The closest thing Bill Clinton ever became to being a Boy Scout was the fact that as president he became its honorary chairman while he was president. He was NEVER a Boy Scout. However, he was a full-fledged member of DeMolay.

I personally know several Eagle Scouts who made Eagle and petitioned that Bill Clinton's name NOT be put on their Eagle Award. Their request was granted and they got George Bush's name instead of Slick's.

However for two years he refused to write the traditional letters of congratulation to new Eagle Scouts. Even then it was like pulling teeth to get them
