Message from David Plouffe: “Who is Barack Obama?”

Earlier today, Campaign Manager David Plouffe sent out an email with a special, behind the scenes look at Barack and his family at the Democratic National Convention…

John McCain keeps asking this question at his rallies — then he gives answers that are shockingly false and negative.

That’s why it’s vital that you sign up to volunteer for at least one day during the final days of this election. Voters won’t know the truth about Barack unless supporters like you reach out to them.

I also wanted to share a video of personal moments from behind the scenes at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, so you can see Barack and Michelle as they are — decent, warm, and kind people with a loving family.

Watch the video and get to know the Obamas a little better. Then sign up to volunteer on a crucial day before the Election:

Our opponents try to stir up doubt and fear by questioning who Barack really is — as if after more than a decade in public office, more than 20 months on the campaign trail, dozens of debates, two books written by him and dozens more about him, people still don’t have enough information to decide for themselves who should lead our country.

Millions of Americans have gotten to know Barack Obama as an American who’s devoted his life to things bigger than himself — his community, his country, and ordinary citizens looking for a voice.

Our challenge now is to do the same — to devote these last weeks to a cause bigger than ourselves.

These tough economic times make our cause more urgent and the stakes even higher. Barack needs your help to win this election and bring the change we need to Washington.

Can you give a day of your time during the last four days of the election?

Watch the video, share it with others, and get involved.

Only 24 days remain until Election Day. Won’t you commit at least one to ensure our victory?

David
