New Edwards E-mail: Universal Healthcare Video

[PresidentObama]

Dear Jordon,

You don't need me to tell you that winning the Iowa caucuses is the first step to winning the presidency.

Iowans—like all Americans—are seriously concerned about health care. And John is the only candidate in the race with a detailed plan to guarantee true universal health care while cutting everyone's costs.

But you know the media; candidate food fights get way more attention than policy proposals. So we've got an ambitious plan to go straight to Iowa voters—but we need your help to pull it off.

We've made a powerful new video of John discussing his plan for universal health care. And this week, we're mailing the Health Care DVD to every single one of the 70,000 families that participate in the Iowa caucus.

Can you chip in to help cover the costs? $50 dollars will cover the cost of producing and shipping the DVD to 15 Iowa households. $100 dollars will get our health care video to 30 crucial households. Will you help leave no caucus-goer behind?

It's no wonder Iowans are concerned about health care:

47 million Americans have no health insurance at all—265,000 of them in Iowa alone.
Millions more know their families are just one pink slip or job change away from losing coverage. And for those lucky enough to have insurance, premiums, deductibles and other expenses are spiraling out of control.
John is the only candidate with a real plan to change all of this. Under John's plan, every American would have guaranteed health coverage—no matter what. And for people who already have insurance, John's plan will cut the cost of health care. But to make his plan a reality, we need your help to spread the word.

Getting specific about the issues that matter isn't just an effective way to win the election; it's the right way to change the country. By reaching out directly to key voters on this crucial issue, you're helping to build a groundswell of support strong enough to put John Edwards in the White House and make quality health care a reality for every American.

Remember, $25 reaches 7 households. $100 covers getting the video in front of 30 crucial families. And when caucus night comes, the Iowans you help us reach today could well make all the difference.

Thank you,

Good way to get the message to the voters, shipping out videos. And smart on the Edwards campaign trying to raise money to cover the cost so that they don't have a bill to pay afterwards. John Edwards is running a great campaign!!
