Comment: Subject seems to have two primary claims to notability.  Firstly, he ran for Congress as a Republican nominee in 1972.  However, he did so in a distict in which it didn't even matter who the Republican nominee was, because the district was drawn so strongly in favor of the Democrat.  The Democrat won with almost 70%.  Not only did Strickland not win, but he didn't even come in second.  So seems to fall short of the politician guidelines in .  Secondly, there is http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/01_29/b3741618.htm this article in ''BusinessWeek'' about him.  Definitely a quality secondary source.  But per , if coverage in a single secondary source is not "substantial", then multiple secondary sources are required.  Does the coverage in this article meet the standard of "substantial"?  (Note: Strickland is quoted extensively in the Wikipedia entry, but judging by the listed sources, those quotes may simply be from personal e-mail exchanges between Strickland and the creator of the article
