Friends -
Elizabeth Warren came to Wisconsin.
Then Cory Booker came to Wisconsin.
And this past weekend, President Obama came to Wisconsin to campaign with Mandela.
They all understand that this Wisconsin Senate race is critical to expanding the Democratic majority. And right now, they need to know that you are as committed to this effort as they are.
Here is some of what President Obama had to say while in Wisconsin:
"I know there are some folks, maybe not in this auditorium but in Wisconsin, who think — and I know these ads are running this way — that just because Mandela's named Mandela, that just because he's a Democrat with a funny name, he must not be not like you, he must not share your values. I mean we've seen this — it sounds pretty familiar doesn't it?
"[Mandela] worked as an organizer, served as a state legislator, now a Lieutenant Governor, he's fought every step of the way to make sure Wisconsinites have opportunity to get ahead just like he did; he believes in the American dream. If that's not a true-blooded Wisconsin American, I don't know what is. C'mon!
"So when you see ads implying that Mandela is somehow dangerous or different, ask yourself: who knows more about your life? This millionaire whose top priority seems to be looking out for his rich friends, or a guy from a working-class family who understands what Wisconsinites are going through each and every day and wants to make your lives better. Whose dad knows what it's like to work hard with his hands. Whose mom knows what it's like to work hard as a teacher. Do not fall for it, Wisconsin. You deserve a Senator like Mandela Barnes."
President Obama is ready to send Mandela Barnes to the Senate, and we know you are too, team. Will you join President Obama in the fight to flip Wisconsin's Senate seat by chipping in right now?
