sanders said his strong showing should make people believe that they could send a message to washington. >> it is asking working people and middle class people to stand up and fight for their rights, help us take on a class that who's agreed is doing so much damage to our economy. and 80% of young people didn't vote last election. i'm very proud that we're bringing young people into the process and ree vitalizing american democracy and iffer wire going to change america that is what we got to do. >> more on the sanders campaign. good morning. >> good morning, carol. bernie sanders did get started quite early today here in new hampshire as well. with that stop in beau, new hampshire around 3:00 eastern time. here in keen she's expected to see supporters. this is very much seen as bernie sanders country. in part because of geographically he's from vermont which is a neighboring state. also politically because the state has such a large number of independent voters who are really expected to buy into his arguments of economic inequality, as well as campaign finance reform. my colleague chr

that's a rounding area in washington d.c. when we spend some $600 billion a year on defense alone, and i can tell you that certainly i'm a fiscal conservative. i want to make sure we're making the best financial decisions, but as we start to look at this, you know, what he didn't mention is that out of the people that have been released, we know that one is now an al qaeda leader in yemen and was actually in detention at gitmo. we need to close it, but we need to close it by bringing them to justice and having them go before a military tribunal. we've been sending millions of dollars on attorneys to defend them, and yet, here we are trying to make a political statement instead of really addressing the concern for all of this as americans. it is bipartisan. we do want to make sure that our homeland is secure. but i can tell you having been down there, we don't even let the military men and women who guard them have their real names on their fatigues for the potential of retribution from these hardened terrorists that are there

stay active with boost®. >>> live now to the washington hilton in washington d.c. this is the national prayer breakfast. aroma downy and mark burnett are speaking. producers of the tv mini series the bible. you hear them talking riebt now. when they are done president obama will come to the podium and we expect him to talk. the clock is ticking and the insults flying for republicans trying to seize momentum in next week's republican primaries. chris christie is holding a town hall in keane right now. doubling down after the dismal finish in iowa. look for christie to again take swipes at marco rubio who enjoyed a surge in iowa. in the meantime the biggest brawlers are the two front runners with donald trump accusing trump-cruz of stealing votes in iowa and demanding a do over. >> oh that voter fraud. you know, these politicians are brutal. they are brutal. they are brutal. they are a bunch of dishonest cookies. i want to tell you. >> i wake up every day and laugh at the latest thing donald has tweeted. because he's losing it. >> cnn's dana bash live in mchsz new ha

they expected a different kind of senator when he got to washington. and when he came in as a key member of the gang of eight, reforming the immigration program in the united states, a lot of those people who supported him when he ran for the senate and made him a star felt betrayed. >> so where do you think he'll land on immigration when all is said and done? >> it's clear he wants to do something about immigration. it's a personal issue for him because he is not only from florida but he is from a family of imgramigrantimmigrants. i would expect him to talk a lot about securing border but also talk about improving the system for entry and exit with visas so that it's a more orderly system. the real pressure on him will be whether he will take a hard stand on a path to citizenship for the 11 million or 12 million people in the country undocumented. that is the tough question for him to answer, and it's the one that he eventually will be forced to answer. >> i'm sure you're right about that. manual, thank you so much for joining me this morning. >> stil

and it's not coming right down from washington. i see people lessening up on social issues and other issues as well as immigration. i think it will be interesting to see how young republicans kind of work with this and become the new party. >> the new party. let's pull out how the iowa republican party is trying to cater to you guys. take a look at this. this comes from the website. sort of the front page there. focusing on young voters, young republicans. what do you say to those who argue that focusing on young voters is a wasted effort? they say, look, you guys don't get out to caucus as much. right now you're in college in session. so you're going to caucus in more contained areas rather than all over the state where your homes are. what do you say to them? >> i don't really believe that at all. i think young voters are incredibly important, especially with student loan issues, student debt. there's a ton of issues that pertain to students. the security of the nation and our economy. i think there are going to be a ton at stude

