The Stakeholder
A Message From Bill Clinton
Former President Bill Clinton sent the following message to DCCC supporters:Dear Friend,
Thanks to you, 2009 is going to be an amazing year of progress for America. I know we will all feel a sense of pride and achievement as we watch the new Congress get sworn in and get to work with President Obama.
I'm so proud of the way Hillary poured herself heart and soul into helping Barack Obama and so many other Democratic candidates last year.
And, like you, I'm looking forward to all the change and progress that those victories will lead to in the weeks and months ahead.
As historic as 2008 may have been, there is no time to rest. Now is the time to keep our momentum going by showing the new Congress that we're here to support them in 2009 right from the very beginning.
Contribute $5, $10, or more today to provide essential early support to translate the promise of 2008 into progress in 2009.
The reason we won so big last year is because House Democrats had the early support from people like you. That early strength we built together put our party on a trajectory for success, and we kept going!
With Barack Obama's inauguration fast approaching, we need to make the same powerful show of strength as the new Democratic Congress gets to work with the new Administration to solve the greatest challenges of our time.
Contribute $5, $10, or more today to provide essential early support to translate the promise of 2008 into progress in 2009.
All of us are anticipating what an emotionally powerful day January 20th is going to be. So many dreams will be fulfilled, so many barriers overcome, and so much history will be made. A bold new era of American leadership is about to begin. However, we shouldn't wait until Inauguration Day to get to work.
All the best,
Bill Clinton
P.S. January 20th is going to be a day like few others in the entire history of our nation. But it's going to take a strong show of early support to meet the deep and serious challenges that await in 2009. Contribute $5, $10, or more today to provide that essential early support and ensure fulfilling the promise of this moment.

This is a very overwhelming acceptance for President Obama by former President Bill Clinton. It is nice to hear that the former president is positively trusting that Obama will bring the country to change. Well Bush has his pension package that will cause him a very sufficient way of living after leaving the White House. The pension plan gets adjusted now and then for inflation, and certain things get picked out of it here and there. In 1997, the practice of lifetime Secret Service protection was shortened to ten years; so Bill Clinton will be the last to get lifetime protection, which is kind of convenient seeing as he passed the bill. George Bush will be getting a $191,000 a year pension for life, and he has two enormous homes in Texas where he will retire. It seems he won’t need payday loans ever again. To date, a few presidents have refused salary, but none have refused pension. See more at the Personal Money Store payday loans money blog.
