Jindal slams Hillary Clinton, Obama ahead of Republican debate

Washington, Aug 4: As Republican presidential candidates sought to position themselves as best able to take on Democratic front runner Hillary Clinton, Indian-American Bobby Jindal slammed both her and President Barack Obama. "This president's trying to turn the American dream into the European nightmare. He's trying to make us more dependent on government," he said during the Voters First Presidential Forum in New Hampshire, the first primary state. "Give Bernie Sanders credit - at least he's honest enough to call himself a socialist," said Louisiana Governor Jindal referring to independent Vermont senator who is emerging as a key challenger to Clinton for the Democratic nomination. "Hillary Clinton, President Obama - they're no better. They're just not honest enough to call themselves socialists," he said. Returning to a familiar theme, Jindal said if he were president, there'd be "no more hyphenated Americans, no more divisions."
