re: Rock bottom

Friend -- This election comes down to one simple fact: We simply cannot afford to let Donald Trump and a Republican Congress take our country backwards. I know I don't have to remind you, but too many folks seem to be forgetting just exactly how bad things were eight years ago. Barack and I were sworn in during the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. The unemployment rate was nearing double digits, and too many hardworking folks struggled to put food on the table. Home ownership was out of reach for too many, and economic growth was at an all-time low. Under the policies proposed by a Republican-led Congress and signed into law by a Republican president, we nearly hit rock bottom. But because of the grit and determination of the American people -- and because of tough, unpopular decisions the President and I made with Democrats in Congress -- our economy has gone from crisis to recovery to the cusp of real resurgence. And we've done it by staying true to what truly makes America great. I like to say to folks: don't tell me what you value -- show me your budget, and I'll tell you what you value. Well, Trump and the GOP don't have a budget, but they do have a plan -- more tax cuts for the people who need them the least, and more cuts to programs that middle-class Americans rely on -- education, job training, and health care. These are the same ideas that got us into the mess in the first place, but Republicans are willing to risk it all again if they win back Congress and the White House this year. So we have to do everything we can to make sure we put Hillary in the White House and help Democrats take back control of Congress. Will you step up and pitch in $3 now so we can keep moving forward, and so we don't have to relive some of our worst economic days again?
