Bobby Jindal will run for president in 2016: Top US senator
PTI : Washington, Mon Dec 23 2013, 10:31 hrs

Top Republican leader and current Governor of Louisiana Bobby Jindal is planning to run for president in 2016, a top US Senator from his home State has said.

I do think, he (Jindal) will run. He is being running. He would be a significant candidate," Senator David Vitter told private American TV channel C-SPAN's Newsmakers programme in an interview.

"I like Bobby, I respect his leadership, I agree with all of his political values. But I haven't thought about what I would do or wouldn't do personally," Vitter said.

"Oh yeah. I think that's very obvious to everybody who has been paying attention," the junior Senator from Lousiana said when asked if he believes Jindal would to be president.

1. "He is being running." says Vitter. Just perfect!

[billhicks76]

17. Please Do!!

This guy is an idiot with no charisma and no vision or the future...he probably only got elected because politics in Louisiana is screwed up.

[Berlum]

26. Another diaper load from bitter Vitter (R-SmarmySanctimoniousHypocrite Style)

[immoderate]

2. No chance!

These are, after all, Republicans!

[TreasonousBastard]

3. Of course his hat will be in the ring...

and he'll poll high for two months until the attacks work. Then he'll be down in the teens, money will dry up and he'll be gone forever. Then the real candidates slowly come out from the shadows.

Isn't that the way it always works?

[TwilightGardener]

4. Clown car's crowded already, he'll have to go in the trunk with Huck.

[olddad56]

5. +1

[chillfactor]

13. + 1000 LOL

[Auggie]

30. !

[MADem]

6. Oh, what fun!

I remember his stirring opposition speech to one of the SOTUs!

Comedy gold! He was mugging like Gumby!

[bigworld]

34. Substitute "Hurricane Monitoring" for "Volcano Monitoring"

He just can't see beyond his little world.

I'm sure folks in Hawaii, Alaska, and the Pacific northwest are very happy to have their volcanoes monitored.

[caledesi]

7. Is that the best they can do? Yeah, that's the ticket! nt

[Thinkingabout]

8. Let's see what the birthers will do with this one. When he was born neither of his parents

was citizens of the US. If they could not deal with Obama being born in Hawaii and to a mother who was an American citizen, how are they going to handle this. Oh, silly me, this is only a problem if the person running is a Democrat.

Jindal has preformed miserably in Louisiana, we don't need his kind of leadership. He has been on attack of the 90% as governor of Louisiana

[hibbing]

9. Please proceed governor

Although seeing what idiots have been elected before, one never knows.

Peace

[yellowcanine]

45. +100

Bobby J. has already proven he is willing to say just about anything to score political points so it will be enormously entertaining to have him being asked to explain some of his past and future statements.

[jsr]

10. Bobby is a shoo-in

[trublu992]

11. And the jokes keep on coming it's going to be a Merry Christmas indeed!

[onehandle]

12. Begin The Loading Of The Clown Car! nt

[chillfactor]

14. this is a re-load of the clown car....

the old one just needs gas LOL

[1000words]

15. Let the "Schmuck Dynasty" begin!

[tblue]

16. Can you imagine 4 years of this:

Oh this I gotta see.

[Skittles]

28. problem is, Duyba really, really, REALLY lowered the bar

it is now a well known fact that a gibbering idiot can be president

[warrant46]

36. Or a Chimpanzee

[truebluegreen]

29. Kenneth the Page for President!

[TlalocW]

18. My God, do you realize what this means?

He's got to keep this whole Duck Dynasty scandal going for as long as he can!

Seriously, I can see Jindal maybe as a vice-presidential candidate. I know he was at one time the GOP's wunderkind, but the republicans are so desperate to have an old, White man back in the presidency, there is no way in hell they're going to go with Bobby, and it's going to be embarrassing to see him pander for the job. The best he can hope for is being the veep candidate of a GOP team elected and re-elected then a combination of his not doing anything stupid in 8 years and a lessening of the racism inherent in his party to have a chance in 2024.

And really, what are the odds of either of those things happening?

TlalocW

[dixiegrrrrl]

19. "Jindal fails, Jindal fails...."

Jindal fails all the wayyyyy"

Sung to the tune of Jingle Bells, of course.

[kickysnana]

20. Is he the first clown out of the GOP clown car or am I just not paying attention this year? n/t

[DonViejo]

32. The Huckster (Mike Huckabee) announced

'He Might Be Back: Huckabee Eyeing White House Run"; then there's Chris Christie from New Jersey. Paul Ryan says "maybe," then says, "maybe not." Oh yes, let's not forget the Cuban delegation, Carnival Cruz and Marco Rubio.

[rustbeltvoice]

21. Diaper Dave breaks the news.

O, as some of the responses suggest, this may be funny. I do not know who used it first, and when the term came into circulation, "clown car" is perfect. The sad, and dangerous point is that no matter how ridiculous, or horrendous the eventual Republican nominee is, is that he will get 45% of the electorate in a two man race.

We also should have a real bookmaker's system on this. Many of you are more familiar in creating charts and graphs on the computer. We should have an on-going one.

The field of plugs for the 2016 Republic [sic] candidate:

☐ Piyush Jindal
☐ another bush
☐ Wanker Walker
☐ Paul's stupid kid
☐ Rafael Eduardo Cruz
☐ Paul Ryan
☐ the schmucks who lost to Willard Romney last time
☐ coo-coo to be named later
☐ ________ ___________

[livetohike]

31. Good one! Too many "coo coos" to list. Maybe the Duck Dynasty guy

will run.

[warrant46]

37. Maybe Joe the Plumber will be resurrected

[Nanjing to Seoul]

22. Diaper Dave breaks it that Governor Howdy Doody will run for Pretzelnuts!

BTW, He is being running???? WTF!?!?!?!

[SoapBox]

23. Only one thing to say...

[NBachers]

24. My hat's in the ring, By Jiminy!

[ConcernedCanuk]

25. Umm - I wouldn't laugh too hard . . .

This guy lasted EIGHT FRIKKEN YEARS!

[warrant46]

38. Ah the Chimpanzee

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

27. A guy who uses a fake name because of a weird crush he had on Bobby Brady (true story)

Piyush jindal insisted on being called "Bobby" as a boy because of his Brady Bunch obsession, and can't let go of it, even in middle age.

Throw in the exorcism and the guy's sure to weird out all of America.

[madokie]

33. What a glutten for punishment

At best he'll be laughed at, at worst he'll be thrown off the f*ing stage.
stupid man child

[SheilaT]

35. He'll forever be Kenneth the page to me.

[santamargarita]

39. He has the support of the Ducked up Dynasty

[Botany]

40. At one time the republicans had serious candidates for POTUS

n/t

[L0oniX]

41. Expendable fodder to fall on sword for the next clown king.

[Wolf Frankula]

42. I also Look for Newtie the Lego

and the Frothy Mixture to come back.

[EC]

43. He'd be wasting his time.

What on earth makes him believe he'll even make it 2 months in the primaries?

[damnedifIknow]

44. So he can throw us all in a private prison

His state is a scary place.

[On the Road]

46. Bobby Jindal Thinks He's a President?

He ain't no president.

[truebrit71]

47. Piyush Jindal would do better off attending more exorcisms

..at least there he's not always the craziest one in the room...
