Delete[edit]

  1. Whoever it was that put the delete template on the page wrote, "Out of office, irrelevant to state politics or RW mission." Spud (talk) 12:44, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
  2. Questionable relevance to the mission. There are only three other articles that link to this one. Perhaps he was relevant in 2008 but no more. I recommend removing and changing the three other links to WP links. --Cosmikdebris (talk) 15:43, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
  3. Loser article.-President Donald J. Trump (talk) 20:40, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
  4. There's so little here that it could be merged into the GOP article. Ah gaht yer historical perspective right heah I like historical articles but I'm scratching my head as to how this guy is unique or important. We had celebrity pols before him (James J. WalkerWikipedia). Plutoniumboss (talk) 04:43, 7 February 2017 (UTC)

Keep[edit]

  1. Clearly missional and informative, no reason to delete a perfectly good article - David Gerard (talk) 20:32, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
  2. I like this historical perspective. It's like the article on Charles Coughlin in that it provides historical depth by example to a current phenomenon. Bunning is useful as a reminder that the entertainer turned wingnut turned politician is not a new thing. ScepticWombat (talk) 10:58, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
