I remember standing with Barack as he began this campaign on the steps of the old capitol in Springfield, Illinois in 2007.
I knew that he was the leader our country needed -- and I've watched him prove it every day since.
But this is Barack's last campaign, and at midnight on Sunday, we're facing a fundraising deadline that will determine whether or not we can finish what we started.
This will be an extraordinarily close election -- don't let anyone tell you otherwise. It'll be over before you know it, so we need your help today.
Please, chip in $X or more if you can:

I'm fired up for the next 39 days. If you are, too, help us bring this campaign home.
