Of the seven in the survey, definitely the Green party, although I don't get too excited about the environmental issues the Green Party was founded on.
I might also consider Vermont's Progressive Party.

I don't know enough about the various "socialist" parties to make an educated guess as to which one of them would fit me best...I'm guessing they are pretty much all wacko.  I wish we had a functional Democratic Socialist Party like the NDP.

I'm in the right party I think:

1) Libertarian Party    91%
2) Constitution Party   68%
3) Republican Party     55%
4) Reform Party         45%
5) Democratic Party     36%
6) Green Party          23%
7) Natural Law Party    18%

I could never join the Constitution Party though - too religious, and I'm agnostic.

That site is somewhat out of date as the Reform and Natural Law parties have imploded (altho the Reform party might be able to emulate the phoenix)  Also, its questions don't measure the intensity of feeling on a particular issue.

And some of the questions are two-parts such as:

Increase/maintain/decrease taxes on gifts and inherited wealth

I'd increase inheritance taxes and decrease taxes on winnings (i.e. lottery).

My results are:

1) Green Party          93%
2) Democratic Party     71%
3) Natural Law Party    71%
4) Reform Party         50%
5) Libertarian Party    43%
6) Republican Party     21%
7) Constitution Party   14%

I would have to pick the Constituion Party.  Socially, they more closly match my agenda, but I really don't have a 3rd Party I think I would fit well into.

I don't trust that test. It says I'm a Green and I'm not. I like some of the things the Greens stand for, and I like some of the things the Libertarian Party stands for. I do definitely not agree totally with either party.

I would have to found my own third party. I am uncomfortable with aspects of all of them, including Socialist Workers and Workers World. I'm uncomfortable with the aspects of the Democratic Party, too, but they have an electoral base, and that's what America's Marxists, Leninists, Trotskyites, Stalinists, and Maoists need at present.

The Constitution Party, I even briefly joined it but I broke with them over the death penalty.
What is their position on the Death Penalty?

I didn't like that test...Too much Economy, too little else...
still 95% Green, 73% Dem, ... 16% Constitution sounds accurate enough.
