>> in our nation's darkest hours, fdr told us that we have nothing to fear but fear itself. jfk told us to ask not what our

country can do for us, but ask what we can do for our country. [ cheers ] america shouldn't have a president whose words would make you embarrassed if your children repeated them. >> tuesday was anything but super for marco rubio. though he won his first state, minnesota, it was an otherwise crippling night for the florida senator, who tried to convince supporters in miami that things still looked good. >> the pundits say we're underdogs, i'll concep accept t. we have all been underdogs, this is a community of underdogs, this is a state of under dogs, this is a country of underdogs, but we'll win. and when we do, and when we do, we'll do what needs to be done. >> reporter: as misguided as it may seem, rubio is counting on the march 15th contest in

florida to reverse his fortunes. john kasich is putting it all on ohio. >> i'll tell you now, we'll beat donald trump in the state of ohio >> reporter: but super tuesday was about marco rubio, now the consensus pick of the gop establishment, continuing to logs. >> in just the last week, since the thursday debate, i've been inundated with emails and calls from people all across this country who are joining ourert. >> reporter: the problem for rubio, he has not been inundated with votes, and the problem for some republicans, after super tuesday, donald trump seems more inevitable. >> if trump is there, i will not vote. >> i will not vote for trump. >> i will do a write in for marco rubio and resign from the republican party. >> people were given a choice of whether to vote for hillary clinton or donald trump, and they said none of the above. tony? >> so michael shure, i want to

ask this in a different way. mitt romney will be back in the spotlight tomorrow when he gives a speech about the state of the 2016 race. here's what i want to ask. should we care, and why? >> reporter: wow, yeah. that's a really good question. there are a lot of republicans asking the same question, and don't feel like you're alone. mitt romney is trying to insert himself as the reasonable voice of the republican party, but he's also the rejected voice. and a lot of the republicans think is that he lost a race that he should have won. he last name, accorditoring people that we have spoken to, say that he's going to be running for office. he last name say that he's going to be endorsing another candidate. i think that he's really at the university of utah going to give a state of the race talk, but he's publicized it to the point where people are wondering what's behind that. as far as i know, nothing yet. and the people in the

republican party, a lot of them would like to see him just go away, tony. >> you know that i love talking politics with you and of schuster, so what, if anything on super tuesday, any surprises at all? >> you know, i think the biggest surprise for me, tony, was the way in which marco rubio didn't come close in many of these contests. also the fact that donald trump did so well in massachusetts. people like will well, and mitt romney, and people like the current governor, charlie baker, moderate republicans, people in the main strem, calmer republicans like massachusetts politics, and trump did so well there. and the way in which ted cruz did so well in texas. he really won by a lot there. and there are people saying that ted cruz spoke to his donor base, saying that if i

didn't win texas, i would have won the race. he won by so much there, that he really sees a way forward for himself. and those are the surprises to me. i think that we all thought donald trump was going to have a very good night. >> i want to push you more, you're hearing that those establishment republicans have a plan that if trump wins the nomination, the delegates take the nomination from him at the convention, do you see that happening? >> you know, here's what could happen. if he doesn't have the numbers when he gets to the convention, if that's the situation, or if in fact, you know, he has enough numbers, but there's a group trying to stop him from being president, none of the people you're talking about, especially marco rubio and ted cruz, those would not be the people that would get the nomination, donald trump will still have something to say

about that. we're going to reject trump, and it's going to happen. donald trump will have something to say, he will never secede the nomination to marco rubio or ted cruz, and you're going to look to somebody like paul ryan to come in and save the day for the republicans, and maybe that's what mitt romney is trying to do, get himself in that conversation. >> michael shure for us in miami. and as for the democrats, many say that super tuesday all but clenched the nomination for hillary clinton, but bernie sanders is not giving up without more of a fight. john, bernie sanders says that he's going on, and does he have a strategy? >> absolutely. >> yes, he has a strategy, and he had a great night last

night, they love them and he loves them. and great success here in vermont. but as we know, that wasn't really news, and i think that the campaign woke up this morning and said oh, my goodness, what on earth is happening? she won sensates, and we won four, and we expected to have five, and we didn't have as good of a night as we thought they would, so they had a meeting to explain their strategy. he admit this morning, yes, we're behind, and yes, she has an advantage, but they have a strategy going forward that can provide them with enough delegates by june, and a state to state strategy. they say that they will be winning some states and have others in mind that they can do well in. he flew from burlington, vermont, and at lunchtime, he

implored voters to turnout for sanders. >> next sunday i believe at 1:00, the caucuses will be held throughout maine. we can win here if there's a large voter turnout. please vote. thank you all very much. >> they won in florida, with retired people, and said that they would tone their policy to bernie's policies regarding older people. and in the midwest, where he thinks that he can do particularly well and he must do well, they're going to tool for campaign to deal with the issues of trade. and attack mrs. clinton on what she has done in the past. and i would point to michigan, tony, the next big milestone for the sander's campaign in the next few days.

