Ya te he contado que me escribo con Obama y su gente habitualmente. Bueno, más bien me escribe él a mi y a más de quince millones de ciudadanos. Pero lo hace él personalmente o su equipo. Es alucinante que yo tenga más información (por no hacer nada más que darme de alta en su base de datos), que de mi propio Gobierno, del que jamás recibí nada, ni un argumento, ni un agradecimiento…nada.

Lo último es este correo de gratitud por la aprobación de la Reforma del  Sistema de Salud, que el presidente define como histórico.

Curioso también el uso de las palabras, la estrategia, de siempre. El «cambio en el que creemos» y el «yes, we can».

Luis —For the first time in our nation’s history, Congress has passed comprehensive health care reform. America waited a hundred years and fought for decades to reach this moment. Tonight, thanks to you, we are finally here.Consider the staggering scope of what you have just accomplished: Because of you, every American will finally be guaranteed high quality, affordable health care coverage. Every American will be covered under the toughest patient protections in history. Arbitrary premium hikes, insurance cancellations, and discrimination against pre-existing conditions will now be gone forever. And we’ll finally start reducing the cost of care — creating millions of jobs, preventing families and businesses from plunging into bankruptcy, and removing over a trillion dollars of debt from the backs of our children. But the victory that matters most tonight goes beyond the laws and far past the numbers. It is the peace of mind enjoyed by every American, no longer one injury or illness away from catastrophe. It is the workers and entrepreneurs who are now freed to pursue their slice of the American dream without fear of losing coverage or facing a crippling bill. And it is the immeasurable joy of families in every part of this great nation, living happier, healthier lives together because they can finally receive the vital care they need. This is what change looks like. My gratitude tonight is profound. I am thankful for those in past generations whose heroic efforts brought this great goal within reach for our times. I am thankful for the members of Congress whose months of effort and brave votes made it possible to take this final step. But most of all, I am thankful for you. This day is not the end of this journey. Much hard work remains, and we have a solemn responsibility to do it right. But we can face that work together with the confidence of those who have moved mountains. Our journey began three years ago, driven by a shared belief that fundamental change is indeed still possible. We have worked hard together every day since to deliver on that belief. We have shared moments of tremendous hope, and we’ve faced setbacks and doubt. We have all been forced to ask if our politics had simply become too polarized and too short-sighted to meet the pressing challenges of our time. This struggle became a test of whether the American people could still rally together when the cause was right — and actually create the change we believe in. Tonight, thanks to your mighty efforts, the answer is indisputable: Yes we can. Thank you, President Barack Obama   Â

Por si fuera poco, viene luego nuestro admirado David Plouffe para animarnos a firmar la nueva Ley con el propio presidente de los Estados Unidos. No me extraña que los republicanos estén de los nervios.

Luis — President Barack Obama will soon sign comprehensive health care reform into law. A century-long fight will finally be won. As the President wrote last night, it was you who made this improbable victory possible. It was volunteers knocking on doors, talking to neighbors, and proving once again that Americans, standing together, can change the course of a nation. Supporters like us now have a chance to add our names as «Co-signers» of this historic legislation — adding our names next to President Obama’s to show our pride in helping to bring about this great achievement. Organizing for America will establish a permanent archive with all the signatures, so that generations to come will have a record of those who stood together in this moment and won this fight for our future. And I will personally present all the names we collect to the President. Will you add your name? This is the most significant domestic achievement in decades. And this movement of Americans, committed to improving their country, made it possible. We turned out for that first cold morning in Springfield, for the canvasses in New Hampshire, for the phone banks in Iowa. We kept fighting when no one gave us a chance and the cynics told us we were clinging to a false hope. We organized for health reform. We spread the facts on doorsteps, in town halls, and through millions of conversations. Your voice rang through the halls of Congress and filled the pages of local newspapers. It took many months and tremendous resolve, but we built a national network of support so strong that when the deceptive attack ads choked the airwaves and the pundits declared our effort defeated — we had what it took to fight our way back. And we won: the toughest insurance regulations in history, affordable coverage for 32 million without it, relief from skyrocketing costs for small business owners and from rising deficits for our children. That’s the story of how change really happens. And now, hundreds of millions will have better lives because of it. It’s rare to be part of something so meaningful that will help change the course of history. But you are. Please consider adding your name as co-signer today to commemorate your efforts: http://my.barackobama.com/Cosign Thank you, David Plouffe

Gracias a ti, Barack Obama, por cambiar la manera de comunicar desde la política. Admirable.
