Folks, if you're a fan of Barack Obama, and you're in the DC area, please help us "Barack the Vote" tonight. DraftObama.org is going to be holding a grassroots fundraising event today, Tuesday, December 19th here in DC (at Local 16 - 1602 U street, NW).
Full details below, but it's a low dollar fundraiser -- $25 minimum -- and also the venue where we're going to be unveiling our new Draft Obama TV ad that we're going to start running in NH this week.
If you like Senator Obama, and you want to see him run (or are at least curious), come join us and help us convince him to take the plunge. Space is limited (seriously, for real, no BS, it's a teeny place), so if you want to come, please RSVP asap at:

Host: Draft Obama (Rosenberg, Gill, Cutts, Greene, Hlinko, Cross, Schultz)
Location: Local 16 Restaurant, 1602 U St NW, Washington
When: Tuesday, December 19, 5:30pm
"Obama-mania" is spreading across America and you can help us convince him to take the plunge and run for president. Please join hosts Andy Rosenberg, Ainsley Gill, Matthew Cutts, Joshua Greene, John Hlinko, Laura Cross, and Kris Schultz on Tuesday, December 19th for a grassroots fundraiser for DraftObama.org, and help us turn this draft into a real campaign (low dollar -- only $25 minimum).
In the few short weeks since it launched, the momentum of DraftObama.org has been astonishing:
- National news coverage, including from CNN, Fox, AP, and NPR
- The imminent launch of our television ad -- the first TV ad of the 2008 campaign.
- The addition of netroots pioneer leaders from the Draft Clark and Dean campaigns.
- Launches of state DraftObama.org chapters in New York and Hawaii, with dozens of others imminent.
Help us do even more. Come meet founder Ben Stanfield and the rest of the DraftObama.org leadership team, connect with fellow drafters, and help "Barack the Vote." We will also be officially unveiling our TV ad, "Believe Again" at this very event. The pre-launch buzz around this ad has been explosive. In addition to national news coverage, the ad became YouTube's top viewed news video of the day in less than 24 hours after it was posted.
Contribution levels for the event are as follows:
- Hosts: $500
- Boosters: $100
- Attendees: $25 (minimum)
Please make your contribution today at www.DraftObama.org or you bring your check or credit card to the event. Help spread Obama-mania, help "Barack the Vote," and help us turn this draft into a real campaign. (Please note that contributions must come from US citizens, and that this is a DRAFT, and not an official campaign. We are not in any way affiliated with Senator Obama or his staff.)
