Who exactly is Nancy Pelosi and how did she become the most powerful woman in the history of American politics? National political correspondent for Time Magazine Molly Ball joins the podcast to talk about her new book 'Pelosi'. We discuss Pelosi's history as part of a political family, her unlikely rise to the highest level of politics, her performance as a Democratic leader in Congress, and the political style that's allowed her to outlast several GOP counterparts.
