I don't know why you're being downvoted. You're right. He should have access to special information, and be involved in the world in ways regular citizens can't (meeting with terrorist organizations to work on peace, for example). But the laws of the land should apply to everyone, equally. I have no idea why that would be a controversial opinion.
