Is Bobby Phishy Jindal an Anchor Baby?

Piyush "Bobby" Jindal (born June 10, 1971)
Jindal was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, to Amar and Raj Jindal, who came to the United States as immigrants from Punjab, India, six months before he was born.

Conservatives and the angry, hateful wingnuts are always denouncing immigrants who come here pregnant or with small children...

What about Bobby?

Bobby Jindal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

He opposes all abortions without exception...He opposes and has voted against expanding public funding of embryonic stem cell research...(Gov)Jindal opposes the legalization of same-sex marriage...the Louisiana Governor's office has been ranked last for transparency in the United States...In 2007, Jindal led the Louisiana House delegation and ranked 14th among House members in requested earmark funding


Anchor baby - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Anchor baby" is a pejorative term for a child born in the United States to immigrant parents, who, as an American citizen, supposedly can later facilitate immigration for relatives.[1][2][3][4] The term is generally used as a derogatory reference to the supposed role of the child, who automatically qualifies as an American citizen and can later act as a sponsor for other family members.[2][5] The term is often used in the context of the debate over illegal immigration to the United States to refer to children of illegal immigrants, but could also be used in a similar sense outside of that context to refer to the child of any immigrant "when the child's birthplace is thought to have been chosen in order to improve the mother's or other relatives' chances of securing eventual citizenship."

No, he's not. His parents had green cards: Dad for being a high tech worker and Mom for studying at LSU.

His mom came here pregnant knowing her kid would be born American. That qualifies as an anchor baby.

Don't get me wrong...there is only a new crackdown on what Jindals parents did. When they did it it was acceptable

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Apparently NEITHER of his parents were Americans. Does that disqualify him from the presidency? Many birthers make a big deal of Obama's father being Kenyan, though his mother was American.

Maybe Michael Savage ...

who sent love letters to Alan Ginsberg when he used his real name Mike Weiner?

Jindel's mother was here as a permanent resident not on a student visa, his parents had green cards, giving them the status of permanent legal residents. No he was not a "anchor baby".

As he wrote last year in his book, "Leadership and Crisis," his mother had been offered a scholarship in 1970 to complete a graduate degree in nuclear physics at LSU.

When she informed the university that she couldn't accept the scholarship because she was pregnant, "LSU wrote back and promised her a month off for childbirth if she changed her mind. LSU was so accommodating, and the opportunity to come to America so thrilling, that my parents accepted.

Before the 1965 immigration reform law, immigration from Eastern Hemisphere counties, like India, was limited. But the 1965 act permitted greater immigration through a variety of categories, including "professionals, scientists and artists of exceptional ability."

Amar Jindal's passport is notated with the code P3-1, the visa code in 1971 for "professional or highly skilled." And Raj Jindal received her green card as his spouse.

"Raj got her green card through her husband, Amar," Plotkin said. "Amar received his green card though a program by the federal government to increase the number of engineers. It was not through an employer."

Didn't see a damned word about his parents being illegal, so the short answer is NO. Trying to start your Alinski bull shit a bit early aren't ya?

The immigration status of one’s parents is irrelevant, children born in the United States are citizens, whether their parents are undocumented or not.

Consequently, there is no such thing as an ‘anchor baby,’ there are only Americans citizens.

of course. but the term anchor baby has been used for quite a long time, to refer to people who have children born on US soil as a way to further their lives and that of their spawn

...

Mom came here pregnant. Green card or not, the term 'anchor baby' applies because of the circumstances, not the immigration status of the mom

Baloney, she came here at the behest of school even after she told them she could not come due to pregnancy and could not accept the scholarship they shopped her and told her to come anyway and even offered her a month off. Not to mention her husband was also offered a green card BEFORE arriva due to a government programl. There would be no reason to have a baby as an “anchor” if they already had green cards offered and residency. Wow.

sounds like a Hollywood script.

Give it up. You're starting to sound frantic and desperate, just like the Nutter's do when their threads die from lack of substance.

Bobby Jindal is a good honest man who has lived his entire life in the USofA after being legally born here. Maybe he is an Anchor baby only the left would use that as a smear considering they feel that just being able to swim the Rio Grande is enough of a citizenship test.

Barrack Obama on the other hand was born in the US to an American mother fathered by someone not an American citizen. Shortly after birth BO moved from the US to another country where he lived under the assumed name of Barry Sorentoto. Now it seems to me that if the left wants to be so disingenuous as to attack they ought to look in the mirror first. But then again they know that living under an assumed name is exactly the same as being born in American and living in America. Right......

I will also make a bet. You will not read a bio of Jindal that makes the claim of foriegn birth. Nor will you read a book on Jindal where he admits to illegal drug use and driving DUI.

What is it you don't get. Dante never said he wanted to go after anchor babies, but Jindal does fall under one well worn use of the term by people on his side.

People cannot attack other people with immigrants parents, or attack others with strange sounding names and then go on to back somebody like Jindal without the hypocrisy sticking out like Bobby Jindals real name

Are you? I have no reason to think so and have no proof you are then again there was no proof about Jindal being one in your OP either so I figure what the hell I might as well ask.

...

Mom came here pregnant. Green card or not, the term 'anchor baby' applies because of the circumstances, not the immigration status of the mom

Not according to your own definition, if she already had permanent resident status, having a baby had no effect:

"when the child's birthplace is thought to have been chosen in order to improve the mother's or other relatives' chances of securing eventual citizenship."

She had chosen to be here before she became pregnant, the fact she became pregnant after that decision would not meet the definition provided.

Been honest all along. The irony is hour attitude and style and then being wanted to be taken seriously

Alinsky's picture is over your bed, just like bigrebnc. You guys copy his tactics but do it poorly.

Yeah, Jindal is legally an anchor baby so who cares? He was born in the US, all that matters.

 

[whitehall]

Keep it up lefties, you are sounding more incoherent and ignorant every day even while you hold the majority in 2/3 of the federal government.

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Apparently NEITHER of his parents were Americans. Does that disqualify him from the presidency? Many birthers make a big deal of Obama's father being Kenyan, though his mother was American.

Maybe Michael Savage was right when he said "liberalism is a mental illness". At least the liberal crap taught to generations of kids have had an effect on their understanding of the incredible freedom they enjoy today thanks to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It's ironic that the president's war on the 2nd Amendment with "presidential orders" would prevent him from purchasing a weapon for a variety of reasons including drug abuse and a questionable birth certificate. The Constitution specifies that the candidate for the presidency be born in the USA. History has shown that democrats don't give a crap about the Constitution and it is evident that they did no research into the qualification of the candidate who allegedly received a break in his college costs by portraying himself as a foreign born student.

whitehall is proof positive that libertarianism is a mental disease.

no that would be Rand Paul. whitey is proof that white supremacy is a fallacy

 

[Procrustes Stretched]

Uh oh, looks like Jindal's spokespeople speak with forked tongue...

Student Visa or Green Card? Jindal's dad was highly skilled, but he came to the USA with no job? No job?

Gov. Bobby Jindal releases his birth certificate | NOLA.com

Indeed, the chapter in Jindal's book on his parents' immigration to the United States is titled, "Yellow Pages," describing how his father, a professor of engineering in India, left behind a "great job," and "newly arrived in America with mom and not knowing a soul, had to find a job."

"Bobby Jindal, whose parents simply chose to come to the United States on a student visa instead of a green card..."
