Re: So?

Actually, I've the feeling that whoever would be President would pretty much make no difference whatshowever..

Snowden upset the Status Quo of some people who are, judging by all that's passed in the last two years, a lot more powerful, especially in the sense that they do not have to explain what they've been up to to Joe Public, than any US president past or present.

The only thing that's kept Snowden safe is the fact that Putin does not play ball nicely, and the very harsh fact that any alternative in the former USSR region is far, far worse.
