Only now, in 2018, has mother (me) been able to "share my story."

Wonder what the back story is on this ?

Her story would be better if it were comprehensible.

The late Charles Krauthammer was right about the rules of good writing. The use of the first-person pronoun in opinion writing is a cardinal sin.

So sad nobama is too choomed out to care.

Yes, why did you think a Green Card holder of the USA should use such to be a international traveler?

One would think a Green Card holder would do everything possible to be/stay put in the USA.

What question did the author’s daughter answer incorrectly? So far as I can tell, the author does not say. As a result, her story doesn’t make much sense.

A Green card is a legitimate ID to enter the US from Canada.

All people in prison are separated from their loved ones. Oh how awful. We need to all write the President and complain about this. Sarc.

wow. if this is true (and i don’t doubt it is even though it’s been a long time since 2006), what a travesty of injustice and a simultaneous loss for our nation and this family.

perhaps our border agents at the time would not have been so jaded and incompetent in this case, if they’d had good leadership and a secure border at the time. very sad story.

build the wall Mr President. secure the border. secure the interior. deport illegal aliens with families intact. enforce the existing laws. ban chain-migration. support ICE. encourage self-deportation. support legal immigrants. may God help you to keep your promises.

There is no back story-—the main complaint is that illegals are treated better at the border than her daughter,a legal immigrant,was treated at the border.

She has a point.
