I want to be able to say

Friend --

This holiday has felt a bit like one last long, deep breath before we plunge into 2012.

This time next year, I don't want us to have any regrets. I want to be able to say we rose to the task, and got it done. We've all got some work to do right now.

Over the next 11 months we've got an organization to grow, voters to register, and people to get fired up.

I hope you'll close out this year by donating $3 or more now to help make sure we're ready for the next one:

https://donate.barackobama.com/No-Regrets

Thank you so much, and happy new year,

Michelle

P.S. -- Also, when you donate today, you are automatically entered for a chance to be one of three supporters to have dinner with Barack and me.

Michelle and I are hosting

Friend --

It's not all that often that Michelle and I get to host a casual meal with friends.

That's one of the reasons we're both excited about the upcoming dinner with three supporters and your guests.

It's the first one we've ever done like this together, and we'd love to have you and whoever you choose to join us.

Chip in $3 or whatever you can today -- and you'll automatically be entered to be one of our dinner guests.

I enjoy these dinners not just because they're a way to connect with supporters across the country.

They also say a lot about what kind of campaign we're running.

We don't take a dime from D.C. lobbyists or special-interest PACs -- never have and never will. Instead, we believe in the kind of politics that gives everyone a seat at the table -- so we're literally offering these seats at dinner to folks who are willing to step forward and be a part of it.

There are just a few days left to add your name for a chance to be one of our guests at the next dinner, and help build this campaign before 2012 finally arrives.

Make a donation of $3 or whatever you can today -- and automatically enter to be there:

https://donate.barackobama.com/Me-and-Michelle

Thanks,

Barack

Where you'll be seated

2012
Friend --

I just saw the seating chart for Dinner with Barack and Michelle, and I thought you should see it, too.

The President and First Lady are right here. Where do you want to sit?

Take a look, then donate $3 or whatever you can to be automatically entered for a chance to win.

The Seating Chart

I've put a lot of dinners together for the President and Mrs. Obama.

Sometimes they've been for foreign dignitaries and heads of state. Sometimes they've included governors, artists, and musicians. The seating can get pretty complicated, but I have to say, this one was easy.

One table, six guests, and the President and First Lady.

So really, my job's done. The only thing that's missing is who the guests will be.

Click here to give $3 or whatever you can and be automatically entered for a chance for you and a guest to have dinner with the President and First Lady:

https://donate.barackobama.com/Barack-and-Michelle

I'd love for you to be there.

Sign the card, for the Obamas

2012
Friend --

I've known the President and the First Lady for a long time.

I've seen them face some big years before. But the year ahead will be the biggest.

And as we head into 2012, I think we should show Barack and Michelle how many folks are standing with them.

Wish the Obamas well for 2012.

A couple of us on the campaign are putting together a card for everyone to sign with our names and notes, wishing the President and the First Lady well for the year ahead. It may feel like a small gesture, but it's one that becomes very large, very quickly, when hundreds of thousands of people add their names. I just know it's going to mean the world to them.

This is Barack Obama's last campaign. Let's show him and Michelle that we'll be behind them every step of the way next year:

Thank you, and best wishes for a happy new year.

You all have to do this

2012
Friend --

You may know me as the tall guy who followed Barack everywhere he went.

As the President's body man for the last four years, it's been my privilege to help him with whatever he needs: making sure he's on time, finding some food when we're on the road, or playing a quick game of basketball (he won, mostly).

Of course, this also means I've also eaten many, many meals with him.

So first of all, I just want to say thanks for supporting the Obamas and being part of this campaign. It means a lot, not only to the President, but to all of us who've worked by his side.

Two: I kind of love this "Dinner with Barack and Michelle" contest. You all have to do this.

Get on that here.

You should know this practically never happens.

While Barack wants to do these dinners throughout his campaign, I know that dinner with Barack and Michelle is something that usually only happens with the girls, and no one else.

The fact that this dinner is with the two of them should tell you how much it matters to them to know that you have their backs out there.

I wouldn't let this one get away.

