A Cruz/Jindal or Walker/Jindal could be a very powerful ticket

What exactly does Jindal bring to the ticket?

I agree that Jindal would be (at least from what we know now) a real good VP choice. He doesn't seem to have any of the baggage or suspicions that he's a Chamber of Commerce kind of guy attached to him. (Walker, Jeb, and Kasich all have that baggage).

Cruz did renounce the deal that passed the US Senate, and that's good. But he should've seen in coming, that the dems would do something like this to marginalize him. And now, because of that early cooperation, you've got the media touting "Obama's huge trade victory".

What's my point? If it becomes "last man standing", it could come down to Jindal. If not, people are mad as 'ell and could easily vote for Trump.

Ummmm.... No. By the 15th or 16th primary(probably even long before that), most of the candidates would have withdrawn from the race due to bad performances in the early primary states and lack of money. Just look at the last two primaries for 2008 and 2012. This where Ted Cruz is going to shine even more. He has the money and the grassroots support to see this through to the end, and secondly, almost all the conservative/liberterian candidates like Rand Paul, Santorum, Carson etc are going to throw their support behind Cruz when if they are forced to withdrW. I don't see any of these guys e ever backing Jeb Bush or Rubio.

Would you rather have Rubio, Bush, or some other RINO?

Jindal is conservative. He and Cruz would make a great team.

This isn't an either or choice - Jindal or a RINO. There are a lot of conservatives out there...and believe it or not some of them aren't currently running for president. Jindal brings nothing to the ticket. He's trashed his state. His popularity in Louisiana is in the toilet. He has no base that any other candidate couldn't attract as well. He would be a bad choice.

***************

We are at 418 candidates that have filed FEC form 2 to be a candidate for president of the USA.
Many of them will be localized and won’t be on the national seen but still the number is large.

Here is a list by date filed

http://www.fec.gov/press/resources/2016presidential_form2dt.shtml

by last name

In U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark (1898), the Supreme Court ignored (deemed “not admissible”) the transcripts of the 1866 Congressional debates, in which the framers of the 14th Amendment had explained the originally-intended meaning of “jurisdiction” [27]. The Court developed its own definition of “jurisdiction”, and based on that definition, the Court ruled (for the first time in Supreme Court history) that the U.S.-born children of alien parents may, under some circumstances, acquire U.S. citizenship at birth [28].

Wong Kim Ark: In U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark (1898), the Opinion of the Court was written by Justice Horace Gray. The Court did not explicitly rule that Mr. Wong was a natural born citizen; it merely ruled that he was a citizen. Neverthless, Justice Gray’s reasoning, when carried to its logical conclusion, seems to imply that all persons born on U.S. soil, except the children of foreign diplomats or enemy invaders, are natural born citizens (see Question 13:Wong Kim Ark)

.I agree. Why did you even reply with your stupid comment.

The questions of who is a NBC was not finalized with that decision.

Obama is a NBC. Dozens of court decisions say so.

Are you a US citizen? If so, then you now (these days) meet the NBC condition. Was this the original intention? Doesn’t matter.

No Obama is not a natural born citizen.
I require proof that these court decisions you talk about are real.
Even Obama signed on to a non binding resolution declaring McCain a natural born citizen because he was born of two US citizens.
