If Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal has plans to run for national office, his appearance on the Season 6 premiere of "Duck Dynasty" will land him more exposure than a "Meet the Press" interview.
 A&E Network has announced that Jindal will indeed be featured with the West Monroe Robertsons on the 9 p.m. June 11 premiere.

Jindal traveled to the Duck Commander headquarters in February, where he presented the Robertson family with the inaugural Governor’s Award for Entrepreneurial Excellence.

While there, the governor, who was accompanied by First Lady Supriya Jindal and their children, was apparently woven into the storyline.

"It was really neat to have the governor on our show," Willie Robertson told The News-Star. "His family loves watching the show, and they all came up to West Monroe to participate.
 "He did a great job and is used to cameras being around, so he was natural. And playing yourself always helps."

Jindal said he couldn’t reveal his plot line because of a confidentiality agreement.
 "The Robertson family epitomizes what it means to be a homegrown Louisiana business" Jindal told The News-Star. "We are proud of the economic boom Louisiana is seeing, and a large part of this is due to the expansion of individuals who run small businesses like the Duck Commanders do.


"My family and I had so much fun hanging out with the Robertsons and participating in the filming of Duck Dynasty was a highlight."

The Robertsons, who were credited with the surprise election of 5th District U.S. Rep. Vance McAllister, R-Swartz, last fall, couldn’t escape politics when the governor was on site. Willie and Jase both endorsed McAllister, who was an unknown underdog.

In February, Willie Robertson was asked if they could help elect Jindal president in 2016.

"You never know," said Willie, who was reminded that when he was asked on a network news program last year who he would support for president in 2016, he tabbed Jindal.

Jindal, however, deflected any questions about whether he will run in 2016 or whether he would seek the Robertsons’ endorsement if he does.

"I haven’t made any decision about that," the governor  replied.
