Bobby jindal president ?????
 
What ya'll think.......................

tojoe 06-24-2015 05:10 PM

Uhhhhhh...............HELL NO!!!!!

Clampy 06-24-2015 05:12 PM

Hope he runs. It will be hilarious.
Just like the rest of these clowns.

Cappy 06-24-2015 05:12 PM

Bobby is a good Catholic Christian man but he aint ready. he needs to try for vice president or maybe senate for a few years. When the time comes I would vote for him just not this round its too early.

Duck Butter 06-24-2015 05:16 PM

His chances of being POTUS were eliminated the day he gave the Republican's point of view after Obama's State of the Union Address a few years back.

If you want a good laugh go to Facebook and look up Bobby Jinderp:rotfl:

I agree

lil bubba 06-24-2015 05:18 PM

He is running ,,,,,just had press release......I would vote for him before hillairous clintass....

Matt G 06-24-2015 05:22 PM

The guy is a megalomaniac who, to quote Rack'em Willie, "couldn't manage a bowl of f'n jello." He took a huge dump on this state to position himself for a run for POTUS. I'd almost rather Obama get a 3rd term at office than Jindal winning president...... Almost.

Clampy 06-24-2015 05:40 PM

His chances were ruined the day he preformed a exorcism in college

"W" 06-24-2015 06:06 PM

I would vote for him

eman 06-24-2015 06:17 PM

He is trying to position himself to get enough percentage to be able to look good as a running mate for VP. He knows he has no chance to be president. But if he can get to 9-11% in the polls he can pass those votes to someone who has a chance. I'm thinking Rick Perry

duckman1911 06-24-2015 06:37 PM

I don't have anyone of them that I can say I really like. Bobby has good points and bad ones but they all do. I like a lot of Rand and Ted. I just don't have a single one I can say yes with yet. No matter what not much will change unfortunately. Ronald Reagan anyone?

keakar 06-24-2015 07:48 PM

the only ones im sure that I am not going to be voting for are Hillary "what difference does it make" Clinton and Chris "I love Obama" Christie.

im just sick of the republicans giving us liberal progressive candidates who's only claim to be work voting for is they are better then the liberal progressive democrat alternatives.

ThePinkBanana 06-24-2015 08:47 PM

An evangelical catholic who will do everything in his power to reverse Obama care and all this BS spending by your current president... How could you not be in favor of him? I'm sorry but You guys are idiots... Who would you like Hillary??

irokcj5 06-24-2015 08:50 PM

Doesn't matter who runs. After the Republican House and Senate this week ceded their Treaty powers to the POTUS, they've made Obama the most powerful president in the history of the USA, and gave him full authority to make trade agreements, and put the trade union law above US law. His stated purpose to "remake" America is fully in his grasp now. I've held my nose when I voted for Dole, McCain, and Romney because my party said we had to have a moderate to win. Ok, I'm done. I can promise I will not vote for and establishment Repub such as Christie, Bush, Jindal. I don't know who or if I will support any one of them. I can say one thing, if I am given another establishment republican, I WILL write in a candidate. Yes, Hillary will probably win if we all bail on the established chosen one, but I think we need drastic change or a new party. I'm done with it. Besides something seems strange to me in elections. I've always believed in our system, but I'm being more and more convinced that the fix is in. I really do not think we'll ever see a conservative POTUS again. Makes me sick to see what is happening to our country. I got pi$4d off at the news of house and senate this morning so I turned to my favorite Bluegrass channel..... then I got pissed off at my company today, so i came here to read about fishing.....now look, I'M PI$$D OFF AGAIN !!

I hate to say it but I have lost all faith in our government and most of society. If it were not for my kids I would sell most of what I own and head to Costa Rica.

mcjaredsandwich 06-24-2015 09:09 PM

Rand Paul who is libertarian leaning would have my vote. If not, it's whoever is running libertarian.

I really do find it hilarious that many of you think things will change with a republican in office. Nothing will change.

Duck a tiki bar. Cash in 401k, personal investments, sell rental properties, house, boats, personal property and live a good life.
You can live a hell of a life with minimal expense. If you get away from the tourist traps it don't cost crap to live there. I know a few people that have retired at a very early age and live there.

Very true the problem, most people have no idea what their government is doing to them or what the candidates stand for. unfortunately they will never vote outside of a democrat of republican ticket and we will never have a president that is an independent candidate. I don't remember the last time I voted for a mainstream candidate. Unfortunately I know my candidate will not win the election. I just refuse to vote for the TOOLS we have running.

I think those that have held their noses the last 12 years have given one too many chances for the Repubs to show their stuff, well they did but not as advertised. I don't think I'm the only one ready to bolt!

silver_snipe 06-24-2015 09:44 PM

Well I like Bobby but I too have my doubts about him being in the top office. I would vote for him against any of the declared Dem candidates. I agree that I have held my nose voting for the establishment GOP candidate but we have to get away from the far left dems. If we stick together and get rid of the far left liberal then we can focus of moving further to the right. If we all write in a good candidate then we waste our vote and that is a good as voting for the far left liberal. As of now I do not support any one. I am leaning toward Perry simply because people I respect are endorsing him. We have to stick together and get rid of the far left. With that being said I have not seen any dem I would vote for over Bobby. So in that situation I too would vote for him.

