Add another name to the GOP list. Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal has just declared that he, too, is running for the Republican nomination.

I’m running for President of the United States of America. Join me: http://t.co/MmqB4kxpUq

He posted a series of videos on his website showing his conversations with his family about running for president. I have to admit, after the slick packaging of nearly every other candidate making sure that they were talking with every single category of American, this was a refreshing departure.

Jindal comes to the race with strong conservative credentials. But because all liberals see is the color of people’s skin, cue the left’s attack on Jindal’s ethnic background.

This is the foundation of the left’s attacks on a man with a darker skin than Obama. He’s not “authentic” enough because he speaks with a Southern drawl instead of an Indian accent. The Washington Post and other media outlets are hoping to ignore that the slate of candidates on the Democrats’ side is still as white as a blizzard on Hoth.

And the left is undeniably nervous about Jindal.

After all, they don’t make comments like that about people who aren’t a threat.

So, welcome to the race, Governor Jindal. This field is getting quite crowded. They better start building bigger stages for the GOP debates.
