Dear Friend,

Someone, somewhere, is hoping you will join them in owning a piece of this campaign.

Right now, supporters who have previously donated to the campaign are promising to give again to match your first online donation.

If you give, you'll see the name and town of the real person who has promised to give the same amount.

Be a part of our matching program -- donate now and have your impact doubled:

Here's what some first-time donors wrote to the people who matched their donations yesterday.

One new donor wrote:

Another, a woman in Massachusetts, wrote:

The process is simple -- you choose the amount you want to give, and we'll do the rest.

Like these two real supporters, you'll be matched with a real person who believes so deeply in this campaign that they're willing to give again just to bring you in.

Make a donation right now and your impact will be doubled:

Those two new donors have felt the personal consequences of the failure in leadership that got us into this mess in Iraq. But they know that Barack Obama will end the war and restore America's moral leadership in the world.

Barack showed the judgment to oppose this war before it began, and he's laid out a clear plan to bring our troops home. For them, that's personal.

Each of us has our own reasons why the political process has become personal.

But one thing we all have in common is the desire to take ownership of the solutions to these problems.

If you've been considering making a donation, now is the time -- someone will match it, and you'll get to see their name, their town, and a note if they chose to write one. If you want, you can even write a note in return.

Make a donation now and be matched:

It's important to remember that no single person -- including Barack Obama -- can end this war alone.

It's going to take a movement to elect a new president with the judgment and courage to change direction in Iraq and here at home.

That movement is growing rapidly, and you can be part of it by making a donation today.

Right now someone is waiting to share their story and match your donation. Take the next step and join them:

Thank you,