We have to unite for a more right candidate!

I like Rand but not pperfect. Never will be the perfect candidate though. I don't trust or like any of them on either side. Dem, Rep or Lib.

With all due respect sir, holding the line expecting to see a difference and bring the country back from destruction, is what we have been trying. The house and senate is owned by the republicans, and they are giving this traitor of a president everything he wants. These guys like Beiner, McConnel, and their minions are just as much of a traitor to this great country as the POTUS and all deserve the harshest penalties that is due to a traitor. I do not see any advantage of holding the line any more. What is the difference when we get republicans who once in power act like democrats. I hear what you are saying, but I'm 52 and I'm done towing the line only to be deflated. I will say so far, I would maybe vote for Perry, Cruz, Paul, maybe Kasich (ms?). I'm going to keep abreast to what they say and do. But if it is Christi, Bush, Jendal, sorry, I'm not holding my nose one more time. :flagUS:

All about the money.

I do like the idea of Rand's flat tax. Have only read into it a little bit, but I like it.

Thank you for saying all due respect but none is needed. what is needed is getting the FAR left DEMS out. I do not support holding the party line. I'm an independent and will always be one. But if we don't unite behind the candidate that is right of the FAR LEFT DEM we in effect support said DEM. We are so far left and wrong as a country that I (my opinion, and we know what they are) we have to take moving back right in steps. My opinion is the first step is get the liberal left out of power.

Yup ! I m with you on that one !!!

MathGeek 06-24-2015 10:42 PM

I like Jindal, Perry, Huckabee, and Walker.

Huckabee is the most articulate, Jindal is the smartest, Perry is likely the best leader, and Walker is the most electable.

There are 8+ months before the LA primary, but one of these will most likely get my vote.

I'd certainly vote for any of them over Hillary in the general election.

If Christie gets the Rep nomination, I'll vote third party.

LPfishnTIM 06-24-2015 11:13 PM

all politicians value is power and money, that's including Bobby Jindal! I'd vote for him over any democrat. I don't think he has a chance, I think he may become a VP nominee. I think he will be in the same category as rand paul someone who is really smart and belongs in the office but will never get there. I hate how recently the executive order that he made, lost him popularity with media and liberal companies in the state. that executive order protects our religious freedom. What really bothers me is how the majority of people fall for the ideas what is learned in liberal colleges and media. Our nation really needs God more than any politician.

Yep Scott walker just like bobby jindal isn't the great leader rush and hannity will have you believe. He isn't well liked in his state even by republicans. Just like Jindal. Hannity thinks both of these guys hung the moon

I began my comment in that manner, because I do highly respect your view. I've held the same view my adult life. I voted Bush twice and his second term he turned left. I just don't believe if we have Christi or Bush in office that the country will take back what was lost and that they'll still let federal judges make law and most probably be conciliatory to the democrats and offer "moderate" Supreme Court justices who in actuality will vote liberal. I guess the only thing I see different is a fast bleed or slow bleed, but bleeding none the less. Lets all hope for a great candidate that can beat Hilary. But I too think the fix is in for Clinton-Bush. I've become very untrusting and cynical.:cry:

Everything will change. Jindal hates Obama. He already has written plans on how to get rid of Obama care and common core education. If you followed Jindal and his policies over the years, you would know this. He's the best candidate if you're looking to get rid of all the Scars Hussein obama hAs left on this country.

I stopped looking for the perfect combination of policy, personality, and leadership intangibles many decades ago. We're choosing a president for 4 years, not a spouse for life. There are no perfect men, and there are no perfect candidates.

For me, good policy reflects good thinking and as such is good leadership. I'm looking for good policy (need not be perfect) plus a deep and abiding love for the US and committment to the Constitution.

Jindal was once an advocate of common core. He is only against it now because Obama is for it. He has only been playing politics these last 4 years.

He is making promises to the country now but he has forgotten about all the promises he made to the state. He has done nothing but campaign this entire last term

A lot of state leaders and educators turned against common core over time as the intent and implementation of common core changed in important ways:

1. Over time, common core shifted from a state led initiative to a centralized authority.

2. Common core evolved into a tool for introducing politically correct positions on controversial issues like homosexual marriage and global warming into the curriculum.

3. Common core shifted to include centralized record keeping and cradle to grave privacy intrusions for every student.

4. On the assessment side, common core morphed into an unfunded mandate for excessive standardized testing.

5. Comon Core grew to include not just descriptions of what students needed to know, but excessively micromanages how it is to be taught.

In summary, Common Core had the support of many state leaders and educators when it was crafted and portrayed as a common curriculum to improve educational standards. It began to be widely rejected after it grew into an expensive and oppresive tool for centralized control, robbing states and local districts of freedom to craft and deliver curricula that best meet the needs of their students.

I applaud Jindal for rejecting Common Core. Sure, he should have seen it coming that it would change into a centralized power grab, but at least he abandoned it after it did.

Jindal only did this because of politics. His last term he has been a lame duck. He doesn't care about common core, he decided to change his policy on it because it makes him look "conservative" to be against government oversight. Which is very ironic considering his record.

Can you name 5 things Jindal has done for the good of Louisiana off the top of your head without the aid of Google? It is easier to compile a list of negatives vs positives for me
