Just days before President Barack Obama hosts his second state dinner on Wednesday for Mexican President Felipe Calderon, questions remain unanswered surrounding Obama’s first state dinner.

Though the infamous case of the dinner crashers will be remembered more than the curry served that night, it’s a question of exactly how uninvited guests were permitted to breach White House security to attend the state dinner for Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Nov. 24, 2009.

Aspiring reality TV stars Michaele and Tareq Salahi and party promoter Carlos Allen were all granted entry to the White House and direct access to the president, despite the fact that none of them had been invited to the dinner.
