奥普拉要竞选总统？2020美国大选或上演电视明星PK赛(5)

The Washington Post quoted Meryl Streep saying that Winfrey "launched a rocket" with the speech.《华盛顿邮报》援引梅丽尔斯特里普的话说，奥普拉的感言相当于“发射了一枚火箭”。
"I want her to run for president," Streep told The Post. "I don't think she had any intention [of declaring]. But now she doesn't have a choice."梅丽尔告诉《华盛顿邮报》说：“我希望她能竞选总统。我认为她无意通过感言来表达参选意愿，但现在她没有选择了。”
至于奥普拉本人，她多年来一直表示自己和政治是不沾边的。
Billionaire businesswoman and talk show host Oprah Winfrey has long insisted that she is apolitical.作为商界亿万富豪、脱口秀主持人的奥普拉温弗瑞长期以来一直坚称自己对政治不感兴趣。
"I don't consider myself political, and I seldom interview politicians," she said during a 2008 interview with then-presidential candidate Barack Obama.2008年，她在采访当时的总统候选人奥巴马时说：“我觉得自己是个和政治无关的人，而且也很少采访政界人士。”
During a 2008 rally for the candidate, Winfrey said she was "not here for partisan beliefs" and that over the years, she'd voted for as many Republicans as she had Democrats.在2008年奥巴马的拉票会上，奥普拉表示，她“来这里不是出于党派信仰”，而且过去这些年，她投票的共和党人和民主党人一样多。
