《中英對照讀新聞》Jeb Bush noting difference with former president brother 傑伯.布希強調與前總統老哥的差異
◎張沛元
Republican White House prospect Jeb Bush says his views about America’s place in the world will often be compared to those of his father and brother, both former presidents, but plans to tell an audience Wednesday, "I am my own man."
最有可能成為共和黨總統候選人的傑伯.布希說,他對美國的世界地位之看法,將會常被拿來跟皆為前總統的哥哥爸爸做比較,但他打算在週三告訴聽眾,「我自己作主」。
While Bush has not yet formally declared his candidacy, the former Florida governor is all but certain to run for president in 2016 and has already faced questions about how he would distinguish himself from his family, particularly his older brother, former President George W. Bush.
傑伯.布希尚未正式宣布參選,但這位佛羅里達州前任州長幾乎篤定會投身2016年總統大選,也已經開始面對關於他如何與他的親人,特別是他的老哥前總統布希區隔的問題。
"I recognize that as a result, my views will often be held up in comparison to theirs’—sometimes in contrast to theirs’," Bush plans to say.
「我知道,因此我的觀點將經常被拿來跟他們(指當過總統的父兄)的觀點來做比較——有時拿來做對比,」傑伯打算這麼說。
"But I am my own man—and my views are shaped by my own thinking and own experiences," he says. (AP)
「但我自己作主——我的觀點形塑於我自己的想法與自己的經驗。」(美聯社)
