Thanks for pointing this out, I'll get the docs updated. We strongly encourage you to use a client library to make SOAP calls, very few developers take this route. Making raw requests like this will result in numerous headaches (such as this) trying to craft the appropriate SOAP. We have plenty of code examples showing how to do numerous actions with the API. For example, adding campaigns in java: https://code.google.com/p/google-api-ads-java/source/browse/examples/adwords_axis/src/main/java/adwords/axis/v201209/basicoperations/AddCampaigns.java
