I am respectfully asking​

Joe Biden was there every step of the way when he and I navigated crises like H1N1 and the Ebola outbreak.

There's nobody that I trust more to heal this country and get us back on track than my dear friend Joe Biden -- which is why in just a minute, I'm going to ask you to chip in your very first $7 to the Democratic Unity Fund. First, give me a chance to tell you how I know that Joe is the right person for the job: Joe Biden was there every step of the way when he and I navigated crises like H1N1 and the Ebola outbreak, successfully preventing pandemics like the one gripping America today. He oversaw implementation of the Recovery Act, pulling our country out of the worst economic recession since the Great Depression and putting it on the path for record job creation. And Joe was right by my side as we tackled some of our nation's biggest challenges, never wavering from his core principles of decency, honesty, and dignity for working people. I'm doing everything I possibly can to help make sure that Joe Biden -- not to mention Democratic candidates all across our country -- can win their races this November. But I can't do that alone. No single person can. That is why I launched the Democratic Unity Fund, and why I'm calling on you to show your support at this critical turning point in the race. The Democratic Unity Fund is more than just a symbolic gesture of unity -- it's a central part of our strategy to not only win the Oval Office, but to flip the Senate, expand our majority in the House, and elect Democrats to offices all the way down to the local level. The results of this election hinge on what this team is able to accomplish together over these next few critical months, and the outcome of this race could echo for generations. We've only got 95 days left until the most consequential election of our lifetimes, and I say that having run for president twice. So, will you donate your first ever $7 to the Democratic Unity Fund? We have to give this race everything we've got. DONATE: $7 DONATE: $10 DONATE: $25 DONATE: $50 DONATE: $100 Donate another amount I want to take this opportunity to make one thing very clear: Joe may be a dear friend of mine, but that's far from the only reason why I believe he has what it takes to be our next president. He was a trusted, battle-tested advisor through our eight years together in the White House -- and today, I'm proud to stand alongside him as he fights to restore what he often calls "the soul of America." Fully funding the Democratic Unity Fund through these next three crucial months until the election will give Joe, and Democrats in all 50 states, the best possible shot at winning their races. If you can, I am asking you to donate your first $7 to the DNC's Democratic Unity Fund. Every dollar of every investment made today will push us closer to electing Joe Biden and Democrats in every corner of our country. We can win this if we work together. Yours, Barack Obama P.S. If everyone on this grassroots team could pitch in, the Democratic Unity Fund would have enough resources to help carry Joe Biden and Democrats nationwide across the finish line. But I know that's not realistic for many of you reading this email right now -- and that's OK. However, a donation at this major stage of the race would make a big difference, so if you can, please make your first $7 donation directly to the Democratic Unity Fund today.
