The result was Keep. The consensus below is that the coverage of his various activities, including but not limited to his current quixotic presidential run, is sufficient to establish notability under the WP:GNG. Eluchil404 ( talk) 03:50, 10 November 2011 (UTC) reply

I'm unable to find any reliable, independent sources about him. There are a ton of stuff from blog sites, especially his own sites. There are some short blurbs of him running in elections, but none go into detail about him. At the moment, he fails WP:GNG. Bgwhite ( talk) 06:45, 26 October 2011 (UTC) reply
Attempt to delete this article is clearly politically motivated. Subject has had 5 books published on political history, several of which are actively used as textbooks by various universities. Suspect user is an Obama supporter. Complains of no information available, yet see there was a rather large profile of Richardson that ran in the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, Baltimore Sun and Boston Herald. Candidate has also been covered by television stations and the Boston Globe.
