On Wednesday, with TV cameras rolling during an event to promote healthy eating, a second-grader at a Silver Spring elementary school asked first lady Michelle Obama why the president was “taking everybody away that doesn’t have papers.”
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.”
