1. I had those exact sentiments in 1984 when RR was running for re-election.

My plan was to get hired at an American school in Europe, get dual citizenship, and then give up my American citizenship.

And it almost worked.

I got hired to teach elementary school in Zurich, Switzerland but the agency/school retracted its offer as Switzerland had a new law mandating that Swiss nationals be hired first.

I always wondered what would have happened if the plan had gone through.
