This is an abomination.
Note that item (3) discourages *opposing* candidates for public office. Yet the document makes no mention of any prohibition on *endorsing* a candidate for public office.
The sole purpose is to stifle dissent against right wing political corruption:

No SBC employee who wishes to keep his or her job would publicly endorse a progressive candidate for town dog catcher, let alone national office. A rule to that effect would be totally gratuitous.
So, absent a prohibition on *endorsing* specific candidates, the implication is clear: "Either endorse the Republican or keep your mouth shut (while others who claim to speak for you and all of Christendom embrace every manner of corruption in their lust for proximity to power)."
If 'Endorse the Republican or be quiet' becomes official policy, the SBC will be little more than a voting bloc--which fate would no doubt satisfy the culture warriors who authored this profane document, provided that a few of them get to take pictures with POTUS every so often.
