John --

Yesterday, I had the honor of introducing Virginia Governor Tim Kaine as the
next Chairman of the Democratic National Committee.

We're in a strong position to build the Democratic Party, renew our
commitment to the principles we share, and continue the outstanding work of
Chairman Howard Dean.

Among his many achievements, Governor Dean launched a strategy to reach out
to Americans in all 50 states -- north, south, east and west.  This 50-state
strategy helped Democrats compete in states where we hadn't in years,
including states like Virginia.

Governor Kaine has seen the power of the 50-state strategy firsthand, and
under his leadership, Democrats will continue to organize and compete in
every corner of our country.

Share your question for incoming Democratic National Committee Chairman Tim
Kaine -- he'll answer as many as possible in a video on Democrats.org.

Tim is the ideal leader to grow and strengthen this party -- not by
appealing to our divisions, but by appealing to our common hopes; not by
pursuing policies that advance a specific dogma, but by pursuing policies
that work for ordinary people.

As Governor of Virginia, Tim was known for his intelligence, integrity, and
strong economic leadership.

He has a record of putting public service above partisanship, and he knows
that reaching across party lines is the way to achieve progress for all
Americans.

Over the next few days, you'll have a unique opportunity to get to know
Governor Kaine.  You can submit a question online, and he'll answer as many
as possible in a special video next week.

The success of our party in the years ahead depends on strong leadership,
but it also depends on a committed membership determined to bring change.

Thank you for your hard work and please join me in welcoming Chairman Tim
Kaine,

Barack
