Also, very interesting as to how Bobby Jindal is not considered eligible to run for president due to his parents not being naturalized citizens at the time of his birth.

You'll have to source that one. If he was born on American soil, he is a natural born citizen under current law (look upthread -- someone cited the applicable law).

Appears that the definition of “Natural Born Citizen” has undergone extensive clarification in at least 4 prior US Supreme Court Cases:
