I've listed this article for peer review because i would like to make it a GA and then an FA

As it stands, I'd say the article would be put on hold at GAN, and might be passed if some of these concerns were addressed. Cheers Nikkimaria ( talk) 23:30, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
Most of the above comments concern stylistic and organizational issues, most of which I agree with. However, I do not think the article is too long: at 55 kB (8820 words) readable prose size it is still within the suggested boundaries of WP:SIZE. Any major political figure BLP like this is going to be long, because there is much ground to cover and there has to be statement-by-statement citing.
But in addition, the article also has real substance issues, some of which were brought out in Talk:Bill Clinton/GA1 when the article lost its previous GA. For this article to reach GA/FA level, it requires the serious attention of a researcher/writer who's willing to spend time in the library. I'm interested in doing it in the fairly near future (I've done similar work on a number of other political BLPs), but I can't right now as there are some other articles I'm part way through on that I want to finish first.
