So once again, we hear Ed Snowden essentially rag on about how bad America is, and once again we will talk in our next episode about why this is such a serious issue.  Not the spying scandal per se, but the defamatory scandalization, with an ends-justify-the-means mentality to boot.  What the Heir says he wants to do, is once both scandals are over, is to see launched a goodwill ambassador initiative, to prove to "swing state" countries that we really aren't so bad after all, and in fact better than rival countries in those things that matter the most.  For example, if we do get rid of Prism, and hence the ability to spy on those rival countries that are spying on us, we can let the swing state countries know that we're taking the high road, and that the spying rival countries are taking the low road and not worthy of the swing state countries' moral investment.  We can also point to the fact that we are the most generous country in the world when it comes to charity through established charitable organizations.  And whatever progress we're making in helping getting the people of Tacloban on their feet again, we can point to and also point out how the rival countries don't even come close.  Most of these swing state countries are in Africa, but we can also get Papua New Guinea on our side too.  A highly underestimated potential ally, for all the reasons the Bachelor has discussed for years now.  Then we get to have most of these swing state countries on our side, and we can really sink China and Putin-era Russia as a result.  After all it was China that bedraggled most African countries with a crummy rail system, and they could use our assistance to fix it since it seems as though China essentially up and left.  The Heir intends for America to recover completely this way from the Ed Snowden defamations, and then Ed Sniveler himself comes up and says, well I think you partly owe me credit for this, because you wouldn't have this goodwill initiative if it weren't for me.  And then we'll say, no, Ed Snowden.  We in the initiative did this all ourselves.  We owe you nothing and we give you nothing.  No medals, no statue, no monument, no nothing, go home.