Donate $3 or whatever you can today to automatically be entered to win a spot at dinner for you and a guest:

https://donate.barackobama.com/Barack-and-Michelle

Thanks,

Reggie

Barack and Michelle

2012
Friend --

Beyond the titles, it's easy to forget sometimes that our President and First Lady are, when it comes down to it, regular people like us.

So I'd encourage you right now to enter our contest to do what few people will ever get to do -- not just have dinner with the President and First Lady of the United States, but have dinner with Barack and Michelle Obama.

Here's the link to throw your name in the hat for dinner with Barack and Michelle:

https://donate.barackobama.com/Barack-and-Michelle

This dinner isn't just some sweepstakes -- it's also a way to help build this campaign just days before our Republican opponents start competing in primaries and caucuses, and inevitably step up their attacks on the President and our campaign.

So make sure to enter before the deadline, and to spread the word to a friend or two -- if someone you tell about this opportunity ends up winning, I'd guess you'd be at the top of their guest list.

Thanks,

Julianna

Iraq

Friend --

Early this morning, the last of our troops left Iraq.

As we honor and reflect on the sacrifices that millions of men and women made for this war, I wanted to make sure you heard the news.

Bringing this war to a responsible end was a cause that sparked many Americans to get involved in the political process for the first time. Today's outcome is a reminder that we all have a stake in our country's future, and a say in the direction we choose.

Thank you.

Barack

I won't lie to you

2012
Friend --

I won't lie to you. You're going to be hearing a lot about the fundraising deadline coming up on the 31st.

There's a good reason for it: Once the calendar flips, there are no do-overs. All we've done to get a head start on the 2012 election will be put to the test in state after state.

I know this is a really busy time of year, so if you're planning to make a donation to help the campaign head into 2012 strong -- why not take a minute and chip in $3 or more right now?

Hands down, this is the biggest fundraising deadline this campaign has faced so far.

I've seen the budget we're hoping to roll out first thing next year -- and I can tell you so much of it is up in the air, depending on the support people like you show in these final two weeks.

If you were thinking you should hold off on making another donation until sometime next year, please don't.

The time to have a real impact is now, before the madness of an election year is upon us.

Please donate $3 or more today:

Very real, very quickly

2012
Friend --

A critical planning stage in this campaign will be over in just 20 days. That's when voters in Iowa participate in the first-in-the-nation caucus there and formally kick off the 2012 election.

This is one of the last times we're going to be talking about 2012 as "next year." Because in just a few weeks, we're going to be there.

Every day, we're making decisions about where and how the campaign will direct its resources in the months to come. You can still shape what that pre-caucus roadmap looks like.

Pitch in $3 or more today, and help us head into 2012 in as strong a position as possible.

This thing is going to get very real very quickly after January 3rd.

Because after Iowa, it'll be New Hampshire. Eleven days later: South Carolina. Ten more days: Florida. Then Nevada, Maine, Colorado.

With each primary and caucus, Republican voters are going to get more engaged and tuned in to this race. We need to be able to match that intensity every step of the way and be competitive in every state.

We don't know who their nominee is going to be yet, or what the months ahead are going to hold. But whatever you can give right now will help us make sure we're ready for it.

Please pitch in $3 today -- and help affect our strategy before the caucusing starts:

Your guest for dinner with President Obama

2012
Friend --

Have you been thinking about who you'd bring to the next Dinner with Barack?

President Obama will be bringing Michelle to the dinner he's having with grassroots supporters like you. The best part? If you join them, you have a chance to bring a loved one along, too.

Tell us who you would bring if you won -- and why.

Maybe it's your spouse, your aunt who volunteers a few times every month, or your niece who's about to vote for the first time in 2012.

Whoever you choose, this dinner isn't just a chance for you both to meet the President and the First Lady, it's a chance to share a special meal -- to ask the questions you've been dying to ask, and tell the stories you think they need to hear.

I hope you'll put your name in the running to share this once-in-a-lifetime experience with someone you care about.

Let us know who you'd bring and why you want them to meet the President and the First Lady:
