’s zone,they’re right on track to go to college. together, students, teachers, administrators, parents, community, they’rechanging the odds in this neighborhood. and that’s what we’re here to talk about today -– changing the odds forevery american child so that no matter who they are, no matter where they areborn, they have a chance to succeed in today’s economy.

now, the good news is that,thanks to the hard work and sacrifice of the american people all across thecountry over the last five years, our economy has grown stronger. our businesses have now created more than 8million new jobs since the depths of the recession. our manufacturing, our housing sectors arerebounding. our energy and technologyand auto industries are booming. we’vegot to keep our economy growing. we’vegot to make sure that everybody is sharing in that growth. we’ve got to keep creating jobs, and then we’vegot to make sure that wages and benefits are such that families can rebuild alittle bit of security. we’ve got tomake sure this recovery, which is real, leaves nobody behind. and that’s going to be my focus throughoutthe year.

this is going to be a year ofaction. that’s what the american peoplee_pect, and they’re ready and willing to pitch in and help. this is not just a job for government; thisis a job for everybody.

working people are looking forthe kind of stable, secure jobs that too often went overseas in the past coupleof decades. so ne_t week, i’ll join companies and colleges and take action toboost high-tech manufacturing -- the kind that attracts good new jobs and helpsgrow a middle class. business owners areready to play their part to hire more workers. so this month, i’m going to host ceos here at the white house not once,but twice: first to lay out specificsteps we can take to help more workers earn the skills that they need for today’snew jobs; second, they’re going to announce commitments that we’re making toput more of the long-term unemployed back to work.

and on january 28th, in my stateof the union address -- which i want all the legislators here to know i’m goingto try to keep a little shorter than usual -- (laughter) -- they’re cheeringsilently -- (laughter) -- i will mobilize the country around the nationalmission of making sure our economy offers every american who works hard a fairshot at success. anybody in this countrywho works hard should have a fair shot at success, period. it doesn’t matter where they come from, whatregion of the country, what they look like, what their last name is -- theyshould be able to succeed.

and obviously we’re coming off ofa rancorous political year, but i genuinely believe that this is not a partisanissue. because when you talk to the american people, you know that there arepeople working in soup kitchens, and people who are mentoring, and people whoare starting small businesses and hiring their neighbors, and very rarely arethey checking are they democrat or republican. there’s a sense of neighborliness that’s inherent in the american people-- we just have to tap into that.

and i’ve been very happy to seethat there are republicans like rand paul, who’s here today, who are ready toengage in this debate. that’s a goodthing. we’ve got democratic andrepublican elected officials across the country who are ready to roll up theirsleeves and get to work. and this shouldbe a challenge that unites us all.

i don’t care whether the ideasare democrat or republican. i do carethat they work. i do care that they aresubject to evaluation, and we can see if we are using ta_ dollars in a certainway, if we’re starting a certain program, i want to make sure that young peoplelike kiara are actually benefiting from them.

now, it’s one thing to say weshould help more americans get ahead, but talk is cheap. we’ve got to actually make sure that we doit. and i will work with anybody who’swilling to lay out some concrete ideas to create jobs, help more middle-classfamilies find security in today’s economy, and offer new ladders of opportunityfor folks to climb into the middle class.

and, personally, i hope we startby listening to the majority of the american people and restoring theunemployment insurance for americans who need a little help supporting theirfamilies while they look for a new job. and i’m glad the republicans and democrats in the senate are workingtogether to e_tend that lifeline. i hopetheir colleagues in the house will join them to set this right.

today i want to talk aboutsomething very particular, a specific e_ample of how we can make adifference. we are here with leaders whoare determined to change the odds in their communities the way these kids andtheir parents and dedicated citizens have changed the odds in harlem. it’s now been 50 years since presidentjohnson declared an unconditional war on poverty in america. and that groundbreaking effort created newavenues of opportunity for generations of americans. it strengthened our safety net for workingfamilies and seniors, americans with disabilities and the poor, so that when wefall -- and you never know what life brings you -- we can bounce backfaster. it made us a better country anda stronger country.

in a speech 50 years ago,president johnson talked about communities "on the outskirts ofhope where opportunitywas hard to come by." well, today’seconomic challenges are differentbut they’ve still resulted in communitieswhere in recent decades wrenching economic changehas made opportunity harderand harder to come by. there arecommunities where for toomany young people it feels like their future onlye_tends to the ne_t street corner or theoutskirts of town, too manycommunities where no matter how hard you work, your destinyfeels like it’salready been determined for you before you took that first step.

i’m not just talking aboutpockets of poverty in our inner cities. that’s the stereotype.i’mtalking about suburban neighborhoods that have been hammered by the housingcrisis. i’mtalking about manufacturingtowns that still haven’t recovered after the local plant shut downand jobsdried up. there are islands of ruralamerica where jobs are scarce -- they were scarceeven before the recession hit-- so that young people feel like if they want to actually succeed,they’ve gotto leave town, they’ve got to leave their communities.

and i’ve seen this personallyeven before i got into politics. infact, this is what drove meinto politics. i was just two years out of college when i first moved to the south sideof chicago.i was hired by a group ofchurches to help organize a community that had been devastatedwhen the localsteel plants closed their doors. and i’dwalk through neighborhoods filled up withboarded-up houses and crumblingschools, and single parents and dads who had nothing to dowith their kids, andkids who were hanging out on the street corners without any hope orprospectsfor the future.

but these churches cametogether. and then they started workingwith other non-profits andlocal businesses. and the government -- local, state and federal -- participated. and we startedgetting some things done thatgave people hope. and that e_periencetaught me thatgovernment does not have all the answers -- no amount of moneycan take the place of a lovingparent in a child’s life. but i did learn that when communities andgovernments and businessesand not-for-profits work together, we can make adifference. kiara is proof -- all theseyoungpeople are proof we can make a difference.

for the last 17 years, the harlemchildren’s zone -- the brainchild of geoffrey canada, who’shere today -- hasproven we can make a difference. and itoperated on a basic premise that eachchild will do better if all the childrenaround them are doing better. so in harlem,staff membersgo door to door and they recruit soon-to-be parents for "babycollege," preparing them forthose crucial first few months of life; makingsure that they understand how to talk to theirchild and read to their child,and sometimes working with parents to teach them how to read sothey can readto their child and give them the healthy start that they need.

and then, early childhoodeducation to get kids learning at four years old. and then acharter school that help studentssucceed all the way through high school. and medical careand healthy foods that are available close tohome. and e_ercise. i was very pleased to hearthat -- michellewas very pleased to hear that -- (laughter) -- that they’ve got a strong physedprogram. and then students gettinghelp finding internships and applying to college, and anoutstanding, dedicatedstaff that tries to make sure that nobody slips through the cracks orfallsbehind.

and this is an incredibleachievement, and the results have been tremendous. today,preschool students in the harlemchildren’s zone are better prepared for kindergarten. lastyear, a study found that students whowin a spot in one of the charter schools score higher onstandardized teststhan those who don’t. in a neighborhood where higher education was oncejustsomething that other people did, you’ve got hundreds of kids who’ve now gone tocollege.

and harlem is not the onlycommunity that’s found success taking on these challengestogether. in cincinnati, a focus on education hashelped to make sure more kids are ready forkindergarten. in nashville, they’ve redesigned high schoolsand boosted graduation rates byalmost 20 percent over the past 12 years. in milwaukee, they’ve cut teen pregnancy inhalf.

every community is different,with different needs and different approaches. butcommunities that are making the most progress on these issues havesome things in common.they don’t lookfor a single silver bullet; instead they bring together local governmentandnonprofits and businesses and teachers and parents around a shared goal. that’s whatgeoffrey did when he started theharlem children’s zone. government wasinvolved -- so don’tbe confused here, it has an important role to play. and already there are governmentresourcesgoing into these communities. but it’simportant that our faith institutions and ourbusinesses and the parents andthe communities themselves are involved in designing andthinking through howdo we move forward.

and the second thing is they’reholding themselves accountable by delivering measurableresults. we don’t fund things, we don’t start projectsjust for the sake of starting them.they’vegot to work. if they don’t work weshould try something else. and sometimesthose of uswho care deeply about advancing opportunity aren’t willing tosubject some of theseprograms to that test: do they work?

in my state of the union addresslast year, i announced our commitment to identifymore communities like these-- urban, rural, tribal -- where dedicated citizens aredetermined to make adifference and turn things around. andwe challenged them. we said ifyou candemonstrate the ability and the will to launch an all-encompassing,all-hands-on-deckapproach to reducing poverty and e_panding opportunity, we’llhelp you get the resourcesto do it. we’lltake resources from some of the programs that we’re already doingandconcentrate them. we’ll make sure thatour agencies are working together more effectively.we’ll put in talent to help you plan. but we’re also going to hold you accountableand measureyour progress.

my friends:

this is not a fireside chat on war. it is a talk on national security; because the nub of the whole purpose of your president is to keep you now, and your children later, and your grandchildren much later, out of a last-ditch war for the preservation of american independence, and all of the things that american independence means to you and to me and to ours.

tonight, in the presence of a world crisis, my mind goes back eight years to a night in the midst of a domestic crisis. it was a time when the wheels of american industry were grinding to a full stop, when the whole banking system of our country had ceased to function. i well remember that while i sat in my study in the white house, preparing to talk with the people of the united states, i had before my eyes the picture of all those americans with whom i was talking. i saw the workmen in the mills, the mines, the factories, the girl behind the counter, the small shopkeeper, the farmer doing his spring plowing, the widows and the old men wondering about their life"s savings. i tried to convey to the great mass of american people what the banking crisis meant to them in their daily lives.

tonight, i want to do the same thing, with the same people, in this new crisis which faces america. we met the issue of 1933 with courage and realism. we face this new crisis, this new threat to the security of our nation, with the same courage and realism. never before since jamestown and plymouth rock has our american civilization been in such danger as now. for on september 27th, 1940 -- this year -- by an agreement signed in berlin, three powerful nations, two in europe and one in asia, joined themselves together in the threat that if the united states of america interfered with or blocked the e_pansion program of these three nations -- a program aimed at world control -- they would unite in ultimate action against the united states.

the nazi masters of germany have made it clear that they intend not only to dominate all life and thought in their own country, but also to enslave the whole of europe, and then to use the resources of europe to dominate the rest of the world. it was only three weeks ago that their leader stated this: "there are two worlds that stand opposed to each other." and then in defiant reply to his opponents he said this: "others are correct when they say: "with this world we cannot ever reconcile ourselves.""" i can beat any other power in the world." so said the leader of the nazis.

in other words, the a_is not merely admits but the a_is proclaims that there can be no ultimate peace between their philosophy -- their philosophy of government -- and our philosophy of government. in view of the nature of this undeniable threat, it can be asserted, properly and categorically, that the united states has no right or reason to encourage talk of peace until the day shall come when there is a clear intention on the part of the aggressor nations to abandon all thought of dominating or conquering the world.

at this moment the forces of the states that are leagued against all peoples who live in freedom are being held away from our shores. the germans and the italians are being blocked on the other side of the atlantic by the british and by the greeks, and by thousands of soldiers and sailors who were able to escape from subjugated countries. in asia the japanese are being engaged by the chinese nation in another great defense. in the pacific ocean is our fleet.

some of our people like to believe that wars in europe and in asia are of no concern to us. but it is a matter of most vital concern to us that european and asiatic war-makers should not gain control of the oceans which lead to this hemisphere. one hundred and seventeen years ago the monroe doctrine was conceived by our government as a measure of defense in the face of a threat against this hemisphere by an alliance in continental europe. thereafter, we stood guard in the atlantic, with the british as neighbors. there was no treaty. there was no "unwritten agreement." and yet there was the feeling, proven correct by history, that we as neighbors could settle any disputes in peaceful fashion. and the fact is that during the whole of this time the western hemisphere has remained free from aggression from europe or from asia.

does anyone seriously believe that we need to fear attack anywhere in the americas while a free britain remains our most powerful naval neighbor in the atlantic? and does anyone seriously believe, on the other hand, that we could rest easy if the a_is powers were our neighbors there? if great britain goes down, the a_is powers will control the continents of europe, asia, africa, austral-asia, and the high seas. and they will be in a position to bring enormous military and naval resources against this hemisphere. it is no e_aggeration to say that all of us in all the americas would be living at the point of a gun -- a gun loaded with e_plosive bullets, economic as well as military. we should enter upon a new and terrible era in which the whole world, our hemisphere included, would be run by threats of brute force. and to survive in such a world, we would have to convert ourselves permanently into a militaristic power on the basis of war economy.

some of us like to believe that even if britain falls, we are still safe, because of the broad e_panse of the atlantic and of the pacific. but the width of those oceans is not what it was in the days of clipper ships. at one point between africa and brazil the distance is less than it is from washington to denver, colorado, five hours for the latest type of bomber. and at the north end of the pacific ocean, america and asia almost touch each other. why, even today we have planes that could fly from the british isles to new england and back again without refueling. and remember that the range of the modern bomber is ever being increased.

during the past week many people in all parts of the nation have told me what they wanted me to say tonight. almost all of them e_pressed a courageous desire to hear the plain truth about the gravity of the situation. one telegram, however, e_pressed the attitude of the small minority who want to see no evil and hear no evil, even though they know in their hearts that evil e_ists. that telegram begged me not to tell again of the ease with which our american cities could be bombed by any hostile power which had gained bases in this western hemisphere. the gist of that telegram was: "please, mr. president, don"t frighten us by telling us the facts." frankly and definitely there is danger ahead -- danger against which we must prepare. but we well know that we cannot escape danger, or the fear of danger, by crawling into bed and pulling the covers over our heads.

some nations of europe were bound by solemn nonintervention pacts with germany. other nations were assured by germany that they need never fear invasion. nonintervention pact or not, the fact remains that they were attacked, overrun, thrown into modern slavery at an hour"s notice -- or even without any notice at all. as an e_iled leader of one of these nations said to me the other day, "the notice was a minus quantity. it was given to my government two hours after german troops had poured into my country in a hundred places." the fate of these nations tells us what it means to live at the point of a nazi gun.

the nazis have justified such actions by various pious frauds. one of these frauds is the claim that they are occupying a nation for the purpose of "restoring order." another is that they are occupying or controlling a nation on the e_cuse that they are "protecting it" against the aggression of somebody else. for e_ample, germany has said that she was occupying belgium to save the belgians from the british. would she then hesitate to say to any south american country: "we are occupying you to protect you from aggression by the united states"? belgium today is being used as an invasion base against britain, now fighting for its life. and any south american country, in nazi hands, would always constitute a jumping off place for german attack on any one of the other republics of this hemisphere.

analyze for yourselves the future of two other places even nearer to germany if the nazis won. could ireland hold out? would irish freedom be permitted as an amazing pet e_ception in an unfree world? or the islands of the azores, which still fly the flag of portugal after five centuries? you and i think of hawaii as an outpost of defense in the pacific. and yet the azores are closer to our shores in the atlantic than hawaii is on the other side.

there are those who say that the a_is powers would never have any desire to attack the western hemisphere. that is the same dangerous form of wishful thinking which has destroyed the powers of resistance of so many conquered peoples. the plain facts are that the nazis have proclaimed, time and again, that all other races are their inferiors and therefore subject to their orders. and most important of all, the vast resources and wealth of this american hemisphere constitute the most tempting loot in all of the round world.

let us no longer blind ourselves to the undeniable fact that the evil forces which have crushed and undermined and corrupted so many others are already within our own gates. your government knows much about them and every day is ferreting them out. their secret emissaries are active in our own and in neighboring countries. they seek to stir up suspicion and dissension, to cause internal strife. they try to turn capital against labor, and vice versa. they try to reawaken long slumbering racial and religious enmities which should have no place in this country. they are active in every group that promotes intolerance. they e_ploit for their own ends our own natural abhorrence of war. these trouble-breeders have but one purpose. it is to divide our people, to divide them into hostile groups and to destroy our unity and shatter our will to defend ourselves.

there are also american citizens, many of them in high places, who, unwittingly in most cases, are aiding and abetting the work of these agents. i do not charge these american citizens with being foreign agents. but i do charge them with doing e_actly the kind of work that the dictators want done in the united states. these people not only believe that we can save our own skins by shutting our eyes to the fate of other nations. some of them go much further than that. they say that we can and should become the friends and even the partners of the a_is powers. some of them even suggest that we should imitate the methods of the dictatorships. but americans never can and never will do that.

the e_perience of the past two years has proven beyond doubt that no nation can appease the nazis. no man can tame a tiger into a kitten by stroking it. there can be no appeasement with ruthlessness. there can be no reasoning with an incendiary bomb. we know now that a nation can have peace with the nazis only at the price of total surrender. even the people of italy have been forced to become accomplices of the nazis; but at this moment they do not know how soon they will be embraced to death by their allies.

the american appeasers ignore the warning to be found in the fate of austria, czechoslovakia, poland, norway, belgium, the netherlands, denmark, and france. they tell you that the a_is powers are going to win anyway; that all of this bloodshed in the world could be saved, that the united states might just as well throw its influence into the scale of a dictated peace and get the best out of it that we can. they call it a "negotiated peace." nonsense! is it a negotiated peace if a gang of outlaws surrounds your community and on threat of e_termination makes you pay tribute to save your own skins? for such a dictated peace would be no peace at all. it would be only another armistice, leading to the most gigantic armament race and the most devastating trade wars in all history. and in these contests the americas would offer the only real resistance to the a_is power. with all their vaunted efficiency, with all their parade of pious purpose in this war, there are still in their background the concentration camp and the servants of god in chains.

the history of recent years proves that the shootings and the chains and the concentration camps are not simply the transient tools but the very altars of modern dictatorships. they may talk of a "new order" in the world, but what they have in mind is only a revival of the oldest and the worst tyranny. in that there is no liberty, no religion, no hope. the proposed "new order" is the very opposite of a united states of europe or a united states of asia. it is not a government based upon the consent of the governed. it is not a union of ordinary, self-respecting men and women to protect themselves and their freedom and their dignity from oppression. it is an unholy alliance of power and pelf to dominate and to enslave the human race.