dana bash has the story from washington. >> reporter: good morning carol and george w. bush spoke his strict presidents shouldn't play politics rule to help. but today jeb bush is back out on the trail in south carolina solo hoping the energy from last night's rally carries over. george w. bush drew a large crowd and a deep distinction between his brother and donald trump. >> strength is not empty rhetoric. it is not bluster. it is not theatrics. real strength, strength of purpose comes from integrity and character. and in my experience, the strongest person usually isn't the loudest one in the room. >> the 43rd president never uttered trump's name but he didn't have. >> we do not need someone in the oval office who mirrors and inflames our anger and our frustration. >> he spoke only a few hours after trump doubled down on criticizing him for 9/11. >> i've heard years he kept the country safe after -- what does that mean after? what about during t eleven? i was there. >> recounted what it was like for him that morning and then segued to jeb. >> he's got the backbone to

the whole washington establishment can't just say part the waters, marco's coming. the debate on saturday proved why that is important that all of us get challenged. >> i'm saying did i hear that five times now? and it was obviously a sound byte that he likes. you can use a sound byte once but not five times. >> i think the race changed because you know there was a march among some to anoint senator rubio. i think after last night that is over. the fact is that senator is unprepared to be president of the united states. >> chris christie, also yesterday told reporters that he wanted to quote the great political philosopher saying everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face. the big issue, marco rubio came in with momentum. his town halls were packed while people were willing to acknowledge. the support doesn't look like it is. as we move in, the polling in the state, up to 30% of likely republican voters remain undecided and that doesn't bring into play the independents who choose to vote when they go to the polls. there is a lot of ground that can be ma

essentially, if anybody in washington, any top official in washington, if you look at their private e-mail, you're going to find sensitive and classified information. there were two e-mails that have now been flagged as being classified for colin powell. they were more than a dozen years ago. in rice, ten e-mails sent to her aids. she has issued a statement from her office at stanford and she points out that she never used e-mail at all while she was secretary of state, and that these ten e-mails, she says, did not contain any intelligence information. it's important to point out that in the case of hillary clinton as opposed to the other two, she set up her own private server to handle all her government work while she was secretary of state. and there's still an fbi investigation that is now hanging over her campaign. >> all right. evan perez reporting live for us this morning. thank you. some other top stories this morning. >>> a six-day three-state crime spree over as one suspect is killed and another in custody after a big gunfight. the suspects, a couple from missouri had been nickna

he spent a lot of time in washington. he's an establishment guy. but john kasich doesn't have the organization moving forward. he's limping out of here on fumes. he'll get a little bit of money, maybe, but you can't take on the juggernaut which is jeb bush. >> he doesn't have to win south carolina or even have a good showing because he may not do -- he's got to get to super tuesday, right? he's got to wait for the midwestern states which he'll probably do well in. >> john kasich gets to say to people, even those mad at him for spending medicaid, for sometimes a scolding the rest of the republican party for not being as compassionate as he is, head and heart is his big thing. he gets to say, look, you don't win ohio, you don't win the presidency, republican party. an ironic thing has happened. the establishment is in a car pile-up now and conservatives are trying to show they are not the wing of the party anymore. they are the base of the party. trump, cruz, outsiders placing -- cruz wins iowa, comes in second in new hampshire. it's an establishment

started out in washington d.c. today meeting with some civil rights leaders including al sharpton and the head of the national urban league. sanders is headed onto las vegas later today. he's expected too much town hall there as well as a rally. and he will be facing off in that town hall with hillary clinton. back to you, carol. >> reporting live for us this morning, thank you joe. >>> good morning. i'm carol costello. thank you so much for joining me. we're just two days away from the republican primary in south carolina. and the candidates are scrambling to lock down votes. in the first round of town halls, the candidates sold themselves, jabbed each other and talked about a strong military in south carolina. a state steeped in military tradition. the elephant in the room? whether opening combat roles to women will weaken the u.s. military. here's senator rubio's take. >> i don't believe the military is a place where we should lower standards to meet another goal. i believe that -- i'm open to people in both gen

let's talk about that with a trump supporter and also with commentator for the washington examiner. thanks for being here, both of you. jason, why has mitt romney injected himself into this campaign? >> well, why not? he's concerned about his party, and the way that it's going. clearly not the direction that mitt romney wants this party to be going in. everything else has been tried against donald trump so far. why not come out and say that he should release his tax returns. maybe there is a bomb shell in there. he had the event in iowa. he skipped the debate and had an event in iowa. there's no evidence that he donated that money. why not try to get involved? >> we did talk to one very small veteran's group that did accept a donation from donald trump on that day. but they're smaller veterans groups across the country, not the big larger ones. i wanted to throw that out in fairness. why not just release -- why doesn't donald trump just release his tax returns and be done with it? if he has nothing to hide, what's the big deal? >> because donald trump is bucking the political rules.

