Article was created mainly due to Duensing's presidential nomination by the Boston Tea Party in 2012. However, the party disbanded several months before the election, and Duensing never appeared on any ballots. He dosen't appear to notable otherwise, by either WP:GNG or WP:POLITICIAN. The only significant coverage about him seems to connected to the tasing and shooting incident, which would seem to be an item of local interest and not notable for an encyclopedia (or at best would fall into WP:1E.

 * Redirect to Boston Tea Party (political party), specifically to the 2012 pres. campaign section. I agree with the nom. that he is not notable enough for a separate article in light of the aborted pres. campaign. He is a significant figure to the  BLP, however. --Cjv110ma (talk) 19:22, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Given that he didn't appear on any ballots, and the party dissolved prior to the election, he isn't notable for the Boston Tea Party (political party) nomination, except in the larger context of being the last presidential candidate in that party's history; but since he's already mentioned on their page in that context, there's no reason to redirect. He lost all his other political campaigns too, so that isn't notable either.  The "political commentator" claim is based merely upon a blogtalk account (with only three recent listeners noted by the site), so that also isn't notable.  The police tasing and shooting incident is therefore his only potential notability as an individual, but since it was only a local story and the shooting has been ruled justifiable, there's nothing notable about that either.HillbillyGoat (talk) 21:18, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Boston Tea Party (political party) as it was before the content was added and where he is already mentioned.--Dwc89 (talk) 03:09, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Boston Tea Party (political party). Fails WP:POLITICIAN and doesn't appear to have received enough independent coverage to meet WP:GNG. Sideways713 (talk) 15:32, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
