Doug Burgum (R-ND) released a video on Monday promoting his plan to \u201cget America back on track\u201d and potentially entering the 2024 Republican presidential race. Burgum is serving his second term as North Dakota&#8217;s governor and plans to launch his campaign Wednesday in Fargo.<\/p>\n<h3>A Self-Made, World-Class Business Leader<\/h3>\n<p>Burgum is an Arthur, North Dakota, native who graduated from North Dakota State University before earning a master\u2019s degree from Stanford University. His startup tech company, Great Plains Software, was sold to Microsoft in 2001.

Two other former governors, former Vice President Mike Pence of Indiana and Chris Christie of New Jersey, are expected to announce their Republican presidential bids this week. The GOP candidate field now adds up to 13 potential nominees, compared to two declared candidates running against President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<h3>Unleashing Energy Production and Returning Power to the States<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cInstead of shutting down American oil and gas, we should unleash <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-releases-list-of-president-trumps-accomplishments-and-it-is-historic\/\" title=\"White House Releases List of President Trump\u2019s Accomplishments \u2013  And It Is Historic!\">energy production<\/a> and start selling energy to our allies instead of buying it from our enemies,\u201d Burgum said, boasting his governorship&#8217;s record of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/u-k-strikes-free-trade-deal-with-new-zealand\/\" title=\"U.K. strikes free trade deal with New Zealand\">cutting red tape<\/a> and bringing the state to a surplus. \u201cHigh taxes, red tape, and inflation are choking every American.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStates created the federal government, not the other way around,\u201d Burgum said. \u201cLet&#8217;s shrink the federal government and return power to the states.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Pushing for a Better America<\/h3>\n<p>Burgum&#8217;s video highlights his plan to push for a better America, focusing on energy production, cutting red tape, and returning power to the states.
