Dear friend,

Thank you. Your name has been added to the petition and your comments will be delivered to Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Democratic leadership.

Another great way to make sure our leaders know that grassroots support is what powers this party is to spread the word to your friends and family so they know what's going on. You can just forward the sample letter below.

Spreading the word is critical, but please only pass this message along to those who know you -- spam hurts our campaign.

Thanks for all you do.
--The MoveOn.org Political Action Team

Here's a sample message to send to your friends:

Subject: Do Billionaires Own the Democratic Party?

Hi,


I don't know if you saw this, but 20 big Clinton donors tried to bully Nancy Pelosi for saying that superdelegates should let the voters decide who becomes the Democratic nominee. This is the worst kind of insider politics, and it has to stop.

You and I and everyone who has ever given money or time to a progressive candidate make up the backbone of this party.

We need to send a strong signal that we, the small donors, will back Democratic leaders with the courage to stand up for Democracy in the Democratic party. Please join me and sign this statement today.

10. I don't sign petitions, but I did contribute to the DCCC today: and you should before the 31st

Okay, so I usually contribute to the DCCC a couple of times during an election year cycle anyway. (I gave them a bit in the fall, and I was going to again this spring but hadn't gotten to it yet).

But you should know that if you donate before March 31, your donation of $30 or more will be TRIPLED. So don't just sign a petition. If you can afford it, send a few bucks to the DCCC. You should be doing this anyway, aside from this little contretemps.

12. What's DCCC do with the money/who's in charge?

I contribute to DNC.

I am wondering who's the best one to contribute to, can't afford any more than one.

15. It funnels the money into specific House races

This is why I give to the DCCC (for House races) and DSCC (for Senate races). They assess the competitive races and channel the money directly to where it's needed.

16. Thanks,

I like knowing stuff like that..

But I'm sticking with Howard Dean at DNC. If he ever leaves it, will try one of the ones you mentioned..
