To break the tension, right before he went out on stage I leaned in close and said to my husband: "Just don't screw it up, buddy."
We laughed. And then Barack brought the house down.This year, the house is going to be a lot bigger. More than 75,000 people will be in Denver to be part of this important moment, and I want to tell you about an opportunity to join Barack backstage before his acceptance speech.
Ten supporters who make a donation in any amount by midnight this Thursday, July 31, will be selected to fly to Denver, spend a couple of nights in a hotel, participate in the convention, and go Backstage with Barack. Each supporter who is selected will also get to bring a guest along to share the experience.
If you make a contribution of $5 or more today and you could have your own Backstage with Barack story to tell. Barack's speech at the convention will be a culmination of the unlikely journey that has brought all of us so far over the past 17 months.
He will call on us to come together and work for change - not just to win this election, but to make things better for all Americans. Seeing it in person will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I'm excited about being there and I hope you are too.
