SHOW HILLARY YOUR SUPPORT!!!
http://www.hillaryresponders.com/18million“Although we weren’t able to shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time, thanks to you, it’s got about 18 million cracks in it,” – Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton – June 7, 2008
As Democrats head to their National Convention, we wanted to take this opportunity to say “thank you” for being an important member of the Hillary Rapid Responders Team. Your loyalty to Senator Clinton, volunteer efforts, and hard work has not gone unnoticed. We present this amazing video dedicated to you and the other 18 million Hillary Clinton supporters.

We need the people who represent the 18 million cracks to come together and help Senator Clinton retire her campaign debt. Let’s continue to stand with Senator Clinton.
We are asking that you take a moment of out your busy day to send in $5 or $10. Together, we can erase the campaign’s debt. [emphasis added]
As Senator Clinton says “Aim High, Work Hard, and Care Deeply for what you believe in”. NEVER QUIT!
* 18 million cracks representing Americans who spoke in solidarity that Hillary Rodham Clinton was the best choice to lead America into a brighter future.
* 18 million cracks representing Americans who wanted universal healthcare, a stonger and better economy, and a safer America to raise their children.
* 18 million cracks representing Americans that looked beyond the biases and barriers to vote for a woman with the potential to build an America that respects and embraces the potential of every last one of us.
