You can't do something like that all at once without using a LOT of force (ie, killing a whole mess of people).  There are two ways a "world govt" could happen.  A superpower forces it on the world through violence and threats of violence or it just evolves into it, slowly, over centuries probably.  Starting with just a few states getting together.  In a perfect world (for me at least), that would be the US and we would have started it 200 years ago...and we kind of did, but then we stopped.  How much better would it be for everyone involved if all of Mexico was folded into the US after the Mexican-American War?  Or Cuba after the Spanish-American War?  Or Canada if the War of 1812 had turned out better?  That one less so as Canada is doing pretty good.  How much better off would Cubans be today if they had been American citizens for a hundred and twenty years?  The Havana Sharks would be in the AL East.  The Havana Pirates would be in the NFC South....good times would be had by all!


There couldn't be a single President in this system I don't think.  Hell, the US in 2018 is probably too big for a single human to be in charge of everything.  You'd need a committee.
