Change in '08 IS possible. But it's not going to happen by itself, and it's certainly not going to happen without the support of young people.

That's why we're asking you, the younger generation, to take the following PLEDGE of ACTION today to help us prove to the world that young people can and WILL make a difference in this historic election.

ONE dollar. TWO hours. THREE friends.

1. Pledge ONE dollar for change. By adding your name to the donor list, your $1 donation to the Barack Obama campaign represents your promise to get your butt off the couch and take ACTION in this historic election.

2. Volunteer TWO Hours: Once you've donated your $1, we ask that you commit to volunteering just 2 hours to help usher in change in 08. Visit MyBarackObama.com where you can sign up to help in a variety of ways.

3. Tell THREE friends to do the same: Once you've pledged your DOLLAR for CHANGE, tell three friends that you're committed to change in 08 and ask them to make the same commitment using the "Tell A Friend" button above.

WHY IT IS SO IMPORTANT THAT WE ALL TAKE THIS PLEDGE

As this historic presidential election has become a statistical dead heat over the last month, now more than ever, it appears that victory for Barack Obama in 08 will hinge on how well his campaign can mobilize its millions of supporters into taking ACTION during the critical last six weeks of the election. Even if you've never been politically active before in your life, NOW is our time to show the world that America's young people will stand up for what we believe in and help usher in a new era of politics.

One dollar and two hours isn't a lot of money or time, but if we all band together, the results of our collective action can be monumental. So please join us today by giving up your spare change and a little bit of your spare time to ensure that the CHANGE that we all desperately hope for, actually becomes a reality this November.

Thank you for your support
