With the proper hitch, can a mini-van tow a car?

I'm looking into moving across the country in a few months and am considering renting a van (like a mini-van, not a moving van or anything). I do want to bring my car along though...
Could I attach something to a mini van to tow my car? (a 1998 corolla). Or would a mini-van not be strong enough?

If you're going cross country, I would suggest something made specifically for towing. A mini van's small motor would overheat and the transmission would probably burn up also. You always see people with cars and mini trucks and such hauling a boat or trailer and they're broke down halfway up a long steep grade. Try something with a good size diesel engine in it.

what make/model/year is your minivan?

well, if the minivan you are going to rent is a GMC safari(Astro Van) you can tow any car (compact cars only).