the british people and their allies today are conducting an active war against this unholy alliance. our own future security is greatly dependent on the outcome of that fight. our ability to "keep out of war" is going to be affected by that outcome. thinking in terms of today and tomorrow, i make the direct statement to the american people that there is far less chance of the united states getting into war if we do all we can now to support the nations defending themselves against attack by the a_is than if we acquiesce in their defeat, submit tamely to an a_is victory, and wait our turn to be the object of attack in another war later on.

if we are to be completely honest with ourselves, we must admit that there is risk in any course we may take. but i deeply believe that the great majority of our people agree that the course that i advocate involves the least risk now and the greatest hope for world peace in the future.

the people of europe who are defending themselves do not ask us to do their fighting. they ask us for the implements of war, the planes, the tanks, the guns, the freighters which will enable them to fight for their liberty and for our security. emphatically, we must get these weapons to them, get them to them in sufficient volume and quickly enough so that we and our children will be saved the agony and suffering of war which others have had to endure.

let not the defeatists tell us that it is too late. it will never be earlier. tomorrow will be later than today.

certain facts are self-evident.

in a military sense great britain and the british empire are today the spearhead of resistance to world conquest. and they are putting up a fight which will live forever in the story of human gallantry. there is no demand for sending an american e_peditionary force outside our own borders. there is no intention by any member of your government to send such a force. you can therefore, nail, nail any talk about sending armies to europe as deliberate untruth. our national policy is not directed toward war. its sole purpose is to keep war away from our country and away from our people.

democracy"s fight against world conquest is being greatly aided, and must be more greatly aided, by the rearmament of the united states and by sending every ounce and every ton of munitions and supplies that we can possibly spare to help the defenders who are in the front lines. and it is no more un-neutral for us to do that than it is for sweden, russia, and other nations near germany to send steel and ore and oil and other war materials into germany every day in the week.

we are planning our own defense with the utmost urgency, and in its vast scale we must integrate the war needs of britain and the other free nations which are resisting aggression. this is not a matter of sentiment or of controversial personal opinion. it is a matter of realistic, practical military policy, based on the advice of our military e_perts who are in close touch with e_isting warfare. these military and naval e_perts and the members of the congress and the administration have a single-minded purpose: the defense of the united states.

this nation is making a great effort to produce everything that is necessary in this emergency, and with all possible speed. and this great effort requires great sacrifice. i would ask no one to defend a democracy which in turn would not defend every one in the nation against want and privation. the strength of this nation shall not be diluted by the failure of the government to protect the economic well-being of its citizens. if our capacity to produce is limited by machines, it must ever be remembered that these machines are operated by the skill and the stamina of the workers.

as the government is determined to protect the rights of the workers, so the nation has a right to e_pect that the men who man the machines will discharge their full responsibilities to the urgent needs of defense. the worker possesses the same human dignity and is entitled to the same security of position as the engineer or the manager or the owner. for the workers provide the human power that turns out the destroyers, and the planes, and the tanks. the nation e_pects our defense industries to continue operation without interruption by strikes or lockouts. it e_pects and insists that management and workers will reconcile their differences by voluntary or legal means, to continue to produce the supplies that are so sorely needed. and on the economic side of our great defense program, we are, as you know, bending every effort to maintain stability of prices and with that the stability of the cost of living.

nine days ago i announced the setting up of a more effective organization to direct our gigantic efforts to increase the production of munitions. the appropriation of vast sums of money and a well-coordinated e_ecutive direction of our defense efforts are not in themselves enough. guns, planes, ships and many other things have to be built in the factories and the arsenals of america. they have to be produced by workers and managers and engineers with the aid of machines which in turn have to be built by hundreds of thousands of workers throughout the land. in this great work there has been splendid cooperation between the government and industry and labor. and i am very thankful.

american industrial genius, unmatched throughout all the world in the solution of production problems, has been called upon to bring its resources and its talents into action. manufacturers of watches, of farm implements, of linotypes and cash registers and automobiles, and sewing machines and lawn mowers and locomotives, are now making fuses and bomb packing crates and telescope mounts and shells and pistols and tanks.

but all of our present efforts are not enough. we must have more ships, more guns, more planes -- more of everything. and this can be accomplished only if we discard the notion of "business as usual." this job cannot be done merely by superimposing on the e_isting productive facilities the added requirements of the nation for defense. our defense efforts must not be blocked by those who fear the future consequences of surplus plant capacity. the possible consequences of failure of our defense efforts now are much more to be feared. and after the present needs of our defense are past, a proper handling of the country"s peacetime needs will require all of the new productive capacity, if not still more. no pessimistic policy about the future of america shall delay the immediate e_pansion of those industries essential to defense. we need them.

i want to make it clear that it is the purpose of the nation to build now with all possible speed every machine, every arsenal, every factory that we need to manufacture our defense material. we have the men, the skill, the wealth, and above all, the will. i am confident that if and when production of consumer or lu_ury goods in certain industries requires the use of machines and raw materials that are essential for defense purposes, then such production must yield, and will gladly yield, to our primary and compelling purpose.

so i appeal to the owners of plants, to the managers, to the workers, to our own government employees to put every ounce of effort into producing these munitions swiftly and without stint. with this appeal i give you the pledge that all of us who are officers of your government will devote ourselves to the same whole-hearted e_tent to the great task that lies ahead.

as planes and ships and guns and shells are produced, your government, with its defense e_perts, can then determine how best to use them to defend this hemisphere. the decision as to how much shall be sent abroad and how much shall remain at home must be made on the basis of our overall military necessities.

we must be the great arsenal of democracy.

for us this is an emergency as serious as war itself. we must apply ourselves to our task with the same resolution, the same sense of urgency, the same spirit of patriotism and sacrifice as we would show were we at war.

we have furnished the british great material support and we will furnish far more in the future. there will be no "bottlenecks" in our determination to aid great britain. no dictator, no combination of dictators, will weaken that determination by threats of how they will construe that determination. the british have received invaluable military support from the heroic greek army and from the forces of all the governments in e_ile. their strength is growing. it is the strength of men and women who value their freedom more highly than they value their lives.

i believe that the a_is powers are not going to win this war. i base that belief on the latest and best of information.

we have no e_cuse for defeatism. we have every good reason for hope -- hope for peace, yes, and hope for the defense of our civilization and for the building of a better civilization in the future. i have the profound conviction that the american people are now determined to put forth a mightier effort than they have ever yet made to increase our production of all the implements of defense, to meet the threat to our democratic faith.

美國總統(tǒng)羅斯福演講稿：

我的朋友們：

這不是戰(zhàn)爭的爐邊談話。這是關(guān)于國家安全的講話;因為你們的總統(tǒng)的目的，關(guān)鍵是要保持現(xiàn)在的你，和你的孩子后，你的孫子要晚得多，從最后的戰(zhàn)爭來維護美國的獨立，和所有的事情，美國的獨立性意味著你和我，我們的。

今晚，面對世界性危機，我的思緒又回到了八年前的一個晚上的國內(nèi)危機之中。當(dāng)時的美國工業(yè)的車輪被磨到完全停止時，我們整個國家的銀行體系已停止功能。我清楚地記得，當(dāng)我坐在我的研究在白宮，準(zhǔn)備在美國的人的談話中，我曾在我的眼前所有美國人的圖片的人我是說。我看到工人們在米爾斯，礦山，工廠，柜臺后面的女孩，小掌柜，農(nóng)民做他的春耕，寡婦和老男人不知道自己一生的積蓄。我試圖傳達(dá)給美國人民銀行危機對他們意味著什么在他們的日常生活，大眾。

今晚，我想做同樣的事情，與相同的人，在這個新的危機，面臨美國。我們遇到了1933的勇氣和現(xiàn)實問題。我們面臨新的危機，這對我們國家安全的新威脅，以同樣的勇氣和現(xiàn)實主義。以前從來沒有從詹姆斯敦和普利茅斯搖滾我們的美國文明現(xiàn)在是危險。在今年的1940年9月27日————在柏林簽署了一項協(xié)議，三個強大的國家，兩個在歐洲和亞洲，連接起來的威脅，如果美國對美國的干擾或阻止這三個國家的擴張計劃——一項旨在控制世界——他們會團結(jié)在最終的行動反對美國。

納粹德國的主子們明確表示，他們打算不僅主宰一切的生活和他們自己國家的思想，但也使整個歐洲，然后利用歐洲的資源來統(tǒng)治世界。它只有三個星期前，他們的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人說："有兩個世界，反對對方。"然后在挑釁的回答他的對手，他說："別人都正確時，他們說："這個世界上我們永遠(yuǎn)無法調(diào)和自己。""我可以擊敗任何其他權(quán)力在世界上。"納粹的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人這樣說。

換句話說，軸不僅僅承認(rèn)，但軸宣稱，最終沒有可和平之間的哲學(xué)——他們的哲學(xué)的政府——和我們的政府理念。在這個不可否認(rèn)的威脅的性質(zhì)來看，可以說，正確和絕對，認(rèn)為美國沒有任何權(quán)利或理由鼓勵談?wù)摵推街钡奖禺?dāng)有對侵略國部分明確意圖放棄所有的控制或征服世界的思想。

作為美國總統(tǒng)，我呼吁國家的努力。我叫它在這個國家，我們的愛和尊敬，我們很榮幸和驕傲的服務(wù)名稱。我號召我們的人民有絕對的信心，我們共同的事業(yè)將極大的成功。

在這一時刻，所有人都聯(lián)合起來反對自由生活正在舉行遠(yuǎn)離海岸的美國軍隊。德國人和意大利人被封鎖在大西洋彼岸的英國，由希臘人，以及數(shù)以千計的士兵和水手得以逃脫被征服的國家。在亞洲，日本正被另一個偉大的中華民族從事國防。在太平洋艦隊。

我們中的一些人認(rèn)為，戰(zhàn)爭在歐洲和亞洲，我們都不關(guān)心。但這是一個最重要的關(guān)注，美國，歐洲和亞洲的戰(zhàn)爭者不應(yīng)獲得導(dǎo)致這個半球海洋控制。一百一十七年前，夢露主義的構(gòu)思是由我國政府在威脅這個半球的聯(lián)盟在歐洲大陸面臨的防御措施。此后，我們守在大西洋，與英國的鄰居。沒有條約。沒有不成文的協(xié)議。"但有感覺，被歷史證明是正確的，我們的鄰居會在和平的方式解決爭議。而事實上，此時的西半球始終沒有來自歐洲和亞洲的侵略的整個期間。

有沒有人真的相信，我們需要擔(dān)心的攻擊在美洲任何地方而自由英國仍然是我們最強大的海軍在大西洋的鄰居?有人相信，在另一方面，我們可以放心如果軸心國是我們的鄰居那里嗎?如果英國下山，軸心國將控制歐洲大陸，亞洲，非洲，亞洲和南半球，公海。他們將在一個位置，帶來了巨大的軍事和海軍資源對這個半球。毫不夸張地說，在所有美洲我們都將生活在槍口——槍裝滿炸藥的子彈，經(jīng)濟以及軍事。我們要進入這整個世界的一個新的和可怕的時代，我們的大腦半球在內(nèi)，將由武力威脅。而在這樣一個世界生存下去，我們必須改變自己的永久戰(zhàn)爭的經(jīng)濟基礎(chǔ)上軍國主義的力量。

我們中的一些人認(rèn)為，即使英國的瀑布，我們?nèi)匀皇前踩?，因為浩瀚的大西洋和太平洋。但這些海洋寬度不在三桅帆船的日子是什么。在一個點在非洲和巴西之間的距離是小于它是從華盛頓到丹佛，科羅拉多州，為轟炸機的最新型的五小時。在太平洋的北端，美國和亞洲幾乎相互接觸。為什么，甚至今天我們能飛的飛機從英國到新英格蘭再不加油。記住：現(xiàn)代轟炸機范圍日益增加。

在過去的一周在全國各地有很多人告訴我，他們希望我說今晚。幾乎所有的人都表達(dá)了一個勇敢的渴望聽到有關(guān)形勢的嚴(yán)峻事實。然而一封電報，表達(dá)，誰想要非禮勿視、非禮勿聽少數(shù)的態(tài)度，即使他們在心里知道，邪惡的存在。那封電報請求我不要告訴了我們與緩解美國城市可以被任何敵對勢力已經(jīng)在這個西半球獲得基地轟炸。這封電報大意是："請你，總統(tǒng)先生，不要嚇唬我們告訴我們的事實。"老實說，肯定是前面有危險——危險對我們必須做好準(zhǔn)備。但我們知道，我們不能逃避危險，或?qū)ξｋU的恐懼，爬行到床上，把被子蒙住頭。

歐洲一些國家的不干涉協(xié)定莊嚴(yán)德國束縛。其他國家是德國的保證永遠(yuǎn)不必?fù)?dān)憂入侵。不干涉協(xié)定或不，事實上，他們被攻擊，超限，扔到現(xiàn)代奴隸制一小時通知——甚至沒有注意到這一切。作為一個流亡領(lǐng)袖之一，這些國家說一天我，"通知負(fù)量。這是給我的政府后，德國軍隊已經(jīng)涌入我國一百處兩個小時"。這些國家的命運告訴我們，生活在納粹的槍口意味著什么。

納粹已經(jīng)由各種虔誠的欺詐行為。一個騙子是聲稱他們正處在一個國家為目的的"恢復(fù)秩序"。另一個原因是，他們占有或控制的國家，他們借口"保護"對別人的侵略。例如，德國已經(jīng)表示，她是從英國占領(lǐng)比利時挽救比利時。她會再猶豫說任何南美國家："我們正處在你保護你免遭美國的侵略?比利時今天是作為反對英國侵略基地，現(xiàn)在戰(zhàn)斗的生活。和其他南美國家，在納粹手中，總是會構(gòu)成一個跳發(fā)生在這個半球的其它共和國的任何一個德國的進攻。

你們兩個其他地方未來的分析更近，如果到德國納粹贏得。就愛爾蘭呢?將愛爾蘭自由被允許在不自由的世界，一個驚人的寵物例外?或亞速爾群島的島嶼，它還飛葡萄牙國旗經(jīng)過五個世紀(jì)?你和我認(rèn)為夏威夷是太平洋地區(qū)的防御前哨。然而，亞速爾群島是大西洋更接近我們的海岸到夏威夷的另一邊。

有人說，軸心國，不會有任何攻擊欲望西半球。那是一廂情愿的破壞了許多被征服民族抵抗力量同樣危險的形式。簡單的事實是，納粹黨已經(jīng)宣布，一次又一次，所有其他種族都是他們的人因此受到他們的命令。最重要的是，廣大富饒的美洲是所有的一輪世界最誘人的戰(zhàn)利品。

讓我們不再盲目的自己，已壓碎破壞和損壞的很多人已經(jīng)在我們自己的大門的邪惡勢力不可否認(rèn)的事實。你的政府對他們很了解，每一天都是找出這些錯誤。他們的秘密使者都是我們自己和周邊國家的活動。他們試圖激起猜疑和糾紛，造成內(nèi)亂。他們試圖把資本和勞動，反之亦然。他們試圖喚醒沉睡的種族和宗教仇恨長應(yīng)已在這個國家沒有的地方。他們在每一組中，促進不耐受是活躍的。他們利用自己結(jié)束自己的天然憎惡戰(zhàn)爭。這些麻煩的飼養(yǎng)者的目的只有一個。它是把我們的人，把他們分為敵對的團體和破壞我們的團結(jié)，粉碎了我們會為自己辯護。

也有美國公民，他們中的許多人在高的地方，誰，不知不覺地在大多數(shù)情況下，是協(xié)助及教唆這些藥物的工作。我不收這些美國公民和外國代理人。但我卻指控他們做這樣的工作，獨裁的人們想在美國做的。這些人不僅相信我們可以通過關(guān)閉我們的眼睛，其他國家的命運，拯救我們自己的皮膚。他們中的一些人遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不止這些。他們說，我們可以而且應(yīng)該成為朋友，甚至是軸心國伙伴。他們中的一些人甚至認(rèn)為我們應(yīng)該效法的獨裁統(tǒng)治的方法。但美國人永遠(yuǎn)不會永遠(yuǎn)不會那樣做。

過去兩年的經(jīng)驗已經(jīng)證明，毫無疑問，沒有一個國家能安撫納粹。沒有人能馴服老虎變成一只小貓撫摸它。對殘暴行為是不能姑息。有可以用燃燒彈沒有推理?，F(xiàn)在我們知道，一個國家可以與納粹分子只有在徹底投降的代價的和平。即使意大利人被迫成為納粹同謀;但他們此刻不知道很快他們將接受死亡，他們的盟友。

不管是在美國和奧地利，捷克斯洛伐克，波蘭，挪威，比利時，命運發(fā)現(xiàn)警告荷蘭，丹麥，法國。他們告訴你，軸心國要贏得;世界上所有的流血的事件是可以被挽救的，美國或許也將影響到一個支配的和平的規(guī)模和得到最好的，我們可以。他們稱之為"和平談判的廢話。"!這是一個和平談判如果一伙不法之徒包圍你的社區(qū)和滅絕的威脅讓你表示敬意，拯救自己的皮膚?這種支配的和平就沒有和平。它只會是另一個停戰(zhàn)，導(dǎo)致整個歷史中最巨大的軍備競賽和最具破壞性的貿(mào)易戰(zhàn)。在這些比賽美洲將軸功率提供的唯一真正的阻力。他們所有的自負(fù)的效率，與他們所有的游行的虔誠的目的在這場戰(zhàn)爭中，仍有其背景中的鏈的集中營里，神的仆人。

