Here is the latest release that I got from Messina...  (ugh)

Big news: In 10 days, President Obama is hitting the campaign trail.

On Saturday, May 5th, the President and First Lady Michelle Obama are holding the first two public rallies of the campaign in Columbus, Ohio, and Richmond, Virginia. He'll speak about how far we've come, and lay out the very real stakes in this election: Are we going to continue to move forward, rebuilding an economy that's meant to last, with a growing middle class and more Americans getting a fair shot? Or are we going to go back to the same failed policies that crashed our economy and left too many folks struggling to catch up? That's the choice.

These kinds of events are one of the hallmarks of this organization. Millions of people first came to know and support candidate Barack Obama in 2007 and 2008 when they met him at rallies and town halls in their communities. We're now entering the general election of his final campaign -- this day should be something pretty special.

The President would like two supporters from across the country and their guests to meet him backstage before he goes on at the first rally. Supporters like you are the core of this campaign -- so we're opening this up to anyone willing to sign up.

Right now, by signing up to receive important campaign updates on your phone, you will be automatically entered to join the President backstage.

What we're looking at right now is essentially the start of a general election. We've all but got our opponent. This is what we've been building for since we launched this campaign last April -- and we're ready to go.

I can tell you the President can't wait to get out there.

You really can't lose on this one: As part of our mobile community, you'll be sure to hear about events near you, when the President will be in your area, and other campaign news.

And signing up right now just might land you the chance to meet President Obama backstage before he starts firing folks up.

Want to be there with him? Sign up for text updates -- and be automatically entered for you and a guest to meet him backstage:

  • What we have in office is a mouth piece. Someone that found out that spewing disinformation can piss people off to get them on your side. This person has no agenda to get us on track, he does not know how because, he segregates himself like a king in his castle. His, do as I say, not as I do staff, feed him what he wants to hear. Americans need to recognize this as a failure, and what happens when you elect an armature that has barely the skills to be on a city council. He went from being a lawyer to senator and then President. The point here is that you have to do your time, bypassing everything he should have learned at lower level government. Your record is proof that we can make a mistake. Shame on us, we did not listen to those vetting him prior to his election. We the People say no to your change and lies, We the People say NO, to reelecting you.   

  • Love your graphic, TDA.

  • For starters:

    1.Pray first and foremost.

    2. Wear t-shirts that outline at least three major horrible things obama has done to America and walk around at events or just wear in your every day travels. Don't get into fights or conflicts with commies that might want to stop you from expressing yourself.

    3. Design posters/music/brochures that are catchy and simply stated about the horrors of obama and send them to as many people as possible and ask that they make copies and send them to others, as well.      

  • Makes me laught, how could we be going strong if, were still growing our debt. Plus how are ya gonna grow a strong middle class by distroying the rich, all u gonna be doing is replacing millionaries and Billionaries, with a government class. P.S wants ya drain the Rich 1% from all there money, is the middle class next then what?

  • So true. Campaigning is the only thing BO knows how to do. That goes for almost every elected official.

  • When did he stop campaigning.  He has campaigned on the tax payers money since stealing the office of president.
