Hunter --

June 30th at 11:59 p.m. is the first big deadline of this
campaign. At that moment, we'll close the books on this
financial quarter and begin preparing our fundraising report
to the Federal Election Commission, the press, and the
public.

Our opponents are chasing Washington lobbyists and
special-interest PACs for big checks ahead of the deadline.
To them, and to most of the pundits, campaigns are all about
how many millions of dollars each candidate can raise.

We disagree. Of course we have a budget and financial goals.
But we believe that the true strength of our campaign is the
number of everyday people owning a piece of it.

So we refuse money from Washington lobbyists and
special-interest PACs. And rather than setting a goal of
millions of dollars, we're setting a goal of 450,000 people
owning a piece of this campaign by the June 30th deadline.

This report will serve as the definitive record of who was
there to build this campaign from the very start, and you
should be part of it. Please donate $5 or whatever
you can afford and help us hit our goal:

A lot of people out there are wondering whether this
campaign can inspire the kind of grassroots support that has
been the foundation of our success. A lot of people out
there are already saying we can't.

So we've got something to prove.

What happens between now and Thursday will shape the story
of how the 2012 race began.

Help write that story with a donation of
$5 or more here:

Thanks,
