Pinckney Benton Stewart Pinchback, black, served as Governor of Louisiana for 35 days, Dec. 1872- Jan. 1873. He was the first black Governor of a U.S. state. (Impressive considering the reputation of racism we get in Louisiana. Thanks David Duke!!! SOB!!)

This is a good day for our state. However, Bobby also has enormous expectations to live up to. There’s been alot of hype and support for him since the ‘03 Governors Race, especially after Blanco’s blunders in ‘05 and ‘06 (not all having to do with the hurricanes).

Geaux Bobby Jindal!!

Pat Buchanan aced it on “McLaughlin” a few weeks ago when he named Jindal and Sarah Palin (Governor of Alaska) as the future of the Republican party...
