What Rachel Maddow knows for sure

Rachel Maddow, on Leadership

Rachel Maddow is the host of The Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC as well as her show on Air America Radio.

Humans are ambitious and rational and proud. And we don't fall in line with people who don't respect us and who we don't believe have our best interests at heart. We are willing to follow leaders, but only to the extent that we believe they call on our best, not our worst. 

As told to Mamie Healey
