I always look forward to the Democratic National Convention, and not just because I get to see Barack in his best suit.
There's a special kind of energy when passionate and dedicated people come together in common purpose.
You've just got to be there to feel it for yourself. And this year, maybe you can.
Tonight at midnight is the deadline to enter for a chance to join us, and for today only, every entry counts as two chances to win.
 Donate $X or whatever you can to be automatically entered to be my personal guest for the convention.  
We'll fly you and a guest to Charlotte and make sure you get VIP seats for all three days. Plus, you'll get to meet Barack before he accepts the nomination, and watch with me up front as he takes the stage.
Our convention is about honoring people like you: The volunteers who spend their weekends registering voters, the donors who chip in what they can to grow this campaign, the organizers who put in long hours making calls and knocking on doors. You are the ones who deserve a front-row seat to history.
And it's about laying out the future we're working toward together: A country that rewards hard work, gives every worker a fair shot, and provides all of our children access to a great education, allowing them to dream even bigger than we ever did.
I know the work you're doing out there isn't easy, but it's what's going to win us this election. That's why I want you to feel the energy of the convention for yourself -- and add your own into the mix as well.
Donate $X or whatever you can before midnight tonight, and you'll be automatically entered -- twice -- to join Barack and me at the convention:
