This Sunday...

An Exclusive interview with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on gridlock in Congress, the President’s meetings with Republicans, and what it will take to get her to sign off on a budget deal and entitlement reform.

Then, House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) joins us exclusively to discuss the spring thaw between President Obama and Congressional Republicans, and on if he’s leaving the GOP leadership out in the cold.

Speaking of coming in from the cold, he’s been laying low the past couple of years, but a new book is bringing Jeb Bush back in to the national spotlight. He may be talking immigration between the pages, but he’s got tongues wagging with his open talk of a potential 2016 run. We sit down with former Florida Governor – and presidential brother and son – Jeb Bush about political dynasties, Bush fatigue, and his upcoming pow-wow with top Republican donors.

Plus, former White House Communications Director Anita Dunn, former Speaker of the House and Republican Presidential Candidate Newt Gingrich, former Bush and Romney adviser Alex Castellanos and Democratic Strategist Donna Brazile on the long road to 2016, Rand Paul’s long talk on the Senate floor, and why you won’t be seeing any more long lines for White House tours any time soon.

Sunday at 9am & NOON ET.

This Sunday...

Republican Presidential candidate Rick Santorum is 'all in' in Iowa. He'd been to every corner of the state. He's working hard to rise to the top, and after a key endorsement he says he's gaining traction. But does he have enough time to spoil the party?

Then Former U.S. Congressman Bob Walker, a Gingrich supporter and Former NH Governor John Sununu, a Romney supporter, explain why their guy will go the distance.

Then, extending the payroll tax cut and unemployment benefits; they are set to expire at the end of the year. Will either side blink? And who will get the blame when voters go to the ballots in the fall? We ask former Obama White House Communications Director Anita Dunn and Republican Tom Davis a former member of congress.

Finally, after announcing massive cuts to its service – What’s the future of the USPS? Postmaster general and CEO, Patrick Donahoe joins us for an exclusive interview.

It’s all this Sunday on State of the Union with Candy Crowley at 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. ET

This Sunday on State of the Union...

With a plunging stock market and woeful unemployment numbers, are we heading toward a double dip recession? Where does the economy go from here? We’ll ask Steve Forbes, the CEO of Forbes Incorporated and Pres. Obama’s former top economic adviser, Larry Summers.

Then, Candy sits down with California Gov. Jerry Brown in his first national interview since his election last year. He says he’s “alarmed” at the state of the country. What is he doing to turn things around in California, and what does he think President Obama should be doing for the country?

We’ll also break down the last minute deal to avert a fiscal crisis and raise the country’s debt ceiling. Which side—if any—came out ahead, and where do things go from here? The so-called “super committee” of members from both bodies of Congress will have less than three months to reach a compromise. Is that possible? We’ll ask former White House communications director Anita Dunn and former Republican congressman Tom Davis.

And finally, we’ll discuss the brutal violence taking place inside Syria and alleged cyber attacks emanating from China with Vice Adm. Mike McConnell, former director of national intelligence.

And check out our pre-show rundown here.
