美国公民们:
按照美国政府的惯例以及美国宪法的规定,总统要在进入行政部门前宣读誓言,我要在你们的面前作一次简短的就职演说。
我认为,现在来谈论一些令人担忧的行政事务是没有必要的。
南方各州的人民都存在这样的担忧:一旦共和党执政,他们的财产、和平、个人安全就将受到威胁。
这样的担心是毫无根据和意义的。
事实上,摆在他们面前的是众多与之对立的证据,而且这些证据可随时接受查证。
自第一任总统依宪法就职以来,已经有72年了。
在这期间,已经有15位十分杰出的公民担任政府首脑。
他们都是在充满艰难险阻的环境下履行了自己的职责,并大都取得了成功。
现在,我接受了同样的使命,而我也很明白,宪法规定的四年任期虽然短暂,但我所肩负的任务却异常艰巨。
在这以前,联邦分裂只是威胁,但现在已经成为可怕的蓄谋行为。
