Lord Liaden Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 14 hours ago, Old Man said: Congratulations! But we're waiting for Harry and Meghan to give birth in America; their child would be eligible for both the throne and the presidency. Of course, the only way for him to occupy both offices simultaneously would be if we added the UK as a state. (Well, four states, if we're in a generous mood.) Well, the UK is going through a painful divorce right now, and such are often vulnerable to rebound relationships. I hear America's current head has shown a fondness for a particular type of foreigner... RDU Neil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wcw43921 Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Nope--Clinton played golf too. You'd be hard pressed to find a President who didn't play golf in the 20th century--Carter is missing from that list, as is Theodore Roosevelt. And FDR would have certainly played, had not polio stolen the use of his legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattern Ghost Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 Depends on who the President is golfing with. I think a lot of work can get done on the golf course, and does. Not sure that applies to the current occupant or not, though. Sociotard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
