21. Just hard to imagine how you came to the conclusion that Kerry is least

liberal in the group.

he was the FIRST senator ever to submit gay-friendly legislation.

He uncovered more government corruption than any lawmaker in modern history. IranContra, BCCi, CIA drugrunning.

He advocated for public financing of campaigns since 1985.

He advocated for gays to serve openly in the military.

He advocated for released felons voting rights.

He crafted the Hate Crimes bill and the SCHIP healthcare bill for children (lost naming rights when Hatch signed on)

Steadfast against the death penalty.

For legalizing medical marijuana and for decriminalizing possession of marijuana.

And that's just a fraction.
