A Personalized Message from CNNBC Video




I got this wild message from those tireless people at MoveOn.org...maybe you've gotten it already yourself. I think this takes personalized marketing to the limit. It's a fascinating sensation to watch it: your own 1.5 minutes of simulated fame. And it pretty much made me decide to vote early, next Monday. I promise!!

Click on the link, watch the video, and customize to send along to your friends.

(It's definitely worth a trip to click on that link, I'm telling you!)

Dear Ellen,
Oversleeping. Getting the car fixed. Having to pick up the second-cousin's stepkids on the other side of town. These are just a few of the reasons millions of Americans won't vote on November 4th.

It's not like they hate voting. They want to do it. They know they should. And mostly, they intend to. But some of your friends won't get around to actually voting because they haven't been reminded vividly enough.

That's why we developed this funny, scary video. It shows people what it might look like if we lose the election by a single vote: theirs.

Here's a version we prepared for you. You're in it—seriously, you, Ellen. Check it out—and if you like it, send it to your friends:

Watch it: http://www.moveon.org/r?r=31274&nid=275coW.A_yFjoKS7sQoT.jI4MDkx&id=14591-9332476-z165Uyx&t=3

Thanks for all you do.

–Peter, Joan, Carrie, Daniel and the rest of the team
