Friend --
While we wait for results from a close race in Michigan, I wanted to take a moment to say thank you. Today's victory in Mississippi -- and everything else we've accomplished -- is because of you.
I am so grateful to the more than 900,000 people who've donated and contributed to our success so far.
They're people like Ernesto, a college student from Ohio, and Liza, a mom from Texas whose child has Down syndrome -- people who share our belief that when we lift each other up instead of tearing each other down, we can do incredible things.
The forces trying to drive us apart are strong.
But I believe our campaign and our country should be about breaking barriers and building on what made America great in the first place.
America's diversity is a strength, not a weakness. Trying to divide this country between "us" and "them" is simply wrong. Our mission is to do as much good as we can for the most people we can -- we have to open our hearts to helping others.
That's the kind of spirit that drives this campaign, and it's what will take us all the way to the White House.
Spirit!
I love what she said about diversity.
