Dream On

NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden’s life in exile may not have to be a permanent solution. His lawyers are planning to raise the pressure on the US government to issue a presidential pardon. Snowden is currently hiding out in Russia.

I wouldn't exactly call it "hiding out."
President Barack Obama is considered to be Snowden’s best hope, but the legal team are preparing for other outcomes, believing a pardon to be the least likely of options.
I think that's a given. He would be lucky to even get a reduced charge from the Espionage Act to something where he could mount a defense.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
