OTHER INFORMATION
Darren McCann interview with Cowboy State Politics with host David Iverson.
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Greater risk to mother, fetus death
Chemical abortion drugs should meet essential safety standards (such as in-person consultation with a medical doctor) and require reporting to gather evidence on reactions and outcomes.
Strongly Disagree
These drugs should not be used, especially as a form of pure birth control.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Disagree
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
Property taxes should be abolished as well. If the government can confiscate private property if you do not pay your taxes, then you really never own it.
What is your position on the minimum wage?
I am fine where it is. It was never meant to be a life earning wage.
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
No
Absolutely not. This is just another form of discrimination.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
The only time I MIGHT consider this is if said church, or religious building, is in the case of terrorism. Otherwise, never.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
HEALTHCARE
What most closely matches your view on healthcare: A) Healthcare for all should be guaranteed and funded by the government with no private healthcare option. (includes "universal healthcare," "medicare for all," etc.) B) Healthcare insurance funded by the government should be available for all who want it, along with private healthcare options. C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.
D. This has been an economic failure, is unsustainable, and will eventually be insolvent.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
NONE!!!
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
Is it not obvious?
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
Yes, if the surrounding Muslim countries really wanted peace, there would be peace. They have, however, vowed to remove Israel and its people from the face of the earth.
IMMIGRATION
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
At this point the border should be completely shut down to immigrates, rule of law re-established, deport any and all illegal immigrates that have entered the country. Once accomplished, then and only then, LEGAL immigration can then be established.
EDUCATION
The state should fund education by allowing dollars to follow the child through programs which protect parents' freedom to choose their child's school – public, private, or homeschool.
Strongly Agree
VALUES
Children have the right to be protected from sexually explicit materials in publicly funded libraries, including school libraries.
Strongly Agree
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from harm, including from gender ideology and bodily mutilation.
Strongly Agree
Parents should have the right to make decisions for their minor children.
Neutral
Generally speaking yes, but for parents to agree to allow minor children to proceed with above mentioned procedures should be considered child endangerment
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
Strongly Disagree
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.
Strongly Agree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Christian, Values are all in the Bible
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
DEI is a threat, especially in the military.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women's shelters, or prison.
Strongly Agree
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Which comes closest to your view? (Select all that apply) A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost. C) Stricter environmental laws undermine U.S. energy independence and deter development of reliable electricity sources. D) Climate change is real and requires urgent policy action.
A, C
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Fossil Fuels. But continue to develop "alternative" sources- while also taking into account the waste of wind mills and solar panels- this is not even scrutinized.
ABOUT YOU
Have you ever been penalized for sexual misconduct in either civil or criminal court? If so, please explain.
NO
Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.
NO
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
As noted in the US Constitution and Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights and Federalist Papers.
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and religious liberty, which of the following best describes you overall?
Very Conservative
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
Neutral
2ND AMENDMENT
