4. Eugene, Oregon...
Oregon, and especially Portland and Eugene, have a long tradition of demonstrations, and many of them turn unruly. Bush's father, former President George Bush, used to refer to Portland as "Little Beirut" because of the protesters he encountered during his visits.

5. Arcata, California
As liberal as Berkeley or Santa Cruz, but more genuine and chilled out about it.

there are marginally-less-regressive-than-others cities, but all cities in America are dedicated to the proposition that money is more valuable than people adn more valuable than the earth.
