Bobby Jindal Becomes First Indian - American To Run For Us President

[Kickuu]

 

His refusal to endorse evolution hardly distinguishes him from the other Republican presidential hopefuls, but Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal can point to an unmatched achievement as he formally kicks off his campaign: signing a law that paved the way for creationism to be taught in schools.

Jindal, who will announce his White House bid at a rally near New Orleans on Wednesday, signed the Louisiana Science Education Act into law in 2008. It was his first year as governor.

 

Ostensibly a bill promoting the discussion of diverse theories in science classrooms, critics argue that it was introduced as a way to smuggle creationist pseudoscience such as “intelligent design” into the state’s public schools. Efforts to repeal it, backed by 78 Nobel laureates, have failed. The fourth such attempt failed last year.

However, he is a rank outsider for the 2016 nomination, polling at 0.8% according to a Real Clear Politics average of polls. He made his reputation as a sharp policy strategist but in recent years has sounded more like an evangelical demagogue.
Last week, Jindal told a conference that corporate America has fashioned an “unnatural alliance with the radical left” by opposing so-called religious freedom bills that gay rights activists fear would give businesses a license to discriminate.

 

A converted Catholic who was raised in a Hindu family, he held a mass prayer rally on the campus of Louisiana State University in January, an event that evoked fellow White House hopeful Rick Perry’s own gathering shortly before he launched his 2012 campaign. Jindal’s rally was backed by the American Family Association, which has linked abortion and same-sex marriage to natural disasters such as tornadoes and hurricane Katrina.

A Jindal campaign spokesman did not respond to a request for comment on the governor’s career.

he is ABCD

[suryausa]

1. The son of immigrants from India's Punjab state, Jindal made history when he became the first U.S. governor with roots in India.

2. Born Piyush Jindal in Baton Rouge in 1971, he gave himself the nickname Bobby—after the youngest son on The Brady Bunch—when he was 4.

3. Raised a Hindu, Jindal converted to Catholicism as a teenager. As a young convert, he wrote of the emotional and intellectual struggles of his spiritual journey in several articles that were published in theNew Oxford Review, a Catholic magazine.

4. Jindal graduated from Baton Rouge High School in 1987. He attended Brown University, graduating with honors in biology and public policy. He turned down admissions to medical and law schools at Harvard and Yale to attend Oxford University as a Rhodes scholar.

 

5. While attending Oxford, Jindal contemplated joining the priesthood. He ultimately decided that it was not for him.

6. In 2006, Jindal and his wife, Supriya, delivered their third child at home. Barely able to call 911 before the delivery, Jindal received a nurse's coaching by phone. Just as he was completing the umbilical cord procedure with a shoestring, paramedics arrived. The Jindals have a daughter and two sons.

7. Before he turned 30, Jindal headed Louisiana's Department of Health and Hospitals and became president of the University of Louisiana System. He served in the Department of Health and Human Services under President George W. Bush and was executive director of the National Bipartisan Commission on the Future of Medicare in the late '90s. Prior to public service, Jindal worked for the consulting firm McKinsey & Co.

8. In 2003, Gov. Mike Foster, who was finishing his second consecutive term and therefore could not run again, encouraged Jindal to run for governor. Defeated by Democrat Kathleen Babineaux Blanco, Jindal's first bid for governor was unsuccessful.

9. In 2004, he sought the congressional seat from Louisiana's First District. He won with a whopping 78 percent of the vote and was re-elected in 2006 with almost 90 percent.

10. In 2007, Jindal ran for governor again and won. The victory was largely attributed to old-fashioned politicking, which included Jindal "giving testimony" in Pentecostal and Baptist churches in rural and remote sections of Louisiana.
