조지 W 부시 전 대통령은 일요일 미셸 오바마 전 대통령과의 공개적인 교제에 대한 국민들의 반응에 충격을 받았다고 말했습니다.

Former President George W. Bush said Sunday he was "shocked" by people's reaction to his public interactions with former first lady Michelle Obama as he reflected on the pair's across-the-aisle friendship.

 


스미스소니언 국립 아프리카 미국역사문화박물관의 개관식에서 두 사람이 포옹했던 기억과 고 센의원에서의 상호작용을 회상합니다. 

부시는 존 매케인의 2018년 장례식에서 그녀에게 알토이드를 선물했다고 말했고, 그는 사람들의 반응에 충격을 받았다고 말했습니다.

Recalling the memorable moment of the two embracing at the opening of the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture and their interaction at the late Sen. John McCain's 2018 funeral where he gave her an Altoid, Bush said he was shocked by how people reacted.


부시 대통령은 CBS 선데이모닝 인터뷰에서 "미국 국민들은 미셸 오바마와 내가 친구가 될 수 있다는 사실에 너무 놀랐다"며 "미국인들은 조지 W. 부시와 미셸 오바마가 친구가 되는 것을 상상할 수 없을 정도로 양극화돼 있다"고 말했습니다.

"The American people were so surprised that Michelle Obama and I could be friends," Bush said in an interview on CBS Sunday Morning."  

"Americans are so polarized in their thinking that they can't imagine a George W. Bush and a Michelle Obama being friends."

 

 

"그것은 우정입니다,"라고 전 영부인 로라 부시는 덧붙였습니다. 

"It was a friendship," former first lady Laura Bush added. 


인터뷰에서 부시는 의회에 이민에 대한 "가혹한 미사어구"를 완화해 줄 것을 요구하며, 그렇게 하는 것이 이민자들에 대한 "더 존경스러운" 분위기를 조성하고 더 많은 정책 변화를 이끌어내기를 바란다고 덧붙였습니다.

In the interview, Bush called on Congress to tone down the "harsh rhetoric" on immigration adding that he hopes that doing so will "set a tone that is more respectful" of immigrants and lead to more policy change.

 

 

한편 부시 대통령은 "많은 것 중 하나: 미국 이민자들의 초상화"라고 불리는 이민자들의 새로운 책을 발표했습니다. 

이 전 대통령은 이 책이 정책을 바꾸지는 않지만 변화를 향해 나아가려는 사람들 사이에서 작은 목소리라고 덧붙였습니다.

Bush has released a new book of paintings of immigrants called "Out of Many, One: Portraits of America's Immigrants." The former President said the book doesn't change policy but added that his is a "small voice" among people trying to move toward change.

 

 

부시 전 대통령은 이 책의 표지에 "핵심적으로 이민은 자신만만하고 성공적인 국가의 표시입니다. 이민자들의 재능과 근면, 자유에 대한 사랑이 우리를 세계의 리더로 만드는 데 일조했습니다." 라고 언급했습니다.

“At its core, immigration is a sign of a confident and successful nation. Immigrants' talent and hard work and love of freedom have helped us become the leader of the world.”

 

 

부시 전 대통령은 이민 문제는 오늘날 미국 역사의 많은 부분을 차지하고 있기 때문에 격렬한 감정을 자극하고 있습니다.

그러나 정책에 관한 논쟁에서 길을 잃는 것은 이민자들 자신들, 경제적 기회와 정치적, 종교적 자유에 대한 약속으로 미국으로 끌려가는 사람들, 그리고 수없이 많은 방법으로 미국을 강화시키는 사람들의 이야기들입니다.



퇴임 후, 조지 W. 부시 대통령은 미국의 일상적인 영웅들을 기리기 위해 그림 기술을 사용했습니다. 

 

그의 미국의 이민자들에게 스포트라이트를 비추고, 그들의 감동적인 이야기를 통해, 얼마나 열심히 일하며, 강한 가치, 꿈, 그리고 결단력이 국경과 경계를 모르는지를 강조했습니다.

 

트럼프 대통령은 재임 기간동안 백인우월주의를 내세우며 이민자를 홀대했는데 바이든 대통령은 미국 통합을 위해서 가장 시급한 정책 문제들 중 하나인 이면자들이 미국사회게 기여한 공을 인정하고 진정한 인류애를 발휘해야 할 것으로 보입니다,.
