Have you seen this video — "Rising Up" — that juxtaposes some of the media coverage we’ve received with the real story of the issues and the people who power our campaign? Please watch it, and then chip in $2.70 to help us fight back:
Friends -
On this campaign, we are not only taking on almost two dozen Democratic candidates for president and virtually the entire damn 1 percent.
It often seems like we are taking on much of the corporate media in this country — especially the news-as-entertainment set that treats politics as if it were a soap opera or a sporting event.
Those folks HATE Bernie Sanders. You’ve seen them:
"Bernie Sanders makes my skin crawl."
- MSNBC analyst
"If you are still supporting Sanders… it’s kind of showing your sexism."
- Another MSNBC analyst
"He’s a socialist from the 1950s yelling at people in the same screechy voice, without smiling."
- Another MSNBC analyst
"I think he comes off as mean, he’s disparaging."
- Another MSNBC analyst
We know it can be maddening. So we thought it worth sharing a supporter-created video on the topic that has millions of views — because you are not alone.
Thank you for stepping up and helping our campaign to fight back against some of the ridiculous attacks we have to suffer that are unique to any candidate in this race. It means a lot.
All my best,

We hope you'll stay, because emails are such an important part of how we organize and how we raise money. In fact, there is no single greater source for our campaign's fundraising than emails like this one. And that's important, because no one person, not even Bernie Sanders, can take on Trump and the billionaire class alone.
Before you go about the rest of your day, help power our fight against the billionaire class by making a contribution today.
