a message from Michelle Obama to … Supporters !

You’re committed. If you’ve posted on Facebook about these elections or talked to a friend — you’ve done more for this election than your vote alone.
You care about the future. These elections are about the country and world we want to leave for our kids and grandkids. You get that.
You’re smart. Smart people are tuned in to these elections because they know how much ground we can gain.
You like Barack. I think he’s pretty cool, too.
You are standing by your convictions. Each time you chip in that extra $5 or $10, you are putting your name and your hard-earned money behind Barack and Democrats. It makes me so proud — and so grateful.
You’ve got a lot of friends. With hundreds of thousands of Democrats across the country coming together to elect leaders who share our values, I think you’re in good company!

An Interview You Should Watch:

Whenever challenges face the world, one fact is clear: The world looks to the United States.

Last night, in an interview with 60 Minutes, President Obama explained why the United States is “the indispensable nation” when trouble arises in the world. From responding to humanitarian crises to confronting terrorism, America leads.

Because, as the President said, “that’s how we roll.”

Watch the video here — and pass it on.

Community Colleges: The Secret Sauce

At the White House today, Secretary of Labor Tom Perez joined Vice President Joe Biden at the White House to announce the fourth round of job-driven training grants to community colleges across America.

In this week’s address, the President reiterated the forceful and optimistic message of American leadership that he delivered in his speech before the United Nations General Assembly earlier this week.

Last week, the President unveiled the “It’s on Us” campaign, signed the America’s Promise Summit Declaration, and headed to New York City for the 69th session of the United Nations General Assembly. See the highlights in the latest edition of “West Wing Week.”

a personal message from General (Ret.) Wesley Clark

10/02/2014 Nativegrl77

I’ve been a VoteVets advisor since their launch in 2006, and I can’t remember a more decisive ad than the one featuring Vietnam Veteran Charles Erwin hammering Mitch McConnell for his vote to block improvements to VA care during a time of crisis.

In the coming weeks, VoteVets is set to launch similarly powerful ads in several states with critical Senate elections.

When the clock strikes midnight, they’ll close the books on their final fundraising deadline and start to make decisions about how far they can push these ads. I hope you’ll stand with me and make a $5 contribution to VoteVets today.

Thanks for standing with me and supporting VoteVets.

All the best,

General (Ret.) Wesley Clark
