We all made this journey for a reason. Its humbling to see acrowd like this， but in my heart I know you didnt just come herefor me. You came here because you believe in what this country canbe. In the face of war， you believe there can be peace. In the face ofdespair， you believe there can be hope. In the face of a politics that总统演讲练语调超级绕口令/SU/shut you out， thats told you to settle， thats divided us for too long，you believe that we can be one people， reaching for whats possible，building that more perfect union.
我们此行都为了一个目的。我感谢大家的热诚，在我心里，我知道你们并非仅仅为我而来，你们此行的原因更在于你们相信这个国家的未来。面对战争，你们相信和平将至。面对绝望，你们相信希望尚存。政治将你们拒之门外，让你们安于现状，长期彼此分隔，但你们相信我们作为一个民族，能够实现可能实现的一切，打造一个更加完美的联邦。
Thats the journey were on today. But let me tell you how Icame to be here. As most of you know， I am not a native of thisgreat state. I moved to Illinois over two decades ago. I was a youngman then， just a year out of college. I knew no one in Chicago whenI arrived， was without money or family connections. But a groupof churches had offered me a job as a community organizer for thegrand sum of $13，000 a year. And I accepted the job， sight unseen，motivated then by a single， simple， powerful idea-that I might play asmall part in building a better America.
这就是今天我们此行的目的。我告诉你们我是如何来到这里的。你们大多数人都知道，我并不是伟大的伊利诺伊州土生土长的公民，我是在20 多年前搬到这里的。那时的我还是个年轻人，刚从大学毕业一年；在芝加哥，我身无分文，举目无亲。但有几个教堂为我提供了一份社区组织者的工作，年薪1.3 万美元。我毫不犹豫地接受了这份工作，因为我的心一直被一个简单且有力的想法激励着——我可以为建设一个更加美好的美国尽一份绵薄之力。

Thats the spirit that led a band of patriots， not much older thanmost of you， to take on an empire and to start this experiment indemocracy we call America. Its what drove young pioneers westto Arizona and beyond. Its what drove young women to reachfor the ballot， what inspired a 30-year-old escaped slave to run anunderground railroad to freedom. Its what inspired a young mannamed Cesar to go out and help farm workers， what inspired a26-year-old preacher to lead a bus boycott for justice. Its what ledfirefighters and police officers in the prime of their lives up the stairsof those burning towers and young people across this country to dropwhat they were doing and come to the aid of a flooded New Orleans.
