Obama can use the same argument to decide that, since if he could have been any person, it would be vanishingly likely that he'd be the president of the most powerful nation on earth. Thus, clearly, the rest of us (he would conclude) have no conscious experience, and he had better go ahead and be an egoist, and run the country in whatever way gives him the most personal gain.

Same argument as here, I don't think 33 bits is enough to support the complexity penalty of the prior.

This is kind of scary though, if I imagine the emperor of a multi-galactic civilization, eventually the population is large enough. It seems unlikely though, even discounting speed of light issues, that a civilization of that size would be united under one single most powerful person.
