So do I, and while I have worn a burr, I've never had anything like John Edwards either. (But I disagree that Jindals "do" looks much like Edwards. If I had a face as think as his, I'd have a shorter haircut than that, but as it is, mine is similar, if a bit shorter (My barber cuts mostly Army heads. :) )
But as with his skin color, whatever it might be, who cares?
re: skin color
The MSM needs to notice that. Apparently they need it to be politically significant. It fits their stereotype.
