Bobby Jindal Was An “Anchor Baby”

Republicans are sounding the alarm, wanting to repeal part of the 14th Amendment.  Surprisingly, Bobby Jindal supports Arizona’s new Immigration law, although, he was an “anchor baby” himself.

SEIU:

Piyush “Bobby” Jindal (born in U.S. on June 10, 1971)

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (who is nicknamed after Bobby from the Brady Bunch) was born six months after his parents came over on a student visa. Under Pearce’s proposed law, Jindal would have been deported to his birth parents’ native India. He would not have gone on to Brown University, to become a Rhode Scholar or Republican Governor of Louisiana.

According to the New York Times, “Piyush Jindal was born on June 10, 1971, in Baton Rouge to Hindu parents who had come to the United States six months before so his mother could pursue a graduate degree in nuclear physics at Louisiana State University.”

Would Republicans have wanted Bobby Jindal deported?

    @me, His parent’s Visas had expired. He was an “anchor baby.” If they had changed the 14th amendment during that time, he would have been deported under those circumstances.

    Look, I hate Bobby as much as the next guy that hates what he’s doing to our state (hey! remember how he over hauled our healthcare system saving us millions of dollars? you know, the overhaul that got us fined but the Federal government for more than the savings were? That’s the man I want for President) but seriously his parents were here on student visas meaning they were here legally meaning he’s a born citizen.

    What he’s opposed to is those that come here illegally and don’t obtain proper citizenship.

    Oh, and people that are born in the US to legal non-citizens like he was.

    To Burnout: Under Pearce’s proposed law, individuals on a temporary visa would be deported when the visa expired, as would their children who were born in the USA. A Student Visa is a Temporary Visa. Under Pearce’s law he would have been deported.

      Wait a minute, PJD. There’s a fly in this ointment.

      Namely that Jindal’s parents most likely were able to stay in the US by finding other employment after graduate school. What this means is that they would have applied for a different kind of visa through their new employer(s), and eventually a green card and citizenship.

      Not to say that there isn’t plenty of hypocrisy to go around, but this one’s a red herring.

  • timmy the dying boy

    Is it too late now?

  • burntpowder

    And you have proof that Jindal’s parents were illegals? Is it not possible that after the student visa his parents were issued Green Cards and became a Citizens?

    Say what?

    Should Bobby Jindal be deported? Some Republicans might say yes. http://freakoutnation.com/2010/08/03/bobby-jindal-was-an-anchor-baby/
