US team mates will be busy preparing for their showdown with England at the World Cup in Qatar.
Indian American Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has a good chance of being selected as vice-presidential running mate of Mitt Romney, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, a media report has said.
Indian-American governor of Louisiana Bobby Jindal has been named as one of the '10 people who could change the world', according to British magazine New Statesman and Society.Hailing Jindal as the 'Saviour of the Republicans', the magazine describes him as, "Perhaps the best prospect for revitalising a Republican Party that has just started its tour of the wilderness, with little else to keep it going other than the sustenance provided by occasional caribou kills by Palin.
'The height of irony is that Bobby Jindal will always be known as the first Indian-American Governor, the second Indian-American Congressman and the first Indian-American Presidential candidate, regardless of his claim to be just American. Given the situation in the US, no one will be able to erase his identity in relation to his origin.'
