Kerry ranked first among all Dems with a near-perfect 96 score -- the highest lifetime rating of any presidential candidate in the LCV's tabulations. The Massachusetts senator has a long history of environmental stewardship, including helping organize the first Earth Day in 1970 and chairing Earth Day New England 20 years later. The organization was so impressed with Kerry's environmental record that it endorsed him prior to the New Hampshire primary -- the earliest nod in its 34-year history.