近幾年來的歷史證明，槍擊鏈和集中營的不僅僅是短暫的工具，但現(xiàn)代獨裁統(tǒng)治的祭壇。他們可以說是一個"新秩序"的世界，但他們心目中只有一個復(fù)興的最古老和最壞的暴君。在沒有自由，沒有宗教，沒有希望。所提出的"新秩序"是一個美國的歐洲或美國亞洲恰恰相反。它不是一個政府基于人民的同意。這不是一個普通的聯(lián)盟，自尊的男人和女人來保護自己和自己的自由和尊嚴(yán)的壓迫。這是一個邪惡聯(lián)盟的權(quán)力和財富支配和奴役人類。

英國人和他們的盟友，現(xiàn)在正在進行積極的對抗這邪惡聯(lián)盟。我們自己的未來的安全在很大程度上取決于這場戰(zhàn)斗的結(jié)果。我們的"不戰(zhàn)"的能力將取決于這個結(jié)果。思想上的今天和明天，我將直接聲明美國人民有更少的機會，美國進入戰(zhàn)爭，如果我們所做的一切都是我們現(xiàn)在可以支持國家保衛(wèi)自己免受攻擊的軸比如果我們接受他們的失敗，提交馴順的軸線的勝利，和等待我們的將是在后來的另一場戰(zhàn)爭攻擊的對象。

如果我們對自己誠實，我們必須承認(rèn)有風(fēng)險的任何過程中我們可以采取。但我深信，我國絕大多數(shù)人同意，我提倡的課程包括風(fēng)險最小的現(xiàn)在和未來世界和平的最大希望的。

歐洲的人民在捍衛(wèi)自己，不要求我們替他們打仗。他們問我們的戰(zhàn)爭，實現(xiàn)了飛機，坦克，大炮，貨船，使他們能為自己的自由和我們的安全而戰(zhàn)。重點，我們必須把這些武器給他們，讓他們在足夠量的迅速足以使我們和我們的孩子將被保存的痛苦和苦難的戰(zhàn)爭，其他人不得不忍受。

不要讓失敗主義者告訴我們，它是太晚了。它將不會早。明天要比今天更遲。

一定的事實是不言而喻的。

在軍事上說，英國和英帝國的今天是抵抗征服世界的先鋒。他們堅持戰(zhàn)斗，這將永遠(yuǎn)活在人類的勇敢的故事。沒有要求美國派遠(yuǎn)征軍到國外。有沒有意向你們政府的任何成員發(fā)送這樣的力量。你可以因此，釘，釘約出兵歐洲任何故意不說話。我們的國家政策不是走向戰(zhàn)爭。它的唯一目的是讓戰(zhàn)爭離開我們的國家和我們的人民遠(yuǎn)離。

民主的反對征服全世界正在幫助很大，必須更多的幫助很大，由美國重整軍備和發(fā)送的每一盎司和軍需供應(yīng)每噸，我們可以備用幫助那些在前線守軍。這是沒有更多的中性點為我們做的比它是瑞典，俄羅斯，德國和其他國家附近把鋼鐵、礦石、石油和其他戰(zhàn)爭物資到德國一禮拜中的每一天。

我們最緊迫的我們自己的防衛(wèi)計劃，并在其龐大的規(guī)模就必須把英國和其他自由國家抵抗侵略戰(zhàn)爭的需要。這不是一個問題，情緒或有爭議的個人意見。這是一個現(xiàn)實的，實際的軍事政策，基于我們的軍事專家誰有緊密的聯(lián)系，與現(xiàn)有的戰(zhàn)爭的建議。這些軍事和海軍專家和國會的成員和政府有一個專一的目的：美國的防御。

這個國家正在產(chǎn)生的一切，在這緊急需要很大的努力，并盡速。這種努力需要偉大的犧牲。我會讓無人防守的民主又不會保衛(wèi)每個人對抗國家要與貧困。這個國家的強度不應(yīng)以政府未能保護其公民的經(jīng)濟福祉稀釋。如果我們的生產(chǎn)能力是有限的機器，它將永遠(yuǎn)記得這些機器的技能和工人的體力工作。

作為政府決意保護工人的權(quán)利，因此，國家有權(quán)要求人的機器將履行其全權(quán)防御的迫切需要。工人們擁有相同的人格尊嚴(yán)和有權(quán)的位置相同的安全工程師或經(jīng)理或老板。為員工提供人力，原來的驅(qū)逐艦，和飛機，坦克和。國家希望我們的國防工業(yè)繼續(xù)運行不受罷工或停工中斷。預(yù)計，堅持管理和員工將自愿或法律手段調(diào)和他們之間的分歧，繼續(xù)生產(chǎn)，所以急需的物資。在我們偉大的防御計劃，經(jīng)濟方面我們是，你知道的，彎曲的一切努力，生活成本的穩(wěn)定性保持穩(wěn)定的價格。

九天前我宣布建立一個更有效的組織來指導(dǎo)我們的巨大努力增加軍_生產(chǎn)。的巨額資金撥款和協(xié)調(diào)執(zhí)行方向我們的防御措施本身并不足夠。槍炮，飛機，船舶和其他許多事情都必須建立在工廠和美國的核武庫。他們必須由工人和管理人員和工程師制作的這反過來又是由成千上萬的工人在陸地的機器的幫助。在這個偉大的工作已經(jīng)有政府、行業(yè)和勞動之間的良好合作。我很感激。

美國工業(yè)界的天才，無與倫比的全世界的生產(chǎn)問題的解決，已經(jīng)呼吁，將以其聰明才智為行動。的手表制造商，農(nóng)具，對linotypes和收銀機和汽車，和縫紉機和割草機和機車，現(xiàn)在使熔斷器和炸彈的包裝箱和望遠(yuǎn)鏡支架和貝殼和槍和坦克。

但我們所有的努力是不夠的。我們必須有更多的船只，更多的槍，更多的飛機——更多的東西。這可以當(dāng)我們拋棄了"照常營業(yè)的概念。"這工作不能由疊加在現(xiàn)有的生產(chǎn)設(shè)施，增加國防的需要僅僅做。我們的防守努力不要被那些擔(dān)心將來工廠生產(chǎn)能力過剩的后果的封鎖。我們的防御措施失效的可能后果現(xiàn)在更是可怕的。在我們的國防需求現(xiàn)狀是過去，正確處理國家的和平時期，需要將要求所有新的生產(chǎn)能力，如果不是更。沒有對美國前途悲觀的政策應(yīng)當(dāng)延緩這些行業(yè)必不可少的防御即時擴張。我們需要他們。

我想說清楚，它的目的是現(xiàn)在盡快地建立每一臺機器，每一個阿森納，每一個工廠，我們需要我們的國防材料制造。我們有人，技能，財富，最重要的是，將。我相信，如果在某些行業(yè)的生產(chǎn)消費品和奢侈品需要機器，用于國防目的是必不可少的原料使用，那么這樣的生產(chǎn)一定產(chǎn)量，而且會心甘情愿地，我們的主要的和令人信服的目的。

因此我號召工廠的業(yè)主，對管理人員，對工人，我們自己的政府雇員把一點一滴的努力為生產(chǎn)軍_和毫不吝惜地。這一呼吁我給你的承諾，我們所有的人都是你的政府官員將致力于同全心全意地去謊言的偉大任務(wù)。

由于生產(chǎn)，大炮和炮彈的政府，它的國防專家，可以決定如何最好地使用它們來保衛(wèi)這個半球。決定把多少將被派往國外，多少要留在家里，必須對我們的整體軍事用品的基礎(chǔ)上。

我們必須成為民主國家的兵工廠。

對我們來說這是緊急和戰(zhàn)爭本身一樣嚴(yán)重。我們必須致力于我們的任務(wù)具有相同的分辨率，同樣的緊迫感，同樣的愛國主義精神和犧牲，我們將展示我們的戰(zhàn)爭。

我們已經(jīng)給英國偉大的物質(zhì)上的支持，我們將為今后更遠(yuǎn)。將不會有"瓶頸"決心幫助英國。沒有獨裁的人，沒有結(jié)合的獨裁的人，將削弱的威脅，確定如何解釋，測定。英國已收到從英雄的希臘軍隊從流亡在外的所有政府軍隊寶貴的軍事支持。他們的力量是成長。這是男人和女人誰珍惜他們的自由生活比他們的價值更高的強度。

我相信，軸心國不會贏得這場戰(zhàn)爭。我相信最新和最好的信息庫。

我們沒有理由失敗。我們有理由希望——希望和平，是的，希望對我們文明的防御和在未來更好的文明建設(shè)。我認(rèn)為美國人民現(xiàn)在決定提出一個更強大的力量比他們曾經(jīng)還增加我們的防御所有實現(xiàn)生產(chǎn)的信念，以滿足我們的民主信仰的威脅。

作為美國總統(tǒng)，我呼吁國家的努力。我叫它在這個國家，我們的愛和尊敬，我們很榮幸和驕傲的服務(wù)名稱。我號召我們的人民有絕對的信心，我們共同的事業(yè)將極大的成功。

thank you all. thank you so much. thank you. thank you all very much. you know, i always feel welcome at miami-dade college. this is a place that welcomes everyone with their hearts set on the future – a place where hope leads to achievement, and striving leads to success. for all of us, it is just the place to be in the campaign that begins today.

we are 17 months from the time for choosing. the stakes for america"s future are about asgreat as they come. our prosperity and our security are in the balance. so is opportunity, inthis nation where every life matters and everyone has the right to rise.

already, the choice is taking shape. the party now in the white house is planning a no-suspense primary, for a no-change election. to hold onto power. to slog on with the sameagenda under another name: that"s our opponents" call to action this time around. that"s allthey"ve got left.

and you and i know that america deserves better.

they have offered a progressive agenda that includes everything but progress. they areresponsible for the slowest economic recovery ever, the biggest debt increases ever, amassive ta_ increase on the middle class, the relentless buildup of the regulatory state, andthe swift, mindless drawdown of a military that was generations in the making.

i, for one, am not eager to see what another four years would look like under that kind ofleadership.

the presidency should not be passed on from one liberal to the ne_t.

so, here"s what it comes down to. our country is on a very bad course. and the question is:what are we going to do about it?

the question for me is: what am i going to do about it?

and i have decided.

i am a candidate for president of the united states of america.

we will take command of our future once again in this country.

we will lift our sights again, make opportunity common again, get events in the world movingour way again.

we will take washington – the static capital of this dynamic country – and turn it out of thebusiness of causing problems.

and we will get back on the side of free enterprise and free people.

i know we can fi_ this because i"ve done it.

here, in this great and diverse state that looks so much like america.

so many challenges could be overcome if we just get this economy growing at full strength.there is not a reason in the world why we cannot grow at a rate of four percent a year.

and that will be my goal as president – four percent growth, and the 19 million new jobs thatcome with it.

economic growth that makes a difference for hard-working men and women – who don"t need areminding that the economy is more than the stock market.

growth that lifts up the middle class – all the families who haven"t had a raise in 15 years.growth that makes a difference for everyone.

it"s possible.

it can be done.

we made florida number one in job creation and number one in small business creation. 1.3million new jobs, 4.4 percent growth, higher family income, eight balanced budgets, and ta_cuts eight years in a row that saved our people and businesses 19 billion dollars.

all this plus a bond upgrade to triple-a compared to the sorry downgrade of america"scredit in these years. that was the commitment, and that is the record that turned this statearound.

i also used my veto power to protect our ta_payers from needless spending.

and if i am elected president, i"ll show congress how that"s done.

leaders have to think big, and we"ve got a ta_ code filled with small-time thinking and self-interested politics. what swarms of lobbyists have done, we can undo with a vastly simplersystem – clearing out special favors for the few reducing rates for all.

what the irs, epa, and entire bureaucracy have done with overregulation, we can undo by actof congress and order of the president.

federal regulation has gone far past the consent of the governed.

it is time to start making rules for the rule-makers.

when we get serious about limited government, we can pursue the great and worthy goalsthat america has gone too long without.

we can build our future on solvency instead of borrowed money.

we can honor our commitments on the strength of fiscal integrity.

with north american resources and american ingenuity, we can finally achieve energysecurity for this nation – and with presidential leadership, we can make it happen within fiveyears.

if we do all of this, if we do it relentlessly, and if we do it right, we will make the united statesof america an economic superpower like no other.

we will also challenge the culture that has made lobbying the premier growth industry in ournation"s capital.

the rest of the country struggles under big government, while comfortable, complacentinterest groups in washington have been thriving on it.

a self-serving attitude can take hold in any capital, just as it once did in tallahassee.

i was a governor who refused to accept that as the normal or right way of conducting thepeople"s business.

i will not accept it as the standard in washington either.

we don"t need another president who merely holds the top spot among the pampered elites ofwashington.

we need a president willing to challenge and disrupt the whole culture in our nation"scapital.

and i will be that president because i was a reforming governor, not just another member ofthe club.

there"s no passing off responsibility when you"re a governor, no blending into the legislativecrowd or filing an amendment and calling that success.

as our whole nation has learned since 2024, e_ecutive e_perience is another term forpreparation, and there is no substitute for that.

we are not going to clean up the mess in washington by electing the people who either helpedcreate it or have proven incapable of fi_ing it.

in government, if we get a few big things right, we can make life better for millions of people,especially for kids in public schools. think of what we all watched not long ago in baltimorewhere so many young adults are walking around with no vision of a life beyond the life theyknow.

it"s a tragedy played out over and over and over again.

after we reformed education in florida, low-income student achievement improved here morethan in any other state.

we stopped processing kids along as if we didn"t care – because we do care, and you don"t showthat by counting out anyone"s child. you give them all a chance.

here"s what i believe.

when a school is just another dead end, every parent should have the right to send their childto a better school – public, private, or charter.

every school should have high standards, and the federal government should have nothing todo with setting them.

nationwide, if i am president, we will take the power of choice away from the unions andbureaucrats and give it back to parents.

we made sure of something else in florida – that children with developmental challenges gotschooling and caring attention, just like every other girl and boy. we didn"t leave them last inline. we put them first in line because they are not a problem. they are a priority.

that is always our first and best instinct in this nation filled with charitable hearts. yet thesehave been rough years for religious charities and their right of conscience. and the leadingdemocratic candidate recently hinted of more trouble to come.

secretary clinton insists that when the progressive agenda encounters religious beliefs to thecontrary those beliefs, quote, “have to be changed.” that"s what she said, and i guess weshould at least thank her for the warning.

the most galling e_ample is the shabby treatment of the little sisters of the poor, a christiancharity that dared to voice objections of conscience to obamacare. the ne_t president needsto make it clear that great charities like the little sisters of the poor need no federalinstruction in doing the right thing.

it comes down to a choice between the little sisters and big brother, and i"m going with thesisters.

it"s still a mystery to me why, in these violent times, the president a few months ago thoughtit relevant at a prayer breakfast to bring up the crusades.

americans don"t need lectures on the middle ages when we are dealing abroad with modernhorrors committed by fanatics.

from the beginning, our president and his foreign-policy team have been so eager to be thehistory makers that they have failed to be the peacemakers.

with their phone-it-in foreign policy, the obama-clinton-kerry team is leaving a legacy ofcrises uncontained, violence unopposed, enemies unnamed, friends undefended, and alliancesunraveling.

this supposedly risk-averse administration is also running us straight in the direction of thegreatest risk of all – military inferiority.

it will go on automatically until a president steps in to rebuild our armed forces and take careof our troops and our veterans.

and they have my word – i will do it.

we keep dependable friends in this world by being dependable ourselves.

i will rebuild our vital friendships. and that starts by standing with the brave, democraticstate of israel.

american-led alliances need rebuilding too, and better judgment is called for in relations farand near.

ninety miles to our south, there is talk of a state visit by our outgoing president.

but we don"t need a glorified tourist to go to havana in support of a failed cuba.

we need an american president to go to havana in solidarity with a free cuban people, and iam ready to be that president.

great things like that can really happen. and in this country of ours, the most improbablethings can happen as well. take that from a guy who met his first president on the day he wasborn, and his second on the day he was brought home from the hospital. the person whohandled both introductions is here today. she"s watching what i say – and frankly, with allthese reporters around, i"m watching what she says, too. please say hello to my wonderful mom,barbara bush.

hi, everybody. sunday is father"s day. if you haven"t got dad a gift yet, there"s still time. just barely. but the truth is, what we give our fathers can never match what our fathers give us.

i know how important it is to have a dad in your life, because i grew up without my father around. i felt the weight of his absence. so for michelle and our girls, i try every day to be the husband and father my family didn"t have when i was young. and every chance i get, i encourage fathers to get more involved in their children"s lives, because what makes you a man isn"t the ability to have a child – it"s the courage to raise one.

still, over the past couple years, i"ve met with a lot of young people who don"t have a father figure around. and while there"s nothing that can replace a parent, any of us can do our part to be a mentor, a sounding board, a role model for a kid who needs one. earlier this year, i launched an initiative called my brother"s keeper – an all-hands-on-deck effort to help more of our young men reach their full potential. and if you want to be a mentor to a young man in your community, you can find out how at whitehouse.gov/mybrotherskeeper.

now, when i launched this initiative, i said that government can"t play the primary role in a young person"s life. taking responsibility for being a great parent or mentor is a choice that we, as individuals, have to make. no government program can ever take the place of a parent"s love. still, as a country, there are ways we can help support dads and moms who make that choice.

that"s why, earlier this week, we brought working dads from across america to the white house to talk about the challenges they face. and in a few weeks, i"ll hold the first-ever white house working families summit. we"ve still got too many workplace policies that belong in the 1950s, and it"s time to bring them up to date for today"s families, where oftentimes, both parents are working. moms and dads deserve affordable child care, and time off to care for a sick parent or child without running into hardship. women deserve equal pay for equal work – and at a time when more women are breadwinners for a family, that benefits men, too. and because no parent who works full-time should have to raise a family in poverty, it"s time for congress to follow the lead of state after state, get on the bandwagon, and give america a raise.

dads work hard. so our country should do what we can to make sure their hard work pays off; to make sure life for them and their families is a little less stressful, and a little more secure, so they can be the dads their kids need them to be. because there"s nothing more precious in life than the time we spend with our children. there"s no better feeling than knowing that we can be there for them, and provide for them, and help give them every shot at success.

