Jindal is far more qualified than Obama, having had high level jobs in Louisiana since his early 20s.

He has quite a record, far more than Clinton or Obama. He is not just a "dark" face, but has more sense at his young age than any of the elder Democrats such as Pelosi, Kennedy, Durban, Biden, etc.

Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence at the age of 33. There are exceptional men who are quite capable at an early age

We'd be fortunate to have Jindal as a VP.

Honestly I have NEVER noticed her NOT being a conservative, in all the many years I have watched her in the House debates.

I think she was in a immigration policy battle with her opponent in New Mexico, maybe she was defeated on not being tough enough?

Her ACU rating is 80 Lifetime, in 05 it was 75, in 06 it was 67. Her opponent had all 90s.

OK, I'm convinced.

Heather Wilson for Vice President.

You’re referring to him as “Scarface”? That is so tacky.

How about posting your picture here on Free Republic so we can see how gorgeous you are?

Oh, I agree about Jindal. He gets us fired up when he speaks! He is good. But, don’t know about his management experience.

Being more experienced that Obama isn’t hard. I am more experienced than Obama, and I know I couldn’t be President!

I am now a Heather Wilson fan! She is great.

Military experience when we need it. Smart. Tough. She seems very perfect. She seems like she would make a great President some day.

He’s 37, a former congressman and has more experience than B. Hussein Osama-Obama.

Listen, I have been trying to find a better version of the video. And I can’t. I would like to get the word out, and send it on to McCain. I don’t know who he has working for him, but I don’t like the choices they have come up with.

Since you brought her up, how bout posting a Vanity post, “Heather Wilson for Vice President”?

Maybe that will help.

LOL, sorry unfortunately I have never taken the time to learn to post articles! (I really must learn, its embarrassing after all these years)

BUT, I did send the link to that video to National Review Online’s editor, Kathy Lopez, we have exchanged emails before.

Tomorrow I will do so with other Republican sites and bloggers that I know.

She is rarely, if ever, on TV, so I wonder if she was auditioning tonight?

some conservatives want to forget their principles and try to “me too” the democrats when they call for style over substance. We’re not for what is best for the MTV crowd or someone who gives a great speech. We’re for what is best for America.

I would LOVE a McCain/Clinton ticket.

That would be fabulous for the larger cause of American Political Realignment.

What about Tom McClintock? As racist as Obama is being perceived, McCain and the Republicans could get away with two white guys on the ticket.

“Jindal is 36 years old - barely 1 year over the Constitutional requirement to be president.”

Gov. Jindal is a lot less of a rookie than Sen. Obama, despite the fact that he is younger.

Who Sen. McCain picks for running mate will decide if I even vote for him or not, and many conservatives feel that way.
