I agree that it's a great program, but under the current rules, you won't get it reliably unless you are a US Citizen.
This will change soon (this summer) when Lawful Permanent Residents with Global Entry will be fully integrated into TSA Pre✓™ if they include their Pass ID number into the field for Known Traveler Number when completing their details for the airline. There will remain the possibility of random exclusion for security reasons: just as US citizens are liable for random exclusion.
