I am very excited and honored at the prospect of serving as a Massachusetts delegate for Obama in Denver. Many of you know that I've been campaigning tirelessly for Senator Obama since last summer. I've spent much time on the ground in New Hampshire, traveled to Iowa, organized in Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, and Maine, and I have made phone calls to voters in many other states. I'm part of the New England Steering Committee as well as a Coordinator for Massachusetts Women for Obama; in fact I am helping to organize a large group of MA WFO who will be traveling to Pennsylvania April 11-14.
I realized Barack Obama was a unique politician the first time I heard him speak, at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, where I was a volunteer. I was simply blown away by his inspirational message, and I continued to follow his career. In October, 2006 I attended a Kennedy Library event, where he indicated he was considering a run for the presidency. As soon as he announced his candidacy in February 2007, I was on board. I truly believe he has the necessary judgment and experience to be president, and that he is the only candidate who can inspire and bring real change to our country and restore America's credibility and leadership around the world. I'm committed to doing everything I can to help him get elected president.
In order to be selected a delegate at the Caucus on April 5th, I need to recruit as many registered Democrats as are willing to stand with me. I hope you'll help me, first by agreeing to attend the caucus to vote for me, and also by forwarding this email to your associates, acquaintances, friends and family in the 7th Congressional District who are registered Democrats, notifying them of my candidacy and encouraging them to attend and support me. I'd be most appreciative, as I need your and their assistance in order to be elected on April 5th.
On April 5th, doors will open at 12:00 noon for registration. The Caucus will be called to order at 1:00 p.m. and registration will end at 1:15 p.m. The voting process may take an hour or so.
Please call or email me if you have any questions. I really hope to see you there. Many thanks in advance.
