From ActBlue:

This November the stakes are higher than people want to admit. Yes, it's about the White House. Yes, it's about Congress. But beneath all that it's about how we run this country, not just who runs it.

At ActBlue, we've got simple answers to those questions: for the people, and by them. When you make a $15 recurring contribution to ActBlue, you're putting your money on a promise as old as this country--that the American people should have a powerful voice in their politics.

But there's another game in town, one that's just as old. Its players say, "sure, the people should have a voice." Then they say, "let me tell you who's a person." And finally: "this is what counts as a voice."

This is the long American fight, a battle that extends from the Age of Enlightenment to the Age of the Internet. Mitt Romney and the Republicans have picked their side. We've picked the other one, the one you don't need a law degree to understand:

Real people, real choices, real voices.

From all of us at ActBlue, thanks.
