Your bf is protestant and you are Catholic you have been married before If you want to marry each other who would marry us?

If you wish to be married in the Catholic Church and your first marriage was in the church, you will need to apply for an annulment (Catholic divorce) before you can remarry in the church. If you wish to marry in the protestant church, they do not have any laws that I know of that would prevent you from marrying in their church. If you have a civil marriage and no church marriage, then you can get married in the Catholic Church since civil marriages are not recognized as a holy sacrament and the covenant with God did not take place.

Can a person who was married and divorced while a protestant be admitted to the roman catholic faith?

The church frowns on divorce whether Catholic or not, and recognizes the protestant marriage as valid unless it is annulled. Thus the protestant, if remarried, cannot enter the catholic church unless previous marriage is annulled. If the protestant has NOT remarried, then he/she CAN enter the roman catholic faith, but cannot remarry unless previous marrige is annulled. A lot also depends on the person's previous spouse faith and form of marriage if spouse was Catholic. A sit down with priest would be advised.
