I have been to the top. In the late 90's my parents took our family to Mt Rushmore and a park ranger escorted us to the top. There was a trail that went up the side of the mountain followed by a long staircase that went directly behind Lincoln's head. I saw the hall of records and then hiked to the top of Washington's head. I was probably 10 or 11 years old at the time, so I'm sure access is more restricted now. But the answer is yes, you can go to the top of Mt Rushmore. And no, you don't need to be wealthy, or a government bigwig. You just have to have friends in the right places.
