This article was flagged as a non-encyclopedic (WP:TONE), self-written puff piece (WP:COI) more than 3 years ago and no attempt has been made to correct it. In addition, many things in the lede are unsubstantiated and appear to violate WP:NPOV and WP:NOR. —Kerfuffler cry

Keep fails WP:SOLDIER but passes WP:BASIC, though cleanup is required. Mztourist (talk) 11:39, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - the suvject clearly passes notability. The nominator is reminded that AfD is not for cleanup. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 17:50, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The article has references to an NPR review of his book and a profile by The Hill. There's also a small review from Publishers Weekly [1] while NYT has an article about his radio address for the Democratic Party [2] and an opinion columnist profiled him [3]. I think these references show that he is notable and he passes WP:GNG. Z1720 (talk) 23:46, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