this is significant because anything this goes through washington has to go through congress. and if democrats are able to take back senate and republican is elected then that republican is going to control the congress. rand spaul one of the key building blocks for republicans to maintain control of the senate. so yes the likes of mitch mcconnell who is the senate republican leader i'm sure is breathing a sigh of relief that rand paul has decided to run again in kentucky. >> when rand paul entered the race a lot of people were excited. he brought this libertarian message. he thought twauld translate to his campaign but it never did. >> right carol. and i think part is the donald trump effect. it's been very hard for anyone to get attention. and when you look at these libertarian folks, especially in a place like new hampshire, these are the kinds of people who could also be attracted to donald trump's message. but i think the prodder thing here is the only thing harder than running one campaign is running two at the same time. and that is essentially what rand paul was trying

and does represent washington. as you said right to rise has spent $60 million, you know, an ungodly amount of one and it's gotten jeb bush into fourth place in new hampshire and sixth place in iowa. i guess this is kind of what they are down to. and maybe it will work but it just doesn't seem it has the right tone of what the republican primary electorate is looking for this year. >> and we're watching another ad by right to rise and everybody is familiar with that one with the boots and marco rubio. i want to move on to one for bernie sanders because he's fighting for the minority vote. they just released an ad featuring the daughter of eric garner who died after police put him in a choeld choke hold in new york. >> i believe sbernds a protester. >> when a police officer breaks the law. that officer must be held accountable. >> he's not scared to go up against the criminal justice system. >> you get the gist. if you watch the whole ad it actually gives you goose bumps. it is very much moving. so will an ad like t

i will le illegal immigrants in washington, d.c. four bankruptciebankruptcies, a that sues everyone whenever they say something about him or point out his behavior, he will sue them. those are not attributes that ronald reagan ever had, and what they hear donald trump stands for in his own words and seeing it there, i don't know what took them so long. it should have been done six months ago. >> so jeffrey, how do you respond to that? because what tara said is true. there is a froaud case. he does have bankruptcies in his past. he did hire people from outside the country. >> over americans. >> look, they're part of the price of doing business. now has he made mistakes in his business career, sure. but how many businesses has rubio owned. how many people has he employed. when you're looking at marco rubio, he has never hired anybody for a job for an official public sector, the public trough if you will in his life. this is what he does. >> okay, so donald trump is a businessman, right? so how is he going to stop other businessmen fro

he went to the march on washington. i remember watching that on television when i was in i believe the fifth grade. that's how long bernie's commitment to civil rights has been and to social justice. >> so you were young. he was a smidge older. point being, this has been a thread through his lose. for you, mark lamont hill, especially when you look at the numbers aamerican african-american voters in south carolina, why do you think he's not polling higher? >> i think there are a few reasons. the clintons have a very strong connection to african-american communities. despite the fact that bill clinton undermined black prosperity during the '90s. many black people still consider him the original first black president. because of that, they feel connected to the clintons as a proxy. one where we can be somewhat critical of bernie sanders. early on, bernie sanders responded to calls from black lives matter movement by saying, hey, i marched with king. or hey, my economic justice program will lead to racial justice. in a sen

the washington post said he was moral poison. it's over the top commentary about him and i think it's kind of antithetical to what their purpose is. this feeds into his narrative that everybody is against him and he can play with that in these kind of strong stringent statements against him being made by editorial boards. >> maybe you're on to something there, bill. because trump supporters and i'll pose this question to you, john. they hate the media. you only have to look at what happened to katy tur from net net news. quote trump trashes press, crowd jeers, guy by press pen looks at us and screams you're a -- it rhymes with witch. other gentleman gives camera the double bird. so, are they making trump ever more popular? >> you may be confusing correlation with causation. i think that donald trump recognizes that there is relatively low popularity for the media. so, if you're bashing the media, you're not making a lot of in y inomies, right? it's an easy target. i see a lot of people looking at the things that he says and findi

