Senator Barack Obama personally thanked Armenians for Obama for its
far-reaching grassroots efforts and encouraged the growing nationwide
Armenian American movement in support of the Obama-Biden ticket to
escalate its voter outreach in the final days before the November
4th election.
In a letter sent today to Armenians for Obama, Senator Obama personally
expressed his thanks to the voter outreach organization, noting
that, from the beginning Armenians for Obama has "been one of those
grassroots groups - whether its canvassing in Nevada and Virginia or
calling from home in California and New York. I know your hard work
has made a difference in the past two years, and I know it's going
to make the difference in these last few days."
Welcoming Senator Obama's warm words of appreciation, Ibranossian said,
"On behalf of all our Armenians for Obama activists around the country,
I want to thank Senator Obama for his sincere expression of gratitude
to our grassroots organization and community. We are inspired by
his kind words to our team and take from them an added measure of
energy and devotion, in these last days, to engage in fieldwork, media
outreach, and get-out-the-vote efforts, to do our part to ensure that
Senator Obama wins a decisive victory on November 4th."
Separately, the campaign has issued a campaign certificate,
bearing the Armenians for Obama logo, in which the Armenian
American National Leadership Committee officially endorses the
Obama-Biden ticket. Serving on this select Leadership Committee are
U.S. Representatives Anna Eshoo, Jackie Speier, and Adam Schiff,
California Assemblyman Paul Krekorian, and former South Carolina
State Democratic Chairman Richard Harpootlian.
The full text of Senator Obama's letter is provided below:
Dear Friends, I want to thank you for all you're doing to build our
movement for change.
Grassroots groups have seized on the desire of ordinary Americans to
take back our country, and organized this energy and enthusiasm into a
strong, disciplined campaign. You've taken responsibility for reaching
out to your neighbors and fellow citizens to make the case for change.
>From the beginning, Armenian Americans for Obama has been one of those
grassroots groups - whether it's canvassing in Nevada and Virginia or
calling from home in California and New York. I know that your hard
work has made a difference in the past two years, and I know it's
going to make the difference in these last few days. Let me be clear:
we're not there yet.
This race will tighten as we get closer to the end. And the difference
between the change we seek and more of the same is you.
We have asked a lot from our supporters, and you have taken ownership
of our movement, because you know that "change happens from the
bottom-up" is not just a slogan - it is the story of this campaign. At
every test, you have succeeded. With the final test just a few days
away, I have no doubt that you will rise to the occasion again. And
together we will succeed, and together, we will change America."