the campaign wants to do well there, particularly among african-american voters, and you know how important that is, and i would go so far as to say that if they don't do well in michigan, the campaign will be in serious trouble in terms of winning. not in terms of the national debate, pushing clinton to the left. >> so john, hillary clinton, as we all know at this point, had a pretty impressive night last night. and is her messaging more now directed more to donald trump and less to bernie sanders? >> yes, very much so. she kind of stopped mentioning bernie sanders to last week, and when she had that lopsided win in south carolina on saturday, she said at that point, if you remember, tomorrow, meaning sunday, this campaign goes national, and pretty much that's what has been happening ever since winning in south carolina. she's dealing with national

issues, and she's talking about defeating republicans. she doesn't mention trump very often by name, but clearly that's not the point. her home state of new york, and a few minutes ago, she wound up her speaking and listen to her now as she talks about a kind of, gentler america,alla george wgeorgew. bush, 41. >> we're going to wage a campaign that is about the future, and about bringing us all together. you know, i've said a few times in the last week, it may seemed on to hear this, but i want you to hear it. i honestly believe we need more love and kindness in our country right now. >> and her campaign manager this evening said a win against bernie sanders is prohibitive,

and likely to get larger. >> john terrett in burlington, vermont. the supreme court heard oral arguments today in the firsin the anabortion case, and, what happened in the courtroom? >> reporter: tony, for 90 minutes today, the justices grilled attorneys about a controversial texas law. and adjourning by the questions they asked, they appeared sharply divided. [ chanting ] >> reporter: outside the supreme court, the debate over one of the biggest abortion cakes in years grew loud. >> texas cares about our women. that is what this is all about. >> this isn't about increasing women's health and safety. it's about putting them in a precarious situation, where they don't have access to care.

>> reporter: inside, the debate grew spirted. conservative justices asked whether a 2013 texas law is devastating to women's healthcare. liberal justices asked whether the law is even needed. the law requires doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges at local hospitals, and it requires clinics to meet costly standards, similar to emergency rooms. the goal is to protect women's health. and critics say that it has caused half of the clinics to close, and have limb access to the ones that remain. >> they have to get childcare more than once, and get time off of work, and there's travel for people that can be complicated. >> samuel alito asked to explain all of closures. for some of them, there was information for reasons that had nothing to do with this

law. and liberal justice, elena kagan asked why limiting abortion rather than riskier procedures. there are many others that are higher risk. colonoscopies, and lipo surfaces and you could go on and on, and you say that's okay, we get to set higher standards for abortion. and i want to know why that is. responded, legislatures react to concern. the pivotal is bound to be justice kennedy, but with the court one member short, after justice scalia's steak last month, it could be split 4-4. and the texas law would be upheld. if the law stays in effect, the effect could be felt across texas. the state would be left with only ten abortion clinics, and others in the u.s. could be upheld as well. >> justice kennedy seems more

to me that more than ever, all eyes are on justice kennedy, and any idea how he might come down on is this? >> tony, he gave very little indication of how he might vote. and everybody was listening to the questions that he was asking. to have the supreme court return the case to a lower court so more evidence could be gathered as to how this law in texas is going to effect women. >> oh, that's a big tipoff there. and roxana, appreciate it. the u.s. is applauding the united nations decision to hit north korea with sanctions. they were in response to the recent rocket and nuclear tests. secretary of state john kerry said that the regime will be held accountable to it's increasingly provocative behavior, and the threat not only on the peninsula, but also the world. james bays has more from the

u.n.. >> reporter: almost two months after north korea carried out it's latest nuclear test, the u.n. security council finally gave its response. >response. a unanimous vote in favor of the toughest sanctions resolution yet. >> as the resolution we adopted today underscores that virtually all of the nk's resources are channeled into its relentless pursuit weapons of mass destruction. the north korea government would rather grow it's nuclear weapons program than grow it's own children. >> reporter: the fact north korea defied the international community with the launch of a satellite during the negotiations may have helped to persuade the chinese to agree to these new extensive measures. ththe text of the resolution, almost 20 minutes long, was discussed in meetings did not the u.s. and china.

some parts directed at the north korean leadership. among the luxury goods and recreational vehicles, and jet skis and snowmobiles. but despite the agreement on the resolution, china is still opposed to the u.s. plans to deploy a defense missile system in south korea. >> all parties should avoid actions that will further have action on the ground. the korean peninsula. because such an action harms the security interests of china and the other countries of the region. and goods against the goal of maintaining peace, security on the peninsula. >> there are now two important questions. the providings of this restlution go further than before, but will it be properly implemented? and how will the north koreans react? in the past when they have been

punished bit u.n. security council, it has only provoked them to take further action. >> up next on the program. a shootout in jordan, the isle attack against civilians and military target. and the jungle where the refugees of call a ar calais ard now.

