[edit] Richard Lara
Unpublished philosopher. The article claims he is running for congress, but there is no independent confirmation of that, so he is unlikely to be a major-party candidate. Chick Bowen 06:42, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

- Delete; a professorship at a community college seems to be his greatest claim to fame, and that doesn't pass WP:PROF.--Prosfilaes (talk) 08:33, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete not yet notable as a professor or a politician.DGG (talk) 22:28, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete very non-notable, possibly vanity. Xxanthippe (talk) 11:25, 19 February 2008 (UTC).
- Delete. A Ph.D. and a community college teaching post are not enough for WP:PROF. As for the congress run: it's Dana Rohrabacher's district, Rohrbacher should win re-election easily, and it seems that his challenger will be Huntington Beach mayor Debbie Cook. So, whatever stage Lara's campaign reached, it's less than either of those two and not enough for notability either. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:09, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
