Remarks of President Barack ObamaAs Prepared for DeliveryAugust 14, 2010Washington, DC Seventy-five years ago today, in the midst of the Great Depression, Franklin Roosevelt signed Social Security into law, laying a cornerstone（基础，柱石） in the foundation of America’s middle class, and assuring generations of America’s seniors that after a lifetime of hard wo...
President Trump: Thank you. During the campaign, I traveled the nation and visited the cities and towns devastated by unfair trade policies, probably one of the major reasons I'm here today – trade. Nobody has ever made bad trade deals like our country has made. I saw the shuttered factories and spent time with the laid-off factory workers. I heard their stories, a...
Hey! What's going on? Thank you all so much. You guys, that's a command — rest yourselves. We're almost at the end. 嘿！你们怎么啦？非常感谢你们！伙计们，我命令你们休息一下。我们就快要结束了。 Hello, everyone. And, may I say for the last time officially, welcome to the White House. 大家好，请允许我最后一次官方地说，欢迎来到白宫。 Yes! Well, we are beyond th...
Remarks of President Barack ObamaWeekly AddressThe White HouseNovember 20, 2010 Today, I’d like to speak with you about an issue that is fundamental to America’s national security: the need for the Senate to approve the New START Treaty this year. This Treaty is rooted in a practice that dates back to（追溯到） Ronald Reagan. The idea is simple – as the two...
Hello, everybody. One of America's greatest strengths is our free market. A thriving private sector is the lifeblood of our economy-it's how we create jobs, expand opportunities, and give everybody a shot at success. It's what has made America the strongest country on Earth. The most essential ingredient in a healthy free market is competition. But right now, too...
So you’ve got an obligation to yourselves, and America has an obligation to you, to make sure you’re getting the best education possible. And making sure you get that kind of education is going to take all of us working hard and all of us working hand in hand. It takes all of us in government — from the governor to the mayor to the superintendent to the Pre...
Remarks of President Barack ObamaWeekly AddressThe White HouseJanuary 1, 2011 Hello, everybody. As we close the books on one year and begin another, I wanted to take a moment today to wish you a very Happy New Year and talk a little bit about the year that lies ahead. At the start of 2011, we’re still just emerging from a once-in-a-lifetime recession（衰退，不景气） th...
Hi, everybody. On Tuesday, America went to the polls. And the message you sent was clear: you voted for action, not politics as usual. You elected us to focus on your jobs, not ours. That’s why I’ve invited leaders of both parties to the White House next week, so we can start to build consensus（一致，舆论） around challenges we can only solve together. I also in...
I have no doubt that everyone will find something in this compromise that they don’t like. In fact, there are things in here that I don’t like — namely the extension of the tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and the wealthiest estates. But these tax cuts will expire in two years. And I’m confident that as we make tough choices about bringing our de...
On Friday, I traveled to Ft. Stewart in Georgia to meet with soldiers from the Third Infantry Division. These men and women have fought with bravery and honor in some of the most dangerous places on the planet. Some of them didn’t make it back. But those who did are now fighting a different kind of battle here at home. They’re looking for new jobs, new opportunit...
Hi, everybody.The right to vote is one of the most fundamental rights of any democracy.Yet for too long, too many of our fellow citizens were denied that right, simply because of the color of their skin. Fifty years ago this week, President Lyndon Johnson signed a law to change that.The Voting Rights Act broke down legal barriers that stood between millions of African Americ...
Today, I’d like to speak with you about the ongoing and urgent efforts to avoid a first-ever default and get our fiscal（会计的） house in order. Republicans in the House of Representatives just spent precious days trying to pass a plan that a majority of Republicans and Democrats in the Senate had already said they wouldn’t vote for. It’s a plan that would...
For any parent, being told that your child may have a life-limiting condition, or may die young, will be one of the most difficult and isolating experiences you can face. Having someone to help you come to terms with this news, and the professional support and care that comes with this, can make an enormous difference. It can help families make the most of every precious mom...
Hello, everybody. I’m speaking to you this week from the Boeing Plant in Everett, Washington. Boeing has been in this community for half a century. But it’s what they’re doing here today that has folks really excited; because at this plant they’re building the plane of the future – the Dreamliner. It’s an impressive sight. And, to be hones...
Today, I’m speaking to you from Indonesia as I finish up my trip to the Asia Pacific – the region where we do most of our trade and sell most of our exports. And over the past week, the progress we’ve made in opening markets and boosting exports here will help create more jobs and more growth in the United States. Here in Indonesia, I was proud to join lead...
Hi, everybody. It’s our job as citizens to make sure we keep pushing this country we love toward our most cherished ideals-that all of us are created equal, and all of us deserve an equal shot. This week, my Administration took new steps to bring us closer to that goal. Almost 50 years ago, Republicans and Democrats in Congress came together to pass the Fair Housing Ac...
THE PRESIDENT: Good evening, everybody. I’m going to just have a few quick remarks. We just had a productive meeting with Speaker Boehner, as well as Majority Leader Reid. We discussed the impasse（僵局，死路） that we’re currently at with respect to the budget, and I thought the meetings were frank, they were constructive, and what they did was narrow the issues...
THE PRESIDENT: Hello, hello! Hello, Schenectady! (Applause.) It is good to be in New York. (Applause.) Now let me just begin, if I’m not mistaken, Governor Cuomo — who is going to be an outstanding governor — (applause) — he tried to give me a Jets hat. (Laughter.) I had to refuse it. I had Secret Service confiscate（没收，充公） it. (Laughter.) But I...
See whatever you are doing, however you spend your time that tells who you are. 无论你现在正做什么事情，怎么使用你的时间决定了你是怎样的人。 So think about what it is you like to create your life experience. 仔细思考你所想创造的生活。 Once I look at how you commit your time, once I do an evaluation on how you spend your time, I can tell you exactly what you’re committe...
Hi, everybody. One of the most urgent challenges of our time is climate change. We know that 2015 surpassed 2014 as the warmest year on record – and 2016 is on pace to be even hotter. When I took office, I said this was something we couldn't kick down the road any longer -that our children's future depended on our action. So we got to work, and over the past se...
