21. He was against gay marriage being in the Dem PLATFORM.

You do understand the difference, don't you?

If it's in the platform it means there is consensus for it within the Dem party, when, at this point, there is not.

Kerry thinks gay marriage should be handled more deliberatively. First, marriage, itself, needs to be dealt with as a church/state issue, and if that means that the civil and religious aspects are handled ENTIRELY SEPARATELY, so be it.

Your post against Kerry implies that there is no room for his voice in fighting the Bush regime. Many of us disagree, because he happens to be the most experienced voice we have in the Dem party when it comes to exposing government corruption and incompetence. So far, he has uncovered more government corruption than any lawmaker in modern history and yet, YOU want him to shut up and go away.

Interesting, that you would alter his remarks about gay marriage to draw the worst possible conclusion.

When his remarks on this are fully comprehended you will see greater light towards a solution than you think.
