Why You Should Be a Liberal. Why You Should be a Conservative.

All sides agree that the country is more polarized than ever. I’ve written a few pieces here on PsychologyToday.com to encourage more open exchange between the poles, for example, Ten Question in the Time of Trump.

As my PsychologyToday.com article today, I offer another such effort at encouraging liberals and conservatives to at least be more respectful of the other side and maybe even to moderate their views. Aristotle’s Golden Mean has been invoked to great success for millennia. It may well be what's needed now.
