The Richmond Slave Trade: The Economic Backbone of the Old Dominion is an excellent expose and would suggest a section for.--Wikipietime (talk) 05:42, 11 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Wikipietime: You can start an article on the book, if there is notable sources referring and reviewing it. See: WP:NBOOK Cwobeel (talk) 19:00, 11 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV

It seems to me that this article suffers from NPOV problems, in that the phrasing of positions like "basic healthcare for every American" sound like advertisements or slogans, and could be better expressed with more neutral language. Alkibiades14 (talk) 21:33, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

We report what sources say, not what we believe is "neutral language". As in this case we are using the subject's website, all we need is attribution to achieve NPOV (see WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV). I will make an edit to see if that works for you. - Cwobeel (talk) 21:40, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

notable?
