Re: New "dual" USC - travel question

As a matter of fact, my other country's passport is considerably more...

Re: For Consul Dean: New border controls could penalise Britons with dual nationality

The US cannot mandate that you violate another country's laws. Apparently,
the UK does not require you to enter on a UK passport. But some countries
have the same law as the US. E.g. a good friend...

Re: Obama seeks to create a permanent Democratic majority

I never said such a thing.

came to the US with the parent) has no...

Re: Obama seeks to create a permanent Democratic majority

Hi:

Thanks. These are powerful questions indeed. These questions may even inspire lofty ideals. However, perhaps our answers to these questions are not quite the same.

I do not feel the same...

Re: Obama seeks to create a permanent Democratic majority

I don't know. Usually, it's your own - you make your own luck. But, undeniably, some are born into such horrible conditions that they don't really have a fair chance. I don't know about those people,...

Tough - life is unfair. It is NOT our responsibility to make up for all the injustices in the world.

Re: Obama seeks to create a permanent Democratic majority

I share your views - as a liberal, but also being very suspect of such immigration reform.

I also don't understand why some states, such as California, will allow illegal immigrants to go to...

Baggage storage at Heathrow?

Hi:

Quick question. Transiting through Heathrow next week:

SAN-LAX-LHR to Frankfurt.

Actually, if you look at the final credits, this show is a copy of the Australian show, "Australian Customs and Border Protection," which I saw while on vacation there.

Re: Newborn son (US) travelling back to UK with UK passport

You're taking a lot of risk. Who did you speak to at immigration? I really hope this was not the call centre number. Will this person vouch for you at the boarding gate in the UK? Upon arrival in the...

Re: Sending Christmas packages containing food to the USA

Other than the meat products, you should be fine. You're lucky - it's much harder the other way around. Try and send any food products to Australia.

Re: Christian America?

Yes, this is very true. Richard Dawkins, atheist and professor at Oxford University, makes a similar point in his book "The God Delusion." Roland, you would probably enjoy his book.

As a matter of interest, am I the only one who had this experience? Did everyone usually get their green cards checked on the way out?

Re: In Britain for Christmas, left my GC in the States

I found all these comments about showing a GC on the way out very interesting. I recently travelled overseas, and on my way out, no one ask to see my GC - not when I checked my bags in San Diego, and...

Re: Fires - we've been evacuated!!

Yes, it is absolutely unbelievable! I am so thankful to be in Coronado - it would be hard for the fire to come all the way across the bridge! However, it doesn't stop the ash.
