From the Britannica:
" believing that government should be active in supporting social and political change : relating to or supporting political liberalism

Liberal : of or belonging to the liberal political party in countries like Canada and the United Kingdom

: not opposed to new ideas or ways of behaving that are not traditional or widely accepted"

But is there a scale of liberalism, and if so, where does Kerry place?

He is not as liberal as Bernie Sanders, for example.
