...and the youngest person ever elected to govern a US state..
Harold Stassen was 31 when he was elected Gov. of Minn.

I hope I’m around to see it. We really like him here in Louisiana.

I hope he’s president right after Haley Barbour. I’d be right proud to have either one of them.

India would lose its marbles if he were elected VP, and in a very good way. This would be a good thing, and hopefully would cement US-Indian relations.
Talk about changing the world map overnight.
To: TornadoAlley3
Great. Super. I’d like to see his REAL record some 2-4 years from now. But using a first few months experience as governor as a trampoline to a national office is a dumb strategy. Same goes for the senate and the Democrat scum who ‘ve tried to pull it off, including their current frontrunner.

His father, an engineer and one of nine children of a poor rural family, came to the United States so that his mother could continue her graduate work in nuclear physics. Oh, yeah, most immigrants come to America to escape war, famine and to find a better life, Indians come to America to complete their masters and doctorates. LOL!

Guy sounds like an up-and-coming superstar. But he sounds “too conservative” to be a Republican running-mate. The “compassionate” crowd will squash him.

Obviously a Hindu Manchurian candidate. /s

Right - I don’t want him for VP because that would be too reactive. Promise is there, though.

A few years from now, maybe. Right now, he should make good on his promise to clean up Louisiana.

Right. Precisely why he shouldn’t be running for another office right now.

In fact, when McCain became the Republican nominee, I was quite disappointed. Bobby Jindal gives me hope that there are young conservatives out there that can bring conservative ideas back to the forefront.
To: GreenLanternCorps
he will be President someday. 2012 or 2016 would be my estimate. Give him two terms as Governor of LA to show what conservative principles, policies, and governance can accomplish and he may be the most qualified presidential candidate within memory (maybe even more qualified than the great Ronald Reagan, because Bobby will have had Reagan as a role model).
