The Republican Presidential Nomination with Doug Burgum
The Republican Presidential Nomination with Doug Burgum
What does it take to throw your hat into the ring of Presidential hopefuls? Sharon is joined by North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum to hear directly from the Republican Presidential candidate ahead of the first presidential debate. In a time of cold wars, culture wars, and economic unknowns, Burgum makes the argument that it’s time for the federal government to refocus its priorities. Burgum and Sharon discuss how the Republican nominee will need to win over some political independents, who often fall into the category of the exhausted majority. Gov. Burgum explains why he believes his experience in both the public and private sectors make him the ideal candidate to do just that.
Special thanks to our guest, Gov. Doug Burgum, for joining us today.
