One of my co-workers, who happens to be Canadian, floated this prospect yesterday at lunch. I asked him if the possibility of a naturalized citizen becoming President made him more or less likely to drop his charade and become a U.S. citizen, thereby unifying his situation with his deep desires, or words to that effect.

"Less," he said.

In other words, the possibility that he himself could be President someday makes him less desirous of being a citizen.
