Which American political party is the most liberal of the major parties?

If you are talking about today's political parties then, on the average, the Democrats are considered more liberal and the Republicans are considered more conservative. However, there are liberal Republicans and conservative Democrats. The Republicans tend to favor less government and the Democrats tend to favor more government, when dealing with domestic problems and individual and states' rights. Republicans tend to favor economic laws that regulate as little as possible. Democrats favor legislation that regulates industry for the protection of the consumer. Democrats tend to favor some sort of government aid for those individuals who need assistance. A Green Party was created in the US in 1984 and it is much more liberal than the Democrats, but it cannot be considered a "major" political party yet because of it's small membership. I believe the "Greens" do have influence in the politics of some European nations.
