This whole article reads like a great advertisement for the Senator. Rangasyd (talk) 12:39, 3 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

I have again removed a whole swathe of unreferenced self-promotional material. Please add citations to all material and refer to WP:BLP and WP:SPS if you're unsure of what you can and connot write. Thanks. Rangasyd (talk) 11:27, 19 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
