Dear volunteers, tiger moms & lion dads of Orange County, Honorable guests Senator Bob Huff, Mrs. Mei Mei He, Senate Candidate Mr. Peter Kuo, Assemblywoman candidate Ms. Ling-Ling Chang, Lieutenant Governor candidate Mr. George Yang, Welcome to Irvine!
We invite you to join us tonight to celebrate the founding of The Orange Club, and to witness our gratitude to your standing up for us, to your rallying with us, to helping us in the fight against SCA5, and more importantly to witness our enthusiasm to participate in the American political process!
We invite you to a new beginning where we will take an active stand for our core interests. We will stand up for our core values that teach us to work hard - to never give up - for ourselves, our families, and most importantly, our future. We are going to take back control of our own destiny!
It is a new beginning where we will start fulfilling our duties to this great country in the world, and to the greatest state in this country, as voters and citizens, as catalyst of positive changes, as the forces to help achieve social fairness and justice, and as the creators, not just the beneficiaries, of opportunities!
As your supporters, we ask that you stand up to your consciousness when called upon, stand by the values you believe in, and never give in nor give up! Let's work together, let's stand by each other, let's make this great state of California a better place to live, and get educated! Thank you, and welcome again!

我首先要感謝各組義工美媽帥爸們,你們是當之無愧的南加華人的驕傲,你們才是捍衛華裔利益的英雄!其次要感謝Bob Huff參議員和夫人何美湄女士在這次反SCA5的運動中,真誠地為華裔的核心利益,仗義執言、奔走呼號、出謀劃策!也要感謝各位候選人在反SCA5的運動中堅決地和我們華裔站在一起!
我們為什麽要支持這幾位候選人?
第一,是為了打破加州民主黨的一黨獨大;
第二,也是更重要的,是因為他們是我們華裔真正的子弟兵,真正的嫡係部隊!They are our own troops!
熟悉中國近現代史的人們都還記得,當年中國革命的先驅孫中山先生,革命初期被各地的軍閥利用和拋棄,從而痛下決心,創建了黃埔軍校,中國的國民革命從此走上蓬勃發展的道路。
曆史何其相似!我們在加州的華人,在經曆了SCA5這樣的被出賣之後,痛感沒有真正屬於我們自己的政治力量,南北呼應,開始了建立和扶持能忠誠捍衛我華裔核心利益的政治家的新曆程!我們今天要支持的候選人,就是咱們華裔的黃埔一期生,我們華裔自己的“槍杆子”!
雖然他們今後的從政道路會充滿了艱難和困苦,但我們橙縣乃至全加州的華人,是你們堅強的後盾!我們希望你們在今後的從政道路上越走越遠,越走越成功!希望你們在堅定捍衛我華裔利益的同時,自信地弘揚我華裔的核心價值觀,成為推動美國社會進步的主力軍!
最後,我想特別感謝橙縣美媽義工們,你們撐起了橙縣乃至南加反SCA5的大半片天空!你們的執著,是激勵我們繼續前進的動力!你們的功勳,將永載美國華人參政的史冊!謝謝大家!
