8. I think you're being a little unfair
Kerry hasn't earned my vote but:

3) I'm unaware of anything in the S&B charter that says members must agree on political positions. Some people find this shared experience significant, but I have a hard time believing in anything that supposedly binds college boys for life.

2) It is backwards. But I admit Kerry has shown more willingness to ackowledge the damage done by the Iraq war than Lieberman, Bush and Edwards . I'm willing to wait and see how he plays it in the GE, if he makes it.

1) He did not say he would support it. He did weasel and worm, and has tried to throw a sop to the bigots, but don't overstate his position. The fact that he did not outright condemn it is damning enough, but he did not support it.
