This team is shattering every expectation I ever could have imagined.

 

You took an underdog kid from the West Side of San Antonio who had a story to share -- and launched him into the top 10 contenders.

 

I now need 130,000 donors to make the next debates. That number is critical.

 

But I need you to know your contribution is so much more than a number to me.

 

It’s a chance to share my story with you and the country on the debate stage.

 

It’s an opportunity to show kids from every race, creed, and religion they can be President, too.

 

And it’s a resounding rejection of the special interests who want us to believe we need their big checks to do it.

 

We are gaining incredible momentum. That is undeniable.

 

I hope I can count on your help to reach the next donor threshold to keep this movement going strong.