let"s make sure every dad who works hard and takes responsibility has the chance to know that feeling, not just on one sunday, but every day of the year.

thanks everybody, happy father"s day, and have a great weekend.

thank you. thank you very much. (applause.) thank you so much. please,please, have aseat. thank you.

what a singular honor it is forme to be here today. i want to thank,first and foremost, thejohnson family for giving us this opportunity and thegraciousness with which michelle and ihave been received.

we came down a little bit latebecause we were upstairs looking at some of the e_hibits andsome of theprivate offices that were used by president johnson and mrs. johnson. and michellewas in particular interested to-- of a recording in which lady bird is critiquing presidentjohnson’sperformance. (laughter.) and she said, come, come, you need to listento this. (laughter.) and she pressed the button and nodded herhead. some things do not change --(laughter) -- even 50 years later.

to all the members of congress,the warriors for justice, the elected officials andcommunity leaders who arehere today -- i want to thank you.

four days into his suddenpresidency -- and the night before he would address a jointsession of thecongress in which he once served -- lyndon johnson sat around a table withhisclosest advisors, preparing his remarks to a shattered and grieving nation.

he wanted to call on senators andrepresentatives to pass a civil rights bill -- the mostsweeping sincereconstruction. and most of his staffcounseled him against it. they said itwashopeless; that it would anger powerful southern democrats and committeechairmen; that itrisked derailing the rest of his domestic agenda. and one particularly bold aide said he didnotbelieve a president should spend his time and power on lost causes, howeverworthy they mightbe. to which, it issaid, president johnson replied, "well, what the hell’s the presidencyfor?" (laughter and applause.) what the hell’s the presidency for if not tofight for causes youbelieve in?

today, as we commemorate the 50thanniversary of the civil rights act, we honor the menand women who made itpossible. some of them are heretoday. we celebrate giants like johnlewisand andrew young and julian bond. werecall the countless unheralded americans, blackand white, students andscholars, preachers and housekeepers -- whose names are etched notonmonuments, but in the hearts of their loved ones, and in the fabric of thecountry theyhelped to change.

but we also gather here, deep inthe heart of the state that shaped him, to recall one giantman’s remarkableefforts to make real the promise of our founding: "we hold these truths to beself-evident,that all men are created equal."

those of us who have had thesingular privilege to hold the office of the presidency knowwell that progressin this country can be hard and it can be slow, frustrating andsometimesyou’re stymied. the office humblesyou. you’re reminded daily that in thisgreatdemocracy, you are but a relay swimmer in the currents of history, boundby decisions madeby those who came before, reliant on the efforts of those whowill follow to fully vindicate yourvision.

but the presidency also affords aunique opportunity to bend those currents -- by shapingour laws and by shapingour debates; by working within the confines of the world as it is, butalso byreimagining the world as it should be.

this was president johnson’sgenius. as a master of politics and thelegislative process, hegrasped like few others the power of government tobring about change.

lbj was nothing if not arealist. he was well aware that the lawalone isn’t enough to changehearts and minds. a full century after lincoln’s time, he said, "until justice is blind tocolor, untileducation is unaware of race, until opportunity is unconcernedwith the color of men’s skins,emancipation will be a proclamation but not afact."

he understood laws couldn’taccomplish everything. but he also knewthat only the law couldanchor change, and set hearts and minds on a differentcourse. and a lot of americansneededthe law’s most basic protections at that time. as dr. king said at the time, "it may betrue that the law can’t make a manlove me but it can keep him from lynching me, and i thinkthat’s pretty important." (applause.)

and passing laws was what lbjknew how to do. no one knew politics andno one lovedlegislating more than president johnson. he was charming when he needed to be,ruthlesswhen required. (laughter.) he could wear you down with logic andargument. he could horsetrade, and hecould flatter. "you come with me on thisbill," he would reportedly tell a keyrepublican leader from my home stateduring the fight for the civil rights bill, "and 200 yearsfrom now,schoolchildren will know only two names: abraham lincoln and everett dirksen!" (laughter.) and he knew thatsenators would believe things like that. (laughter and applause.)

president johnson likedpower. he liked the feel of it, thewielding of it. but that hunger washarnessedand redeemed by a deeper understanding of the human condition; by a sympathyforthe underdog, for the downtrodden, for the outcast. and it was a sympathy rooted in hisowne_perience.

as a young boy growing up in thete_as hill country, johnson knew what being poor feltlike. "poverty was so common," he would later say,"we didn’t even know it had a name." (laughter.) the family homedidn’t have electricity or indoor plumbing. everybody workedhard, including the children. president johnson had known the metallictaste of hunger; the feelof a mother’s calloused hands, rubbed raw fromwashing and cleaning and holding a householdtogether. his cousin ava remembered sweltering daysspent on her hands and knees in thecotton fields, with lyndon whisperingbeside her, "boy, there’s got to be a better way to make aliving thanthis. there’s got to be a better way."

it wasn’t until years later whenhe was teaching at a so-called me_ican school in a tiny townin te_as that hecame to understand how much worse the persistent pain of poverty could beforother races in a jim crow south. oftentimes his students would show up to class hungry.and when he’d visit their homes, he’d meetfathers who were paid slave wages by the farmersthey worked for. those children were taught, he would latersay, "that the end of life is in a beetrow, a spinach field, or a cottonpatch."

deprivation and discrimination --these were not abstractions to lyndon baines johnson.he knew that poverty and injustice are asinseparable as opportunity and justice are joined.so that was in him from an early age.

now, like any of us, he was not aperfect man. his e_periences in ruralte_as may havestretched his moral imagination, but he was ambitious, veryambitious, a young man in a hurryto plot his own escape from poverty and tochart his own political career. and inthe jim crowsouth, that meant not challenging convention. during his first 20 years in congress,heopposed every civil rights bill that came up for a vote, once calling the pushfor federallegislation "a farce and a sham." he was chosen as a vice presidential nominee in part becauseof hisaffinity with, and ability to deliver, that southern white vote. and at the beginning of thekennedy administration,he shared with president kennedy a caution towards racialcontroversy.

but marchers kept marching. four little girls were killed in achurch. bloody sundayhappened. the winds of change blew. and when the time came, when lbj stood in theovaloffice -- i picture him standing there, taking up the entire doorframe,looking out over thesouth lawn in a quiet moment -- and asked himself what thetrue purpose of his office was for,what was the endpoint of his ambitions, hewould reach back in his own memory and he’dremember his own e_perience withwant.

and he knew that he had a uniquecapacity, as the most powerful white politician from thesouth, to not merelychallenge the convention that had crushed the dreams of so many, buttoultimately dismantle for good the structures of legal segregation. he’s the only guy whocould do it -- and heknew there would be a cost, famously saying the democratic party may"have lostthe south for a generation."

that’s what his presidency wasfor. that’s where he meets hismoment. and possessed withan iron will,possessed with those skills that he had honed so many years in congress,pushedand supported by a movement of those willing to sacrifice everything for theirownliberation, president johnson fought for and argued and horse traded andbullied and persuadeduntil ultimately he signed the civil rights act into law.

and he didn’t stop there -- eventhough his advisors again told him to wait, again told himlet the dust settle,let the country absorb this momentous decision. he shook them off. "themeat inthe coconut," as president johnson would put it, was the voting rights act, sohe foughtfor and passed that as well. immigration reform came shortly after. and then, a fair housingact. andthen, a health care law that opponents described as "socialized medicine" thatwouldcurtail america’s freedom, but ultimately freed millions of seniors fromthe fear that illnesscould rob them of dignity and security in their goldenyears, which we now know today asmedicare. (applause.)

what president johnson understoodwas that equality required more than the absence ofoppression. it required the presence of economicopportunity. he wouldn’t be as eloquentasdr. king would be in describing that linkage, as dr. king moved intomobilizing sanitationworkers and a poor people’s movement, but he understoodthat connection because he hadlived it. a decent job, decent wages, health care -- those, too, were civil rightsworth fightingfor. an economy wherehard work is rewarded and success is shared, that was his goal. and heknew, as someone who had seen the newdeal transform the landscape of his te_as childhood,who had seen thedifference electricity had made because of the tennessee valley authority,thetransformation concretely day in and day out in the life of his own family, heunderstood thatgovernment had a role to play in broadening prosperity to allthose who would strive for it.

"we want to open the gates toopportunity," president johnson said, "but we are also goingto give all ourpeople, black and white, the help they need to walk through those gates."

now, if some of this soundsfamiliar, it’s because today we remain locked in this same greatdebate aboutequality and opportunity, and the role of government in ensuring each. as wastrue 50 years ago, there are those whodismiss the great society as a failed e_periment and anencroachment onliberty; who argue that government has become the true source of all thatailsus, and that poverty is due to the moral failings of those who suffer fromit. there are alsothose who argue,john, that nothing has changed; that racism is so embedded in our dnathatthere is no use trying politics -- the game is rigged.

but such theories ignore history. yes, it’s true that, despite laws like thecivil rights act,and the voting rights act and medicare, our society is stillracked with division and poverty.yes,race still colors our political debates, and there have been governmentprograms that havefallen short. in atime when cynicism is too often passed off as wisdom, it’s perhaps easytoconclude that there are limits to change; that we are trapped by our ownhistory; and politicsis a fool’s errand, and we’d be better off if we rollback big chunks of lbj’s legacy, or at least ifwe don’t put too much of ourhope, invest too much of our hope in our government.

i reject such thinking. (applause.) not just because medicare and medicaid have liftedmillions fromsuffering; not just because the poverty rate in this nation would be farworsewithout food stamps and head start and all the great society programs thatsurvive tothis day. i reject suchcynicism because i have lived out the promise of lbj’s efforts. becausemichelle has lived out the legacy ofthose efforts. because my daughters havelived out thelegacy of those efforts. because i and millions of my generation were in a position to takethebaton that he handed to us. (applause.)

because of the civil rightsmovement, because of the laws president johnson signed, newdoors ofopportunity and education swung open for everybody -- not all at once, but theyswungopen. not just blacks and whites,but also women and latinos; and asians and nativeamericans; and gay americansand americans with a disability. theyswung open for you, andthey swung open for me. and that’s why i’m standing here today -- because of thoseefforts,because of that legacy. (applause.)

and that means we’ve got a debtto pay. that means we can’t afford to becynical. half acentury later, the lawslbj passed are now as fundamental to our conception of ourselves andourdemocracy as the constitution and the bill of rights. they are foundational; an essentialpiece ofthe american character.

but we are here today because weknow we cannot be complacent. forhistory travels notonly forwards; history can travel backwards, history cantravel sideways. and securing thegainsthis country has made requires the vigilance of its citizens. our rights, our freedoms --they are notgiven. they must be won. they must be nurtured through struggle anddiscipline,and persistence and faith.

and one concern i have sometimesduring these moments, the celebration of the signing ofthe civil rights act,the march on washington -- from a distance, sometimes thesecommemorations seeminevitable, they seem easy. all the painand difficulty and struggle anddoubt -- all that is rubbed away. and we look at ourselves and we say, oh,things are just toodifferent now; wecouldn’t possibly do what was done then -- these giants, whattheyaccomplished. and yet, they were men andwomen, too. it wasn’t easy then. it wasn’tcertain then.

still, the story of america is astory of progress. however slow, howeverincomplete, howeverharshly challenged at each point on our journey, howeverflawed our leaders, however manytimes we have to take a quarter of a loaf orhalf a loaf -- the story of america is a story ofprogress. and that’s true because of men like presidentlyndon baines johnson. (applause.

in so many ways, he embodiedamerica, with all our gifts and all our flaws, in all ourrestlessness and allour big dreams. this man -- born intopoverty, weaned in a world full ofracial hatred -- somehow found within himselfthe ability to connect his e_perience with thebrown child in a small te_astown; the white child in appalachia; the black child in watts. aspowerful as he became in that oval office,he understood them. he understood whatit meant tobe on the outside. and hebelieved that their plight was his plight too; that his freedomultimately waswrapped up in theirs; and that making their lives better was what the hellthepresidency was for. (applause.)

and those children were on hismind when he strode to the podium that night in the housechamber, when hecalled for the vote on the civil rights law. "it never occurred to me," he said, "in my fondest dreams that i mighthave the chance to help the sons and daughters of thosestudents" that he hadtaught so many years ago, "and to help people like them all overthiscountry. but now i do have thatchance. and i’ll let you in on a secret-- i mean to use it.and i hope that youwill use it with me." (applause.)

that was lbj’s greatness. that’s why we remember him. and if there is one thing that heand thisyear’s anniversary should teach us, if there’s one lesson i hope that malia andsasha andyoung people everywhere learn from this day, it’s that with enougheffort, and enoughempathy, and enough perseverance, and enough courage, peoplewho love their country canchange it.

in his final year, presidentjohnson stood on this stage, racked with pain, battered by thecontroversies ofvietnam, looking far older than his 64 years, and he delivered what would behisfinal public speech.

"we have proved that greatprogress is possible," he said. "we knowhow much still remainsto be done. andif our efforts continue, and if our will is strong, and if our hearts areright, and ifcourage remains our constant companion, then, my fellowamericans, i am confident, weshall overcome." (applause.)

we shall overcome. we, the citizens of the united states. like dr. king, like abrahamlincoln, likecountless citizens who have driven this country ine_orably forward, presidentjohnsonknew that ours in the end is a story of optimism, a story ofachievement and constant strivingthat is unique upon this earth. he knew because he had lived that story. he believed thattogether we can build anamerica that is more fair, more equal, and more free than the oneweinherited. he believed we make our owndestiny. and in part because of him, wemust believeit as well.

thank you. god bless you. god bless the united states of america. (applause.)

good morning. our nation was founded on a bedrock principle that we are all created equal. the project of each generation is to bridge the meaning of those founding words with the realities of changing times – a never-ending quest to ensure those words ring true for every single american.

progress on this journey often comes in small increments, sometimes two steps forward, onestep back, propelled by the persistent effort of dedicated citizens. and then sometimes, thereare days like this when that slow, steady effort is rewarded with justice that arrives like athunderbolt.

this morning, the supreme court recognized that the constitution guarantees marriageequality. in doing so, they"ve reaffirmed that all americans are entitled to the equalprotection of the law. that all people should be treated equally, regardless of who they are orwho they love.

this decision will end the patchwork system we currently have. it will end the uncertaintyhundreds of thousands of same-se_ couples face from not knowing whether their marriage,legitimate in the eyes of one state, will remain if they decide to move [to] or even visit another.this ruling will strengthen all of our communities by offering to all loving same-se_ couples thedignity of marriage across this great land.

in my second inaugural address, i said that if we are truly created equal, then surely the lovewe commit to one another must be equal as well. it is gratifying to see that principleenshrined into law by this decision.

this ruling is a victory for jim obergefell and the other plaintiffs in the case. it"s a victory forgay and lesbian couples who have fought so long for their basic civil rights. it"s a victory fortheir children, whose families will now be recognized as equal to any other. it"s a victory for theallies and friends and supporters who spent years, even decades, working and praying forchange to come.

and this ruling is a victory for america. this decision affirms what millions of americansalready believe in their hearts: when all americans are treated as equal we are all more free.

my administration has been guided by that idea. it"s why we stopped defending the so-calleddefense of marriage act, and why we were pleased when the court finally struck down a centralprovision of that discriminatory law. it"s why we ended "don"t ask, don"t tell." from e_tendingfull marital benefits to federal employees and their spouses, to e_panding hospital visitationrights for lgbt patients and their loved ones, we"ve made real progress in advancing equalityfor lgbt americans in ways that were unimaginable not too long ago.

i know change for many of our lgbt brothers and sisters must have seemed so slow for so long.but compared to so many other issues, america"s shift has been so quick. i know thatamericans of goodwill continue to hold a wide range of views on this issue. opposition insome cases has been based on sincere and deeply held beliefs. all of us who welcome today"snews should be mindful of that fact; recognize different viewpoints; revere our deepcommitment to religious freedom.

but today should also give us hope that on the many issues with which we grapple, oftenpainfully, real change is possible. shifts in hearts and minds is possible. and those who havecome so far on their journey to equality have a responsibility to reach back and help others jointhem. because for all our differences, we are one people, stronger together than we could everbe alone. that"s always been our story.

we are big and vast and diverse; a nation of people with different backgrounds and beliefs,different e_periences and stories, but bound by our shared ideal that no matter who you are orwhat you look like, how you started off, or how and who you love, america is a place where youcan write your own destiny.

we are a people who believe that every single child is entitled to life and liberty and thepursuit of happiness.

there"s so much more work to be done to e_tend the full promise of america to everyamerican. but today, we can say in no uncertain terms that we"ve made our union a little moreperfect.

that"s the consequence of a decision from the supreme court, but, more importantly, it is aconsequence of the countless small acts of courage of millions of people across decades whostood up, who came out, who talked to parents – parents who loved their children no matterwhat. folks who were willing to endure bullying and taunts, and stayed strong, and came tobelieve in themselves and who they were, and slowly made an entire country realize that love islove.

what an e_traordinary achievement. what a vindication of the belief that ordinary peoplecan do e_traordinary things. what a reminder of what bobby kennedy once said about howsmall actions can be like pebbles being thrown into a still lake, and ripples of hope cascadeoutwards and change the world.

those countless, often anonymous heroes – they deserve our thanks. they should be veryproud. america should be very proud.

thank you. (applause.)

good morning, everybody. (applause.) thank you, thank you, thank you very much. please,please have a seat. thank you so much. well, good morning, everybody.

welcome to the white house andwelcome to our annual easter prayer breakfast. as always,we are blessed to be joined by so many good friends fromaround the country. we"vegotdistinguished guests. we"ve got faithleaders, members of my administration who are here.and i will once again resist the temptationto preach to preachers. (laughter.) it never worksout well. i am reminded of the admonition from the bookof romans -- "do not claim to bewiser than you are." (laughter.) so this morning, i want to offer some very brief reflections aswe startthis easter season.

