He is the first non-white governor since Reconstruction

An if you want to get in to the technicalities of race...if Mr Jindal,is an Indian-American from India... then he is indeed "Caucasian" as far as the US government is concerned... or so my Indian-American friends tell me

That’s right. He is Caucasian (some might say proto indo european). The people who claim otherwise really go by the most superficial of appearances.

I look forward to the day when keeping track of who is part of what racial group will just get so unweildy and complicated that people will just stop bothering.
