Friend --

We both know Donald Trump is unfit for the presidency.

But that doesn't mean he can't win in November -- not when his campaign and the Republican Party are raising millions of dollars every day to help him beat Hillary Clinton, including more than $80 million last month alone.

So no matter what the polls and pundits say, we have to act like a team that's playing from behind -- because until the very last person in line casts his or her vote, nothing is certain.

That means doing everything we can to give our organizers on the ground all the support and resources they need to do the work it takes to win presidential campaigns. It means making phone calls or standing in front of grocery stores or knocking on doors. It means doing everything we can to make sure folks get registered. It means making sure people know why Hillary's the best candidate for this job, and making sure they make it to the ballot box on Election Day.

Let's give it everything we've got -- chip in to help make sure Hillary Clinton becomes the next President of the United States (and you’ll get a free sticker in the deal, too):



Thanks -- now let's get this done.

Barack

But I don't think that anybody calling me "friend" in a mass email is really my friend either.