his sudden death has ignited a political battle in washington that is spilling over to the campaign trail. joe johns live at the supreme court with more for you this morning. >> reporter: good morning, carol. justice scalia had such an enormous outsized voice on all issues that mattered most to conservatives in the legal world and now his death coming at a time in the midst of a huge election battle in the united states has got people in this building and across the country wondering what is going to happen next. the body of justice antonin scalia returning home to virginia this morning. the 79 year old died here in his sleep at a texas resort over the weekend. funeral plans for the supreme court's conservative voice are underway and so is the epic political battle for his replacement. >> president obama in my view should make that nomination. i hope he does it as soon as possible. >> there is no way the senate should confirm anyone that barack obama tries to appoint in his last year in office to a lifetime appointment. >> reporter: the republicans fear another liberal nominee would tip t

it's not going to do anything to solve the problems we have in washington, d.c., fixing broken systems. jeb bush plans to do all that. i think there's a real contrast you're going to see between jeb bush in south carolina and trump and the other candidates. the man who's ready to be commander in chief. i mean, you know, trump seems to have become the republican michael moore and i'm not sure that's going to play well in being is is being when we have a significant veterans population. people are really looking closely to see who can sit behind the desk in the oval office and fix the problems that face us. and the reason jeb bush is such a credible candidate is because he has done it in florida. that's why his record's important. that's why experience is important. you can make a lot of promises but you've got to be able to achieve things. and he's got not only the panels to fix these problems and really break apart these industrial age -- >> back on president obabush, w we see him tonight, does he directly address these attacks being thrown out over and over from mr. trump? >> well, if

a washington post op ed echoed that team. looping sanders in with the republican candidate donald trump calling both men dangerously wrong in their diagnoses and predictions. sanders has not leveled with americans about the true cost of single payer healthcare. joined by gary jaffe, the author of why bernie sanders matters. welcome sir. >> happy to be with you. >> first off are you surprised that sanders is resonating? >> actually -- actually i am. because i think that everybody expected him to be a flash in the pan. but then having written a book about him, that is the way politicians saw him way back in 1980 when he ran for mayor of burlington. people thought well he's going to go away. he didn't. >> he didn't and he's still here. is he a pure idea log? >> well he certainly has a certain set of beliefs that he's not going to move from. and that is part of his secret sauce. let's face it. we haven't seen somebody like this in american politics for a long time. he believes in what he says. he's been saying it for 40 years. an

we are having a discussion between moscow and washington about how peace can be inside syria. in that discussion you don't have main actors on the ground or their often distant political representatives who talk about peace on their behalf. that is a key problem and gives you a shock as to what kind of cold war discussion this has become. many think they might have traction because the americans influence many rebels and moscow is the key backers of damascus, syrian regime. fighters are involved in this behind the weekend's attack. al qaeda branch in syria not meant to be a part of cessation of hostilities at all. they may disrupt slow down in violence and the death toll higher than it has ever been inside syria, a time when we are according to the state department maybe edging towards peace. >> nick paton walsh reporting live this morning. >>> still to come, think south carolina's battle over the confederate flag ended when it was removed from the state house? think again. how the issue has found its way into the 2016 presidential cam pain. absolutely ageless® night cream av

that's what we'll see in washington. get everyone together and do things differently. and obamacare's gone with mr. trump. >> i get it, a businessman, not a politician. what we've heard time and time again from team trump. we'll see if it turns into votes at the caucuses tonight in iowa. jeff dewitt, thank you. we're waiting to see donald trump speak to his final pitch to caucusgoers. sarah palin teeing up mr. trump. what are the top three things we should all be watching for this evening? you know what, i have found the best man to answer that. cnn's political director david chaleon is joining meg with that. as we're watching and waiting for trump, let's begin with him, david what are you looking for him tonight? >> this is a question you raised just a couple moments ago. i think it is the question in the last eight months since he got into this race. can he translate huge crowds, leads in the polls, to voters showing up to commit to him when he's not there to be the draw? that to me is a critical question we are going to get answered tonight. i think the answer to it

