Dear Folks:

We are celebrating two important birthdays this weekend in Ohio.

This Monday, August 4th, is Barack’s birthday. And believe it or not, it’s Governor Ted Strickland’s birthday too.

We have a unique opportunity to give both of them something that few other people across the nation can.

This weekend, the Campaign for Change is hosting Pot Luck Birthday and Phonebank Parties across Ohio — and you can give them your time, energy, and passion by attending and bringing a few friends.

The parties are a great place to meet fellow supporters in your community and reach out to Ohioans by making phone calls and introducing them to our movement for change.

Ted Strickland knows that Barack Obama will bring change to Ohio.

Give Barack and Ted the best birthday gift you can by making calls to Ohio voters to tell them about Barack — who he is, what he stands for, and how he plans to bring real change to Ohio.

Since it’s Barack’s 47th birthday, we’ve set a goal for the weekend of making 47,000 calls. It’s a tall order, but it’s only possible with your help.

It’s thanks to supporters like you that we’ve come as far as we have. Now, we have to step up for Barack. With less than 100 days until November 4th, we can’t afford to wait.

We can’t do this without you.

Thanks for all that you do,

Aaron
