I understand your point. However, NIC membership has been quite fluid, and some groups have been members and non-member depending on which year it is. NPC membership has remained constant for decades. The list is more of what has been called social organizations. I think I will add an asterisk to Mr. Clinton with both the APO and post White House info. Truman and Eisenhower may have been post White House, but don't quote me on that. I also did not try to discuss honoraries except Phi Beta Kappa.
