Root [Verizon] No root?

I've searched and even tried three different methods of rooting for the Galaxy S4 and so far all three have failed.

I ask this in all seriousness, is root not possible on the Verizon S4? I just got the phone yesterday thinking Samsung phones were easier to root than Moto phones so I didn't really look into it before buying, but damn even the Droid Razr on JB was easier to root than this is.

Please Help!

EDIT: I wanted to add that I tried the Odin3 method, Motochopper, and changing to the older kernel.

If it helps...
