[edit] Early comments

This article is true. To the suggestor who said that 17 is too young to be elected, normally that is the case. This is what made Jason so different. I have worked with him for some time. He ran at 17 and beat out several prominent officials in the state party to get elected. Hence the news articles that I found while googling him. I think he is worthy of a page here on Wikipedia. He is pushing the DNC on the issue of youth activism. Demforlife 23:25, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Demforlife

Did a web search on topic found it had around 250k results which included both CNN and PBS. VivioFateFan (Talk, Sandbox) 00:06, 30 October 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Possible deletion of article

Why does this guy have a page? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jdiddy62 (talk • contribs) 16:58, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

This page is needed. As the youngest superdelegate, he is noteworthy, especially with the quick rise in importance of superdelegates during this primary election. His name is referred to in arguments about inexperience of the superdelegates, and so it is important for there to be a NPOV encyclopedic source about him. I read his name in a reader's comments about a news article, and so I looked him up here and was glad to find an article about him.--Beezer137 (talk) 21:38, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

People might want to weigh in here where a discussion is underway about the possible deletion of the page. I believe it is notable and well sourced, and should remain. Tvoz |talk 21:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC) ~

Are you kidding me? This person is more notable than many of the articles on wikipedia. He will likely become a very prominent politician in a few years, as he already is one of the elites of society as of now. He's a lot more notable than some random child actors who people seem to have no problem with having articles of. Some people don't realize that age is nothing on notability - this person is more notable than 99% of our society. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.70.144.72 (talk) 17:43, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