cnn senior washington correspondent jeff zeleny is with us. traveling with the bernie sanders campaign in nevada. let's just get reaction first from the sanders camp. this is key. and sanders really needs the minority vote. >> there's no doubt about it, poppy. the sanders campaign would have been happy to have this endorsement. but they were not expecting it. jim clyburn is an esteemed member of congress which also puts him in the establishment cam and bernie sanders is running against the establishment so, you know, the advisers on the sanders campaign say look, they certainly respect the congressman, but they believe endorsements aren't what's driving this election. and they may be right, i mean, i remember so well in 2008 where james clyburn declined to get into this race at all. it created such internal fight in the clinton campaign. bill clinton called the morning after the south carolina primary, screaming at james clybu clyburn. he writes about it in his book that came out a couple years ago and said, you know, he accused him of tipping

i think there is a lot of hand ringing in washington. the reality is much of washington brought this on. people are very mad at the leadership. i think in both parties frankly. but trump has had the benefit of having such a crowded field, it's disburpersed a lot of the i think the angryist voices have gone towards him. as long as his field stays as large as it is, that i a benefit to trump. >> washington is a little irked some people aren't dropping to perhaps coalesce behind one. alex, to you, sir, great piece with maggie and jonathan in "the times." in your reporting, you mention senate majority leader mitch mcconnell laying out the plan that would have lawmakers break with trump in a general election? tell me about that. >> what they're envisioning now is a scenario where they're struck with trump and it becomes very clear maybe even before the convention in july that he's a nonstarter and he's going to lose badly. what that means is you have a number of vulnerable republican senators up for re-election who suddenly have to choose do

the government, if it has power, it belongs at the state level, not at washington d.c. you will have a president that believes in free enterprise, not because i inherited money or i'm wealthy but because my dad was a bartender and my mother was a maid, and the reason why they had jobs is because free enterprise works. free enterprise is the only economic model in the history of the world where you're judged on your merit and work, not on your connections, not on your last name. it is the only economic model in the history of the world where you can make poor people richer and you don't have to make rich people poorer, where you can lift everybody up and not tear anyone down. and that's why as a candidate i have offered serious ideas and serious proposals. unlike donald trump, who won't tell you where he stands on the issues, because he doesn't care where he stands on the issues. to him, we'll figure it out when we get there. we can't elect the dog that caught the car. get it? think about it. the dog is always barking at the car. what are you going to do when you catch t

one it's the anger and frustration at washington. and two the person you are seeing on tv that seems to be as mad as you are the most is donald trump. and that's the reason why he has continued the success. >> tara you want to get in there? >> i absolutely do. as a trump supporter, we have been called angry by the media. and i just did this same thing. it's not the fact that we walk around being angry people. it's not the fact that the fact we walk around being uneducated people. we are very educated and some of the smartest folks that i know didn't get a college degree. the fact of the matter is we finally have a voice. we have been a silent majority for so long in this country, donald trump is giving us a voice. we are not standing out in the street poppy, streaming at the top of our lungs that we're miss pissed off and we're not going to take it anymore. we are simply saying washington needs a choke hold on sit he have. -- on it set. et cetera a out of control. >> tara let me follow that up with this question for you. donald trump

the march on washington. the march from selma to montgomery and correct edirecte voter education project for six years. but i met hillary clinton. i met president clinton. >> he says he never saw bernie sanders. but he, you know, you heard what he just said at the end there. does she use that tonight? >> i don't know she has to use it. it's such a powerful moment for her without her touching it. sort of speaks for herself. that is, you know, john lewis is total stalwart of the civil rights movement, he's got tons of credibility on this issue obviously, and if he is saying i never saw this guy, i never met bernie sanders, which isn't to say bernie sanders did not fight for civil rights in his own way at the university of chicago or at the march on washington, but if john lewis is sort of dissing sanders and saying, hey, let's be honest here, and by the way, i really did know the clintons, that is damning in and of itself. bernie sanders, african-american supporters of his own. but that is an ad right there in

