当地时间7月25日晚，美国第一夫人米歇尔·奥巴马出席了在费城举行的2024年美国民主党全国代表大会并发表演讲，为选民描绘了在希拉里当政下孩子将拥有的美好未来以及特朗普当政下的破碎未来。米歇尔点燃了现场的热情。米歇尔还赞扬希拉里，称她有个性，有气质，有经历。她还说，有了希拉里，以后我们的子女将理所当然地认为，女人也是可以当美国总统的。

Thank you all, thank you so much. It is hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president.

谢谢大家，非常感谢。我第一次在这个大会发言时，说的是为什么我的丈夫将成为总统，很难相信，这已是八年前的事了。

Remember how I told you about his character and his conviction? His decency and grace? The traits we have seen every day as he has served our country in the White House.

还记得我夸他的人格和信仰吗？我说他正派、优雅，现在我们每天都看他在白宫为国尽瘁。

I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world, and during our time in the White House we have had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women.

我还说到我们的女儿，我们的心肝宝贝，我们世界的中心。我们在白宫的日子中，看着她们从活泼的小女孩长成亭亭的大姑娘。

A journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington when they set off for their first day at their new school. I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls, just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those men with guns. And with all their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, 'What have we done?'

我们住进白宫后，她们在新学校开始了新的旅程。我不会忘记那个冬天的早晨，我看着我们的女儿，一个7岁，一个10岁，被塞进黑色的SUV，护送的人荷枪实弹。她们的小脸蛋贴在窗户上，我心里想得是“我们到底做了些什么？”

At that moment, I realized that our time in the White House would form the foundation of who they would become. And how well we manage this experience could truly make or break them.

那一刻，我意识到我们在白宫的岁月将成为她们未来人生的基石。我们怎样应对这种经历，会成就她们，也会毁掉她们。

That is what Barack and I think about every day as he tried to guide and protect our girls from the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight. How we urged them to ignore those who question their father's citizenship or faith.

这也是为什么奥巴马和我每天都在想这件事，他努力引导她们应对并尽量让她们避免聚光灯下的不凡生活所带来的挑战，我们督促她们不要在意那些对父亲的公民权或信仰的质疑。

How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country. How we explain that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don't stoop to their level. Our motto is, when they go low, we go high.

我们坚决地告诉她们公众人物在电视上充满仇恨的语言不代表这个国家的真精神。我们解释说，有人残酷无情、盛气凌人，你不能和他们在一个水平上。我们的格言是，他们没品味，我们有格调。

With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us. We as parents are the most important role-model.

我们说每句话，做每件事，知道孩子们都在看着。作为父母，我们是最重要的榜样。

Let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter, not just to our girls but the children across this country. Kids who say, "I saw you on TV."

我来告诉大家，奥巴马和我作为总统和第一夫人也用同样的方式工作，因为我们知道我们的言行之重，不仅对女儿而言如此，对全国的孩子也是一样。孩子们说：“我在电视上看到你了”。

Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope, and he wondered, 'Is my hair like yours?' Make no mistake about it, this November, when we get to the polls, that is what we are deciding. Not Democrat or Republican, not left or right. In this election, and every election, it is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives.

小黑孩儿仰望着我的丈夫，双眼张大，充满希望，他想知道：“我的头发和你的一样吗？”别弄错，今年11月，当我们投票时，这才是我们要决定的——不是民主党或共和党，也并非左翼、右翼。这一次选举以及每一次选举，都关乎我们将运用这种权力在下一个四年或八年中塑造我们的孩子。

I am you tonight because in this election, there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility, only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend Hillary Clinton.

今晚我就是你们大家中的一员，因为这次大选中，我只信任一个人，我认为只有她有资格成为美国总统，那就是我们的朋友希拉里·克林顿。

I trust Hillary to lead this country because I have seen her lifelong devotion to our nation's children. Not just her own daughter, who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion: kids who take the long way to school to avoid the gangs. Kids who wonder how they will ever afford college. Kids whose parents don't speak a word of English, but dream of a better life; who look to us to dream of what they can be.

我信任由希拉里领导这个国家，因为我看她一生奉献给我们国家的孩子。她自己的女儿，抚养出类拔萃，不仅如此，所有孩子都需要支持：那些上学路远却要远离坏人的孩子；想上得起大学的孩子；那些不会说英语却梦想着更好生活的孩子；指望着我们来拥有梦想的孩子。

Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless work to actually make a difference in their lives. Advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer, fighting for children's health care as first lady, and for quality child care in the senate.

