Earlier tonight, Campaign Manager David Plouffe sent out the following special invitation by email ...
Barack will accept the nomination in less than two weeks, and the pace of this campaign will get faster than ever. Millions of new people will be paying attention, and you can help bring them into our movement at this crucial time. Join the Grassroots Finance Committee (GFC), a core group of dedicated supporters who are setting a personal goal to raise $1,000 each in small-dollar donations. Barack is relying on ordinary people giving only what they can afford to support this movement. Join the GFC and reach out to your network of friends, family, and neighbors and encourage them to make a donation and own a piece of this campaign. Sign up to join the Grassroots Finance Committee today. You don't need to have any prior political experience. This campaign is about ordinary people doing extraordinary things. In a few simple steps, you can create a personal fundraising page on My.BarackObama and start reaching out to the people you know today. You can track your progress on your page, send email invitations, and even see who has responded. We've made it as easy as possible, and campaign staff will be available to make sure your personal fundraising efforts are a success. The GFC team put together a video of Michelle, a committee member from the spring who wanted to share her experience: Watch what she has to say:
More than a thousand people like you have joined the committee and helped power this movement through personal contact with fellow grassroots supporters. That stands in stark contrast to the campaign being run by John McCain and the RNC. Right now, McCain and the RNC are raking in huge contributions from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs to fund their increasingly negative attacks. With just 80 days to the election, we need more supporters like you to join the GFC now. Even if you have never done anything like this before, you can easily get started today.

Thank you for getting involved as we prepare for our final push, David David Plouffe Campaign Manager Obama for America
