Maybe dinner with the president and first lady isn’t enough to spark supporters to fork over a $15 chump change donation. Because in the campaign’s new bid to woo small donors, the president is even offering to butter up to the baby-sitters of the winner to the latest Dinner with Barack & Michelle effort.

In their latest email to supporters, the campaign offers this tantalizing note: “The flight’s free. We put you and a guest up in a hotel. The president has even been known to write a thank-you note for your babysitter.”
