And at this time, I simply cannot afford to give any more. So I sorta wish they'd stop sending me a constant barrage of emails asking for more.

I know I have less energy to do campaign work, phone banks, etc. Hoping that closer to November I can make calls from home. But I'll watch my expenses to allow me to make donations until the election.

Both my daughter & I are active volunteers with the campaign since January. My daughter, 17 yrs old & 1st time voter in November, is now a Fellow with Organizing for America. Last night we canvassed an apt community in Tucson & we registered 8 people, one was a Republican voting for President Obama who wants to volunteer!! We had the honor of volunteering at Michelle Obama's event in Tucson - she is awesome - got to shake her hand!! We also volunteered in the 2008 campaign - got to shake Candidate Obama's hand when he came to ASU in 2007!! I started donating to a candidate for the first time in my life in 2007.

I live in ruby red Idaho so I know what America would look like if republicans are allowed to gut society as we know it.

The alternative is unthinkable.

They are marked up by about 50%. So it counts.

I think I also made a donation a few months ago. My aunt donates every month. A lot of the people I've called are donors.
