I really am not being ficicious and I would like answers from knowledgeable people. I just can't find anything she has done for the Country other the the liberals in San Francisco and would like substantial answers about her - not about her party or politics.

She made it there fair and square.
What she does there though, is under a microscope and currently she's frying under her own lens.

She was the House Democratic Leader and when the Dems took the majority of the House in the election they felt confident in her ability based on her proven leadership skills and voted her as the Speaker of the House.

By process of elimination;
Gephardt was thrown out in 2004, leaving Nancy as the party head.
That is all that is nessesary to be speaker.
If you are top dog in the party, and the party assumes power, you're the Speaker.

Let's see. She was voted into office by the people. The party that she belongs to gained majority of power. She then got voted in by her majority party. The wonders of democracy, huh?

I believe the person is selected by the majority of the house. Pelosi made the most noise as the democratic voice of the house, and therefore won her the most votes.

She was the ranking Democrat in the House when the American voters kicked the corrupt, blood-smeared lunatic right-wing crackpot party to the curb last November.
Any more simple-minded questions?

The same thing that George Bush did to qualify him to be president.

She may have done something, but I do not know of one thing she has done since getting in office.

You have to have seniority in the House AND you have to belong to the majority party.