几十年来，希拉里不懈努力，让他们的生活得到改善。年轻时作为律师，她为有残疾的孩子出头，做第一夫人时为孩子们的健康呼走，做参议员时主张更好关爱孩子。

And when she did not win the nomination eight years ago, she did not get angry or disillusioned. Hillary did not pack up and go home because ... Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own disappointment.

八年前没有获得提名，她没有发怒，也没有幻灭。希拉里没有收拾包袱打道回府，因为她知道有一件事比她自己的失望之情更加重要。

She proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe.

她挺身而出，以国务卿的身份再次为我们国家服务，走遍全球，保障我们的孩子安全。

There were moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being [torn] apart for how she looked, or how she talked, or even how she laughed.

很多时候，希拉里本该知道这个工作太艰难，公共服务的代价太高，自己的形象、说话方式甚至笑的方式都引发争吵，这让她疲惫不堪。

But here's the thing: What I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure. She never takes the easy way out. And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life.

可事实上，我最敬佩希拉里的地方在于她从未屈服于压力，也从不取巧，在生活中从不退缩。

And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that is what I want. I want someone with the proven strength to persevere. Somebody who knows this job and takes it seriously. Somebody who understands that the issues of our nation are not black or white. It cannot be boiled down to 140 characters.

想想我的女儿们和所有我们的孩子，她就是我想要的总统。我需要那个被证明不屈不挠的人；那个知道该怎么做，并认真去做的人；那个了解我们的国家事务而不是主张非黑即白的人。国家大事不是写一条140字的推文就能解决的。

Because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military in your command, you can't make snap decisions. You can't have thin skin or a tendency to lash out. You need to be steady and measured and well informed.

因为你指尖上有核发射密码，军队听你指挥，你不能一拍脑袋就做出决定。你不能面子薄，也不能只会批判。你需要稳健、有节、见多识广。

I want a president with a record of public service. Someone whose life's work shows our children that we don't chase fame and fortune for ourselves; we fight to give everyone a chance to succeed.

我们需要一个有公共服务经历的总统，其工作向我们的孩子表明，我们不因自己而追名逐利，我们的奋斗让每个人都有机会成功。

A president that truly believes that our founders put forth all those years ago that we are all created equal, each a beloved part of the great American story. When crisis hits, we don't turn against each other, we listen to each other. We lean on each other. We are always stronger together.

我们需要的总统是真心相信我们的国父在多年前提出的准则，即所有人生来平等，每个人都是伟大美国故事中最可爱的部分。危机来临，我们不相互攻讦，我们彼此倾听，我们互相学习，我们在一起总会更加强大。

I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president Hillary Clinton will be and that is why in this election, I'm with her.

今晚我站在这里，因为我知道希拉里总统就是这样的。正因为如此，在这次大选中，我支持她。

You see, Hillary understands that the presidency is about one thing and one thing only. It is about leaving something better for our kids. That is how we have always moved this country forward by all of us coming together on behalf of our children.

你瞧，希拉里明白当总统该干的事，且只该干这件事，那就是给我们的孩子留下更美好的遗产。我们就是这样以孩子的名义，共同推动着国家的进步。

Volunteering to coach the team, teach the Sunday school class, because they know it takes a village. Heroes of every color and creed who wear the uniform and risk their lives to pass on those blessings of liberty; police officers and protesters in Dallas who all that really want to keep our children safe; people who lined up in Orlando to donate blood because it could have been their son, or their daughter in the club.

志愿训练队伍，在主日学校教书，因为他们知道这值得花功夫。无论肤色和信仰，穿制服的英雄们冒着生命危险将这些自由的祝福传递下去。达拉斯的警员和抗议者真心希望保护我们孩子们的安全。那些在奥兰多献血的人排起长队，因为那也可能是他们的儿子或女儿。

Leaders like Tim Kaine, who show our kids what decency and devotion look like. Leaders like Hillary Clinton, who have the guts and the grace to keep coming back and putting those cracks in the highest and hardest glass ceiling until they finally break through, lifting all of us along with her.

像蒂姆·凯恩这样的领导人，让我们的孩子们知道什么是正直与奉献；像希拉里这样的领导人，有勇气、有雅量再次归来，打碎最高、最艰难的天花板，直到最终取得突破，让所有人都和她一起提升。

That is the story of this country. The story that has brought me to the stage tonight. The story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, who kept on striving, and hoping, and doing what needed to be done.

