I want to make two things very clear to you: Over the course of the next two days, 20 Democratic candidates for President will take the stage in Miami.
But before all that happens, I want to make two things very clear to you:
First, I believe that the fact that we have such a large and diverse set of qualified candidates is evidence of our strength as a party. I would be proud to support any of the Democrats who will take the stage these next two nights.
Second, I want to make sure you know exactly what this campaign is fighting for.
This is what our campaign believes.
We believe in an inclusive, optimistic America. An America where all men and women are created equal. We believe in an America with no room for those who seek to demonize, divide, or marginalize the "other" -- whether based on another's race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or disability. We have no room in this America for bullies and cowards who look down on others to lift themselves up.
We believe in an America that's a beacon to the world. An America that stands for civil rights, human rights and a belief that all people should be treated with dignity. We aren't a country that separates families, or denies kids soap or a toothbrush. We don't just stand by and watch while a father and daughter drown coming to our shores seeking a better life.
We believe that violence against women should never be tolerated. That a woman's decisions about her body belong to her and her alone. We believe that our daughters and granddaughters deserve every opportunity afforded to our sons and grandsons.
We believe that climate change is real, that it threatens our health, our communities, our national security, and our economy -- and that it requires immediate action.
We believe that healthcare is a right, and nobody in this country should lose everything they've worked for just because they get sick.
We believe in speaking to people's hearts -- not their fears. We believe that, as Americans, we have a sacred obligation to listen and seek to understand one another. Even if we don't agree on every issue. Especially if we don't agree on every issue.
We believe in measuring progress by the dignity and respect afforded to more Americans. By the number of Americans who can get a decent job that pays a fair wage and protects their health and benefits. By whether or not more parents can send their kids to college. By whether or not parents can look their kids in the eye and tell them everything is going to be OK.
If that's the America you believe in, let me know by clicking here.
Remember: We are the United States of America.
I'll see you out there.

| We’ll be honest -- we’ll be asking for your help a lot this week: - At the end of the week, all of our numbers will be locked before they are made public.
- We need to raise $175,000 more to hit our goal.
- And if we fall short, everyone will know!
But if we pull it off, can you imagine the shock on Trump’s face when he learns we succeeded?
We know you can’t chip in every time. But if you can make a small donation today, it would be much appreciated. Use the buttons below: https://go.joebiden.com/Donate Thanks for your help,

Joe won't be on stage until tomorrow -- but attacks from a right-wing group called "Club for Growth" have already started on air in key early states. | The Democratic debates start tonight.
Joe won’t be on stage until tomorrow -- but attacks from a right-wing group called “Club for Growth” have already started to air in key early states.
Check out this excerpt from a recent article: "Club for Growth, whose stated top policy goals include reducing income tax rates, a full repeal of Obamacare and reducing the size of the federal government, will never back a Democrat for president. However, it is wading into the Democratic primary likely because Biden poses the greatest risk to Republican President Donald Trump’s reelection bid. Early national polling and surveys in important swing states have repeatedly shown Biden besting Trump in a hypothetical match up." - Reuters |

We need your help to fight back on this. And that starts by hitting our public fundraising goal and raising $195,000 more before Sunday.
Will you chip in before Joe takes the stage to make his pitch to the American people why he is the right person to take on Donald Trump? Together we can be louder than conservative special interests.
But we need to have the resources to fight back, and that starts with getting a surge of new donations before Joe takes the stage tomorrow night:
