　　谢谢你们！

　　首席大法官伦奎斯特,卡特总统,布什总统,克林顿总统,尊敬的各位来宾,我的同胞们,权力的和平过渡在历是罕见的,但在美国是平常的。

用一个简单的誓言,我们确认旧传统和新的开始。

　　首先,我要感谢克林顿总统为他的服务我们的国家。

　　也感谢副总统戈尔在竞选过程中的热情与风度。

　　我的荣幸,站在这里,所以很多美国领导人出现在我面前,所以很多人会效仿。

　　我们有一个地方,所有的人,在很长一段故事,一个故事,我们继续,但他们的结局我们不会看到。

的故事,一个新的世界,成为朋友和旧的解放者,蓄奴的故事的社会成为一个自由的仆人,一个力量的故事走进世界保护但不具备保护而不是征服。

　　这是美国的故事——一个有缺陷的和不可靠的人的故事,曼联在代伟和持久的理想。

　　这些理想展开美国最伟大的承诺,每个人都是,每个人都应该得到一个机会,从来没有无关紧要的人诞生了。

　　美国人就是要竭力将这个承诺在我们的生活和我们的法律。

虽然我们的国家有时停滞不前,有时候推迟,我们必须遵循没有其他课程。

　　通过上个世纪的绝大部分时间,美国人对自由和民主的信念犹如汹涌大海中的岩石。

现在是在风中一粒种子,扎根在很多国家。

　　我们的民主信仰不但仅是我们国家的信条,它是我们人类的天生的希望,理想我们携带但不拥有,信任我们承受和传递。

甚至在近225年之后,我们还有很长的路去旅行。

　　虽然我们的很多公民繁荣,别人怀疑的承诺,即使是正义,我们自己的国家。

一些美国人的雄心受到失败的学校教育,潜在的偏见和出身的环境。

有时我们的分歧如此之深,似乎我们共享一个大陆,而不是一个国家。

　　我们不接受这个,我们不会允许它。

我们的团结,我们的联盟,是在每一代领导人和公民的严肃的工作。

这是我庄严

　　承诺：

我将努力建立一个