这才是我们国家的故事，这个故事今晚把我带上讲台。这是一代代人的故事，他们曾遭受绳索的捆扎、为奴的耻辱、受隔离的伤痛，他们却不断奋斗，充满希望，完成使命。

So that today, I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves. And I watch my daughters a?? two beautiful intelligent black young women a?? play with the dog on the White House lawn.

如今，我每天早上都从一所奴隶修建的房屋中醒来，我看着我的女儿，两个漂亮聪慧的黑人姑娘在白宫草坪上逗狗。

And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all of our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States.

因为希拉里，我的女儿和所有人的儿女们现在都理所当然地认为一个女人可以做合众国总统。

Don't let anyone ever tell you that this country is not great. That somehow we need to make it great again. Because this right now is the greatest country on Earth.

别让人对你说这个国家不再伟大了，现在我们需要想办法让她再次伟大，因为现在她就是地球上最伟大的国家。

And as my daughters set out on the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth, a leader worthy of my girls' promise and all of our kids' promise. A leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children.

我的女儿们开始闯世界了，我需要一个配得上这一事实的领袖，配得上我对女儿的承诺和都所有孩子们承诺的领袖。这个领袖每天被爱和希望引领，被我们为孩子们设想的难以置信的伟大梦想所引领。

In this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best, we cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical. Hear me: Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago.

这次大选，我们不能无所作为，希望一切都会完美，我们经受不起倦怠、泄气或玩世不恭。听我说：从现在到11月，我们要像八年前和四年前一样振作。

We need to knock on every door, we need to get out every vote, we need to pour every last ounce of passion into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America. Let's get to work.

我们需要挨家挨户地敲门，我们需要获得每一张选票，我们需要把最后一分热情注入选举希拉里·克林顿为美利坚合众国总统的事业中来。让我们开始行动吧。

Thank you all and God bless.

谢谢，上帝保佑。

那一刻，我意识到我们在白宫的岁月将成为她们未来人生的基石。我们怎样应对这种经历，会成就她们，也会毁掉她们。

That is what Barack and I think about every day as he tried to guide and protect our girls from the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight. How we urged them to ignore those who question their father's citizenship or faith.

这也是为什么奥巴马和我每天都在想这件事，他努力引导她们应对并尽量让她们避免聚光灯下的不凡生活所带来的挑战，我们督促她们不要在意那些对父亲的公民权或信仰的质疑。

How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country. How we explain that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don't stoop to their level. Our motto is, when they go low, we go high.

我来告诉大家，奥巴马和我作为总统和第一夫人也用同样的方式工作，因为我们知道我们的言行之重，不仅对女儿而言如此，对全国的孩子也是一样。孩子们说：“我在电视上看到你了”。

Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope, and he wondered, 'Is my hair like yours?' Make no mistake about it, this November, when we get to the polls, that is what we are deciding. Not Democrat or Republican, not left or right.

Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless work to actually make a difference in their lives. Advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer, fighting for children's health care as first lady, and for quality child care in the senate.

几十年来，希拉里不懈努力，让他们的生活得到改善。年轻时作为律师，她为有残疾的孩子出头，做第一夫人时为孩子们的健康呼走，做参议员时主张更好关爱孩子。

A president that truly believes that our founders put forth all those years ago that we are all created equal, each a beloved part of the great American story. When crisis hits, we don't turn against each other, we listen to each other. We lean on each other. We are always stronger together.

这才是我们国家的故事，这个故事今晚把我带上讲台。这是一代代人的故事，他们曾遭受绳索的捆扎、为奴的耻辱、受隔离的伤痛，他们却不断奋斗，充满希望，完成使命。

So that today, I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves. And I watch my daughters a?? two beautiful intelligent black young women a?? play with the dog on the White House lawn.

别让人对你说这个国家不再伟大了，现在我们需要想办法让她再次伟大，因为现在她就是地球上最伟大的国家。

And as my daughters set out on the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth, a leader worthy of my girls' promise and all of our kids' promise. A leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children.

我的女儿们开始闯世界了，我需要一个配得上这一事实的领袖，配得上我对女儿的承诺和都所有孩子们承诺的领袖。这个领袖每天被爱和希望引领，被我们为孩子们设想的难以置信的伟大梦想所引领。

In this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best, we cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical. Hear me: Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago.
