Our constitutional democracy enshrines the peaceful transfer of power and we don’t just respect that， we cherish it。 It also enshrines other things; the rule of law， the principle that we are all equal in rights and dignity， freedom of worship and expression。 We respect and cherish these values too and we must defend them.
我们的宪政民主制度要求：权力交接必须和平进行。我们尊重并且珍视这样的规定。此外，该制度还规定了法治，规定了人人享有平等权利和尊严的原则，规定了宗教自由和表达自由。我们也同样尊重并珍视这些价值观，而且我们必须要捍卫它们。
Now — and let me add， our constitutional democracy demands our participation， not just every four years but all the time。 So let’s do all we can to keep advancing the causes and values we all hold dear; making our economy work for everyone not just those at the top， protecting our country and protecting our planet and breaking down all the barriers that hold any American back from achieving their dreams.
不仅如此，宪政制度要求我们参与其中，不仅仅是四年一次的参与，而是要始终如一的参与。因此，让我们继续共同努力：为我们所珍视的事业和价值观不懈奋斗；让每个人、而不仅仅是上层人士，都能从经济发展中受益；保护我们的国家和地球；并破除一切阻碍我们实现美国梦的障碍。