but as i was preparing myremarks, something intervened yesterday. and so i want to justdevote a few words about yesterday"s tragedy inkansas. this morning our prayers are withthepeople of overland park. and we"restill learning the details, but this much we know. a gunmanopened fire at two jewish facilities-- a community center and a retirement home. innocentpeople were killed. their families were devastated. and this violence has struck the heart ofthe jewish community in kansascity.

two of the victims -- agrandfather and his teenage [grand] son -- attended the unitedmethodist churchof the resurrection, which is led by our friend reverend adam hamilton.some of you may know that during myinauguration, reverend hamilton delivered the sermonat the prayer service atthe national cathedral. and i wasgrateful for his presence and hiswords. he joined us at our breakfast last year. and at the easter service for palm sunday lastnight, he had to breakthis terrible news to his congregation.

that this occurred now -- as jewswere preparing to celebrate passover, as christians wereobserving palm sunday--makes this tragedy all the more painful. and today, as passoverbegins, we"re seeing a number of synagogues andjewish community centers take addedsecurity precautions. nobody should have to worry about theirsecurity when gathering withtheir fellow believers. no one should ever have to fear for theirsafety when they go to pray.

and as a government, we"re goingto provide whatever assistance is needed to support theinvestigation. as americans, we not only need to open ourhearts to the families of the victims,we"ve got to stand united against thiskind of terrible violence, which has no place in oursociety. and we have to keep coming together acrossfaiths to combat the ignorance andintolerance, including anti-semitism thatcan lead to hatred and to violence, because we"reall children of god. we"re all made in his image, all worthy ofhis love and dignity. and we seewhathappens around the world when this kind of religious-based or tinged violencecan rear itsugly head. it"s got no placein our society.

so this easter week, of course werecognize that there"s a lot of pain and a lot of sin and alot of tragedy inthis world, but we"re also overwhelmed by the grace of an awesome god. we"rereminded how he loves us, so deeply,that he gave his only begotten son so that we might livethrough him. and in these holy days, we recall all thatjesus endured for us -- the scorn of thecrowds and the pain of thecrucifi_ion, in our christian religious tradition we celebrate theglory of theresurrection -- all so that we might be forgiven of our sins and grantedeverlastinglife.

and more than 2,000 years later,it inspires us still. we are drawn tohis timeless teachings,challenged to be worthy of his sacrifice, to emulate asbest we can his eternal e_ample tolove one another just as he loves us. and of course, we"re always reminded each andevery daythat we fall short of that e_ample. and none of us are free from sin, but we look to his life andstrive,knowing that "if we love one another, god lives in us, and his love isperfected in us."

i"ll tell you, i felt this spiritwhen i had the great honor of meeting his holiness, popefrancis,recently. i think it"s fair to say thatthose of us of the christian faith, regardless of ourdenomination, have beentouched and moved by pope francis. now,some of it is his words --his message of justice and inclusion, especially forthe poor and the outcast. he implores ustosee the inherent dignity in each human being. but it"s also his deeds, simple yet profound--hugging the homeless man, and washing the feet of somebody who normallyordinary folkswould just pass by on the street. he reminds us that all of us, no matter whatour station, havean obligation to live righteously, and that we all have anobligation to live humbly.becausethat"s, in fact, the e_ample that we profess to follow.

so i had a wonderful conversationwith pope francis, mostly about the imperatives ofaddressing poverty andinequality. and i invited him to come tothe united states, and isincerely hope he will. when we e_changed gifts he gave me a copy ofhis inspiring writings, "the joy of the gospel." and there is a passage that speaks to ustoday: "christ"s resurrection,"hewrites, "is not an event of the past; it contains a vital power which haspermeated this world."and he adds,"jesus did not rise in vain. may wenever remain on the sidelines of this march ofliving hope!"

so this morning, my main messageis just to say thank you to all of you, because you don"tremain on thesidelines. i want to thank you for yourministries, for your good works, for themarching you do for justice anddignity and inclusion, for the ministries that all of you attendto and havehelped organize throughout your communities each and every day to feedthehungry and house the homeless and educate children who so desperately need aneducation.you have made a difference inso many different ways, not only here in the united states butoverseas aswell. and that includes a cause close tomy heart, my brother"s keeper, an initiativethat we recently launched to makesure that more boys and young men of color can overcomethe odds and achievetheir dreams.

and we"re joined by several faithleaders who are doing outstanding work in this areamentoring and helping youngmen in tough neighborhoods. we"re alsojoined by some of theseyoung men who are working hard and trying to be goodstudents and good sons and goodcitizens. and i want to say to each of those young men here, we"re proud of you,and we e_pecta lot of you. and we"regoing to make sure that we"re there for you so that you then in turn willbethere for the ne_t generation of young men.

and i mention all this because ofall of our many partners for my brother"s keeper, it"s clergylike you and yourcongregations that can play a special role to be that spiritual andethicalfoundation, that rock that so many young men need in their lives.

so i want to thank all of you whoare already involved. i invite those whoare not to get moreinformation, see if you can join in this effort as brothersand sisters in christ who "never tire ofdoing good."

in closing, i"ll just recall thatold prayer that i think more than one preacher has invoked atthe pulpit: "lord, fill my mouth with worthwhile stuff,and nudge me when i"ve said enough." (laughter.) the almighty isnudging me. i thank you for joining usthis morning of prayer. iwish you all ablessed holy week and easter, and i"d like to invite my friend joel huntertodeliver the opening prayer. come on up,joel. (applause.)

mr. vice president, mr. speaker, members of the senate, and of the house of representatives:

yesterday, december 7th, 1941 -- a date which will live in infamy -- the united states of america was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the empire of japan.

the united states was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of japan, was still in conversation with its government and its emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the pacific.

indeed, one hour after japanese air squadrons had commenced bombing in the american island of oahu, the japanese ambassador to the united states and his colleague delivered to our secretary of state a formal reply to a recent american message. and while this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue the e_isting diplomatic negotiations, it contained no threat or hint of war or of armed attack.

it will be recorded that the distance of hawaii from japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. during the intervening time, the japanese government has deliberately sought to deceive the united states by false statements and e_pressions of hope for continued peace.

the attack yesterday on the hawaiian islands has caused severe damage to american naval and military forces. i regret to tell you that very many american lives have been lost. in addition, american ships have been reported torpedoed on the high seas between san francisco and honolulu.

yesterday, the japanese government also launched an attack against malaya.

last night, japanese forces attacked hong kong.

last night, japanese forces attacked guam.

last night, japanese forces attacked the philippine islands.

last night, the japanese attacked wake island.

and this morning, the japanese attacked midway island.

japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive e_tending throughout the pacific area. the facts of yesterday and today speak for themselves. the people of the united states have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.

fdrwarspeech.jpg

as commander in chief of the army and navy, i have directed that all measures be taken for our defense. but always will our whole nation remember the character of the onslaught against us.

no matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the american people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.

i believe that i interpret the will of the congress and of the people when i assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost, but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us.

hostilities e_ist. there is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory, and our interests are in grave danger.

with confidence in our armed forces, with the unbounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph -- so help us god.

i ask that the congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by japan on sunday, december 7th, 1941, a state of war has e_isted between the united states and the japanese empire.

美國總統(tǒng)羅斯福珍珠港演講稿(中文版)

副總統(tǒng)先生、議長先生、參眾兩院各位議員：

昨天， 1941年12月7日——必須永遠(yuǎn)記住這個恥辱的日子——美利堅合眾國受到了日本帝國?？哲娡蝗坏男钜獾倪M攻。美國和日本是和平相處的，根據(jù)日本的請求仍在同它的政府和進行會談，以期維護太平洋和平。實際上，就在日本空軍中隊已經(jīng)開始轟炸美國瓦湖島之后的一小時，日本駐美國大使還向我們的國務(wù)卿提交了對美國最近致日方信函的正式答復(fù)。雖然復(fù)函聲稱繼續(xù)現(xiàn)行外交談判似已無用，但并未包含有關(guān)戰(zhàn)爭或武裝進攻的威脅或暗示。

歷史將會證明，夏威夷距日本這么遙遠(yuǎn)，表明這次進攻是經(jīng)過許多天或甚至許多個星期精心策劃的。在此期間，日本政府蓄意以虛偽的聲明和表示繼續(xù)維護和平的愿望來欺騙美國。

昨天對夏威夷島的進攻給美國海陸軍部隊造成了嚴(yán)重的損害。我遺憾地告訴各位，很多美國人喪失了生命，此外，據(jù)報，美國船只在舊金山和火奴魯魯(檀香山)之間的公海上也遭到了魚雷襲擊。

昨天，日本政府已發(fā)動了對馬來亞的進攻。

昨夜，日本軍隊進攻了香港。

昨夜，日本軍隊進攻了關(guān)島。

昨夜，日本軍隊進攻了菲律賓群島。

昨夜，日本人進攻了威克島。

今晨，日本人進攻了中途島。

因此，日本在整個太平洋區(qū)域采取了突然的攻勢。昨天和今天的事實不言自明。美國的人民已經(jīng)形成了自己的見解，并且十分清楚這關(guān)系到我們國家的安全和生存的本身。

作為陸海軍，總司令，我已指示，為了我們的防務(wù)采取一切措施。

但是，我們整個國家都將永遠(yuǎn)記住這次對我們進攻的性質(zhì)。不論要用多長時間才能戰(zhàn)勝這次預(yù)謀的入侵，美國人民以自己的正義力量一定要贏得絕對的勝利。

我們現(xiàn)在預(yù)言，我們不僅要做出最大的努力來保衛(wèi)我們自己，我們還將確保這種形式的背信棄義永遠(yuǎn)不會再危及我們。我這樣說，相信是表達(dá)了國會和人民的意志。

敵對行動已經(jīng)存在。無庸諱言，我國人民、我國領(lǐng)土和我國利益都處于嚴(yán)重危險之中。

相信我們的武裝部隊——依靠我國人民的堅定決心--我們將取得必然的勝利，愿上帝幫助我們!我要求國會宣布：自1941年12月7日星期日日本發(fā)動無端的、卑鄙的進攻時起，美國和日本帝國之間已處于戰(zhàn)爭狀態(tài)。

【2024年感恩節(jié)英語演講稿】

hi, everybody. on behalf of all the obamas – michelle, malia, sasha, bo, and the newest member of our family, sunny – i want to wish you a happy and healthy thanksgiving.

大家好!我代表我們家所有人——米歇爾、瑪利亞、薩莎、波爾以及新添成員桑尼，祝愿大家有一個快樂舒適的感恩節(jié)。

we’ll be spending today just like many of you – sitting down with family and friends to eat some good food, tell stories, watch a little football, and most importantly, count our blessings.

我們今天會和家人朋友一起享用美味的食物、講故事、看點足球比賽，最重要的是，感恩——就像你們大多數(shù)人一樣。

and as americans, we have so much to be thankful for.

作為美國人，我們有那么多值得感恩的東西。

we give thanks for the men and women who set sail for this land nearly four centuries ago, risking everything for the chance at a better life – and the people who were already here, our native american brothers and sisters, for their generosity during that first thanksgiving.

我們對近42024年前航行到這片土地的人們表達(dá)感謝，因為他們?yōu)榱藢で蟾玫纳睿拭耙磺酗L(fēng)險。我們還要感激已經(jīng)在這片土地上的，我們的原住民印第安兄弟姐妹們，感激他們在第一次感恩節(jié)上的慷慨大度。

we give thanks for the generations who followed – people of all races and religions, who arrived here from every country on earth and worked to build something better for themselves and for us.

我們對相繼而來的世世代代的人們表達(dá)感激。來自世界各國的人們——來自不同民族并有著不同宗教信仰，齊心協(xié)力為他們自己和我們建筑起更美好的將來。

we give thanks for all our men and women in uniform – and for their families, who are surely missing them very much today. we’re grateful for their sacrifice too.

我們對穿制服為我們服務(wù)的人們表達(dá)謝意，對今天必定無比想念他們的親人表達(dá)謝意。我們感激他們的犧牲。

we give thanks for the freedoms they defend – the freedom to think what we want and say what we think, to worship according to our own beliefs, to choose our leaders and, yes, criticize them without punishment. people around the world are fighting and even dying for their chance at these freedoms. we stand with them in that struggle, and we give thanks for being free.

我們感恩他們所捍衛(wèi)的自由——讓我們敢想敢說的自由、讓我們選擇信仰的自由、讓我們選擇自己的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的自由，以及，不受懲罰地批評領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的自由。世界各國人民都在為有這些自由而奮斗甚至犧牲。我們和他們站在同一戰(zhàn)線上，我們?yōu)樽杂啥卸鳌?/p>

and we give thanks to everyone who’s doing their part to make the united states a better, more compassionate nation – who spend their thanksgiving volunteering at a soup kitchen, or joining a service project, or bringing food and cheer to a lonely neighbor. that big-hearted generosity is a central part of our american character. we believe in lending a hand to folks who need it. we believe in pitching in to solve problems even if they aren’t our problems. and that’s not a one-day-a-year belief. it’s part of the fabric of our nation.

而且，我們感恩所有讓美國成為更強大并且更富同情心的國家而盡責(zé)職守的人們——那些感恩節(jié)在救濟所參加志愿服務(wù)的人，或者參加服務(wù)項目的人，或者給孤單的鄰居送去食物和鼓勵的人。這樣的大度慷慨是我們美國人性格中的核心部分。我們愿意給需要的人以援手，我們愿意路見不平拔刀相助。這些不是一年一次的想法，這是我們國家的構(gòu)成。

and we remember that many americans need that helping hand right now. americans who’ve lost their jobs and can’t get a new one through no fault of their own. americans who’ve been trapped in poverty and just need that helping hand to climb out. citizens whose prayers and hopes move us to act.

我們牢記著許多美國人現(xiàn)在需要幫助。那些失去工作而且沒有絲毫過錯卻找不到新工作的美國人，那些深陷貧困而且急需救援之手的美國人。正是這些公民的祈禱和希望促使我們行動。

we are a people who are greater together than we are on our own. that’s what today is about. that’s what every day should be about. no matter our differences, we’re all part of one american family. we are each other’s keeper. we are one nation, under god. that core tenet of our american e_perience has guided us from the earliest days of our founding – and it will guide us to a future that’s even brighter than today.

我們是一個團結(jié)勝過單獨行動的國家。今天如此，每天都如此。不管我們多么不同，我們都是美國大家庭的一份子。我們是彼此的守護者。我們是上帝庇佑的一個國家。我們美國歷史實踐出的這個核心信條將帶領(lǐng)我們走向比今天更輝煌的未來，從建國初期到將來都是如此。

thank you, god bless you, and from my family to yours, happy thanksgiving.

謝謝，上帝保佑你。還有我們?nèi)蚁雽Υ蠹冶硎靖卸鞴?jié)快樂。

hello, mustangs! (applause.) fantastic. well, everybody have a seat. have a seat. thank you, leah, for the great introduction. give leah a big round of applause. yay! (applause.) meeting young people like leah just makes me inspired. it’s a good way to start the week. and all of the students here who are discovering and e_ploring new ideas is one of the reasons i love visiting schools like bladensburg high. and so i just want to congratulate all of you for the great work that you’re doing.

i brought a couple of folks here who are helping to facilitate some of the programs here. mynew deputy secretary of labor, chris lu, is here. give him a big round of applause. (applause.) and some of the biggest champions for education in prince george’s county arehere, including your governor, martin o’malley. (applause.) county e_ecutive rushern baker. (applause.) mayor walter james. (applause.) superintendent kevin ma_well. (applause.) yourbiggest fans in congress, donna edwards and steny hoyer. (applause.) we are proud of all ofthem, and we’re proud of you.

all of you remind me, all these young people here, that young people today are working oncooler stuff than they were when i was in high school. in classrooms across the country,students just like the students here, they’re working hard, they’re setting their sights high.and we’ve got to do everything we can to make sure that all of you have a chance to succeed.and that’s why your outstanding principal, aisha mahoney, is working so hard at this school. (applause.) that’s why governor o’malley has been working so hard to repair old schools andbuild new ones across the state of maryland. and that’s why i’m here today. because last year,we launched a national competition to redesign america’s high schools for the 21st century --the 21st century economy. and i’m proud to say that your hard work here has paid off, becauseone of the winners is prince george’s county. (applause.) good job. that’s right, you guys havedone great. (applause.)

now, let me tell you why this is so important. many of the young people here, you’ve grown upin the midst of one of the worst economic crises of our lifetimes. and it’s been hard and it’sbeen painful. there are a lot of families that lost their homes, lost jobs; a lot of families that arestill hurting out there. but the work that we’ve done, the groundwork that we’ve laid, hascreated a situation where we’re moving in the right direction. our businesses have createdalmost 9 million new jobs over the last four years. our high school graduation rate is thehighest on record. dropout rates are going down; among latinos, the dropout rate has been cutin half since 2024. (applause.) more young people are earning college degrees than ever before.we’ve been bringing troops home from two wars. more than 7 million americans have nowsigned up for health coverage through the affordable care act. (applause.)

so we’ve been making progress, but we’ve got more work to do to make sure that every one ofthese young people, that everybody who is willing to work hard has the chance to get ahead.we’ve got to make sure that our economy works for everybody, not just a few. we’ve got tomake sure opportunity e_ists for all people. no matter who you are, no matter where youstarted out, you’ve got to have confidence that if you work hard and take responsibility, youcan make it.

and that’s the chance that this country gave me. it’s the chance that this country gavemichelle. and that’s why we’re working so hard for what we call an opportunity agenda -- onethat gives everybody a shot. and there are four simple goals: we want to create new jobs. wewant to make sure that people have the skills to fill those jobs. we want to make sure everyyoung person has a world-class education. and we want to make sure that we reward hard workwith things like health care you can count on and wages you can live on.

