FW: Not very likely

Pacquiao --

I've been working for Barack Obama since he was State Senator Barack Obama -- and while so much has changed since then, so much about the President has remained the same.

He's always known that he wouldn't be where he is without the opportunities he had -- and he wants to make sure that young people across the country have those same chances, no matter where they're from, what they look like, or who they love.

That's why the Hope Institute -- a program we're running that will help some of the best and brightest young people from across the country get their start in public service -- is so important to him.

It's important to me, too -- and I hope it is to you as well.

Chip in $5 or more today to support this great project, and help strengthen the future of our party while giving young people a shot at fulfilling their dreams:

Subject: Not very likely

Pacquiao --

Across the country there are young people with great big, new ideas for our country's future who are not very likely to find their way into politics.

A store clerk in Toledo who has terrific, fresh ideas for clean energy policy, but can't afford an unpaid internship to work for his senator. A student body president in Las Vegas who watches C-SPAN religiously, but doesn't see anyone who looks like her on the House floor.

Young people like these being handed an instruction manual and shown how to succeed in shaping their country? That's not a very likely story.

But then, a skinny guy with a name that was hard for most people to pronounce getting elected president of the United States was also an unlikely story -- until you decided to make it happen.

Democrats are looking to make some exciting things happen, and I'm asking you to chip in $5 or more in support.

This summer, 40 young people from underrepresented communities across the country will be flown to Washington, D.C. for the Hope Institute -- a crash course in political organizing, where they'll get to hear from seasoned campaign veterans and public servants, and gain the tools to help write the next great chapter in our nation's history.

And Democrats are picking up the tab, because we believe that helping to cultivate the next generation of Democratic leaders is worth investing in -- and because sometimes the same old story won't do.

This is something that means a lot. I hope you'll support this important work.
