Is Beta Sigma Phi a service sorority? I am sorry, I am not that familiar with it.

It's a non-academic social and service sorority. And it's huge. You can read more about it here and here.

As much as I thought I would never vote Republican, I'm really liking Huckabee. And not just because he's a Teke...because he did a commercial with Chuck Norris!

No problem Thetagirl! I love when people ask about my beloved sorority. NittanyAlum is right. We are an international non-collegiate social/service sorority. And we are VERY big!! Yay! :-) There are several first ladies that are honorary Beta Sigma Phi's.

Well, it seems that none of the candidates art true Social Greek Members!

That seems scary to me as they were never trained in how to do anything!

I'm not sure about that. Pat Buchanan and Donald Rumsfeld's wives are Theta's as well as the co-founder of the Iowa Women's Caucus/1st female to chair the Republican National Committee (Mary Louise Epperson Smith).I could name several others who are Republican as well. U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill is a democrat however.

While the "famous" alums may seemingly be skewed in one direction politically, the membership as a whole is more than likely split evenly (atleast it was in my chapter).

Ron Paul is a LXA - I'm surprised you didn't know that.

Bill Richardson is a Delt but as usual the most qualified candidate is not the one selected, sigh.

In addition, it appears that Carol Paul (Ron Paul's wife) is an Alpha Xi Delta.
