I recently read The Righteous Mind and im really interested in how people really have emotion-driven opinions which they then try to rationalize. Are there any other books on this topic?

The Complete Works of Plato

Plato argues the exact opposite, actually. He was also wrong.

He did not really argued for anything. Socrates method consisted on inquiring other people's beliefs

That only really focuses on one half of the political spectrum, while ignoring/denying the fact that the other half is also built on emotions.
I'd say Hoffer's True Believer is a better book.

Antonio Damasio.
He doesn't argue exactly on those lines, but his research is somewhat regarded as the final case yet on the relationship between reason and emotion.
