　　Fighting for a Brighter Future for Women

　　When I was asked what it means to be a woman running for president, I always gave the

　　same answer that I was proud to be running as a woman, but I was running because I

　　thought I'd be the best president.

　　But I am a woman and, like millions of women I know there are still barriers and biases

　　(偏见) out there, often unconscious, and I want to build an America that respects and

　　embraces the potential of every last one of us.

　　I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as

　　a mother who worried about my daughter's future and a mother who wants to leave all

　　children brighter tomorrows.

　　To build that future I see, we must make sure that women and men alike understand the

　　struggles of their grandmothers and their mothers, and that women enjoy equal

　　opportunities, equal pay, and equal respect.

　　Let us resolve and work toward achieving very simple propositions (命题) : There are no

　　acceptable limits, and there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21st century in our country.

　　You can also be so proud that, from now on, it will be unremarkable for a woman to win

　　primary state victories, unremarkable to have a woman in a close race to be our nominee (

　　被提名者), unremarkable to think that a woman can be the president of the United States.

　　And this is truly remarkable, my friends.

　　To those who are disappointed that we couldn't go all of the way, especially the young

　　people who put so much into this campaign, it would break my heart if, in failing short of

　　my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours.

　　Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. And, when you

　　stumble (犯错), keep faith. And, when you're knocked down, get fight back up and never

　　listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on.

　　As we gather here today in this historic, magnificent building, the 50th woman to leave the

　　Earth is orbiting (绕轨道运行) overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will

　　someday launch a woman into the White House.
