I would put Snowden as a National hero.

On what grounds, exactly?

Self sacrifice in the name of something greater then himself

I guess the Chinese Politburo is, technically, greater than Edward Snowden.

But I'm not sure what he's sacrificed - he seems to have lots of people willing to bankroll exotic travel for him.

A lot of people would enjoy a trip from Hawaii to Hong Kong to Moscow to Havana or Quito or Iceland. Some of it potentially on a G6.

I certainly couldn't afford that elaborate a travel package. I usually fly domestic coach.

Following the constitution and not orders.

Don’t worry about it the Russians will turn Snowden over when we stop supplying Al Quada arms in Syria.
