Friend --
Two years ago, I met 10 of you.
Just before I accepted our party's nomination in front of 80,000 people in Denver, I spoke with 10 grassroots supporters who had won a trip to meet me backstage.
I still remember the time we spent together -- because these are the people, like you, who stood with me in 2008, and got me through the tough fights since.
But we face another test on November 2nd that will say a lot about our future -- and I need you by my side again.
A Supreme Court decision I strongly disagree with has shifted the balance of power in our elections from folks like you to giant corporations. Their massive spending on attack ads could have a real impact on who represents you at all levels of government. Only supporters like you -- and all the work you are doing -- are standing in their way.
This may be our toughest fight yet.
So next week, just 11 days before the elections, I want to meet three supporters like you backstage at a rally in Las Vegas -- one of the last big rallies of this campaign.
Please make a $3 donation now to be automatically entered to win a trip to be at my side at the rally in Vegas.
This movement has always been about more than me. It's about change, and the kind of future we envision for this country.
The folks I met backstage in Denver told me they wanted health reform, a clean-energy economy, and a resolution to the war in Iraq. They wanted a new kind of politics, and a new kind of leader.
It was their hope and expectation that together we would move beyond the status quo, that we would counter the special interests and corporate influence in Washington -- that we would do what was right and necessary for all Americans.
With your help, we have made historic progress, but there is much left to do -- and it will not happen without your involvement. I need strong allies in Congress who will stand with us in the tough fights ahead, and I need you to give it all you've got through November 2nd to make sure they can.
Your donation today will provide critical support to our Vote 2010 campaign as we reach out to millions of voters who will decide the closest races across the country.
It will determine if we pass this test, and win our toughest fight yet.
Please donate $3 or more to be automatically entered to win a trip to Las Vegas to meet me backstage:

I hope to see you out there,
President Barack Obama

$3 dollar sweepstake?
Seems fitting.
He is as phony as a $3 dollar bill.
Sincerely,

Ha ha. A $3 bet at the track seems a better investment at this point.
Plus I thought no one was supposed to go to Vegas?
Ill be in vegas on the 23rd. When/where is this rally? 11 days prior to the election is _____????? The 22nd??? Looks like I wont be there in time to freep it.
The $3 is probably in reference to the old saying "queer as a $3 bill".
This has got to be one of the most embarassing things I have ever read. $3?
I post as a site a ton called www.getbig.com on the political boards and everyone is cool over there. I posted the vids of mayor of las vegas on obama.
This is unreal how inept this is.
No!
Why not? Lets say I win and can get a direct question on the BC issue or bust open a T - Shirt saying “Where is the BC?”?
I wouldn’t even send that muzzie, marxist, kenyan usurper one of my bubba klinton $3 bills!
But - if i can send $3 and ask the question on tape everyone wants to aan answer to - would it be worth it?
I sent this to Drudge - hopefully he will list it for its sheer pathetic attempt at drumming up cash.
This sounds like a lottery and may not be legal in all 57 states.
Legal? Duh! What was I thinking!?! This is from President For Life Barrak Milhouse Odumbo!
This needs to go viral. i already sent it to drudge.
ha ha
