Can somebody tell me...
why every President since 1953 made it to the Salute to Heroes Inaugural Ball but Mr. Obama couldn't find the time? I understand it's a busy night but why is it that the only ball

Sounds like a bunch of politicking to me. Like I said, every president since 1953 has made it to this ball; why not him?
