For me it's the Green Party. I'm very big on environmentalism.

1. The..................
Reformed Silly Party. I kid you not, there is a Reformed Silly Party where I lived in Florida. I guess that's not a surprise to anyone acquainted with Florida.

3. Green Party-- increasingly so more than the Democratic Party....
And not just because of environmental issues. The GP is way out in front on progressive apporaches to foreign policy, social justice, health care-- you name it, the GP represents my interests better than the modern, "reformed" Democratic Party does. If we ever manage to ditch the two party lock on U.S. politics I expect the GP to become the party of the left, the repigs to become even more deeply entrenched on the right, and the dems to be an unabashedly centrist party who's primary function is to fear change.

7. I am going to get villified
but I also identify with the libertarian, if only on ONE issue:

The drug war is a complete waste of time, money, energy and direction. The drug war should be ended now.

Other than that, the libertarians and I disagree completely.

12. My Dream Party that does not exist
It would be a TRUE reform party, based on giving power back to the people, getting rid of special interests, lobbyists, & funny money.

16. Greens
They are the real 'leftist' party. It's a shame the damn neo-Cons had to drag the Democrats to the right with them.
