If not, how much would you counteroffer?

(If you aren’t an American, assume for this hypothetical that you were suddenly granted citizenship and all other requirements are waived.)

    No. First your going to be somewhat wealthy to begin. Secondly the pay is fairly good and third it just is not worth the headache.

    I am a well of person and there is no amount of money that would interest me to do something that illegal much less immoral. Few wealthy people need to take illegal money when they can generate it legally.

    I think the majority of people who would take money in this position would do it out of ego over any other motive.

      This is assuming you just become president with your current status of wealth. Maybe the internet made a meme and decided elect you “for the lulz”, maybe the electors just don’t care, maybe mass hysteria, divine intervention, doesn’t matter. In this hypothetical; You suddently become president, this is a question of whether you give a shit about ethics (or if you even have a moral compass at all).
