Content: All three rows (<tr>) have both bgColor and inline-styled background attributes.
Both need to be changed for all three rows (<tr>) because some email clients use the inline-style background
and others use the bgColor attribute.
The first row (<tr>) serves as 'padding-top' because the padding-top style is not supported in all email clients.
To change the 'padding-top' size, you change the line-height.
The third row (<tr>) serves as 'padding-bottom'. Follow the instructions laid out for the first row and apply them here as well.
Some notes...
1. Don't change padding from 0 to some other size in the td inline-style! It's necessary so as to not break the skin.
2. The align attribute is what sets the text-alignment. You don't need to add text-align to the inline-style.
3. As mentioned before, there are two background styles that need to change for all three rows <tr>.

I was there, an eyewitness to history. But even though I was 19, going into my junior year in college, I don’t remember much about the day. I drove from New York, heard the speakers, listened to the music, and of course there was the Big Speech. And I kept the button. It was sunny, hot even. The crowd was joyous. I was excited: this was a big deal. The DC cops were surly. They didn’t want it to be a big deal. The downtown merchants didn’t welcome us, small spenders that we were, and lunch-counter troublemakers. I should remember more, but my memory was never very good, and it wasn’t the computer age, not yet.</p><p>Fifty years from today an eyewitness to history could reconstruct what happened at the National Mall out of digital footprints: saved web searches, credit card receipts, keystroke loggers, EZ-Pass records, metrocard tickets, digital photos, CCTV footage, cell phone tower pings, NSA satellite data. There, that’s me, in that YouTube video, over by N38 53.36339 W77 3.0114.</p></span><br><br><a style="color:#808080" href="http://illinois.edu/blog/view/25/96540">read more</a> . <a style="color:#808080" href="https://illinois.edu/blog/unsubscribeSec/1/3599">unsubscribe</a><br>
