In the US, the Democrats are definitely the best mainstream party, and the Republican party is the not-really-all-that-good party. Pro-Science Democrats are the ones you actually need; Pseudoscience Democrats are likely worse than typical Republicans.

What makes you rank the Green Party the best in everything other than science?

I am a socialist in economic policy and the Greens are also socialists. I support a noninterventionist diplomatic foreign policy which the Greens also support. The Greens are also much more socially progressive than the other parties.

If it was not for the fact that they are anti-nuclear and anti-GMO then they would be perfect. It is a big shame that there are no major progressive politicians who are pro-science and the only major pro-science politicians are neoliberals, hypocrites on social policy and would be happy to bring America into endless wars.
