KEY BLOCK----- See below. Erred on what list to send to. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Matt Ortega <[email protected]> Date: Sun, Apr 12, 2015 at 9:25 PM Subject: DRAFT: Hillary's in and so are the reviews To: Communications Team <[email protected]>, Amanda Renteria < [email protected]> Hey guys -- following up on comms' round up of what the press is saying just a few minutes ago, I'm put together an email for progressives with a bit of what the campaign has produced today. This first email would be lengthy as it includes launch reactions from progressives and the media as well as a few really great moments from Launch Day and the announcement email appended to the bottom. I wanted to share with you first and get your feedback. Anything I am missing? Should cut? Let me know. ## Hello all -- What a day! In case you missed it, Hillary Clinton announced her candidacy for President of the United States with a wonderful video that stresses where our focus will be: fighting for everyday Americans and for every vote. Watch the video below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uY7gLZDmn4 In the video, a diverse array of everyday Americans speak of their futures -- launching a family business, getting married, starting a family. Hillary concludes the video with an invitation to join her on this new journey. A groom-to-be featured in the video later tweeted an invitation of his own to Hillary: @JaredMilrad <https://twitter.com/JaredMilrad/status/587365957745643520> Thanks for inviting us to your big day @HillaryClinton. We're returning the favor & inviting you to ours. #wedding The response to the announcement has been incredible. As of 8:30pm tonight: Hillary's announcement on Twitter <https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/587336319321407488>: 83,674 retweets, 76,770 favorites, and viewed over 3 million times in a single hour, per Twitter <https://twitter.com/aseitzwald/status/587361948750196736> .

Today, for so many families, the path to lasting prosperity is unclear. Families have fought their way back from tough economic times. But it's not enough -- not when the average CEO makes about 300 times what the average worker makes. Everyday Americans need a champion, and I want to be that champion. I've spent my entire life standing up for women, children, families, and anyone who needed a little help along the way. That's what this campaign will be about, and that's what I'll do every single day as your president. It's time for us to fight for people like my dad, who ran a small business and committed himself to building a better life for his family. People like my mom, who relied on the kindness of others to get through a tough childhood -- and like my baby granddaughter, who deserves to grow up in a country where every single kid has the opportunity to live up to her or his potential. This won't be easy. And I won't take anything for granted. I'm going to work my heart out to earn every single vote, because I know it's your time. *Watch our video -- then add your name to let me know you're with me:* *https://www.hillaryclinton.com/running <http://links.hillaryclinton.com/ctt?kn=5&ms=MjI0NjcwMjYS1&r=MTA3MTkyMzUzMzY4S0&b=0&j=NTQxMjU4MDE5S0&mt=1&rt=0>* Thanks.
