Bill Clinton: Here’s where we come in, Naresh

I know what Hillary is all about
Naresh —
Hillary and I have been married for over 40 years. Seeing her work up close is truly incredible — she’s committed to the task at hand, she’s always keeping the people she’s fighting for at the very front of her mind, and she’s one of the warmest people you could ever meet.
I realize not everybody gets to see the Hillary that we know, and that’s where you and I come in, Naresh. The people who love Hillary have got to do what we can to make sure everyone knows what she’s about.
Take that volunteer shift, talk to your friends, and chip in what you can, when you can. Because there are a lot of people to reach, and we have to do it fast.
Will you start now? Will you donate to help build this team a little bigger and get your official Team Hillary sticker?

Thank you,
Bill
Hillary needs you now more than ever — chip in $1 to join more than 1.5 million grassroots donors standing with her:
