Hi
Muboshgu, review follows: article moved to mainspace 6 September and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up on any overly close paraphrasing in a check on the sources; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; QPQ has been carried out. Two very minor points, you have no citation for his birth year or membership of the Democratic Party -

Dumelow, birth year is present in the
Amistad Research Center external link. I've seen the specific date of birth given as November 2 but have to doublecheck that today. Seems unlikely to be challenged and requiring an inline citation. The "factions" source talks about his Democratic Party involvement. –

Thanks
Muboshgu, I've reffed both these to the sources you indicate. Looks fine now -
