Non-notable. I can find no evidence that this person meets Wikipedia's requirements at WP:POLITICIAN or WP:BIO. MelanieN (talk) 03:08, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. No information on this guy pops up on news, and the only places I can find the name mentioned are on content farms.  Notability is asserted, but it sounds more like a biographical description of somebody who is in politics - but does not meet the criteria above.  Besides, just because you serve with Reagan does not make you notable.  -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 03:52, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as he fails WP:POLITICIAN as a losing candidate. Cullen328 (talk) 06:23, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Wasn't able to find sources sufficient to establish the notability of this politician under the WP:GNG. As a note, while marked as BLP unsourced for a mere 2+ years, this article has been unsourced for over seven years, and is as present one of the eleven remaining unsourced BLPs from Wikipedia's first half-million articles. --joe deckertalk to me 18:02, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Wow, I feel so special for nominating it! 0;-D Where do I find the other ten? --MelanieN (talk) 23:21, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Here (they're all sourced or at AfD now). Hut 8.5 11:25, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
 * It's fun to take a look every now and then, this toolserver search takes some time but will give you a complete list. I picked away at the 2003 entries when I was bored the last few months, but we started writing a lot more articles in '04. --joe deckertalk to me 21:08, 11 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - consensus in the past few years has led us to delete almost all such articles of "also-rans". See Articles for deletion/Bruce Blakeman and Articles for deletion/Gail Goode for important precedents. Bearian (talk) 20:58, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per GNG. PlusPlusDave (talk) 23:39, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
