RE: BEYOND UNITY
After a hard-fought and historic campaign this spring,
the Democratic Party continues to come together behind Barack Obama to work for
victory in November. The joint
appearance by Barack and Sen. Hillary Clinton in Unity, NH, is only the first
of many events to come.
These
events will demonstrate how committed all Democrats are -- regardless of which
candidate they might have supported during the primaries and caucuses -- to bringing about the change America so
desperately needs.
The
schedule below is offered for your guidance; it is not final. Times and formats may be adjusted, and
other events may be added as the campaign progresses, depending on strategic
considerations and the availability of the various principals.
One
thing we’re sure of, though: After
Unity, there will still be plenty of unity.
Wednesday,
July 2: Barack and Sen. Clinton to appear together at a rally
in New Harmony, IN. Sen. Clinton
to repeat her commitment to “give 110 percent” to make sure Barack is elected
the next president of the United States.
Friday,
July 4: Barack and Sen. Clinton to speak at an Independence
Day service in Alliance, OH.

hall”-style meeting in Strain, MO.
