Jindal jokes: ‘You mean I’m not white?’

The remarks came after a faux-controversy erupted when a liberal Louisiana blogger tweeted out a picture of a painting of Jindal, in which the Indian-American governor appears to be white.

“This is nonsense,” Jindal said. “We’re all Americans and one of the great things, one of the great aspects of our countries is we’ve been a melting pot and it shouldn’t matter whether you came here five minutes ago or 100 years ago.”
