Whoa, there is no hierarchy in a legislature.

There is definitely a formal leadership team in the House who can count on Ron Paul being a rogue. You have heard of the Speaker of the House, majority and minority leaders, majority and minority whips, etc., right?

Congressional “leadership” in the Constitution and is limited to the Vice President and the Speaker of the House (who need not be a member). I would say that so-called Congressional “leadership” is generally one of the biggest sources of the problems in our government today.
