DALLAS (AP) - Thousands of supporters of Democrat Barack Obama packed Reunion Arena in Dallas today for a chance to rally with the presidential candidate.

One banner at the venue said: "Dallas For Change."

Obama has added Wisconsin and Hawaii to a primary season winning streak that now totals ten.

The Texas primary is March 4th.

Obama tomorrow night will debate Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton in Austin.

Obama last night spoke to a crowd of more than 16,000 people at a Houston rally.

The Illinois senator talked about making sure every child in America has the best education in the country.

Pat, you are SO wrong! Polling suggests about half of the white men voting in the demo primaries have voted for Obama. I personally know many white men who voted for him, and the color of his skin had nothing to do with it. Besides, his parentage is both black and white. Stop buying into the old Jim Crow BS that plagued this country since way back when. Welcome into the 21st century, and leave your prejudices behind. To do otherwise is to condemn yourself, your children, and your grandchildren to carrying a very old and merciless anchor.

Anonymous is right there is no way that a white man will vote for a black man. If Jesus came to the earth and asked the white man to vote for a black man or go to hell. I believe the white man would opt to burn in hell for the rest of his life. Sad but true.

Nothing against Ron Paul, but you guys are making him have a bad name with your ignorant comments about Obama. Obama is about as "American" as you can get. He represents more people than any other candidate simply because of who he is. He is not automatically going to solve all of the race problems in this country. He is not ONLY for black people (he is half white). He is not a terrorist. Animals are naturally afraid of what is different from them, but what separates humans is their ability to use their rational frontal lobe. Please take advantage of this feature.

What do you mean Obama won't be president? He has spanked the Clinton's all over America. And he will do the same to that adulter McCain! Texas will put Obama over the top! Long live King, Malcolm, and Obama!

Smarter in Ok, it's not Obama I'm worried about, it's the radical African-Americans that like to throw a victory in other people's faces as they did in the O.J. Simpson case. They're quiet about it now, but wait untill he's nominated or elected president.

Josh, what do you mean Obama is not even an American? His people have been here for hundreds of years. His family even owned slaves back in the day. He even has great grandparents buried in Center (Pontotoc County) Oklahoma and Okmulgee. What is wrong with you people? Why are you so racist? Why would Obama have any more allegiance to blacks than whites when he is half white and raised by whites?
