That was the entertainer in him. I like the fact that Russia, radical Islam/ISIS/Saudi/Iran, China, N. Korea and our own socialist Democrats, IRS and Federal regulatory agencies would always have to take him deadly serious!

He was a crappy governor. Ask anyone who is in the education field. Also, he sold out the LA State workers health insurance to Blue Cross/Blue Shield!!! I wouldn't vote for him for dogcatcher!!!

Yes, he has been a crappy governor. No he did not sell out the La state workers insurance to BC/BS. This has been explained to you already.
Re: 2016 Presidential Campaign
And still zero Socialist debates?
Hillary Clinton Can’t Name A Top Accomplishment While Secretary Of State [VIDEO]
Hillary Clinton could not name her “number one accomplishment” while she was secretary of state during her first live interview of the campaign season with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer Thursday.
Clinton instead said that anyone who is interested in her accomplishments should “read my book ‘Hard Choices.'”

STILL NO DEBATES
Former Gov. Martin O'Malley (Md.) is leading the charge for more debates, accusing the party of “facilitating a coronation” for Clinton in an August statement.
Sanders has also called for more chances to debate his fellow candidates.
The party plans to hold six debates during the primary season, compared to 26 during the 2008 cycle.
"Telling New Hampshire they can only have one before New Hampshire, telling Iowa only one day before Iowa — that's never happened before," O'Malley said Thursday morning on MSNBC's "The Rundown with José Diaz-Balart."
"And I think people find it insulting. It's beneath us as a party."

Whether he did or didn't....his chances of being the Republican Nominee for President are less than a popcorn fart in a whirlwind.

Nobody would take him seriously.
I'm flabbergasted that anyone on Earth does.

I will just say his Jindalnomics caused the problem. I know of no state workers that are happy about what Jindal did.

Because they are all state workers and fellow state workers lost their jobs when BC/BS took it over. You are a prime example of how misinformation by pro-government media types will distort the truth and have even conservative minded people believing their lies.

Yeah, certainly a bad idea to take a celebrity seriously.

Yes, I have relatives who are state employees. Allowing BC/BS to take over the office of group benefits did not affect our or your state insurance rates.

Medical providers have told me that the insurance La. state workers have was/is among the best available and that didn't change after the transition. I don't know but that is what I have been told.

It has changed some, but not BECAUSE of the OGB takeover as Democrats and those who dislike everything Jindal will tell you. Prices were set to go up anyway and every large group in the nation has had to make some adjustments in order to keep prices down. We ain't seen nothin' yet!
Re: 2016 Presidential Campaign
Adverse effects of state employees' healthcare insurance are tied DIRECTLY to obummercare. Just part of the overall increase in HC insur. nation wide. I hear both sides, well actually ALL sides as there seems to be more than just two sides to this story. Objectively, I have not found any evidence that anything Jindal did has contributed to the increases in HCI premiums or increases in deductibles. Some say, if anything, such increases would be much worse if not for the actions Jindal took.
20-25 years from now the REAL truth of Jindal's tenure will be written. It will be some good, some bad, but mostly good. In some categories VERY good. But, I won't try to convince the low-information crowd of any of it right now.
