Hillary Clinton upstaged President Barack Obama with a surprise appearance at the end of his Democratic National Convention speech.
在美国民主党代表大会上,希拉里·克林顿在美国总统巴拉克·奥巴马的演讲接近尾声之际突然现身,抢尽了风头。
The president and his one-time rival turned friend shared a long hug and paraded around the stage at the end of the night while Obama's 2008 campaign song, 'Signed, Sealed, Delivered,' blared over a loudspeaker.
奥巴马和他这位曾经的对手现在已成为好友,在(当晚)大会结束之际互相拥抱并环场一周,此时奥巴马08年的竞选歌曲《签署、密封、交付》在扬声器中高声响起。
以下为奥巴马此次演讲精选:
'America, you have vindicated that hope these past eight years. And now I’m ready to pass the baton and do my part as a private citizen,' he said. This year, in this election, I’m asking you to join me – to reject cynicism, reject fear, to summon what’s best in us; to elect Hillary Clinton as the next President of the United States, and show the world we still believe in the promise of this great nation.'
“美国,这八年来你维护了人们的希望。现在,我要将接力棒传递下去,并做好一个美国公民应有的本分。”他如此说道,“今年,此次竞选中,我请求你们能够与我一起反对犬儒主义、抵制恐惧,去召唤我们中最出色的那个人,去选择希拉里·克林顿作为美国的下一任总统,并告诉全世界:我们仍旧相信我们伟大祖国的承诺。”
'Hillary knows we can insist on a lawful and orderly immigration system while still seeing striving students and their toiling parents as loving families, not criminals or rapists.'.
“希拉里明白,我们能够在坚持合法有序的移民制度的同时、见证勤奋刻苦的学子和辛勤耕耘的父母组成美满家庭——没有不法之徒,也没有骇人色魔。”
'She knows their dream is quintessentially American, and the American Dream is something no wall will ever contain.'
“她明白他们的梦想是典型的美国梦,而美国梦是无边无际的。”
'And no matter how daunting the odds; no matter how much people try to knock her down, she never, ever, quits.'
“无论获胜的可能性有多微小,无论有多少人想要击垮她,她永远都不会放弃。”
Obama also backed up Clinton's 'judgement' - which is evidenced by her selection of Tim Kaine to be her vice president, he said.
奥巴马对于克林顿的“意见”也给予了支持——将选择蒂姆·凯恩作为她的副总统。
'Tim Kaine is as good a man, as humble and as committed a public servant as anybody that I know. I know his family. I love Anne. I love their kids. He will be a great vice president,' Obama said, vouching for the U.S. Senator.
“和我认识的每一个人民公仆一样,蒂姆·凯恩是一个谦虚忠诚的好人。我和他家人也很熟悉。我爱安妮。我爱他们的孩子。他将会是一个出色的副总统。”奥巴马这样向美国参议院担保道。
Returning to Clinton, Obama said: 'Hillary has got her share of critics. She has been caricatured by the right and by some on the left. She has been accused of everything you can imagine - and some things that you cannot. But she knows that’s what happens when you’re under a microscope for 40 years.
说回克林顿,奥巴马又说:“希拉里遭到过批评家的指责。她曾经被右翼和一些左翼分子画成漫画嘲讽过。她曾经被扣上了所有你们能想象的到的罪名——其中甚至有一些你们连想也想不到。但是她知道在显微镜下生活四十年意味着什么。”
