The background photo on Jindal’s Twitter feed shows him and his family posing with the Robertsons. To many in the political class, Jindal’s close alliance with a cast of goofy reality TV stars scans as pandering. But a senior adviser to the candidate pointed out that the show has been tremendously popular with the sort of religious conservatives who dominate the Iowa caucuses, and that Willie’s endorsement could be a real selling point....

"[O]ne Jindal adviser noted that their candidate has something none of his rivals have: the Duck Dynasty endorsement...."

I love that Jindal is a "joke" but Bernie Sanders is not. Hilarious.
Sorry to say that the Duck Dynasty crowd won't put Bobby over the top.
Louisiana is a fiscal mess and he is hated by even republicans in the deep red state....but, by all means, run!
Whether you're a libertarian Republican, a Religious Right Republican, a Moderate Republican, an establishment Republican, a foreign policy hawk Republican, or any combination of these, it seems you have at least a few candidates in the race who should appeal to you, and several more that should be acceptable to you. The problem for each of these candidates is that someone else in the race can fill the same role, and appeal to the same constituency, making each candidate sort of redundant.
On the plus side, it gives the party many plausible choices (though also some implausible ones). Compare that to the Dems and their coronation of an incompetent corrupt goon. Which party seems healthier?
Titus, you spend all your time either sucking dick, taking dicks up the ass that you have no time for any thought.
A cursory look at Jindall's record would educate you as to Jindall's record, which is great as opposed to oh, Barack Hussein Obama, the huge fat lesbian, or anybody else.
You think you're pithy, but you're just a typical sad faggot, of which good for you boy b
Jindal is more qualified for the Presidency than any Democrat currently running. And he's 4th among the Republicans. What does that tell you?
Remember when Sanders conducted an exorcism?
oh wait...
Bobby Jindal has no chance to win the nomination. He blew it six years ago giving the Republican response to the State of the Union. Moreover it's by no means certain that he'd carry his own state (except against Hillary Clinton).
@Brando, from here on in please say only nice things about Hillary Clinton. She's going to blow it, and it's better that she should blow it after securing her party's nomination rather than before, when there's a chance the Democrats could actually nominate someone fit to hold the office.
Reason? She doesn't trust any experts who aren't already part of her inner circle, and they're a pretty inept bunch. Remember the trip to Iowa in the Scooby van? Any reasonably competent campaign aide would have nudged her to put some money in the Chipotle tip jar, but not Huma Abedin. Who is, despite that, Clinton's most trusted campaign adviser.
Remember the mis-translated "reset" button? The State Department has some of best translators in the US on its payroll, but did Hillary use any of them? Apparently not. Why not? Because they hadn't sworn fealty to her and kissed her ring?
And now a stack of Emails suggests that Benghazi happened because Hillary Clinton chose to trust that ignorant jackass Sid Blumenthal's analysis of Libya over CIA her own State Department's analysts. Hey! What's 4 Americans dead against the word of Sid Blumenthal?
So Hillary Clinton will slip up regularly, to the point where it'll be obvious to the voting public that if she ever had it, she's lost it long since.
I love that Jindal is a "joke" but Bernie Sanders is not. Hilarious.
Yeah, why the hell is that?
That was 8 words machine, which is awfully close to your "Line of Exposed Ignorance".
I recommend scaling back significantly before the rhetorical equivalent of the Nimitz airwing shows up and "helps" you back into place.
I expect a lot of Democrats to attack Jindal instinctively: [whisper] He's colored, you know.
Better the Duck Dynasty than the Dodo Dynasty.
Any thoughts on the attacks on Jindal's authentic Indian identity, Prof? "There's not much Indian left in Jindal" said a professor, quoted in the Washington Post. Is such overtly racialist/racist statements, I dunno, ugly?
Joe Biden's tribe will not consider Jindal to be authentically Indian until he opens a convenience store and sells David Lee Roth a bottle of anything and a glazed donut. TO GO!!!
"@Brando, from here on in please say only nice things about Hillary Clinton. She's going to blow it, and it's better that she should blow it after securing her party's nomination rather than before, when there's a chance the Democrats could actually nominate someone fit to hold the office."
Bad a candidate as I think she is, my worry is that the Dems have some natural advantages in presidential elections. And while the GOP has some decent choices, they also have a history of kneecapping their own nominees so that many voters end up in the Dem camp. Letting the Clintons get back into power is simply too great a risk.
Jindal is not an eligible natural born Citizen. He was born to resident alien parents in Louisiana. A2S1C5 requires that only those born in the US of US Citizen parents shall be eligible.
"The Constitution does not in words say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners". Minor v. Happersett, 88 US 162, 167 (1875)
There are now 3 "R Team" ineligible candidates. Do you think that's an accident? All politicians are the same in their thirst for power, and Rubio, Cruz and Jindal are helping the Usurper Hussein Obama, and protecting his "legacy" just as Boehner and McConnell are committing treason in helping Obama sell America out in the TPP. All have committed treason in allowing the Usurper into the White House, and now seek to protect that treason. What is the penalty?
That some on the left are attacking Jindal for stupid reasons (i.e., that he's not "Indian" enough) does not mean that Jindal is a good candidate or worthy of support. Actual conservatives should laugh at him. He has been a terrible governor in the state of Louisiana. His campaign will use the stupid attacks to generate sympathy and support, because his actual record, when looked at objectively (and not through his spin) has been terrible.
Step 1: Hit the gym.
