「発音は『特別なスキル』だから小学校では敢えて教える必要はない、
カタカナ英語でもゲーム等で英語に親しみさえすれば十分だ」
これが横浜市教育委員会の公式見解です。
んなら、partner の t が聞こえへんのはなんでや？
どない発音すんねん？
To my campaign manager David Plouffe, the unsung hero of this campaign, who built the best, the best political campaign I think in the history of the United States of America. To my chief strategist David Axelrod, who has been a partner with me every step of the way, to the best campaign team ever assembled in the history of politics ― you made this happen, and I am forever grateful for what you have sacrificed to get it done.
And I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16 years, the rock of our family, the love of my life, the nation's next first lady, Michelle Obama. Sasha and Malia, I love you both more than you can imagine, and you have earned the new puppy that's coming with us to the White House. And while she's no longer with us, I know my grandmother's watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight. I know that my debt to them is beyond measure. To my sister Maya, my sister Auma, all my other sisters and brothers, thank you so much for all the support that you have given me. I am grateful to them.
I want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaigned from his heart
and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of Scranton and rode with
on the train home to Delaware, the vice-president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.
A little earlier this evening I received an extraordinarily gracious call from Senator McCain.
Senator MacCain fought long and hard in this campaign, and he's fought even longer and harder
for the country that he loves. He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot
begin to imagine. We are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader.
I congratulate him, I congratulate Governor Palin for all that they have achieved, and I look
forward to working with them to renew this nation's promise in the months ahead.
