I assume your tagging of the article is about the god comment. I tried to be neutral. I am working on filling out the list of senators and noticed that this one had a lot of posts about this news item. lets talk about how to improve it.

I have three concerns.
The article is heavily weighted toward a controversy. A biography should also include personal history, career, personal life, etc. If you plan to add that, then there's no issue. If not, there is potentially a issue of WP:UNDUE and WP:POV.
There are way too many external links - see WP:ELNO for the guidelines.
The section "News" is not appropriate for an encyclopedia (see WP:NOTNEWS). Perhaps changing it to "Controversy", or simply merging it with other content about his political career would be best.
