Thank you, New Hampshire.
15
I love you back.
16
Thank you.
17
Thank you.
18
Well, thank you so much.
19
I am still fired up and ready to go.
20
Thank you.
21
Thank you.
22
Well, first of all, I want to congratulate Senator Clinton on a hard-fought victory here in New Hampshire.
23
She did an outstanding job.
24
Give her a big round of applause.
25
A few weeks ago, no one imagined that we'd have accomplished what we did here tonight in New Hampshire.
26
No one could have imagined it.
27
For most of this campaign, we were far behind.
28
We always knew our climb would be steep.
29
But in record numbers, you came out and you spoke up for change.
30
And with your voices and your votes, you made it clear that at this moment,
31
in this election, there is something happening in America.
32
There is something happening when men and women in Des Moines and Davenport, in Lebanon and Concord, come out in the snows of January to wait in lines
33
that stretch block after block because they believe in what this country can be.
34
There is something happening.
35
There is something happening when Americans who are young in age and in spirit, who have never participated in politics before,
36
turn out in numbers we have never seen, because they know in their hearts that this time must be different.
37
There's something happening when people vote not just for party that they belong to, but the votes, the hopes that they hold in common.
38
that whether we are rich or poor, black or white, Latino or Asian, whether we hail from Iowa or New Hampshire,
39
Nevada or South Carolina, we are ready to take this country in a fundamentally new direction.
40
That's what's happening in America right now.
41
Change is what's happening in America.
42
We want change!
43
We want change!
44
You, all of you who are here tonight, all who put so much heart and soul and work into this campaign,
45
You can be the new majority who can lead this nation out of a long political darkness.
46
Democrats, independents, and Republicans who are tired of the division and distraction that has clouded Washington.
47
Who know that we can disagree without being disagreeable.
48
Who understand that if we mobilize our voices to challenge the money
49
and influence an influence that stood in our way and challenged ourselves to reach for something better.
50
There is no problem we cannot solve.
51
There is no destiny that we cannot fulfill.
52
Our new American majority can end the outrage of unaffordable, unavailable health care in our time.
53
We can bring doctors and patients,
54
workers and businesses, Democrats and Republicans together, and we can tell the drug and insurance industry that while they get a seat at the table,
55
they don't get to buy every chair.
56
Not this time.
57
Not now.
58
Our new majority can end the tax breaks for corporations
59
that ship our jobs overseas and put a middle-class tax cut in the pockets of working Americans who deserve it.
60
We can stop sending our children to schools with corridors of shame and start putting them on a pathway to success.
61
We can stop talking about how great teachers are
62
and start rewarding them for their greatness by giving them more pay and more support.
63
We can do this with our new majority.
64
We can harness the ingenuity of farmers and scientists,
65
citizens and entrepreneurs to to free this nation from the tyranny of oil
66
and save our planet from a point of no return.
67
And when I am President of the United States, we will end this war in Iraq and bring our troops home.
68
Obama!
69
Obama!
70
Obama!
71
Obama!
72
Obama!
73
We will end this war in Iraq.
74
We will bring our troops home.
75
We will finish the job against al Qaeda in Afghanistan.
76
We will care for our veterans.
77
We will restore our moral standing in the world.
78
And we will never use 9-11 as a way to scare up votes, because it is not a tactic to win an election.
79
It is a challenge that should unite America and the world against the common threats of the 21st century.
80
Terrorism and nuclear weapons, climate change and poverty, genocide and disease.
81
All of the candidates in this race share these goals.
82
All of the candidates in this race have good ideas.
83
And all are patriots who serve this country honorably.
84
But the reason our campaign has always been different,
85
the reason we began this improbable journey almost a year ago,
86
is because it's not just about what I will do as president.
87
It is also about what you, the people who love this country,
88
the citizens of the United States of America can do to change it.
89
That's what this election is all about.
90
That's why tonight belongs to you.
91
It belongs to the organizers and the volunteers
92
and the staff who believed in this journey and rallied so many others to join the cause.
93
We know the battle ahead will be long.
94
But always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way,
95
nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.
96
We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics.
97
And they will only grow louder and more dissonant in the weeks and months to come.
98
We've been asked to pause for a reality check.
99
We've been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.
100
But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.
101
For when we have faced down impossible odds, When we've been told we're not ready, or that we shouldn't try,
102
or that we can't, generations of Americans have responded with a simple creed that sums up the spirit of a people.
103
Yes, we can.
104
Yes, we can.
105
Yes, we can.
106
Yes, we can.
107
Yes, we can.
108
Yes, we can!
109
Yes, we can!
110
It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.
111
Yes, we can.
112
It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail towards freedom through the darkest of nights.
113
Yes, we can.
114
It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.
115
Yes, we can.
116
It was the call of workers who organized, women who reached for the ballot, a President who chose the moon as our new frontier,
117
and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the promised land.
118
Yes, we can to justice and equality.
119
Yes, we can!
120
Yes, we can!
121
Yes, we can!
122
Yes, we can!
123
Yes, we can!
124
Yes, we can to opportunity and prosperity.
125
Yes, we can heal this nation.
126
Yes, we can repair this world.
127
Yes, we can.
128
And so tomorrow, as we take the campaign south and west, as we learn that the struggles of the textile workers in Spartanburg
129
are not so different than the plight of the dishwasher in Las Vegas, that the hopes of the little girl who goes to the crumbling school in Dillon
130
are the same as the dreams the boy who learns on the streets of L.A.
131
We will remember that there is something happening in America, that we are not as divided as our politics suggest, that we are one people,
132
we are one nation, and together we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words
133
that will ring from coast to coast, from sea to shining sea.
134
Yes, we can.
135
Thank you, New Hampshire.
136
Thank you.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
