Dear JARED,
Here is what the history books will say about John Kerry's 2004 campaign. They'll say we had a remarkable candidate determined to take the White House back and lead America in a new, more promising direction.
And, they'll say that John Kerry's winning campaign was driven forward by people like you -- people who sensed the moments when he needed special support and, every time, matched his strength with their own willingness to act.
We are in one of those moments right now. Last night, as I addressed the Democratic convention, I tried to do my part to advance John Kerry's campaign. Today, I am writing to urge you to do yours.
We won't see another week this critical to the outcome of the Kerry-Edwards versus Bush-Cheney contest until the debates in the final 30 days of this election. You and I can't afford to let a critical week like this pass without our active involvement. We owe it to ourselves. We owe it to our children and grandchildren -- and we owe it to John Kerry.
Look, I know a little something about the remarkable experience John Kerry is going through this week. I know what it's like to step up to that microphone and accept the honor and responsibility of representing so many people's hopes and aspirations in a vitally important presidential election.
I even know what it's like to be asked to lead our party into a campaign against an incumbent president. But, most important of all, I know what it's like to be able to count on people like you to help at special moments like this.
With you leading the way, the Kerry-Edwards campaign is writing a remarkable new chapter in presidential politics. In record numbers -- and with "we won't be denied" enthusiasm -- people are putting everything they've got into taking the White House and placing our hopes for America's future into the hands of John Kerry and John Edwards.
This is the week that we move those efforts to a still higher level. Let's not yield an inch to our opponents. Let's stick together. Let's win.
Sincerely,
