Sources in the article are almost all either run by him or fringe and not acceptable for a BLP. The CNN source has a one sentence mention. His books are self-published. I couldn't find anything convincing when I searched. I don't think his appearance on the Thom Hartmann show etc is enough. Doug Weller (talk) 14:59, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as I found some links at News and browser but nothing convincingly better. Pinging tagger WereSpielChequers as the only other tagger Toddst is unfortunately no longer active. SwisterTwister talk 06:22, 6 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • I rarely add catimprove to an article, when I do it usually means as with this one that it is so far outside my area of expertise that I can't properly categorise it. In this case I added living people and catimprove. Then came back later and removed something 404 sourced and negative..... As for the deletion, notability is marginal at best and the subject is contentious - deletion is probably for the best unless others can find good sources.
