Hillary, Hamilton, and you

Pitch in $10 or more today to help elect Democrats this November -- and you'll be automatically entered for a chance to see Hamilton on Broadway with Hillary Clinton! I'M IN Hey -- There is a video I've watched probably a hundred times that I think is the best illustration of how the musical Hamilton became the phenomenon it is today. Composer-lyricist-star-genius Lin-Manuel Miranda is at a White House Poetry Jam. He's young, scrappy -- and nervous. He announces he's working on "a concept album about the life of someone I think embodies hip-hop -- Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton." The First Lady laughs, President Obama cracks a skeptical smile. It sounds like an idea that has no business working. But once Lin starts rapping, people stop laughing -- because it's just that good. And Lin has been passionately smashin' every expectation and then some since that night in 2009. As a theater kid who has spent the better part of my life trying to convince people that musicals are cool, it's still kind of hard to process that an original Broadway cast recording is currently the #1 rap album in America. But its popularity isn't all that surprising because the show is for and about all of us -- who we were, who we are, and who we aspire to be as a country. I was lucky enough to see Hamilton last year when it was still off-Broadway at the Public Theater. I sat in the front row with about 300 other people around me and knew I was part of something special. It's a cool feeling to have -- and it's a feeling I have again right now as we're getting ready to elect Hillary Clinton our next President of the United States. And you have a chance to be part of this, too -- if you pitch in $10 or more right now, not only will you be part of history as we elect our first woman president and give her a Democratic Congress, you'll also be automatically entered for a chance to go see Hamilton -- and meet Hillary Clinton!
