FEC lookup failed \u2014 should be retried to confirm political/civic giving patterns. Onomastic score correctly low (Anglo surname, no Lebanese affinity), but his Catholic institutional leadership and Boston civic gravitas make him a Tier-1 keystone: his endorsement would unlock other BC trustees, Boston Catholic business elite, and Archdiocese-aligned donors. Weakness: no documented Middle East Christian or Maronite affinity \u2014 cultivation must build the mission bridge. Do not lower score; treat as anchor prospect requiring senior-level (President/Board Chair) cultivation."
