Louisiana Governor Piyush “Bobby” Jindal announced his intentions to run for the USA presidency today:
June 24, 2015
Washington (CNN) Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, once a Republican rising star who passed on an opportunity to seek the White House in 2012, announced his candidacy on Wednesday under much more trying circumstances.
Jindal announced his bid over social media, just hours before he will host a kickoff rally.
“I’m running for President of the United States of America. Join me,” Jindal tweeted, with a link to his website’s announcement page.
If he wants to compete in the expansive Republican field, he’ll have to resurrect a reputation that has fallen significantly in recent years. Jindal is now polling toward the bottom of the field, registering at just 1% in the latest CNN/ORC poll.
Jindal’s popularity in his own state has suffered — a recent poll has his approval at 32% — thanks to budget troubles and perhaps a preoccupation with playing to a national audience. His refusal to raise taxes to help balance the state’s books has resulted in deep cuts to popular programs and areas of government spending such as health care and education. http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/24/politics/bobby-jindal-2016-election-announcement/
“Top Bobby Jindal aides join campaign-in-waiting. He’s also positioned himself as a top opponent of “political correctness” and has at times led his party’s charge in railing against radical Islam, while also straying into the controversial”
Here is some information about some of his positions:
Abortion and stem cell research
Jindal has a 100% pro-life voting record according to the National Right to Life Committee. …
Same-sex marriage
Jindal opposes the legalization of same-sex marriage. …
Gun rights
Jindal has stated his support of the Second Amendment’s right to bear arms. …
Evolution
Jindal signed a law that permits teachers at public schools to supplement standard evolutionary curricula with analysis and critiques that may include intelligent design. …
Civil liberties
Jindal opposes the Fairness Doctrine on the grounds that it is a violation of the Constitution’s guarantee of free speech and vowed protection of property rights. …
Personal life
Jindal was raised in a Hindu household. He converted to Christianity while in Baton Rouge Magnet High School. During his first year at Brown University, he was received into the Roman Catholic Church. His family attends weekly Mass at Saint Aloysius Parish in Baton Rouge. (Bobby Jindal. Wikipedia, accessed 06/24/15)
It is possible that church-going Protestants and Roman Catholics will support him. There are so many Republican candidates right now, that Bobby Jindal’s possible support from those who would seem to agree with him is not assured.
He has been considered as a potential presidential/vice presidential choice since at least 2008. But this is the first time he has officially announced that he was running for president.
Bobby Jindal called for national repentance from time to time. However, it is not likely that he and most others will truly do that. While he does have certain biblically-supportable positions in contrast to certain biblically-condemned ones by current front runner (see NBC/WSJ Poll: Hillary Clinton currently leads all Democratic and Republican presidential hopefuls) Hillary Clinton, this does not mean he is what the USA needs. The USA needs the Kingdom of God and that is not something that Bobby Jindal has indicated that he truly understands.
