Keep or at the very worst, draftify. The subject suffers from having been active decades before the internet age and died before there would have been obituaries online. However, he co-founded a significant US political party and led a large split of "Cochranites". A search in Google books shows a plentiful supply of coverage in dozens of books which shows his influence was significant. Of course, this article needs better sourcing, hopefully the original author can help with this.

Keep There are hundreds of academic articles accessible through the Wikipedia Library that reference Bert Cochran and/or his work. Easily meets notability standards. That said, the article needs citations. --

Keep. I don't see any policy-based reason to delete. The article needs specific citations but the references/sources in the article already meet
WP:AUTHOR and probably
WP:GNG as well. Even a pretty simple google search on his quoted name brings up multiple multiple reviews (
[1][2][3][4][5]) of his works and is mentioned often in published books and literature (one example
[6]).
