Dear Friend, Senator Barack Obama will be in Austin next Friday, February 23, 2007 for his very first presidential campaign rally in Texas. It's a rally we hope will build on the tremendous grassroots strength this campaign showed in its very first week, as Obama was met by thousands of supporters in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Illinois. Now it's your chance to show your commitment to transforming this nation and changing politics in this country. Please join us (NOTE: New Location): 2:00 P.M. at Auditorium Shores, located at Riverside and South First on the south bank of the Town Lake. (Gates open at 12:30pm) In announcing his candidacy, Senator Obama said this campaign can't only be about him. He said, "It must be about us - it must be about what we can do together. This campaign must be the occasion, the vehicle of your hopes and your dreams." The event is free and open to the public.  Please RSVP by clicking here. Once you've done that, you will recieve an e-ticket in your email that you should print and bring with you to the event. http://action.barackobama.com/page/s/austinvid Thank you! Obama for America

Thanks to the University Democrats and the African American Culture Committee for hosting Sen. Obama in Texas.

The ticket requests quickly outgrew Gregory Gym's 5,000 person capacity, and lots of students who wanted to see Obama couldn't get tickets.

So we've moved to a bigger venue to handle the overwhelming demand. In order to clear up any confusion, we've also merged the University Democrat ticketing system into the national campaign's ticketing site.

Auditorium Shores has free wireless internet access, so bring your laptops on Friday. You'll have opportunities to donate online to Obama, live-blog from the rally and sign up for exciting volunteer opportunities.

Thanks to everyone for your patience. We did not anticpate this overwhelming demand for tickets, but we've made adjustements so that as many people as possible can see Sen. Obama.

Special thanks to the City of Austin and Capital Sports and Entertainment for setting up a concert-style rally that can hold 10,000 people. With less than a week to prepare, it's a truly impressive effort.

Everyone go to the Wall Street Journal On Line and search for a article called "The Clintons' Terror Pardons" This article is shocking and goes to the heart of the ethics that the Clintons have. E-Mail the link to every one you know in Texas. It has changed a lot of minds among my friends who have read it. Very powerful stuff.

Hillary's White House Experiance:
It should be obvious to most that there was a lot going on in the Oval Office that Hillary knew nothing about.
