Well, I can't speak for every year but I do know specifically that in 1996 (yes, when Bill Clinton was President), the National Championship winner was invited to the White House. FYI, that was the RIT and Edison Tech team that we are reforming right now. We've got pictures to prove it too.
The reception was led by Al Gore as Bill Clinton was not available. And, I'm sorry, if you pick a President based on whether or not you get invited to the White House, you've got to reevaluate your priorities.
