What do you think of the "country of origin" segregation vs. citizenship.

I was born in India and raised in Canada. I'm never going to get permanent residency in the US based on employment.

Is the best bet just to get married to an American?

Yes, that is fastest way since there are no quotas but I'd also recommend looking at the EB1 category because even though it is significantly backed up for Indian nationals, it's still a lot faster than the EB2 and EB3 categories and oftentimes within reach of talented professionals.
Wouldn't one need a PhD or a similar degree for EB1?
