Non-notable politician. Appears to have some achievements; however, individual lacks GHits and GNEWS to support WP:NOTABILITY or WP:POLITICIAN. reddogsix (talk) 02:36, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:POLITICIAN as an unelected candidate. He does have other accomplishments, but article asserts notability as a political candidate. We should not host campaign literature masquerading as a biography. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 04:21, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, per Cullen and per nominator. No significant coverage, especially on the basis of his political career. JFHJr (㊟) 05:15, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Non-notable politician with limited Google hits, and other forms of coverage. Tinton5 (talk) 07:19, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete - as a politican, he's not notable by any stretch; as an author, he's right on the margin, based on a book that got to # 24 on the New York Times bestseller list. Bearian (talk) 21:52, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Bearian. I wrote the article, and agree that this fails WP:POLITICIAN - but is on the margin as an author. I recommend removing notes regarding political candidacy. Subject is not notable - by any stretch - as a politician. Ctmadsen (talk) 02:27, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Bearian's links to a Wikipedia article. This one is from the New York Times. Drop the word '(politician)' from the title then will probably vote Keep after familiarization with Wikipedia guidelines on Authors; provided, however, that everything is in order.