also with us, todd gillman, the washington burreau chief for th dallas morning news. this back and forth over donald trump's taxes, where the main aggressor is one willard mitt romney, the 2012 republican nominee. i suppose there are two questions. you've been on the record with us saying you think at some point donald trump will be vetted more than he has in the past and this may be one of those areas that will take place in. be that as it may, is willard mitt romney the right messenger for this attack? >> it certainly does show he is the embodiment of the establishment. for him to compae out, i think it's unprecedented to come out like this. but where's his evidence? what does he know that we don't know? interesting to hear. >> impressive for the man who was the republican nominee. i should note that donald trump announced mitt romney four years ago and in case anyone forgets, mitt romney went hat in hand to trump towers to essentially beg for that endorsement. >> we will eventually see his tax return but we will not see him in march. >> all right, amanda carpenter,

he joins me from washington. welcome. >> thank you so much. yes, it's a big surprise to me, voters, my friends down here, bernie sanders does matter. >> you followed him for a couple of years. little did you know perhaps he would have such the following leading into this presidential nomination contest. let me begin with one point you make in your book. questioning what kind of socialist he is. you liken him more to donald trump than fellow democrats. tell me why. >> he's more a populist in american history than he is a socialist. i think of teddy roosevelt. i think of la guardia. they always championed the little guy against the wealthy. it was teddy roosevelt who was the big bank buster at the turn of the century. as weird as it might seem, donald trump is also somewhat of a populist. sanders is wealthy. trump says the little guy is getting pushed around too much by, i don't know, immigrants, not getting a fair shake. it's the not getting a fair shake that brings then together. >> what about beshy sanders in the '50s and 60s. he was talking

during the constitutional convention, george washington was 55. i heard that this week and i thought, my gosh, you have wasted your life. you have wasted so much time in your -- george washington, 55, was a man that was so honorable that people would just sit no matter the disagreement between themselves, they would sit together because he was in the room. >> i should point out, full disclosure, that is your boss. >> it is indeed. >> that said, you know, how does donald trump play to that same kind of crowd? >> i think what donald hasn't really proven yet and what actually most of the polls show he will have a lot of difficulty with are real conservatives. he's built this sort of coalition that includes independents, people that are new to voting, people that even might have been democrats in the past, as well as the segment of disaffected generally speaking lower middle class white males. that's kind of the trump coalition. it's not people who are conservatives in the deep south, in places like south carolina, and so i think someone like ted cruz

brianna keilar in las vegas, also marissa rosenberg, a culture columnist for "the washington post" and a supporter of clinton. bri, let me begin with you. inch nevada, a very different electorate. we saw how the polls changed in the past few months. what's she doing on the trail to get those votes? >> this is a more diverse state, mainly due to a sizable hispanic majority which hillary clinton does pretty well with. from the get-go, coming out here last spring, for her first campaign event in nevada, she focused very much on immigration. we're seeing that today with a new ad she's out with airing here in nevada. where she's talking about the fear of deportations. here's part of it. >> my parents, they have a letter of deportation. i'm scared for them because they might be deported. >> come here. [ applause ] i'm going to do everything i can so you don't have to be scared. >> that was an event that happened here in nevada last weekend. you also see bernie sanders trying to cut into hillary clinton's support with hispanic voters. talking about how he in favor of a pathway to citizenship

we're going to take you to washington now. "the lead" with jake tapper starts right now. >> thanks, brooke. he's looking more like a politician today and less like -- well, less like donald trump.

