Obama: When I think back to a year ago, I remember talking to some people, who would say, this election doesn't matter all that much. That however the next president ended up being, it wasn't going to matter to them. If nothing else, the last nine months should have cured us of that idea. Because the stakes are now clear. We do not need to speculate about the dangers to our democracy. We do not need to wonder about whether vulnerable people will be hurt, or ask ourselves how much meaner our culture needs to become. We witnessed it. Elections do matter. And they matter for you.

"We spend 90% of the media discourse on the 37,000. How much more could we achieve if we put that effort into the 4.5 million?"
Well said that man 👏