agency said that the cell linked to isil. attacks on civilian and military targets, destabilizing national security. it's impossible to confirm, but the tarts were said to have been restaurants and schools. >> they could work with more freedom there. it's not a place where authorities would expect to find isil followers. >> reporter: the business is 20 kilometers from the syrian border and has 100,000 syrian refugees, but those killed in the air raid are believed to have been from jordan. it's long before the syrian

conflict. the leader of al qaeda in iraq was from jordan. the group bombed hotels in jordan in 2025. they have closed all by two border crossings with syria. there are almost 20,000 refugees am abused at the eastern border with syria. the government said that it needs to make sure that there are not isil fighters among them. jordan needs to be stable. but it's a small country with volatile neighbors and pockets. hundreds have gone to syria to fight with the armed group and it's affiliates. the risk of that spreading here is one of jordan's biggest fears. aljazeera, am an. >> refugees at the calais migrant camp in france have waged an unusual protest. they stitched their mouths shut. known as the jungle, they

carried signs asking the united nations to intervene. and meanwhile, french officials broke down structures for the third day. >> the weather here at the call a jungle camp has improved somewhat, but the shacks at the edge of the camp have not improved. the demolition workers have cleared at least 30 meters on wednesday morning, there's some resistance on the rooftop here, and you can see six demonstrators who are delaying the construction, but many people are simply giving up and accepting the french government's offer of acceptance of asylum here in france, and that's it. there are a number of people for whom the goal of getting to britain remains very strong, and they're moving out from the jungle and spreading along the coast to other places, such as dunkirk. it's about 40 kilometers away

from the calais jungle, a short hop when you consider the trek that many have made in the last months, but the conditions, there are only structures out here, only tents, and the time is limited even in this place. a decision has been made to try to evacuate this camp too. a census has been made of 12, 1500 people at this camp. and a new camp is being made, and you can see some of their volunteers here and there trying to count the people. but the fact is that this camp is going to be closed. and that puts yet more pressure on the refugees here to decide what their future is. many are confused and many are bewildered. many don't know if they should god to uk or accept the offer of asylum here in france. >> paul brenner reportin reporm calais for us. next on the program, the rise of donald trump, the republicans split over the

nomination and what to do about him. going home to porter ranch after a massive gas leak, but will they stay in the neighborhood?

>> super tuesday did not turn out exactly how the republican establishment had hoped, with donald trump having a big lead in the delegate county, there are fears among the gop leaders that the businessman may be unstoppable and went there's a

bitter battle over how to deal with him. >> this has been an amazing evening. >> in the wake of donald trump's super tuesday, the republican establishment seems more divided than ever. many gop insideerbs view trump as unacceptable. and the question between gop lawmakers is if trump can be contained by defeating him or by influencing him. >> america shouldn't have a president whose words would make you embarrassed if your children repeated them. >> texas senator, ted cruz, is asking everybody to join the effort to defeat trump. >> so long as the field remains divided, donald trump's path to the nomination remains more likely, and that would be a disaster for republicans. >> but with johnion and marco rubio pledging to stay in through their home state

primaries, a head-to-head matchup with trump is at least two weeks away. >> and two weeks from tonight, right here in florida, we're going to send a message loud and clear. >> by then, trump's delegate map might be impossible to stop. so a growing number of party members, like utah's orrin hatch, are trying to contain trump and work with him, after his response from former kkk leader, david duke, mcconnell made distance. >> republicans condemn david duke and the kkk and his racism. it's nothing, and it's not the view of the republicans that have been elected to the united states senate. >> republican house speaker, paul ryan, took a similar approach, avoiding personal

antagonism aimed at trump. and the gop frontrunner approves. >> i'm going to get along great with congress, paul ryan, i don't know him. and if i don't, he's going to have to pay a big price, okay? >> remember, in november, it's the party that could pay. many republicans believe that with trump as the nominee, the party could lose control of the house and the senate. and even if trump wins the white house, he's running away on issues with economy and social programs. >> it's a rock and a hard place, it's a very tough situation. >> in all the, it leaves the gop nervous and unsure as trump moves closer to the nomination. >> so with super tuesday in the rear-view mirror, the presidential candidates are now looking ahead to other primary states, including ohio.

