It is way too early to think about presidential run: Jindal

Washington - Indian-American Governor of Louisiana Bobby Jindal has said it is too early to think about the 2016 presidential run as people of the country are not in a mood to have another four years of campaign.

"It's way too early for folks to be thinking about that. We just lost a presidential election. I don't think the people want another four-year presidential campaign," Jindal said at a Republican Party fundraiser in Jackson, Mississippi.

Jindal is considered to be a key Republican presidential aspirant, but so far has publicly denied.

"I know there's a lot of speculation about who wants to run and who doesn't want to run in 2016. As a party, and as a Republican, I say that anybody who's thinking about running for president needs to have their head examined," Jindal was quoted as saying by the local WAPT TV station.

Why should we care for Bobby Jindal? He denies being of Indian origin in every possible way. He even denies eating Indian food! He has done nothing for India, much less Americans of Indian origin. Your newspaper should not provide him coverage.

No, it’s not, Bobby.

You are not going to be president.

Think about that.

I don’t care if Bobby Jindal was born in the White House in Washington D.C. surrounded by U.S. Flags and the GOP Senate. His parents were foreign citizeens and not U.S. citizens when hee was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Unted States of America. This fact of his birth gave him natural born Indian citizenship along with allegiance to the sovereign nation of his parents: India. The whole purpose of the natural born citizen clause was to deny command of the American Army and the office of the President to any peerson who eveer owed allegiance to a foreign sovereign after the adoption of the Constitution. Bobby Jindal and Marco Rubio weere both born with natural born citizenship of their rrespective foreing nations, India and Cuba. The fact that they also qualified for nativee born U.S. citizenship as an option to their nattural born foreign citizenship does nothing to change the fact they weere born owing allegiance to a foreign nation in ddireect contradiction to the intent and wordding of the Constitution’s natural born citizen clause.

Pre-Revolutionary War Britain/England had similar restrictions upon the right of natural born children of foreign nations eligible for native born subjecthood to hold office in the Britain/England. This business of claiming that native born citizenship is the same as natural born citizenship is a lie and a fraud, no matter who is trying to perpetrate it. Use of the “birther’ perjorative to demean anyone defending the eligibility issue is repreehensible and not to be tolkerated.

I have no idea what your blistering screed has to do with my post.
Where did I say anything about birthers, or anything else.
Obviously, you are replying to the wrong post.

If Jindal wants to run, there will be no legal problems with it.
I agree! Jindal could run... http://www.fightingirishthomas.com/2013/02/bobby-jindal-next-st-thomas-more-or.html

There are way too many of us who do not believe he is NBC.

As such, it would be a disaster for him to run and distracting to message and race.

“You responded to my posts writing in part:

So what? It did not stop Obozo.”

“Don’t put ME in that group,(RINO).
I am as pure conservative as one can get, [….]”

I’m making the point there are a lot of people on freerepublic and elsewhere claiming to be Republicans and/or conservatives who aare pushing this itotally fraudulent idea that native born citizenship is the same as natural born citizenship. I’m making the point that anyone, no matter what they claim to have as their persuasion, who says or impliees the eligibility issue is not to be acknowledged and/or taken seriously is no firend of the Constitution or the people who are obedient to their oath to protect and defeend the Constitution against hese sorts of denying and circumventing of the Constitution. Saying “So what....” is objectionalbe to the extent it aids and abets this belittlement of the eligibility issue and its importance to protecting the Constitution and the republican form of government it definedd.

I have no idea how you construe ANY of my post as anti-birther. I am as much of a birther as anyone on FR.
After the election, my tag line emphasized that I am a proud birther.
I have never used the terms “native born” or “natural born”.
I have no idea what the difference is. I am, however, convinced that the so called birth certificates are frauds.
I am convinced that Obumbo is an illegal immigrant, a radical Marxist and atheist.

I said “so what” in that the USSA is now made up of a majority of brain-dead idiots, so...how do you fight that?
Neither of us can fight “stupid”.
That is one good reason for my staying offshore.

Why would you say that? Because West’s district was redrawn to include a huge number of ignorant dems? And there was most definitely voter fraud. And West has never run for president. He’s a good, honest, brave man.

I don’t want to see the term “birthers” used in this way on this forum. The term was made up by the Left to disparage people who dare question why Obama’s birth certificate and information were being hidden.
And the Leftists claimed that Obama was a natural born citizen - so to use the term “birther” against someone who wants to uphold the constitution is to be even worse that the Leftists who support the imposter in the White House.

I can’t believe that there are people in this forum who are using the term “birther” in this way. No one who has the opportunity to have an allegiance to a foreign country can be a Natural Born Citizen. Period.

Allen West

Allen West is probably going to have to have at least one state wide term before running for President.

Did West run in the GOP primaries before? I just can’t recall.
