Irish Americans for Obama
Dear Friends,
I want to thank you for all you’re doing to build our movement for change.
Grassroots groups have seized on the desire of ordinary Americans to take back our country,
and organized this energy and enthusiasm into a strong, disciplined campaign. You’ve taken
responsibility for reaching out to your neighbors and fellow citizens to make the case for
change.
From the beginning, Irish Americans for Obama has been one of those grassroots
groups – whether it’s canvassing in Ohio and Pennsylvania or calling from home in
Massachusetts and New York. I know that your hard work has made a difference in the past
two years, and I know it’s going to make the difference in these last few days. Let me be
clear: we’re not there yet. This race will tighten as we get closer to the end. And the
difference between the change we seek and more of the same is you.
We have asked a lot from our supporters, and you have taken ownership of our
movement, because you know that “change happens from the bottom-up” is not just a slogan
– it is the story of this campaign. At every test, you have succeeded. With the final test just
a few days away, I have no doubt that you will rise to the occasion again. And together we
will succeed, and together, we will change America.
Sincerely,
Barack Obama
