I couldn't technically, since I'm Canadian.

I'm very sympathetic towards others and because of this I would find it very difficult to act out of line and abuse my power. But really I don't know what would happen, because I'm not in such a position of power.

Presidents tend to get ridiculed over the silliest things, so I don't even want to bother.
