MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- A previously undecided superdelegate from Wisconsin is endorsing Illinois Sen. Barack Obama.

College student Awais Khaleel announced his decision in a video posted on YouTube. Khaleel did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment Wednesday.

The 23-year-old Khaleel had posted another YouTube video in which he solicited comments from college students about who he should back. In the new video, Khaleel says thousands of e-mails and messages came in and Obama was the overwhelming favorite.

He says Obama has included young people in his coalition and spoken to issues they care about.

Khaleel is a University of Wisconsin-Madison student. He appears in the video with College Democrats president Lauren Wolfe.