and maryland and governor o’malley have been working alongside us on these issues, and iwant to give a special shout-out to the maryland legislature because, because of governoro’malley’s leadership, you are helping to make sure that we are raising more people’s wageswith your push to raise your minimum wage right here in maryland. (applause.) we’re veryproud to see that happen. and i hope governor o’malley is going to sign it into law soon. givemaryland a raise. (applause.) that’s good work.

but the main focus here is guaranteeing every young person has access to a world-classeducation. every single student. now, that starts before high school. we’ve got to start at theyoungest ages by making sure we’ve got high-quality preschool and other early learningprograms for every young child in america. (applause.) it makes a difference.

we’ve got to make sure that every student has access to the world’s information and the world’sbest technology, and that’s why we’re moving forward with an initiative we call connected tofinally connect 99 percent of america’s students to high-speed internet in the ne_t few years. (applause.) it means that we’ve got to rein in college costs -- because i want to make sure thatleah, when she goes to school, she’s not burdened with too much debt. (applause.) and we’vegot to make it easier to repay student loans -- because none of the young people here should bedenied a higher education just because your family has trouble affording it. and a world-classeducation means preparing every young person with the skills they need for college, for acareer, and for a lifetime of citizenship.

so what we did was we launched a new competition, backed by america’s departments ofeducation and labor, to start redesigning some of our high schools. we call it youthcareerconnect. and we’re offering $100 million in new grants to help schools and local partnersdevelop and test new curricula and models for success. we want to invest in your future.

you guys are all coming up in an age where you’re not going to be able to compete with peopleacross town for good jobs -- you’re going to be competing with the rest of the world. youngpeople in india and china, they’re all interested in trying to figure out how they get a footholdin this world economy. that’s who you’re competing against. now, i’m confident you canmatch or e_ceed anything they do, but we don’t do it by just resting on what we’ve donebefore. we’ve got to out-work and out-innovate and out-hustle everybody else. we’ve got tothink about new ways of doing things.

and part of our concern has been our high schools, a lot of them were designed withcurriculums based on the 1940s and ‘50s and ‘60s, and haven’t been updated. so the ideabehind this competition is how do we start making high school, in particular, moreinteresting, more e_citing, more relevant to young people.

last year, for e_ample, i visited a school called p-tech --- this is in brooklyn -- a high schoolthat partnered with ibm and the city university of new york to offer its students not only a highschool diploma, but also an associate’s degree in computer systems or electromechanicalengineering. ibm said that p-tech graduates would be the first in line for jobs.

then i visited a high school in nashville that offers "academies" where students focus on aspecific subject area -- but they’re also getting hands-on e_perience running their own creditunion, working in their own tv studios, learning 3d printing, tinkering with their own airplane -- which was pretty cool. i never got to do that. i did get my own airplane later in life. (laughter.) although i’ve got to give it back. (laughter.) i don’t get to keep it.

but this is stuff i didn’t get to do when i was in high school -- and i wish i had. but it’s stuffyou have to know how to do today, in today’s economy. things are moving faster, they’re moresophisticated.

so we challenged america’s high schools to look at what’s happening in a place like p-tech,look at what’s happening in cities like nashville, and then say what can you do to make sureyour students learn the skills that businesses are looking for in high-demand fields. and weasked high schools to develop partnerships with colleges and employers, and create classes thatfocus on real-life applications for the fields of the future -- fields like science and technology andengineering and math. and part of the reason we have to do this now is because othercountries, they’ve got a little bit of a lead on us on some of these areas.

a country like germany right now focuses on graduating their high school students with atechnical degree equivalent that give them a head start. so we’re asking schools to look intowhat places like germany are doing.

now, not every school that enters into this competition for the $100 million is going to win --because we don’t have enough money for everybody, and we want to force schools to think hardand redesign, and we want to reward the schools that are being most innovative and areactually proving some of the concepts that they’re trying out. but the great thing is thatthrough this competition, schools across the country that entered have changed the way theyprepare their students, and have already made enormous improvements, even before they getthe grant. and, ultimately, we had to choose the top youth careerconnect initiatives. today,i’m proud to say that schools across america are putting up some pretty impressive proposals.

the winners across the board are doing the kinds of stuff that will allow other schools to startduplicating what they’re doing. the winners in indianapolis are e_panding their career prepprograms to encourage more young women and kids from diverse backgrounds to join ourscience and technology workforce. new york city likes that brooklyn high school model, p-tech,so much that they’re using their grant to fund two more just like it, so that students can gaintwo degrees at once and get the edge they need in today’s high-tech, high-speed economy. andas i mentioned earlier, one of our 24 winners is a three-school team including your high school.mustangs, you guys are part of the team that won! (applause.) that’s good.

now, in part, the reason you won is because you guys were ahead of the curve. you werealready winning. for a couple years now, your career academies have been integratingclassroom learning with ready-to-work skills, and you’re preparing students to move directlyinto the in-demand jobs of the future -- jobs in it and biosciences and hospitality. and nowyou’re stepping it up. you’re taking it to another level. so in the classroom i just visited, youhad 10th graders -- although there was also a freshman -- who are studying epidemiology -- thestudy of disease patterns and outbreaks. and they’re getting potentially college-level creditfor it, which is good because they may be the young people who discover a cure for somedisease down the line that we don’t even know about yet.

i know our brilliant scientists at the national institutes of health and the centers for diseasecontrol, they’d be proud of you. they like looking at bacteria. (laughter.) and i got a littleworried when i went into the classroom -- everybody was wearing goggles and vests, and ididn’t have my goggles. (laughter.) but they assured me it was safe. but some of youmustangs are pushing yourselves to get industry-recognized certifications in nursing, whileother students on this winning team are studying cutting-edge technology and getting hands-on internship e_perience at local businesses. and we know these are skills that will be indemand. companies will come looking to hire you because of the e_periences you’ve gottenhere.

if you’re focused, if you’re working hard, you now have a platform so that by the time you getout of high school you’re already ahead of the game; you’re already in a position where you’vegot some skills that make you employable. and then you can just take it further, whether it’s atwo-year college or a four-year college, or graduate school. or there are a couple of young ladiesin there who said they want to be neurosurgeons, psychiatrists. so you can build on thesecareers, but the point is you have a baseline where you know if you’re focused here at thisschool, doing your work, you’re going to be able to find a job.

and the grants that you’ve won in this youth careerconnect competition mean that theprograms you’ve started are going to e_pand, and you’re going to get more college and careercounseling to help get you a jump on your post-high school plans. so a little over four yearsfrom now, bladensburg and your partner schools will graduate hundreds more students withthe knowledge and skills that you’ll need to succeed.

and that’s what we want for all the young people here. we want an education that engagesyou; we want an education that equips you with the rigorous and relevant skills for collegeand for a career.

and i’m confident -- meeting these young people, they were incredible. and a couple of themgiggled a little bit when i walked in, but after they kind of settled down -- (laughter) -- theywere -- they knew their stuff, and they were enjoying it. and that’s part of the message i’ve gotfor all the young people here today, is your potential for success is so high as long as you stayfocused. as long as you’re clear about your goals, you’re going to succeed.

and my message to the older people here -- like me -- is we’ve got a collective responsibilityto make sure that you’re getting those opportunities. and there are resources out there thatwe’ve got to pull into the school setting. businesses, foundations around the country, theywant to fund more careerconnect programs -- because it’s in their interest. they want goodemployees. they’re looking for folks with skills.

when you can say, hey, the math that i’m doing here could change the way the businessoperates; or, i see how this biology e_periment could help develop a drug that cures a disease -- that’s a door opening in your imagination. it’s also good for our economy. it’s good for ourbusinesses. that’s a new career path you’re thinking about that allows you to pursue highereducation in that field, or the very training you need to get a good job, or create a new businessthat changes the world. that’s good for our economy, it’s good for business, it’s good for you,it’s good for america.

as a country, we’ve got to do everything we can to make sure that every single young personhere can have that "aha" moment, that light bulb goes off and suddenly you’re not juststudying because your parents tell you to or your teacher tells you to, you’re studying becauseyou know you’ve got something to offer.

and i want to make sure every student in america has a chance to get that moment -- thatrealization that your education can not just unlock your future and take you places you neverimagined, but you’re also going to be leading this country. that’s the chance that this countrygave to me and michelle. and that’s the chance i want for every single one of you. frompreschool for every four-year-old in america, to higher education for everybody who wants togo, every young person deserves a fair shot. and i’m going to keep on doing everything i can tomake sure you get that shot and to keep america a place where you can make it if you try.

i’m proud of your principal. i’m proud of your superintendent. i’m proud of everybody who gotinvolved in making sure that you guys were already doing the right thing before you won thisnew grant -- and i know it’s going to be well-spent. most of all, i’m proud of the students.

thank you very much, everybody. god bless you. (applause.) go, mustangs! all right. (applause.)

美國總統(tǒng)羅斯福就職演講稿(英文版)

president hoover, mr. chief justice, my friends:

this is a day of national consecration. and i am certain that on this day my fellow americans e_pect that on my induction into the presidency, i will address them with a candor and a decision which the present situation of our people impels.

this is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly. nor need we shrink from honestly facing conditions in our country today. this great nation will endure, as it has endured, will revive and will prosper.

so, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself -- nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. in every dark hour of our national life, a leadership of frankness and of vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory. and i am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days.

in such a spirit on my part and on yours we face our common difficulties. they concern, thank god, only material things. values have shrunk to fantastic levels; ta_es have risen; our ability to pay has fallen; government of all kinds is faced by serious curtailment of income; the means of e_change are frozen in the currents of trade; the withered leaves of industrial enterprise lie on every side; farmers find no markets for their produce; and the savings of many years in thousands of families are gone. more important, a host of unemployed citizens face the grim problem of e_istence, and an equally great number toil with little return. only a foolish optimist can deny the dark realities of the moment.

and yet our distress comes from no failure of substance. we are stricken by no plague of locusts. compared with the perils which our forefathers conquered, because they believed and were not afraid, we have still much to be thankful for. nature still offers her bounty and human efforts have multiplied it. plenty is at our doorstep, but a generous use of it languishes in the very sight of the supply.

primarily, this is because the rulers of the e_change of mankind"s goods have failed, through their own stubbornness and their own incompetence, have admitted their failure, and have abdicated. practices of the unscrupulous money changers stand indicted in the court of public opinion, rejected by the hearts and minds of men.

true, they have tried. but their efforts have been cast in the pattern of an outworn tradition. faced by failure of credit, they have proposed only the lending of more money. stripped of the lure of profit by which to induce our people to follow their false leadership, they have resorted to e_hortations, pleading tearfully for restored confidence. they only know the rules of a generation of self-seekers. they have no vision, and when there is no vision the people perish.

yes, the money changers have fled from their high seats in the temple of our civilization. we may now restore that temple to the ancient truths. the measure of that restoration lies in the e_tent to which we apply social values more noble than mere monetary profit.

happiness lies not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort. the joy, the moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits. these dark days, my friends, will be worth all they cost us if they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered unto but to minister to ourselves, to our fellow men.

recognition of that falsity of material wealth as the standard of success goes hand in hand with the abandonment of the false belief that public office and high political position are to be valued only by the standards of pride of place and personal profit; and there must be an end to a conduct in banking and in business which too often has given to a sacred trust the likeness of callous and selfish wrongdoing. small wonder that confidence languishes, for it thrives only on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection, and on unselfish performance; without them it cannot live.

restoration calls, however, not for changes in ethics alone. this nation is asking for action, and action now.

our greatest primary task is to put people to work. this is no unsolvable problem if we face it wisely and courageously. it can be accomplished in part by direct recruiting by the government itself, treating the task as we would treat the emergency of a war, but at the same time, through this employment, accomplishing great -- greatly needed projects to stimulate and reorganize the use of our great natural resources.

hand in hand with that we must frankly recognize the overbalance of population in our industrial centers and, by engaging on a national scale in a redistribution, endeavor to provide a better use of the land for those best fitted for the land.

yes, the task can be helped by definite efforts to raise the values of agricultural products, and with this the power to purchase the output of our cities. it can be helped by preventing realistically the tragedy of the growing loss through foreclosure of our small homes and our farms. it can be helped by insistence that the federal, the state, and the local governments act forthwith on the demand that their cost be drastically reduced. it can be helped by the unifying of relief activities which today are often scattered, uneconomical, unequal. it can be helped by national planning for and supervision of all forms of transportation and of communications and other utilities that have a definitely public character. there are many ways in which it can be helped, but it can never be helped by merely talking about it.

we must act. we must act quickly.

and finally, in our progress towards a resumption of work, we require two safeguards against a return of the evils of the old order. there must be a strict supervision of all banking and credits and investments. there must be an end to speculation with other people"s money. and there must be provision for an adequate but sound currency.

these, my friends, are the lines of attack. i shall presently urge upon a new congress in special session detailed measures for their fulfillment, and i shall seek the immediate assistance of the 48 states.

through this program of action we address ourselves to putting our own national house in order and making income balance outgo. our international trade relations, though vastly important, are in point of time, and necessity, secondary to the establishment of a sound national economy. i favor, as a practical policy, the putting of first things first. i shall spare no effort to restore world trade by international economic readjustment; but the emergency at home cannot wait on that accomplishment.

the basic thought that guides these specific means of national recovery is not nationally -- narrowly nationalistic. it is the insistence, as a first consideration, upon the interdependence of the various elements in and parts of the united states of america -- a recognition of the old and permanently important manifestation of the american spirit of the pioneer. it is the way to recovery. it is the immediate way. it is the strongest assurance that recovery will endure.

in the field of world policy, i would dedicate this nation to the policy of the good neighbor: the neighbor who resolutely respects himself and, because he does so, respects the rights of others; the neighbor who respects his obligations and respects the sanctity of his agreements in and with a world of neighbors.

if i read the temper of our people correctly, we now realize, as we have never realized before, our interdependence on each other; that we can not merely take, but we must give as well; that if we are to go forward, we must move as a trained and loyal army willing to sacrifice for the good of a common discipline, because without such discipline no progress can be made, no leadership becomes effective.

we are, i know, ready and willing to submit our lives and our property to such discipline, because it makes possible a leadership which aims at the larger good. this, i propose to offer, pledging that the larger purposes will bind upon us, bind upon us all as a sacred obligation with a unity of duty hitherto evoked only in times of armed strife.

with this pledge taken, i assume unhesitatingly the leadership of this great army of our people dedicated to a disciplined attack upon our common problems.

action in this image, action to this end is feasible under the form of government which we have inherited from our ancestors. our constitution is so simple, so practical that it is possible always to meet e_traordinary needs by changes in emphasis and arrangement without loss of essential form. that is why our constitutional system has proved itself the most superbly enduring political mechanism the modern world has ever seen.

it has met every stress of vast e_pansion of territory, of foreign wars, of bitter internal strife, of world relations. and it is to be hoped that the normal balance of e_ecutive and legislative authority may be wholly equal, wholly adequate to meet the unprecedented task before us. but it may be that an unprecedented demand and need for undelayed action may call for temporary departure from that normal balance of public procedure.

i am prepared under my constitutional duty to recommend the measures that a stricken nation in the midst of a stricken world may require. these measures, or such other measures as the congress may build out of its e_perience and wisdom, i shall seek, within my constitutional authority, to bring to speedy adoption.

but, in the event that the congress shall fail to take one of these two courses, in the event that the national emergency is still critical, i shall not evade the clear course of duty that will then confront me. i shall ask the congress for the one remaining instrument to meet the crisis -- broad e_ecutive power to wage a war against the emergency, as great as the power that would be given to me if we were in fact invaded by a foreign foe.

for the trust reposed in me, i will return the courage and the devotion that befit the time. i can do no less.

we face the arduous days that lie before us in the warm courage of national unity; with the clear consciousness of seeking old and precious moral values; with the clean satisfaction that comes from the stern performance of duty by old and young alike. we aim at the assurance of a rounded, a permanent national life.

we do not distrust the -- the future of essential democracy. the people of the united states have not failed. in their need they have registered a mandate that they want direct, vigorous action. they have asked for discipline and direction under leadership. they have made me the present instrument of their wishes. in the spirit of the gift i take it.

in this dedication -- in this dedication of a nation, we humbly ask the blessing of god.

may he protect each and every one of us.

may he guide me in the days to come.

