Quotes by Jason Altmire (?)

“As the Wason study demonstrated, people’s unwillingness to consider that they might be wrong can prevent them from finding the right answer. This type of motivated reasoning is common among partisans.”

“Unfortunately, the voices of those on the ideological extremes are magnified due to the lack of engagement of those in the center.”
