Md. second-grader gives first lady pop quiz on immigration - washingtonpost

As much as they might want to defer the conversation, the politically charged issue of illegal immigration continues to dog members of the Obama administration.

Sitting in front of a dozen schoolchildren, with the first lady of Mexico by her side, Obama told the girl: "That's something that we have to work on, right? To make sure that people can be here with the right kind of papers."

"But my mom doesn't have any papers," the student blurted as soon as the first lady had finished. - Second-grader questions first lady on immigration
