The enclosed
intrigued me. The sheer economic pressures of what Martin Luther King
called “the fierce intensity of now” takes smiles off faces and
puts steel into behaviour. Today I got a request (well nearly, very nearly a demand) for £215 from Barnado’s to identify and rescue a child vulnerable to sexual exploitation.
The latter days
of Obama campaign plus Sandy plus a lot of money concluded the
affair.
Moral: get the
money in….then get them out….get them voting (however
reluctantly)…
Before
the election – “we need your money ….now!”

In a few hours, I'm walking into a budget meeting with the rest of the campaign management team.
By the time we walk out of that room, we'll have decided exactly what kinds of resources we can get to organizers on the ground and which attacks we can beat back in the last three days of this election.
This is seriously your last chance to help decide what that looks like. Your donation will determine which attacks get a response -- and which don't.
According to our records associated with this email address, you haven't chipped in to this campaign yet. So this is it, the very last call. If you care about the outcome of this election, now is the time to show it.
Please give $5 or more, and help while you still can:

Please hear me when I say this is serious, and the decisions we're making are very concrete -- and final.
Give what you can, and let's make sure we win.
Thank you.

After
the election – phew!!!
Friend
–
I'm
about to go speak to the crowd here in Chicago, but I wanted to thank
you first.
I want you to know that this wasn't fate, and it wasn't an accident. You made this happen.
You organized yourselves block by block. You took ownership of this campaign five and ten dollars at a time. And when it wasn't easy, you pressed forward.
I will spend the rest of my presidency honoring your support, and doing what I can to finish what we started.
But I want you to take real pride, as I do, in how we got the chance in the first place.
Today is the clearest proof yet that, against the odds, ordinary Americans can overcome powerful interests.
There's a lot more work to do.
But for right now: Thank you.
Barack
