Potential candidates: Is Cross Town News even termed as a reliable source on Wikipedia? Wikipedia doesn't consider any local or regional agencies as reliable sources. So please take care of this point. As well as Bhim Singh is just a regional player who doesn't even has much effect in his own region. Forget about him even being in nomination of Prez candidates
