If the attempt was to 'caucasionize' Jindal, it succeeds. But to look like him? Nope. Clear fail.

So in addition to changing his name from Piush to the much more American sounding Bobby, in addition to changing religion from Hindu to Catholic, he had to change his skin color too? What next?

If they can do a CGI job on him during the debates to whiten him. Otherwise Pyush just won't "resonate" with the base....
