Hi,

I’ve been talking with Pete about this all-access media bus tour for MONTHS. It’s most campaigns’ nightmare -- having press with you on the road 24/7 with no filter and no barriers. But then again, most campaigns don’t have a candidate like Pete.

From the beginning, we’ve run an unconventional campaign. We’ve gotten this far by being fearless and by disregarding some of the outdated rules of modern presidential politics. We’ll win this whole damn thing by keeping it up.

Besides, Pete places a premium on transparency. He says as much in just about every email to you. He wants to do the same with the press, too.

Maybe for any other communications adviser that would be a nonstarter. But with Pete? Have at it, I say. To know Pete is to like him and to understand that he is a once-in-a-generation candidate. That’s why everything on this bus tour is “on the record” and public information -- because we want as many people as possible to see the Pete we get to see every day.

Having the media along for the ride is really just an added bonus. What matters most are the conversations we have in every Iowa community along the way of this bus trip. It’s about caucus-goers getting to know Pete. Because when they do, they’ll like him. His message will hit home with them. And his vision for the country will resonate with them. Take it from someone who met Pete and immediately became obsessed with the idea of working for him. And here I am -- ready to win the presidency.

So here we go. Today’s the day. Pete and I are kicking things off in Newton and heading to Boone tomorrow. And while the next few days may be about Iowa, what we do here can translate to other states, too. New Hampshire. South Carolina. Nevada. California. You can help us keep it up and build the campaign by making a donation now: [link removed]

In fact, you may have noticed this is my first email to this team. And because it’s my first, I want some results that will blow my teammates out of the water. 10,000 donations by the time the bus tour wraps up? Sounds bold enough to me -- and every single one of those donations will help us build a campaign with the resources to win. In Iowa. In New Hampshire. In South Carolina and beyond. Send a donation our way now to make it happen: [link removed]

Thanks, and stay tuned for more updates from the road. Keep your eye on Twitter for comments from the press, too!
