Of course,if there's one thing this new century has taught us, it's that we cannot separate our work here at home from challenges beyond our shores.
当然,如果说新的世纪教会了我们什么的话,那就是,我们不能将国内事务和国外的挑战孤立开来。
My first duty as Commander-in-Chief is to defend the United States of America. In doing so, the question is not whether America leads in the world, but how. When we make rash decisions, reacting to the headlines instead of using our heads; when the first response to a challenge is to send in our military -- then we risk getting drawn into unnecessary conflicts, and neglect the broader strategy we need for a safer, more prosperous world. That's what our enemies want us to do.
作为总司令,我的首要任务是保卫美利坚合众国。这样做,问题不在于美国是否领导世界,而是如何领导。当我们做出轻率的决定,只是对媒体报道作出反应而没有用脑思考时,当我们对于某个挑战的第一回应是出兵时,我们便会冒险卷入不必要冲突,而忽略维护更安全、更繁荣的世界所需要的整体战略。而这正是我们的敌人希望我们做的。
I believe in a smarter kind of American leadership. We lead best when we combine military power with strong diplomacy; when we leverage our power with coalition building; when we don't let our fears blind us to the opportunities that this new century presents. That's exactly what we're doing right now. And around the globe, it is making a difference.
