Let me ask you Lojo, does it bother you that Augusta National doesn't have any female members

Hopefully Barack likes to play golf.

Augusta National does have some honorary members (past champions are honorary), but Presidents are not. Though, some have been invited as guests now and then.

Ike was the only President who was a member of the club, and that was before he was elected president anyhow. And, I think the only professional golfers who are full members are Jack and Arnie.

It's not a social club...it's a golf club, so they wouldn't just have automatic honorary memberships to non golfers, even if they were President of the US....black, white, or female.

Well you got two out of three right.
