Forty-five years ago, we made a solemn（庄严的，严肃的） compact as a nation that senior citizens would not go without the health care they need. This is the promise we made when Medicare was born. And it’s the responsibility of each generation to keep that promise. That’s why a report issued this week by the Trustees who oversee（监督，审查） Medicare was such g...
Hi, everybody. This week, I visited a community college in Florida, where I spoke with students about what we need to do to make sure our economy rewards the hard work of every American. More specifically, I spoke about making sure our economy rewards the hard work of women. Today, women make up about half of our workforce, and more than half of our college graduates. More w...
Remarks of President Barack ObamaAs Prepared for DeliveryThe White HouseOctober 30, 2010 Tuesday is Election Day, and here in Washington, the talk is all about who will win and who will lose – about parties and politics. But around kitchen tables, I’m pretty sure you’re talking about other things: about your family finances, or maybe the state of the econom...
THE PRESIDENT: Good afternoon, everybody. I just concluded a productive discussion with the leaders of both parties in Congress. This was one of a series of regular meetings that I called for in the State of the Union because I think it’s important for us to come together and speak frankly about the challenges we face and to work through areas where we don’t agre...
Hi, everybody. Here in America, we know the free market is the greatest force for economic progress the world has ever known. But we also know the free market works best for everyone when we have smart, commonsense rules in place to prevent irresponsible behavior. That’s why we passed tough reforms to protect consumers and our financial system from the kind of abuse th...
THE PRESIDENT: Merry Christmas, everybody! This is one of our favorite times of the year in the Obama household, filled with family and friends, warmth and good cheer. That’s even true when I spend all night chasing Bo and Sunny away from the cookies we leave for Santa. It’s also my favorite weekly address of the year, because I’m joined by a special holida...
This week, I traveled to Afghanistan—to thank our troops serving far from home, and to sign an historic agreement that will help us complete our mission and end the war. As Commander-in-Chief, nothing is more humbling（令人羞辱的） or inspiring than the chance to spend some time with our troops. At Bagram Air Base, I visited with some of our outstanding men and women i...
Remarks of President Barack ObamaWeekly AddressThe White HouseAugust 28, 2010 On Tuesday, after more than seven years, the United States of America will end its combat mission in Iraq and take an important step forward in responsibly ending the Iraq war. As a candidate for this office, I pledged I would end this war. As President, that is what I am doing. We have brought hom...

October in China is the season of harvest and joy, so I hope the summit will yield fruitful results. I believe the two new partners, Croatia and Kazakhstan, will add fresh vital...
Hi, everybody. Today, our economy is growing and our businesses are consistently generating new jobs. But decades-long trends still threaten the middle class. While those at the top are doing better than ever, too many Americans are working harder than ever, but feel like they can’t get ahead. That’s why the budget I sent Congress earlier this year is built on th...
Hello, everyone. I’m speaking to you today from a Chrysler plant in Toledo, Ohio, where I just met with workers, including Jill. Jill was born and raised here. Her mother and step-father retired from this plant. And she met her husband here, and now they have two children of their own. This plant has not only been central to the economy of this town. It’s been a ...
THE PRESIDENT: Hello, Rockets! (Applause.) Thank you! (Applause.) Thank you, everybody. (Applause.) Everybody, have a seat, have a seat. Have a seat. It is good to be here today! (Applause.) I’m excited! I am thrilled to be here, Rockets. Bonswa. It is good to see all of you. I want to, first of all, thank somebody who I think is going to end up being one of the best E...
TED演讲：是什么造就了长城的无与伦比，好好学习下，下次向外国朋友介绍的长城的话就不会没有话说了。A 13,000 mile dragon of earth and stone winds its way through the countryside of China 一条1万3英里的土石之龙蜿蜒于中国乡野之间， with a history almost as long and serpentine as the structure. 它的历史几乎与其结构一样悠久曲折。 The Great Wall began as multiple walls of rammed earth...
It's been less than a week since the deadliest mass shooting in American history. And foremost in all of our minds has been the loss and the grief felt by the people of Orlando, especially our friends who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender. I visited with the families of many of the victims on Thursday. And one thing I told them is that they're not alone. The...
Chip Reid. Q Thank you, Mr. President. Actually, I’m going to have to get my glasses out to read these — THE PRESIDENT: That’s a bad sign there, Chip. (Laughter.) Q A little fine print — a little fine print in the budget, Mr. President. You said that this budget is not going to add to the credit card as of about the middle of the decade. And as Robert...
Hi everybody. Last summer, I got a letter from a woman named Elizabeth Paredes from Tucson, Arizona. Elizabeth is the mom of a 3-year-old boy, and an assistant manager at a sandwich shop. She earns about 2,000 a month, and she routinely works some 50 hours a week, sometimes even more. But because of outdated overtime regulations, she doesn't have to be paid a dime of ove...
Hi, everybody. I’m speaking to you today from Springfield, Illinois. I spent eight years in the state senate here. It was a place where, for all our surface differences in a state as perse as Illinois, my colleagues and I actually shared a lot in common. We fought for our principles, and voted against each other, but because we assumed the best in one another, not the ...
Next week, the Senate will vote on the American Jobs Act. It’s a bill that will put more people to work and put more money in the pockets of working Americans. And it will provide our economy with the jolt（颠簸，摇晃） that it really needs right now. This is not the time for the usual games or political gridlock in Washington. The challenges facing financial markets a...
Hi, everybody. Restoring the idea of opportunity for all requires a year of action from all of us. Wherever I can act on my own, I will-and whenever I can ask more Americans to help, I’ll do that too. In my State of the Union Address, for example, I asked more business leaders to take action to raise their employees’ wages. Because even though our economy is grow...
