We've had some good news
recently about the presidential race. Polls are showing Obama leading in
several key swing-states. Americans reacted swiftly to the frightening prospect
of Mitt Romney winning the election with the help of a few billionaires writing
$10 million checks. Over 1 million of us
gave to Obama's campaign in August alone.
We made it clear that we
will not sit by and watch our country be bought by the same people who brought
us the financial crash in 2008. Here in Switzerland, hundreds of Americans
donated to the Obama campaign during the two recent fundraisers held in Zurich
and Geneva. But we need to give more.
Please donate $100 or more today.
As we reach the final
stretch, we're inviting the American community to join us for a cocktail reception
in Montreux on Friday September 28th in a private home. The
requested contribution is $100 per person, and contributions in higher amounts
are very much welcome and encouraged. Please join a lively and enthusiastic
group of like-minded American compatriots at what promises to be a memorable
evening with stunning views of Lac Leman. Charles Adams, Chairman of Americans
Abroad for Obama and member of the National Finance Committee of the Obama
Campaign, will share the inside scoop from the campaign and the Democratic
National Convention in Charlotte.
When you donate $100 or more, kindly bear in mind
that only U.S. citizens and Green Card holders may contribute to the Obama
Victory Fund. For Americans residing abroad, passport information must be
submitted with the RSVP if you are paying with a non-U.S. credit card. Non-U.S.
spouses, partners and guests are more than welcome to attend, provided that
it is the U.S. citizen who makes the contribution on their behalf. Please feel
free to forward this invitation to American friends and acquaintances who
might like to attend.
Thank you
in advance for your generous support in helping re-elect President Obama.