he's represented conservative values in texas and washington, d.c. i think now especially with the passing of justice scalia, we need someone that understands our constitution, that supported our constitution, that doesn't have this record that liberals can point at and say, hey this doesn't jive with what you're saying now. we need someone who's going to stand by our principles and stand by what the republican party represents. and the good of conservativism. >> krystal heath, jeff dewit, thank you. >>> the five remaining republican candidates will meet head to head in the next gop debate this thursday in houston. wolf blitzer moderates the cnn gop presidential debate beginning at 8:30 thursday night only on cnn. >>> up next on this monday, the democrats turning their focus to south carolina. can bernie sanders slow down hillary clinton's momentum as they head into their first big test in the south? >>> plus, the uber driver accused of going on a killing spree in kalamazoo, michigan, is making his first court appearance. we're going to have a live r

let's go straight to our chief political analyst gloria borger in washington. so it is officially official, you know, from the scene of iowa, hillary clinton got it, closest of all calls there. your response in terms of how she takes it moves forward? >> she's happier to win than not win, no matter by how small a margin. however, there's a lot of concerns you have to have if you're in the clinton campaign coming out of this small margin of victory. you know, when you look at entrance polls ewere talking about into wee hours last night a few things pop out at me. one is the fact that bernie sanders continued to get those younger voters, including younger women voters. the questions of trust that seem to plague her, and most importantly, i think, this question of who is the candidate that best understands my needs, right? and bernie sanders, by 3-1 margin, beats her on that. and so, i think as you look towards new hampshire, i think she's got to warm herself up a little bit that way in order to compete with him on those issues that really go go to your kind of co

in the meantime we send it to washington. "the lead with jake tapper" starts right now. >> thanks, brooke. i'm back from new hampshire. as donald trump might say, there was so much winning going on. "the lead" starts right now. there will be blood. donald trump moves on to south carolina with ted cruz in his cross-hairs. if you thought the race was chaotic and ugly before, wait until you see the tv ads running today. >>> going national. bernie sanders getting a huge fund-raising bump after his blowout win in new hampshire. can he break through in friendly territory for hillary clinton? >>> determined to attack. the top u.s. security official warning isis could strike inside the u.s. this year. and we may not see the terrorists coming.

"washington post," i have to tell you, i have respect for jeff bezos but he bought "the washington post" to have political influence and i got to tell you, we have a different country then we used to have. he owns amazon. he wants political influence so that amazon will benefit from it. that's not right. and believe me, if i become president, oh, do they have problems. they're going to have such problems. one of the things i'm going to do, and this is only going to make it tougher for me, and i've never said this before, but one of the things i'm going to do if i win, and i hope we do and we're certainly leading. i'm going to open up our libel laws so when they write purposely negative and mohorrib and false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money. we're going to open up those libel laws. so when "the new york times" writes a hit piece which is a total disgrace or when the "washington post" which is there for other reasons writes a hit piece, we can sue them and win money instead of having no chance of winning because they're totally protected. you see, with me, they're not prot

then of course she's transitioned to her time in washington in the 1990s, where she worked to create fundamentally the children's health insurance program which was a significant bridge between medicare in 1965 and the affordable care act. the chip program has helped many african-american families. even during her time as a united states senator from here in new york, she co-sponsored legislation to deal with racial profiling in the criminal justice system, sentencing reform. she helped to deal with the despaisparity -- >> you can keep going, it's an impressive resume. the thing is, i've been at these bernie sanders rallies. these young people, they don't care. they don't care. a lot of them like bernie sanders. a number of african-americans. although when you look at the polls, she seems to really have it in south carolina. specifically, looking ahead, what does she need to do to take sanders supporters and say no, i'm the one who has your back? >> first, i think the fact that bernie sanders has run such a robust campaign is good for the party and will make hillary clinton a stronge

that got frankly misquoted by "the washington times" and circulated. it was ultimately corrected. >> then that is -- that is my fault, i apologize. i apologize. i'm glad you corrected us. i do want your take on this before i let you go in the minute i have. the latest cnn/orc poll shows bernie sanders 65% to 28%. you've got hillary clinton 65% to bernie sanders 28% in south carolina among democratic primary goers. how do you turn that around? >> you know, there have been polls that have also shown that the gap is just 20 points. people are working very hard on the ground and quite frankly those polls tend to not count a lot of working people who for instance don't have land lines at home. you get a richer set of voters. so we'll see what happens. if people are organizing and you see folks switching every day. >> you definitely do. it's going to be an exciting one to watch as every state has been. ben jealous, please join us again. i wish we had more time. >> thank you. >> thank you for coming on. that will do it for us this hour. thanks for joining me
