It was a good one.

I need to take one of those tests that indicate what my political beliefs are. I put liberal because I'm not republican, but somehow I don't think it should be quite so simple.

Welcome to Debate Politics! I recently was confused about how to label myself, so I just say I'm an independent. I'm me and you're you :) We don't always need a label. But regardless, happy birthday and welcome!

True. :) And thanks!

I took a test. It said I was with the green party. That's not an option here.

Well, actually Reagan proved that, way the hell back in the day.

Franken is amazing. Have you read any of his accomplishments, or are you just knee-jerk reacting to where he's been?

There is the "other" option. We also have the Green Party as a user group. A user group is what appears below your name. Mine is "Independent" and I have stars as the symbol. There is the option of selecting the Green Party, which will give you green roses.

Oh cool! Thanks. :) I'll see if I can find them.

I looked all over user groups, and could not find green party.

If you click on "User Control Panel" at the top right of the page it will bring you to your control panel. On the left side under the "My Account" tab you will see "Permission Groups." The Green party is in there. You would click to join the Green Party, and then click to identify yourself as a member of the Green Party. PM me if you have any questions :)

I also had to check off to "identify as a member of this group" before it would update. But thank you very much! :)