美國總統(tǒng)羅斯福就職演講稿(中文版)

胡佛總統(tǒng)，首席法官先生，朋友們：

今天，對我們的國家來說，是一個神圣的日子。我肯定，同胞們都期待我在就任總統(tǒng)時，會像我國目前形勢所要求的那樣，坦率而果斷地向他們講話?，F(xiàn)在正是坦白、勇敢地說出實話，說出全部實話的最好時刻。我們不必畏首畏尾，不老老實實面對我國今天的情況。這個偉大的國家會一如既往地堅持下去，它會復(fù)興和繁榮起來。因此，讓我首先表明我的堅定信念：我們唯一不得不害怕的就是害怕本身--一種莫名其妙、喪失理智的、毫無根據(jù)的恐懼，它把人轉(zhuǎn)退為進所需的種種努力化為泡影。凡在我國生活陰云密布的時刻，坦率而有活力的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)都得到過人民的理解和支持，從而為勝利準(zhǔn)備了必不可少的條件。我相信，在目前危急時刻，大家會再次給予同樣的支持。

我和你們都要以這種精神，來面對我們共同的困難。感謝上帝，這些困難只是物質(zhì)方面的。價值難以想象地貶縮了;課稅增加了;我們的支付能力下降了;各級政府面臨著嚴(yán)重的收入短缺;交換手段在貿(mào)易過程中遭到了凍結(jié);工業(yè)企業(yè)枯萎的落葉到處可見;農(nóng)場主的產(chǎn)品找不到銷路;千家萬戶多年的積蓄付之東流。

更重要的是，大批失業(yè)公民正面臨嚴(yán)峻的生存問題，還有大批公民正以艱辛的勞動換取微薄的報酬。只有愚蠢的樂天派會否認(rèn)當(dāng)前這些陰暗的現(xiàn)實。

但是，我們的苦惱決不是因為缺乏物資。我們沒有遭到什么蝗蟲的災(zāi)害。我們的先輩曾以信念和無畏一次次轉(zhuǎn)危為安，比起他們經(jīng)歷過的險阻，我們?nèi)源罂筛械叫牢?。大自然仍在給予我們恩惠，人類的努力已使之倍增。富足的情景近在咫尺，但就在我們見到這種 情景的時候，寬裕的生活卻悄然離去。這主要是因為主宰人類物資交換的統(tǒng)治者們失敗了，他們固執(zhí)己見而又無能為力，因而已經(jīng)認(rèn)定失敗了，并撒手不管了。貪得無厭的貨幣兌換商的種種行徑。將受到輿論法庭的起訴，將受到人類心靈理智的唾棄。

是的，他們是努力過，然而他們用的是一種完全過時的方法。面對信貸的失敗，他們只是提議借出更多的錢。沒有了當(dāng)誘餌引誘 人民追隨他們的錯誤領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的金錢，他們只得求助于講道，含淚祈求人民重新給予他們信心。他們只知自我追求者們的處世規(guī)則。他們沒有眼光，而沒有眼光的人是要滅亡的。

如今，貨幣兌換商已從我們文明廟宇的高處落荒而逃。我們要以千古不變的真理來重建這座廟宇。衡量這重建的尺度是我們體現(xiàn)比金錢利益更高尚的社會價值的程度。

幸福并不在于單純地占有金錢;幸福還在于取得成就后的喜悅，在于創(chuàng)造努力時的激情。務(wù)必不能再忘記勞動帶來的喜悅和激勵，而去瘋狂地追逐那轉(zhuǎn)瞬即逝的利潤。如果這些暗淡的時日能使我們認(rèn)識到，我們真正的天命不是要別人侍奉，而是為自己和同胞們服務(wù)，那么，我們付出的代價就完全是值得的。

認(rèn)識到把物質(zhì)財富當(dāng)作成功的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是錯誤的，我們就會拋棄以地位尊嚴(yán)和個人收益為唯一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，來衡量公職和高級政治地位的錯誤信念;我們必須制止銀行界和企業(yè)界的一種行為，它常常使神圣的委托混同于無情和自私的不正當(dāng)行為。難怪信心在減弱，信心，只有靠誠實、信譽、忠心維護和無私履行職責(zé)。而沒有這些，就不可能有信心。

但是，復(fù)興不僅僅只要改變倫理觀念。這個國家要求行動起來，現(xiàn)在就行動起來。

我們最大、最基本的任務(wù)是讓人民投入工作。只要我信行之以智慧和勇氣，這個問題就可以解決。這可以部分由政府直接征募完成，就象對待臨戰(zhàn)的緊要關(guān)頭一樣，但同時，在有了人手的情況下，我們還急需能刺激并重組巨大自然資源的工程。

我們齊心協(xié)力，但必須坦白地承認(rèn)工業(yè)中心的人口失衡，我們必須在全國范圍內(nèi)重新分配，使土地在最適合的人手中發(fā)表揮更大作用。

明確地為提高農(nóng)產(chǎn)品價值并以此購買城市產(chǎn)品所做的努力，會有助于任務(wù)的完成。避免許多小家庭業(yè)、農(nóng)場業(yè)被取消贖取抵押品的權(quán)利的悲劇也有助于任務(wù)的完成。聯(lián)邦、州、各地政府立即行動回應(yīng)要求降價的呼聲，有助于任務(wù)的完成。將現(xiàn)在常常是分散不經(jīng)濟、不平等的救濟活動統(tǒng)一起來有助于任務(wù)的完成。對所有公共交通運輸，通訊及其他涉及公眾生活的設(shè)施作全國性的計劃及監(jiān)督有助于任務(wù)的完成。許多事情都有助于任務(wù)完成，但這些決不包括空談。我們必須行動，立即行動。

最后，為了重新開始工作，我們需要兩手防御，來抗御舊秩序惡魔卷土從來;一定要有嚴(yán)格監(jiān)督銀行業(yè)、信貸及投資的機制：一定要杜絕投機;一定要有充足而健康的貨幣供應(yīng)。

以上這些，朋友們，就是施政方針。我要在特別會議上敦促新國會給予詳細(xì)實施方案，并且，我要向18個州請求立即的援助。

通過行動，我們將予以我們自己一個有秩序的國家大廈，使收入大于支出。我們的國際貿(mào)易，雖然很重要，但現(xiàn)在在時間和必要性上，次于對本國健康經(jīng)濟的建立。我建議，作為可行的策略、首要事務(wù)先行。雖然我將不遺余力通過國際經(jīng)濟重新協(xié)調(diào)所來恢復(fù)國際貿(mào)易，但我認(rèn)為國內(nèi)的緊急情況無法等待這重新協(xié)調(diào)的完成。

指導(dǎo)這一特別的全國性復(fù)蘇的基本思想并非狹隘的國家主義。我首先考慮的是堅持美國這一整體中各部分的相互依賴性--這是對美國式的開拓精神的古老而永恒的證明的體現(xiàn)。這才是復(fù)蘇之路，是即時之路，是保證復(fù)蘇功效持久之路。

在國際政策方面，我將使美國采取睦鄰友好的政策。做一個決心自重，因此而尊重鄰國的國家。做一個履行義務(wù)，尊重與他國協(xié)約的國家。

如果我對人民的心情的了解正確的話，我想我們已認(rèn)識到了我們從未認(rèn)識的問題，我們是互相依存的，我們不可以只索取，我們還必須奉獻(xiàn)。我們前進時，必須象一支訓(xùn)練有素的忠誠的軍隊，愿意為共同的原則而獻(xiàn)身，因為，沒有這些原則，就無法取得進步，領(lǐng)導(dǎo)就不可能得力。我們都已做好準(zhǔn)備，并愿意為此原則獻(xiàn)出生命和財產(chǎn)，因為這將使志在建設(shè)更美好社會的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)成為可能。我倡議，為了更偉大的目標(biāo)，我們所有的人，以一致的職責(zé)緊緊團結(jié)起來。這是神圣的義務(wù)，非戰(zhàn)亂，不停止。

有了這樣的誓言，我將毫不猶豫地承擔(dān)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)偉大人民大軍的任務(wù)，致力于對我們普遍問題的強攻。這樣的行動，這樣的目標(biāo)，在我們從祖先手中接過的政府中是可行的。我們的憲法如此簡單，實在。它隨時可以應(yīng)付特殊情況，只需對重點和安排加以修改而不喪失中心思想，正因為如此，我們的憲法體制已自證為是最有適應(yīng)性的政治體制。它已應(yīng)付過巨大的國土擴張、外戰(zhàn)、內(nèi)亂及國際關(guān)系所帶來的壓力。

而我們還希望行使法律的人士做到充分的平等，能充分地?fù)?dān)負(fù)前所未有的任務(wù)。但現(xiàn)在前所未有的對緊急行動的需要要求國民暫時丟棄平常生活節(jié)奏，緊迫起來。

讓我們正視面前的嚴(yán)峻歲月，懷著舉國一致給我們帶來的熱情和勇氣，懷著尋求傳統(tǒng)的、珍貴的道德觀念的明確意識，懷著老老少少都能通過克盡職守而得到的問心無愧的滿足。我們的目標(biāo)是要保證國民生活的圓滿和長治久安。

我們并不懷疑基本民主制度的未來。合眾國人民并沒有失敗。他們在困難中表達(dá)了自己的委托，即要求采取直接而有力的行動。他們要求有領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的紀(jì)律和方向。他們現(xiàn)在選擇了我作為實現(xiàn)他們的愿望的工具。我接受這份厚贈。

在此舉國奉獻(xiàn)之際，我們謙卑地請求上帝賜福。愿上帝保信我們大家和每一個人，愿上帝在未來的日子里指引我。

good evening, everybody. i just want to make a fewbrief comments about the attacks across paristonight. once again, we"ve seen an outrageousattempt to terrorize innocent civilians. this is anattack not just on paris, it"s an attack not just on thepeople of france, but this is an attack on all ofhumanity and the universal values that we share.

we stand prepared and ready to provide whateverassistance that the government and the people offrance need to respond. france is our oldest ally.the french people have stood shoulder to shoulder with the united states time and again.and we want to be very clear that we stand together with them in the fight against terrorismand e_tremism.

paris itself represents the timeless values of human progress. those who think that they canterrorize the people of france or the values that they stand for are wrong. the american peopledraw strength from the french people"s commitment to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness.we are reminded in this time of tragedy that the bonds of liberté and égalité and fraternité arenot only values that the french people care so deeply about, but they are values that we share.and those values are going to endure far beyond any act of terrorism or the hateful vision ofthose who perpetrated the crimes this evening.

we"re going to do whatever it takes to work with the french people and with nations around theworld to bring these terrorists to justice, and to go after any terrorist networks that go after ourpeople.

we don"t yet know all the details of what has happened. we have been in contact with frenchofficials to communicate our deepest condolences to the families of those who have beenkilled, to offer our prayers and thoughts to those who have been wounded. we have offered ourfull support to them. the situation is still unfolding. i"ve chosen not to call president hollande atthis time, because my e_pectation is that he"s very busy at the moment. i actually, bycoincidence, was talking to him earlier today in preparation for the g20 meeting. but i amconfident that i"ll be in direct communications with him in the ne_t few days, and we"ll becoordinating in any ways that they think are helpful in the investigation of what"s happened.

this is a heartbreaking situation. and obviously those of us here in the united states know whatit"s like. we"ve gone through these kinds of episodes ourselves. and whenever these kinds ofattacks happened, we"ve always been able to count on the french people to stand with us. theyhave been an e_traordinary counterterrorism partner, and we intend to be there with themin that same fashion.

i"m sure that in the days ahead we"ll learn more about e_actly what happened, and my teamswill make sure that we are in communication with the press to provide you accurateinformation. i don"t want to speculate at this point in terms of who was responsible for this. itappears that there may still be live activity and dangers that are taking place as we speak. andso until we know from french officials that the situation is under control, and we have for moreinformation about it, i don"t want to speculate.

thank you very much.

the president: hello, everybody! (applause.) can everybody please give lisbeth a biground of applause? that was a great introduction. (applause.)

happy halloween, everybody. i see a lot of you came as college students. (applause.)

audience member: we love you!

the president: i love you, too. those of you who have seats, feel free to sit down. those ofyou who don’t, don’t. (laughter.) i am not going to be too long. i’ve got to get back and trick-or-treat tonight with michelle. although, malia and sasha are a little old --

audience: aww --

the president: it’s so sad. (laughter.) i used to be able to -- we’d dress them up, and westill have the pictures. they’ll resent them later, but at the time they were fine with it. theywere so cute.

a good thing about being president is we never run out of presidential m&ms -- (laughter) -- so we’re going to be giving those out.

audience: (inaudible.) (laughter.)

the president: you want some? is that what you said? only to kids. (laughter.)

we’re so proud of lisbeth, not just for the wonderful introduction but for being so determinedabout her education. and she’s a really remarkable young lady. i had a chance to speak to herbefore we came out. it turns out she went to school with my niece and nephew --

audience member: classical!

the president: that’s right. at classical, is that right? so that was neat.

i have also brought some halloween characters with me: our secretary of labor, tom perez. (applause.) they are all dressed up as really outstanding public servants. (laughter.) andtom has just been doing e_traordinary work. his lovely daughter is there, who’s a freshman atbrown. your great senators, jack reed and sheldon whitehouse. (applause.) your outstandingcongressman, david cicilline, is here. (applause.) jim langevin is here. (applause.) and we’reproud of both of them.

but despite how much i love all the folks i just mentioned, the people i really came to see isyou. (applause.) because every decision i make every single day -- all the policies i pursue aspresident -- are all aimed at making sure we restore the promise of this country for yourgeneration and for every generation that comes after.

now, the good news is we’ve made a lot of progress since the worst economic crisis of ourlifetimes. so when i first came into office, the economy was in a freefall, the auto industry wasin a freefall. banks were frozen up. we were losing 800,000 jobs a month. over the past 55months, our businesses have now added 10.3 million new jobs. (applause.) for the first time inmore than si_ years, the unemployment rate is below 6 percent. over the past si_ months,our economy has grown at its fastest pace in more than 10 years.

and in education, dropout rates are down, the national graduation rate is the highest on record,more young people are earning their college degrees than ever before. (applause.) good job,young people.

in energy, we’re less dependent on foreign oil than any time in nearly three decades.manufacturing -- the quintessential producer of middle-class jobs, the heart of rhode island’seconomy for decades -- manufacturing has now created 700,000 new jobs since early 2024. tenmillion americans have gained the peace of mind that comes with having health insurance. (applause.)

audience member: thank you!

the president: you’re welcome.

deficits have come down. health care inflation has come down. there’s almost no economicmeasure by which we haven’t made substantial progress over this period of time. we’rebetter off than we were. (applause.)

so, look, the progress has been hard. it’s sometimes been challenging in particular states.but it’s been steady and it’s been real. now, the thing is, though, what’s also true is thatmillions of americans don’t yet feel the benefits of a growing economy where it matters most --and that’s in their own lives. there are still a lot of folks who are working hard, but havingtrouble making ends meet.

i know that many of you are working while you go to school. some of you are helping supportyour parents or siblings. here in rhode island, and across the country, there are still too manypeople who are working too many hours and don’t have enough to show for it. and this isn’tjust the hangover from the great recession; some of this has to do with trends that date back20, 30 years. and i’ve always said that recovering from the crisis of 2024 was the first thing wehad to do, but our economy won’t be healthy until we reverse some of these longer-termtrends, this erosion of middle-class jobs and income.

and here in rhode island, my administration recently announced a grant to help more long-term unemployed folks get the training and mentoring they need to get back to work. (applause.) and all across the country, we’re taking similar actions, community bycommunity, to keep making progress.

we’ve got to harness the momentum that we’re seeing in the broader economy and makesure the economy is working for every single american. we’ve got to keep making smartchoices. and today, here at ric, i want to focus on some common-sense steps we can take tohelp working families right now. in particular, i want to zero in on the choices we need tomake to ensure that women are full and equal participants in the economy. (applause.)

now, men, i don’t want you to feel neglected. i like men just fine. (laughter.) but part of thereason that i want this focus is because i was raised by a single mom, and know what it was likefor her to raise two kids and go to work at the same time, and try to piece things togetherwithout a lot of support. and my grandmother, who never graduated from college but workedher way up to become vice president of a bank, i know what it was like for her to hit the glassceiling, and to see herself passed over for promotions by people that she had trained. and sosome of this is personal, but some of it is also what we know about our economy, which is it’schanging in profound ways, and in many ways for the better because of the participation ofwomen more fully in our economy.

so earlier today, i met with a group of women business owners and working moms, and lisbethand your president here, and they were sharing stories that probably sound familiar to a lot ofpeople -- studying for finals after working a full shift; searching for childcare when thebabysitter cancels at the last minute; using every penny of their savings so they can afford tostay home with their new baby.

and so i kept on hearing my own story. i kept on hearing about my mom struggling to putherself through school, or my grandmother hitting that glass ceiling. and i thought aboutmichelle, and i told some stories about when michelle and i were younger and getting starting,and we were struggling to balance two careers while raising a family. and my job forced me totravel a lot, which made it harder on michelle, and we would feel some of the guilt that somany people feel -- we’re working, we’re thinking about the kids, we’re wondering whetherwe’re bad parents, we’re wondering whether we were doing what we need to do on the job. andas the catch-22 of working parents, we wanted to spend time with our kids, but we also wantedto make sure that we gave them the opportunities that our hard work was providing.

and then, of course, i think about my daughters. and the idea that my daughters wouldn’thave the same opportunities as somebody’s sons -- well, that’s unacceptable. that’s notacceptable. (applause.)

so i say all this because -- to the men here, we all have a stake in choosing policies that helpwomen succeed. women make up about half of america’s workforce. (applause.) for more thantwo decades, women have earned over half of the higher education degrees awarded in thiscountry. and you look at the ric student body, almost 70 percent women. (applause.) incolleges nationwide, there are more women graduating than men -- which means that for thefirst time, america’s highly educated workforce will be made up of more women than men. (applause.)

but here’s the challenge -- that’s all good news -- the challenge is, our economy and some ofthe laws and rules governing our workplaces haven’t caught up with that reality. a lot ofworkplaces haven’t caught up with that reality. so while many women are working hard tosupport themselves and their families, they’re still facing unfair choices, outdated workplacepolicies. that holds them back, but it also holds all of us back. we have to do better, becausewomen deserve better. and, by the way, when women do well, everybody does well. (applause.)

so women deserve a day off to care for a sick child or sick parent without running intohardship. and rhode island has got the right idea. you’re one of just three states where paidfamily leave is the law of the land. (applause.) more states should choose to follow your lead.

it was interesting talking to some of the small business owners in the meeting. they weresaying how the rhode island law actually helped them do a better job recruiting and retainingoutstanding employees. and so that shows you something -- that this is not just a nice thingto do; it’s good policy. it’s good for business. it’s good for the economy. (applause.)

without paid leave, when a baby arrives or an aging parent needs help, workers have to makepainful decisions about whether they can afford to be there when their families need themmost. many women can’t even get a paid day off to give birth to their child. i mean, there are alot of companies that still don’t provide maternity leave. of course, dads should be there, too.so let’s make this happen for women and for men, and make our economy stronger. (applause.) we’ve got to broaden our laws for family leave.

moms and dads deserve a great place to drop their kids off every day that doesn’t cost theman arm and a leg. we need better childcare, daycare, early childhood education policies. (applause.) in many states, sending your child to daycare costs more than sending them to apublic university.

audience member: true!

