Obama campaign responds to Republican attacks on ordinary Americans

Why would the Republicans spend a whole night of their convention attacking ordinary people?

With the nation watching, the Republicans mocked, dismissed, and actually laughed out loud at Americans who engage in community service and organizing.

What you didn't hear from the Republicans at their convention is a single new idea about how to make the healthcare system work, get our economy moving for the middle class, or improve education.

Just attacks -- on me, and on you.

But what the McCain attack squad doesn't understand is that people like you -- who devote part of their busy lives to organizing and building their communities -- have the power to change this country.

With your help, that's exactly what we're going to do.

Our convention was different. We gave the stage to everyday Americans who hunger for change and stepped up to make phone calls, knock on doors, and raise money in small amounts in their communities. You may have missed it, but we also showed the country a video with the faces and voices of those organizers, volunteers, and donors from every corner of the country.

At the Republican convention, John McCain's attack squad demeaned the work of Americans all across the country who engage in community service and organizing.

We created this video to share with you some of the faces and voices of people like you who are building this powerful grassroots movement from the bottom up.

Let's show John McCain and the Republicans that their attacks won't stop committed Americans from working for positive change.

Thank you,

Barack
