The next two weeks in Iowa could change America. « Thread Started on Dec 19, 2007, 1:15am » --------------------------------------------------------------------------------The next two weeks in Iowa could change America. Every day, Obama field organizers do everything from knocking on doors and distributing yard signs to organizing rallies and making sure townhall meetings go off without a hitch. They work long hours for little pay, and they do it proudly. That's why we've created a new system to help support the work we are doing on the ground and connect you with our field organizers more directly than ever before. For the first time, you have the opportunity to see the cost of the specific, concrete items they need for the final 16 days here and decide exactly how you want to help pay for their work. For about $24, you can buy 50 clipboards or 5 flashlights and batteries for after-work canvassers. About $26 will pay for pizza for phonebank volunteers. And around $27 will buy a large box of posterboard for volunteers to make signs. Choose how you're going to help us win Iowa and make a donation of about $25 now: https://donate.barackobama.com/organize Our field organizers in Iowa are from all walks of life -- seasoned veterans of the caucus process and folks who have never worked in politics before. They have talent and training to do lots of different things, but they have all chosen to dedicate themselves to Barack Obama and our movement for change. Grassroots supporters like you across the country help provide our field organizers' salaries and the materials they need to do their jobs effectively. And with our new system, you get to know exactly how you're making a difference. With only 16 days to go, this is the most direct way you can help us win Iowa. Make a difference where it counts most by supporting our program on the ground here: https://donate.barackobama.com/organize Thank you for everything you're doing to help us win.