the president: true. (laughter.) and too often, parents have no choice but to put theirkids in cheaper daycare that maybe doesn’t have the kinds of programming that makes a bigdifference in a child’s development. and sometimes there may just not be any slots, or the bestprograms may be too far away. and sometimes, someone, usually mom, leaves the workplace tostay home with the kids, which then leaves her earning a lower wage for the rest of her life as aresult. and that’s not a choice we want americans to make.

so let’s make this happen. by the end of this decade, let’s enroll 6 million children in high-quality preschool, and let’s make sure that we are making america stronger. that is good forfamilies; it’s also good for the children, because we know investing in high-quality earlychildhood education makes all the difference in the world, and those kids will do better. so weneed family leave, we need better child care policies, and we need to make sure that women getan honest day’s pay for an honest day’s work. (applause.)

about 28 million americans would benefit if we raised the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour -- (applause) -- like sheldon whitehouse and jack reed support. and let me say this: minimumwage -- those aren’t just teenage jobs that are impacted. we’re not just talking about youngpeople. my first job was at baskin robbins. and i got paid the minimum wage and it was okay.wearing that hat and the apron was -- (laughter) -- yeah.

but the truth is, the average worker who would benefit from an increase in the minimum wageis 35 years old -- 35. a majority of low-wage workers are women. a lot of them have kids.right now, somebody working full-time on the minimum wage makes $14,500 a year -- $14,500. if they’re a parent, that means they’re below the poverty line. nobody who worksfull-time in america should be below the poverty line. (applause.) they should not be raisingtheir kids below the poverty line. i am not going to give up this fight. and we needrepublicans in congress to stop blocking a minimum wage increase and give america a raise. (applause.)

and if a woman is doing the same work as a man, she deserves to get paid just like the mandoes. (applause.) even though it’s 2024, there are women still earning less than men for doingthe same work. and women of color face an even greater wage gap. (applause.) and at a timewhen women are the primary breadwinners in more households than ever, that hurts the wholefamily if they’re not getting paid fairly. again, men, i just want you to pay attention. whenmichelle and i were starting off, there were stretches of time where michelle was making moremoney than me, and i wanted to make sure she was making every dime that she deserved. (laughter.) right? i don’t know how i benefit by her getting paid less than a man. right?

audience: right!

the president: okay! men, i just want you to be clear. (laughter.)

and it starts with recent college graduates. women often start their careers with lower pay, andthen the gap grows over time -- especially if they get passed over for promotions and then theyget fewer raises, or they take time off to care for family members. so you get a situation wherewomen are doing the same work as men, but the structure, the e_pectations somehow is, well,they’ll take time off for family, and once they take time off that means that it’s okay to paythem a little bit less. and that builds up over time.

and we’ve got to have a reversal of those kinds of policies and that kind of mindset. we’ve gotto catch up to the 21st century. we need to pass a fair pay law, make our economy stronger. itwill be good for america, and it will be good for our families and good for our kids. (applause.)

while we’re on the topic, women deserve to make their own health care choices -- notpoliticians or insurance companies. (applause.) and that’s why the affordable care act is soimportant. (applause.) insurance plans -- because we passed the affordable care act,insurance plans now have to cover the basics, including contraceptive care, and prenatal care,and maternity care. (applause.)

that means a working mom doesn’t have to put off the care she needs just so she can pay herbills on time. tens of millions of women have new access to preventive care like mammogramswith no co-pays, no out-of-pocket e_penses. (applause.) it means that a cash-strapped studentdoesn’t have to choose between the care that she needs and the cost of te_tbooks. (applause.)

and because of the affordable care act, because of obamacare -- (applause) -- because of thatlaw, no insurance company can deny you coverage based on a pree_isting condition like breastcancer, or charge you more for the same care just because you’re a woman. (applause.) that’sthe right thing to do.

so no matter how many times republicans threaten to repeal this law, we’re going to keep itin place -- because it’s working. (applause.) not only is it covering more people, not only is itprotecting women and people with pree_isting conditions from discrimination, but it’s actuallybeen part of the trend that’s lowering health care inflation. we’re actually saving moneybecause the system is getting smarter and there’s more preventive care instead of emergencycare, and we’re changing how health care is delivered. (applause.) which is why i’m pretty surethat in 10 years they’re not going to call it obamacare anymore. (laughter.) republicans will belike, oh, i was for that, yes. (laughter.) that’s how that works.

audience member: we’ll remember.

the president: you’ll remember though. you’ll remind them. (applause.)

now, to really make sure that women are full and equal participants in our economy, we can dosome of this administratively. but it requires not just changing laws; it requires changingattitudes. and more and more companies are changing attitudes. and this is really good news.

jetblue, for e_ample, has a fle_ible work-from-home plan for its customer service reps. they’vefound it’s led to happier, more productive employees and lower costs. google increased paidleave for new parents -- moms and dads -- to five months -- five months -- and that helped cutthe rate of women leaving the company by half. and when i was having a conversation withsome of the women business owners before i came out here, they were saying it’s really costlywhen you lose a good employee and you’ve got to train somebody all over again. it’s muchmore sensible from a business perspective to invest in them and make them feel like you’vegot their backs, and they’ll stay with you.

and it’s not just these big corporations that are embracing these policies. so cheryl snead, whois the ceo of banneker industries -- where’s cheryl? she was here just a second. there she isback there. so banneker industries, a supply chain management firm, is based in northsmithfield. and when cheryl was in college, she studied mechanical engineering. at the time,there weren’t that many african american women in mechanical engineering. there stillaren’t. (laughter.) we’re working to change that.

cheryl wants to do something about that. her company has made it a priority to find talentedyoung women and minority students, encourage them to study science and math in college,hire them once they graduate. (applause.) and what cheryl was e_plaining was that having adiverse workforce, having more women in the workforce, all that makes her a strongercompany. and it’s not just good for the workers -- it’s good for business.

so if large businesses like google, small businesses like cheryl’s all see the wisdom of this, let’sjoin them. let’s encourage more women and more girls into fields like science and technologyand engineering and math. and let’s work with those companies to ensure that family-friendlypolicies can support more women in that workforce. (applause.)

ann-marie harrington -- where is ann? ann-marie is right here. so ann-marie, she’s thepresident of a company called embolden, based in pawtucket. and it provides web services tocommunity foundations and non-profits. a small business -- about 20 employees; 21 i thinkshe said. she just hired somebody, must have been. (laughter.) but she lets them work fromhome and keep a fle_ible schedule when they need to. and she says that’s increased hercompany’s productivity.

so i’m taking a page from these companies’ playbooks. this summer i directed the federalagencies in the e_ecutive branch to put fle_ible workplace policies in wherever possible;make it clear that all federal employees have the right to request them. we want the besttalent to serve our country, and that means making it a little bit easier for them to maintainthat work-family balance.

but these are issues that are too important to hinge on whether or not your boss isenlightened. we have to raise our voices to demand that women get paid fairly. we’ve got toraise our voices to make sure women can take time off to care for a loved one, and that momsand dads can spend time with a new baby. we’ve got to raise our voices to make sure that ourwomen maintain and keep their own health care choices. we’ve got to raise our voices tobasically do away with policies and politicians that belong in a "mad men" episode. "mad men"is a good show, but that’s not who we want making decisions about our workplaces these days.when women succeed, america succeeds. and we need leaders who understand that. that’swhat we need. (applause.)

so if you care about these policies, you got to keep pushing for them. this shouldn’t bepartisan. republicans and democrats should be supportive of all these issues.

i was talking to tom perez; he had just come back from europe. he was talking to chambers ofcommerce and conservative politicians. they were all supportive of family leave, supportiveof childcare, because they understood it actually made the economy more productive. thisisn’t a liberal or conservative agenda.

when i talk to women, like the ones i spoke to earlier, when i hear folks’ stories from acrossthe country, and when i think about my own mom and how she made it all work, or mygrandmother, nobody is looking at these issues through partisan lenses. we’re not democratsfirst or republicans first, we are americans first. and as americans, it’s up to us to protect andrestore the ideals that made this country great. (applause.)

and that is, that in this country, no matter who you are, what you look like, where you comefrom, whether you are male or you are female -- here in america, you can make it if you try.that’s the promise of america. that’s the future i’m going to fight for. (applause.) i want youto fight there with me.

thank you, everybody. god bless you.

good afternoon, everybody, andhappy thanksgiving.

the office of the presidency --the most powerful position in the world -- brings with it manyawesome andsolemn responsibilities. this is not oneof them. (laughter.) but the white houseturkey pardon is a greattradition. and i know malia loves it --as does sasha.

generally speaking, thanksgivingis a bad day to be a turkey. especiallyat a house with twodogs. so i saluteour two guests of honor -- caramel and popcorn -- for their bravery. theycameall the way from outside badger, minnesota to be with us. they, like my chief of staff, arevikingsfans. (laughter.) i’m not sure that theyknow -- (turkeys gobble) -- uh-oh.

now, 80 turkeys on john’s farmcompeted for the chance to make it to the white house, andstay off thethanksgiving table. it was, quite literally, the hunger games. (laughter.) and then,after weeks of vocal practice and prepping for the cameras,the two tributes, caramel andpopcorn went head-to-head together for america’svote as top gobbler.

the competition was stiff, but wecan officially declare that popcorn is the winner -- (applause) -- proving thateven a turkey with a funny name can find a place in politics. (laughter.) as for caramel, he’s sticking around, and he’s already busy raisingmoney for hisne_t campaign. (laughter.)

on a more serious note, latertoday, michelle, malia, sasha, and i will bring a couple lessfortunate turkeysto a great organization that works to help out our neighbors here in d.c.whoneed it most. and i want to thankjaindl’s turkey farm in orefield, pennsylvania, fordonating those dressedbirds for the fifth year in a row. thisis a reminder that this is a seasonto not only be thankful for the incredibleblessings that we have, but also to remember theneediest and generously servethose who are not as fortunate.

this is a quintessentiallyamerican holiday, and during this time we give thanks to ourfriends and ourfamily, for citizens who show compassion to those in need, and forneighborswho help strangers they’ve never met. wegive thanks for the blessings of freedomand opportunity that previousgenerations worked so hard to secure for. and we give thanksfor the service and sacrifice of our brave men andwomen in uniform who serve our nationaround the world.

for those of you who arewatching, you keep us safe. you make usproud, and you remind usof our own obligations to build on the work of ourpredecessors and leave something better forour own kids.

so on behalf of the obama family,i want to wish everybody a very happy thanksgiving.tomorrow, as we gather with our own friendsand family, we’ll count ourselves lucky that there’smore to be thankful forthan we can ever say, and more to be hopeful for than we can everimagine.

and now, before these turkeys getaway -- with the power vested in me, i want to grantpopcorn a fullreprieve. come on. (laughter.) popcorn, you have a full reprieve fromcranberrysauce and stuffing. we wish youwell. and we’re going to give carmel abreak as well.

all right? (laughter.) congratulations, everybody. (applause.) happythanksgiving,everybody. see you, popcorn.(applause.) get out of the rain. (laughter.)

one of the most accomplished americans ever to serve our democracy

remarks by the president

on the passing of senator edward m. kennedy

blue heron farm

chilmark, massachusetts

9:57 a.m. edt

the president: i wanted to say a few words this morning about the passing of an e_traordinary leader, senator edward kennedy.

over the past several years, i"ve had the honor to call teddy a colleague, a counselor, and a friend. and even though we have known this day was coming for some time now, we awaited it with no small amount of dread.

since teddy"s diagnosis last year, we"ve seen the courage with which he battled his illness. and while these months have no doubt been difficult for him, they"ve also let him hear from people in every corner of our nation and from around the world just how much he meant to all of us. his fight has given us the opportunity we were denied when his brothers john and robert were taken from us: the blessing of time to say thank you -- and goodbye.

the outpouring of love, gratitude, and fond memories to which we"ve all borne witness is a testament to the way this singular figure in american history touched so many lives. his ideas and ideals are stamped on scores of laws and reflected in millions of lives -- in seniors who know new dignity, in families that know new opportunity, in children who know education"s promise, and in all who can pursue their dream in an america that is more equal and more just -- including myself.

the kennedy name is synonymous with the democratic party. and at times, ted was the target of partisan campaign attacks. but in the united states senate, i can think of no one who engendered greater respect or affection from members of both sides of the aisle. his seriousness of purpose was perpetually matched by humility, warmth, and good cheer. he could passionately battle others and do so peerlessly on the senate floor for the causes that he held dear, and yet still maintain warm friendships across party lines.

and that"s one reason he became not only one of the greatest senators of our time, but one of the most accomplished americans ever to serve our democracy.

his e_traordinary life on this earth has come to an end. and the e_traordinary good that he did lives on. for his family, he was a guardian. for america, he was the defender of a dream.

i spoke earlier this morning to senator kennedy"s beloved wife, vicki, who was to the end such a wonderful source of encouragement and strength. our thoughts and prayers are with her, his children kara, edward, and patrick; his stepchildren curran and caroline; the entire kennedy family; decades" worth of his staff; the people of massachusetts; and all americans who, like us, loved ted kennedy.

vice president hu,thank you very much for your kind and generous remarks. thank you for welcoming me and my wife , laura, here.

i see she is keeping pretty good company with the secretary of state, collin powell.

it is good to see you, mr. secretary.

and i see my national security adviser, ms.codoleezza rice, who once was the provost of stanford university, so she is comfortable on the university campuses such as this.

thank you for being here ,codin.

i am so grateful for the hospitality and honored for the reception at one of china’s and the world’s great universities.

the standards and the reputation of this university are known around the world, and i know what an achievement it is to be here. so congratulations.

my visit to china comes an important anniversary, as the vice president mentioned.thirty years ago this week an american president arrived in china on an trip designed to end decades of estrangement and confront centuries of suspicious. president richard ni_on showed that two vastly different government could meet on the grounds of common interests in the spirit of mutual respect.

as they left the airport that day, premier zhou en-lai said this to president ni_on: “you handshake came over the vastest ocean in the world-25years of no communication.

during the 30 years since, america and china have e_changed many handshakes of friendship and commerce. and as we have had more contact with each other ,the citizens of both countries have gradually learned more about each other.

it was my honor to visit china in 1975.some of you were not even born then. it shows how old i am.

and a lot has changed in your country since then. china has made amazing progress in openness and enterprise and economic freedom. and this progress previews china’s great potential. china has joined the world trade organization, and as you live up to its obligations, they inevitably will bring changes to chinese leagal system. a morden china will have a consistent rule of law to govern commerce and secure the rights of its people.

the new china you generation is building will need the profound wisdom of your traditions. the lure of materialism challenges society in our country- and in many successful countries.

all these changes will lead to a stronger, more confident china, a china that can astonish and enrich the world, a china that you generation will help create.

this is one of the mose e_citing times in the history of your country, a time when even the grandest hopes seem in your reach. my nation offers you our respect and our friendship.

si_ years from now, athletes from america and all around the world will come to you country for the olympic games, and i am confident they will find a china that is becoming a daguo, a leading nation, at peace with its people and at peace with the world.

非常感謝__主席熱情洋溢的歡迎致詞，非常感謝您再這里接待我和我的夫人勞拉。

我發(fā)現(xiàn)她和國務(wù)卿科林。鮑威爾先生相處的非常好。

很高興看到你國務(wù)卿先生。

我也看到了我的國家安全顧問康多莉薩.賴斯女士，她曾經(jīng)是斯坦福大學(xué)的校長，因此她回到校園是再合適不過了。

謝謝你能來，康迪。

非常感謝各位對我的熱情接待，很榮幸能夠來到中國，甚至是世界最偉大的學(xué)府之一。

清華大學(xué)的治學(xué)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和聲望聞名于世，我也知道能考入這所大學(xué)本身就是一個很大的成就，祝賀你們。

我這次訪華恰逢一個重要的紀(jì)念日，副主席剛才也談到了，30年前的這一周，一位美國總統(tǒng)來到了中國，他訪華之旅的目的是為了結(jié)速兩國之間長達(dá)數(shù)十年的隔閡。，和數(shù)百年的相互猜疑。尼克松總統(tǒng)向世界表明了兩個有重大差異的國家，本著互惠互利，互相尊重的精神是能夠站在一起的。

那天他們離開機場的時候，周恩來總理對尼克松總統(tǒng)說了這樣一番話，他說：“你與我的握手越過了世界上最為遼闊的海洋，這個還有就是互不交往的25年。”

30年以來，美國和中國握過多次友誼之手和商業(yè)之手。隨著我們兩國間接觸的日益頻繁，我們兩國的國民也加深了對彼此的了解，這是非常重要的。

我在1975年有幸訪問過中國，那時候在座的有些人可能還沒有出生，這也表明我是多么老了。

從那時以來，貴國發(fā)生了很多變化。中國在開發(fā)，企業(yè)，經(jīng)濟自由方面都取得了驚人的成績。這一成績顯示了中國的巨大潛能。中國已經(jīng)加入了世貿(mào)組織，在各位旅行其義務(wù)的同時這些義務(wù)勢必給中國的法律制度帶來變化。一個現(xiàn)代化的中國將有著統(tǒng)一的法制來規(guī)范他們的商業(yè)生活和保障人民的利益。

你們這一代人正在建設(shè)的中國也需要深遠(yuǎn)傳統(tǒng)的智慧結(jié)晶。物質(zhì)利益的誘惑對我們的社會造成了挑戰(zhàn)-在我們的國家給我們的社會造成了調(diào)整，在很多發(fā)達(dá)國家也是。

所以的這些變化將導(dǎo)致中國更強大，更自信，這個中國將使世界矚目，也將使世界更加豐富。

這個這個就是諸位這一代幫助創(chuàng)立的中國。現(xiàn)在使中國歷史上非常令人振奮的一個時期，此時此刻連最宏偉的夢想似乎也唾手可得。我的國度，對中國表示尊敬和友誼。

再過六年，來自美國和世界各地的運動員將到貴國參加奧運會，我堅信，他們能夠見到的中國是一個正在變成大國的中國，一個走在世界前沿的國家，一個民心安定，與世界和平共處的國家。
