And what was I thinking? Just remembered that the man never got to eat in the White House. Long day, this...

Voted : Abraham Lincoln
Didn't Lincoln invite Frederick Douglass, both to recruit black soldiers and after his Second Inaugural Address?

^Actually, you're right. I worded the ballot title wrong and should have asked "who was the first african american invited to the White House for a formal dinner."

Voted : Abraham Lincoln
I think it was probably Abraham Lincoln, but that's just an assumption on my part.
