$17.76 For Obama
In honor of America's birthday, i'm looking to raise $1776.00 for Barack Obama.
I'm asking for donations in theamount of $17.76
Donate here.
The RNC and John McCain are busy raising money and the RNC has a huge money advantage over the DNC.
If Obama can't keep up, and with many of you threatening to withhold your money, its entirely possibly he won't be able to, then this country may be heading towards four more years of disaster.
Since Obama has opted out of public financing, donors like you and I are the SOLE source of funding for his campaign. If you abandon him now, the consequences for our country could be dire.
Senator Obama often speaks of the "fierce urgency of now". He needs your support. And he needs it now.
Today.
Please, please give it to him.

Why not go for $177.60? Or, $1,776! Use some of that stimulus rebate you're getting!

Been there, done that!
Celebrate the rebirth of America with Obama!
The Bush administration has taken us to some dark places, but the sun is beginning to shine up over the horizon again. Si Se Puede!
This is a really good idea Freaktown to take the Obama fundraiser out onto the wider web. I didn't even know it could be done. You should check in with the campaign. If they think it's as good an idea as I do, they might put directions for it up on the site so more of us could do it. Innovation!!!
