Why is Burgum announcing on the same day as the former VP?
Doesn't make any sense to me: it just means you have less publicity and Burgum doesn't have the luxury of high name recognition. Why isn't he waiting for another week or month?
If Burgum had any common sense or political instincts, he wouldn't announce in the first place! Unless, of course, he knows he's not running to win, but rather to fundraise for a super PAC, or try to leverage some future appointment, or just raise his national profile for whatever reason.
