Dear Friend,

Somebody out there believes that you're ready to own a piece of this campaign.

A fellow supporter has promised that if you make a donation right now, they will match what you give.

So take the next step.

Prove to them that they were right to put their faith in you. Make a donation now and double your impact:

This isn't an anonymous donor program backed by big checks from Washington lobbyists or corporate fat cats. This is a one-to-one, supporter-to-supporter effort.

If you make a donation, you'll be matched up with a real person -- another supporter who has put their faith in you. And you'll be able to read a note from them and send a response.

Here's how it works:

• You choose the amount you're willing to give -- it will be doubled by someone willing to match that amount


• You'll see the name and town of the fellow Obama supporter who agreed to double your donation


• You'll be able to write a note to the person who matched you and let them know why you decided to own a piece of this campaign

Our movement is funded by actual people -- individuals who are moved to give whatever they can afford, whether it's five dollars or five hundred dollars.

Most campaigns do not realize the value of contributions from ordinary people -- they are focused on the money that comes from Washington lobbyists and special interest groups.

But we reject the notion that lobbyists and PACs represent "real people," and we've refused their money since this campaign began.

So it's up to you.

Make a donation and show your support. Double your impact by giving today and being a part of our supporter match campaign:

According to the Campaign Finance Institute, we have raised more money in small dollar contributions than any major campaign in history.

If we keep building our movement this way, we have the potential to fundamentally reshape the political process.

We can end the days of lobbyists and political action committees paying for access and influence.

That's why we're so focused on bringing new donors into the campaign. For the next ten days you will write the history of this presidential election through your actions.

You have the opportunity to build the biggest grassroots campaign politics has ever seen.

Make a donation, connect with another supporter, and double your impact now:

Thanks for your support,
