  We present a measurement of R_B, the ratio of the branching fraction for the
rare decay D0 -> K+ pi- to that for the Cabibbo-favored decay D0 -> K- pi+.
Charge conjugate decays are implicitly included. A signal of 2005 +/- 104
events for the decay D0 -> K+ pi- is obtained using the CDF II detector at the
Fermilab Tevatron collider. The data set corresponds to an integrated
luminosity of 0.35 1/fb produced in p-bar/p collisions at sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV.
Assuming no mixing, we find R_B = [ 4.05 +/- 0.21 (stat) +/- 0.11 (syst) ] x
10(-3). This measurement is consistent with the world average, and comparable
in accuracy with the best measurements from other experiments.
