Regulations have been changed during these years, better get yourself a passport.

In the past year and then for the several years before, entry into the US is getting tighter and tighter. ** plus some agents are toughter than others.

You will need a passport to enter into the US in most cases, Beyond that, you can discuss the issue at the embassy.
