I'll never forget the way Iowans came together in their communities, at the grassroots level, to support me when I ran for governor in 1998. There hadn't been a Democratic Governor in Iowa in 30 years, and it was only by unifying that we were able to build a true statewide organization.
Now it's time to unite once again.
Now that our party has selected a nominee, it's crucial that we come together to support Barack Obama. He is the only candidate who can bring about the real change America needs.
Our state is going to be a major battleground in the general election -- but it will take all of our efforts to turn Iowa blue.
That's why we need to continue spreading Barack's message of change in our communities. Across Iowa, folks are coming together to join Obama Precinct Teams to build our grassroots movement one block at a time by reaching out to friends, family, and neighbors.

But with less than 100 days left until November 4th, it will take all of us working together to succeed.
If you are concerned with ending the war in Iraq, repairing the damage that this administration has done to America's reputation abroad, making sure that we address climate change in a meaningful way, building a better educational system, and ensuring healthcare for every single American, then there is only one candidate in this race -- and that is Barack Obama.
Any amount of time you're able to devote to the campaign, there's a way for you to get involved -- the Campaign for Change is looking for people to work as Team Leaders, Precinct Captains, and volunteers.
Your help will be crucial to our success in November.
