Now, if I was clever enough to get my doctorate from Harvard and good enough to teach at Oxford and Cambridge, and to be a professor emeritus at Harvard, and to write 17 books, several of them award winners, I wonder if I would have stayed in Canada. I don't think so.
Seems to me, that if someone uses his passport as a matter of convenience, he real isn't what I want as a leader. No matter the political stripe.
