Nothing is set in stone, but there is very strong buzz that Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal will be John McCain's pick for vice president, a move that will give the GOP side a racial first of their own. The problem for the GOP is that he's young — a decade younger than Obama — and green. The problem for the country, if McCain is elected, is that Jindal is quite the kooky religious righter.
As a born and bred Louisianian (Is that the term?), trust me when I say that being a kook is the least of Jindal's problems. He is a browner version of Dan Quayle. If McCain picks him, there's no way he will carry Louisiana-Jindal has only been in office for 6 months and he has managed to piss off the wealthy and the poor. Quite a hat trick, really. Maybe he is some kind of savant.
So this is the plan; the good old game of a white man putting brown against black. Go Republicans !!!
Aaaww, Lauren. What's so kooky about a man who believes he can personally exorcise devils from people? (Articles on it at Huffington Post and Salon.) Can't everyone do that?
yuck. He is such an embarrasment to all Indians and South Asians. (I'm Indian)
Well, aint this some MESS!!! (<— my standard answer to everything these days)
Bobby Jindal
OH REALLY???
Is America ready for this???
Well McCain is gonna have to do a lot of talking to convince people this man is not a Muslim hiding behind a bible, what they accuse Obama of doing.
You know some people, like the idiots in Kentucky, see brown skin + good hair* = Muslim.
*sarcasm
Dude is like 14. So, what they're essentially saying is should John McCain have a heart attack next Valentine's Day, we're talking President Jindal.
Yeah. OK.
republicans are too racists to vote for anyone brown !
