I don't remember him even addressing the issue of illegal immigration. His campaign was based on reforming the federal government. Taxes, trade and SS. All of which are badly in need of reform. And none of which are being reformed by the current administration. Forbes would have been a great conservative president, and we badly need a conservative president. I still have not forgiven the bustbots or the Keys supporters for their unfounded attacks on Steve Forbes. Well they wanted Bush and they got Bush and we went from almost 300b in surplus to 500b budget deficit. 500b dollar trade deficits, new entitlements and jobless recoveries. Thats a lot bushbots.

Well, no doubt he would have been a great president, along the lines of Bush, (I believe, but with even beter financial credentials.)
As to his immigrant approach, I don't know how you can ascertaing them at this point, since he is not running for anything but I stand by my experience at the convention. Perhaps if can be verified that he was consulting Jack Kemp on this issue, we know Jack's position well. Was Kemp associated with the Forbes campaign? I think he was.
