Hi,
If your first application was denied, then you must wait 30 days before reapplying for any Amex card. For example, if you app for Gold tomorrow, the application will be cancelled because 30 days have not passed.

I'm aware of that. But it's generally easier to get approved for a charge card (i.e., unlikely to get approved for a revolver if they wouldn't approve you for a charge). Then he could have (if accepted for green) app'ed straight away for the Delta for 1HP/2cards or SP for a denial. 
+1 @ Webhopper!
You can apply for as many Amex cards as you want till you are denied. (Don't recommend this) once you receive a denial, all subsequent apps are kicked out and no apps allowed for 30 days. This is the reason many recommend apping the charge product first then the revolver. The charge cards have lower underwriting requirements for approval and higher likelihood of approval over the revolver. Hope this helps.
