"My door is open but irrespective of whether or not any Republicans , and I do think there will be , I am going to move forward anyway,".

VOA: standard.2009.09.10

And it just gonna be... I really look forward to having someone who I can keep speaking to, keep learning from, and keep sharing my ideas with, and keep having that open, just an open door.

将会是，我非常期待,能够有一个像他这样可以一直聊天，一直学习，分享我们的看法，一直可以对他敞开心门。
