Friends:
As many of you know, I grew up in a family full of politicians - so as you might imagine, I've been around this stuff for almost 35 years now... But I must confess, today is different from all the other days.
It's "Super Tuesday" and many believe that today has the potential to decide the next four years. I believe that today has the potential to decide the course of history for our planet...
I'm writing today to ask you to take 4 minutes to view this video:
Once you've watched, ask yourself this:
Do you believe that we can do better? As a people? As a country? As a planet? As individuals?
Do you believe that our country isn't as divided as people claim?
Do you believe that the differences between Republicans, and Democrats, and Independents, and those who don't even want to be labeled, aren't really that far apart?
The main think to ask: Do you believe?
I do.
I believe we can change.
I believe the time is now.
I believe Barack Obama is the best person to lead us.
I believe Barack Obama is the best person to inspire us.
I believe Barack Obama is the best person to help us believe again.
You may not live in a Super Tuesday primary state, but I imagine you know someone who does...
Call them.
Email them.
Right now - there is still time. (you can even forward this email if that makes it easier for you...)
Ask them to support Senator Obama for President.
Ask them to go vote today - or in the coming days if their state hasn't had a primary yet.
Ask them to believe.
To paraphrase, "I'm not just asking you to believe in Senator Obama's ability to bring about real change in Washington... I'm asking you to believe in yours..."
If not now, when will it happen?
If not you, who will do it?
Years from now, people will have the chance to look back on this election and say,
Today was when America changed the course of human history...
Today was when people started to believe again...
Today was the day that made all the difference...
Thanks for your time... Thanks for your optimism... Thanks for your hope... Thanks for believing that yes we can...
Joey
