C. We're not big enough. This is the president we're talking about here, folks. This is the most powerful man in the world. We aren't big enough yet. We're close, but this is the man who single-handedly packs millions for speeches.

I believe when he was president Bush Senior attended the initial FIRST championship in '92.
