Strongly agree

No, but increase our military presence along the southern border

This statement aligns well with Dole's political views. He was a strong supporter of the military and believed in stronger immigration enforcement. Increasing military presence along the border could be seen as a way to achieve both.

Agree

Yes, but make it a high-tech surveillance barrier instead of a physical one

Agree

No, this would be too costly and ineffective

Dole might agree with this statement as he was a fiscal conservative and might have seen a physical wall as too costly and ineffective. However, he did support stronger immigration enforcement, so he wouldn't fully agree with not building a wall.

Agree

No, keep the current wall but do not build more of it

Dole might agree with this statement as it aligns with his support for stronger immigration enforcement without the cost of building a new physical wall. However, the concept of a 'current wall' is anachronistic as there was no extensive border wall during Dole's political career.

Disagree

He did support stronger immigration enforcement, but there's no evidence to suggest he would have supported a physical wall.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and Mexico should pay for it

The idea of Mexico paying for a border wall is a more recent political idea that was not part of the discourse during Dole's political career. It's unlikely he would have supported this.
