[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a member at Chevy Chase.  It is not in the least racist today.  It does have a history when it discriminated against blacks, Jews, etc, but [b]those days are long gone - VERY long gone.[/b]  It is true that there are few black members at Chevy Chase. My sense is that most of the membership wishes that we had more.  I think the current situation reflects the fact that most of the members socialize with like (white) families AND that many black people who could afford the club have no desire to join.  I, just one example, asked a black friend if I could propose him, and he was not interested.
One further thought.  The idea that the membership at Chevy Chase is dominated by conservatives/Republicans is so false as to be ridiculous.  The membership is composed of Democrats and Republicans and liberals and conservatives.  If I had to guess, I would say more liberals than conservatives.  I am an independent who votes for Democrats 9 times out of 10.  Most of the people at the club I discuss politics with have a similar orientation - not all but most.[/quote]
