A green card is evidence that a foreigner is a lawful permanent resident of the U.S. but not yet a U.S. citizen.
It is a plastic card about the size of a credit card and a foreigner carries it in his or her wallet as form of immigration ID.
Like a U.S. citizen, a green card holder can work at any job and can use the card to return to the U.S. after international travel.
A green card is not U.S. citizenship.
You cannot use it to obtain a U.S. Passport, for example.
Those who obtain green cards based on marriage to U.S. citizens must maintain the card (and remain married) for a minimum of two years and nine months before submitting a U.S. Citizenship Application.

You will not normally succeed if you cannot show convincingly that you will suffer persecution if returned to your home country.
An exception would be Humanitarian Asylum which does not require a risk of future persecution; horrific past persecution is sufficient.
Asylum (a.k.a Political Asylum), provides relief to foreigners who are likely to suffer persecution based on a protected ground if returned to their home country.
