(via kerry's email list--i just got this)
Hello, I wanted to make sure you had a chance to see this message from my friend Al Gore. It's incredibly important that we all do what we can this Tuesday, so volunteer if you possibly can, and pass this email on to anyone you think might be able to help. Thanks, John Kerry
Dear XXX,
By the narrowest of margins, we lost our chance to elect John Kerry president in 2004 and cut short the disastrous course of the past 4 years.
In 2000 and 2004, just a small difference in voter turnout would have made the difference. This time around, that difference could be you.
That's why I'm asking you to consider taking the day off to volunteer on Election Day -- Tuesday, November 4th -- to help carry Barack Obama to victory.
I know that this isn't possible for everyone, but if you can, I'd like for you to sign up to get out the vote on Election Day so that we can finally bring the change this country needs.
With so much at stake, your phone calls or door knocking could be the difference between setting our country back on the right path or another four years of dangerously irresponsible policies.
The passion and enthusiasm of Barack's movement for change is so exciting, and so important. But it will only count if we turn that passion into votes on Election Day.
And as strong as we are right now, it could still come down to a few votes in one or two battleground states.
It's up to each of us, right now, to commit to doing everything we can.
We're hoping you are able to give one day. You can help make history in this election, please go to

Al Gore
