Tomorrow is the financial reporting deadline for July.

Once again, everyone will be sizing up this campaign to see if we can compete with John McCain and the Republican National Committee.

Your hard work and generosity have gotten us this far, but the fact remains, our opponents still have a big fundraising advantage. They are very good at raking in huge donations, especially from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs.

That’s why we need to show the strength of our grassroots movement before tomorrow’s deadline. Help prove that a campaign powered by people like you, giving only what they can afford, can go toe-to-toe with the Republican fundraising machine.

Make a donation of $5 or more to support this movement for change:

As you’ve probably heard, if you make a donation before tomorrow at midnight, you could join me at the Democratic National Convention in Denver.

This year, we’re opening up the convention the way supporters like you have opened up the political process all across the country. On the last day, more than 75,000 people will come together to be a part of history — folks like you who have been building this movement from the bottom up.

It will be an incredible event, and if you make a donation in any amount before tomorrow’s deadline, you and a guest could travel to Denver, spend a couple of nights at a hotel, and join me backstage before I accept the nomination.

Please make a donation of $5 or more now. I’m looking forward to seeing you soon:

Barack
