...as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis...
Snowden is a white male

We know that Snowden is unfortunately Caucasian, but he could also be Black, Latino, Indian, Muslim or Gay.

There is nothing in his story that prevents him from being a woman too. His story is very generic. This would also give rise to tackling aspects which are still considered to be taboo after all these years. Interracial relationships could be explored here and lessons could be taught around this. So, why not instill a few positive messages and concepts within the movie?

It could help others not see color or gender, as many of the previous generation do. Instead, they could see a Black Muslim hero they can believe in and aspire to be irrespective of the color of his skin or his race. We need to end the evils of blue-eyed "whiteness".
Uh-huh... scratch a Millenial... find a pastel coloured, wheelchair bound, minty smelling, Islamic, transsexual unicorn.

Meanwhile, back in "the real world"...
National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden says the exposure of malicious software allegedly linked to his former employer may be a message from Moscow.
Just to be clear... in this world, Vladimir Putin is a middle-aged, decidedly heterosexual, Caucasian male.

RELATED: Using that same logic...

...can we turn this accused killer into a "white guy"... you know... like George Zimmerman?
"The suspect is Hispanic, and some police sources and local residents have noted simmering tensions in the largely Hispanic neighborhood as the Bangladeshi Muslim population there grows."
C'mon, now... this Hispanic thing is just gonna muddy the narrative. Wouldn't a little revisionism help end the evils of blue-eyed "whiteness".
