If I understood well, you're looking for eval() function. You use it this way:
eval("1 + 4") # => 5
In your case:
root.message.Text = eval(root.message.Text)
eval() is one of the built-in python functions. You can read about
rest of them on
http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/lib/built-in-funcs.html
hope that answers your question.
