Cort fails criteria of notability for biographies. These are the claims to notability: losing with 6.21% in an Alabama State House election, coming in last with 3 delegate votes in a Texas straw poll, and gaining 1,200 votes in the 2008 presidential primaries (and zero in in the Republican Iowa caucus); as for GNG, mere mentions and a local news profile that discuss him as someone's great-great grandson don't constitute substantial coverage.

 * Delete per nom. Fails WP:BLP and WP:POLITICIAN.--JayJasper (talk) 05:44, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete coverage is simply not enough to warrant an article. Non-notable figure.--William S. Saturn (talk) 23:19, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as subject fails to cross the notability threshold or meet WP:POLITICIAN. It's so fascinating at how un-notable he was as a Presidential candidate that he almost loops back around to notability for being such a failure... but only almost. - Dravecky (talk) 07:23, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:SNOW. Clearly fails WP:POLITICIAN. Qworty (talk) 07:39, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
