Daniel Burke completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2020. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Burke's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- The Anglo-American coup against President Donald Trump must be ended, and the unelected "secret government" types who perpetrated it should be jailed for attempting to overthrow our system of government.
- The Artemis Program, which President Trump defined in 2017 with Space Policy Directive 1, is capable of becoming the engine of our recovery post-COVID. We must increase its budget and fully expand the mission to the full industrialization of the Moon and Mars.
- The late Lyndon LaRouche should be exonerated immediately. To clear his name of the invented crimes laid on Mr. LaRouche would be a powerful step toward international cooperation between the US, Russia, China, India, and others.
