“this fine outstanding anchor baby example of Americana.

How ignorant about Jindal you must be to make up such an absurd thing.

Jindals parents were highly pursued to come here, and their biggest reason for resisting that pressure was because of her pregnancy, it took efforts and offers to persuade them to come to the US.

Jindal was not the result of some poor illegals coming over to drop a baby on American soil.”

Then, you have substantiated my calling him an anchor baby, which is not just for ‘poor illegal immigrants’, but for those whose journey here was sponsored by corporate America through H1B visas.

Anyone in the media claiming that Piyush Jindal should run for President, must balance their idiotic assertion through the U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 1, para. 5. Period.

The term “anchor baby” means exploiting the law to create a baby anchor, making an effort to create a “baby anchor”.

When a sought out non citizen couple is encouraged to overcome their hesitation to come here, because the couple is going to have a baby, then they are not trying to create a “anchor baby” to beat the system, as a hook into the system, nor do they need one, nor do they benefit from it.

Please do not try and connect Governor Jindal’s name with “anchor baby”.

Why should a woman that has a scholarship to study for her doctorate in nuclear physics at Louisiana State University and is pregnant, not want to accept that scholarship.

As it is, she had to persuade her professor husband for them to make the move, he finally consented when the paid pregnancy leave was furnished. “Though the university health plan denied coverage for the birth (it was ruled a “preexisting condition”), the one-month paid maternity leave was awarded as promised — that was the perk that had tipped the scales for Amar, who’d been hesitant to leave home, having worked his way up through the ranks to the respected position of assistant professor of engineering at Punjab University”.
