Non-notable former political candidate who ran as an independent in 2006 and was never able to get his name on the ballot. There was apparently a little news coverage over his outrage at not getting his name on the ballot but, other than one Associated Press story I found, it all seems to be trivial. Fails the politician criteria of WP:BIO. Redfarmer (talk) 23:17, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. He was covered by at least two of Tennessee's major newspapers and was the subject of the above-mentioned AP item.  Trivial coverage, maybe, but I'd like to see another good reason to delete than notability alone.  Full disclosure--I am the article's principal author. ·  jersyko   talk  00:57, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete or Merge into another more notable article. This article on its own, however, fails to meet WP:NOTABILITY.--Sallicio$\color{Red} \oplus$ 06:21, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
