Your comparison with the Prime Minister isn't really accurate. It would make more sense to comapre the PM to the Leaders of the House and Senate, and I don't believe those positions are decided by the general electorate but by the party?
Sorry, but Nanci Pelosi isn't the Head of Government. The most powerful roles those positions contain are probably committee chairs and being influential in the determining of House/Senate floor schedules. No where near the responsibility of a top position in the executive branch. And they're elected by a majority of votes in the House or Senate, not by the Party.
