Answer 1

If you leave the US for even just a minute, you need a passport. I don't actually understand what you're talking about when you say 'you hear it will be in 2009'

as far as i know, you will still need a passport in 2009. unless through some freak event mexico is annexed into the united states of america.

Answer 2

you HAVE to have a passport to go.

Answer 3

A passport is needed to travel anywhere outside the USA, especially since 911. It sometimes takes 6 weeks to obtain one after filing for one the first time, and it usually lasts for 10 years. Then, it must be renewed if you wish to still have one. It is much easier to renew a passport and keep it current than to re-file for one.

Answer 4

2008    You gotta have one now.

Answer 5

You got 4 wrong answers...all without references as there is NOTHING that says you must have a passport NOW to travel to Mexico by LAND.  On the contrary, passports are not required for Land travel to Mexico until June 2009.  Passports are required to FLY anywhere outside the U.S.  You may read the law for yourself at the site below.
