Friend,
 
The truth is not always politically convenient. 
 
When I said that the Democrats should examine whether or not it’s wise that a party that owes its national victories in large part to voters of color begin their primary process in two states whose diversity doesn’t reflect the primary electorate as a whole - there was backlash. 
 
But yesterday, Nate Silver joined a growing number of voices in agreement:
 
 
 
I intend to compete for every vote in Iowa and New Hampshire, and I appreciate the caucus-goers who dedicate themselves to the primary process. 
 
Additionally, with the news of Senator Harris dropping out of the race, there are currently no candidates of color who have met the DNC’s requirements to qualify for the next debate. 
 
This process needs to be fixed. 
 
I’m close to hitting the donor threshold to qualify for the December debate. 
 
 
Let’s win, 
Julián

No one like Julián Castro has ever been in the Oval Office. His grandmother immigrated here from Mexico when she was just 7 years old. She never got past the 4th grade, but she provided for her family by working as a maid and a housekeeper.

Now, her grandson is running for President of the United States. Against all odds, grassroots Democrats like YOU helped him qualify for the Democratic debates and sent him to the front of the pack of Democratic candidates.

We know we send you a lot of emails, but that’s because we’re relying on grassroots supporters to overcome our next big challenge:

Julián must be able to compete and build a movement that lasts for the long haul, and he’s not taking a cent of corporate PAC money to do it. Will you be a part of this historic campaign?
