Campaigning

José --

The first time I ever heard Barack speak was at a community meeting on the South Side of Chicago.He won me over with the same message that inspired millions last night.He told people who'd been knocked down that, despite everything, we need to set our sights on a better place around the bend -- and that it's up to each one of us to fight for it.

That's where you come in.More than two million supporters already own a piece of this extraordinary campaign. Will you join them by making your first donation right now? Make a donation of $5 or more today.

Now that the convention is over, time will fly between now and Election Day.

And the next two days are especially important.

The August fundraising deadline is this Sunday at midnight, and we can prove that a campaign funded by grassroots supporters can compete with John McCain and the Republicans.

The past four days in Denver -- and the amazing event last night -- showed the country that Americans are ready for change.Now it's up to each of us to make it happen.

Thanks for everything you're doing,

Michelle