>> mr. donald j trump. >> every serious candidate has been here and will come again and again. >> ohio is truly a microcosm of the country. and you have every part of the country represented here in ohio. >> the mix of rural and urban, poor and black and white, is known for picking presidents. >> now it one of probably a dozen battle ground states from the presidency. only a dozen, and out of 50 states, there are only about 12 where there's a real contest going on. that has been in ohio for years and years and years. demographically, it mirrors the country. >> in the general, the mirror is an accurate reflection of what happens in the nation when all of votes are cast. ohio is the gateway to the white house. since 1964, every single president, johnson, reagan,

clinton, elder and younger bush, and obama have all had to weigh in here first, on average, it's 1.3 percentage points. this year marks a turning point in ohio and the nation. for the first time, millennials, those born after 1980, will match. >> we have grown up in a time where there's a lot of economic hardship. >> that goes for democrats. >> i can afford for a republican president to be in office. i am white, straight and middle class, but for a lot of people in marginalized communities, they can not afford four years of a republican. >> the reason that i believe that it's bernie sanders, because of the 40 years of consistent policies. >> millennials like me are also very very invested in making sure that we protect gay rights, protect the ability to

marry someone you love. >> and it goes for young republicans. >> i'm for donald trump because i want to make america great again, and build that wall. >> donald trump is the man, and he's going to make america great again. >> he tells it how it is. >> thank you. >> all of candidates will campaign here aggressively, because they know that if their dream of the white house is to become a reality, they must win here. >> the pentagon is trying to boost its cyber security with vetted hackers trying to hack into the system. and they hope that they can hack before malicious hackers can find it. it is the first time that a program is founded by the federal government. in pennsylvania, a catholic priest was sentenced to 60 years for sexual abuse. he financed the trips with

money raised by a self run charity. and now his former did i cease is accused of covering up the abuse. >> first it was bishop james hogan and then bishop addemmic. the two allegedly covered up the abuse of hundreds of children at the hands of dozens of priests. those were the findings of the grand jury, convened by the state's attorney general. >> this abuse lasted for four decades. and not only was it covered up, not only were priests moved around, but bishops hogan and addemmic placed children as they desired to avoid public scandal over the wellbeing of innocent children. >> reporter: the report details the graphic testimony of former victims and priests,

as well as records seized from the diocese. hogan is no longer alive, and addemmic denies all of the charges. but just this past weekend, powell of australia became the highest ranking vatican official to testify in his country's problems with sexual abuse in the church. >> it's indefensible. the church is working to remedy those, but the churches, in many places, certainly in australia, has mapped things out. >> we need to focus o. >> to settle claims.

>> sometimes it can make a difference. and to do that, it brings you closer, i think to why you wanted to do it in the first place. and the more people come out, the greater chance we have of protecting more children, and i think that people are making that connection now. >> in the pennsylvania case, no criminal charges will be filed. the statute of limitations have expired and some of the priests have died. and some of the victims are too traumatized to testify. a handful of priests have been suspended but the purge of the predators is taking too long. >> residents living near a now-capped natural gas well in los angeles are now being allowed to go back home. they were forced out for months after the well spewed methane

into the air, but some say that it's still not safe to return. >> months after being forced away, joni spears has returned to organize what's left in her home. >> how do you explain this to your kids? they're going through a lot. they know that we had to make the right decision for them. and i think they have been preparing themselves to leave, but i think not knowing where we're going, and what we're doing, it's frightening. >> spears is not convinced it's safe to live here anymore. the gas company has sealed the well. and residents started returning last week, but her health has improved while away, and now she feels ill again. >> since i've you come back in the last days and this week, i think that i'm getting really sick again. >> it's not just joni spears.

others have reported health issues since returning to the area, and county officials would like more time for air testing, including inside of homes. >> what's left over in the air and the atmosphere and in people's homes, and what has been trapped in the sediment rock for almost four months? >> the most damaging gas leak in u.s. history took place at one of the largest gas storage facilities in the country. most people had no idea there were more than 100 wells just over the hills from their homes. protests and demand for accountability and lawsuits. >> you know, there are many lawsuits, i've heard up to 75. we have our own louse that we have filed on behalf of the people of the state of california, working closely with the state attorney's office. >> some residents will move past this and resume life in porter ranch, but spears said that she plans to sell this

house, despite her love for her neighborhood. >> it is, in my opinion, one of the most breathtaking places in l.a. county. when i saw this view, when we were ready to purchase this house, i couldn't believe that i was going to get to look at this every day, and it makes me sad that this could happen in our country. >> consolation for people who have to move, housing prices appearing to holding steady and construction continues on million dollars homes right below the gas storage site. others may think twice. melissa chen, aljazeera, porter ranch, california. >> and coming up, young voters in iran, their hopes and dreams for reform after last week's election. and the find of a lifetime. a little boy who uncovered a 4,000-year-old relic.

>> possible debris from malaysian airlines 370 might have been found off of mozambik. it was on the indian ocean where the last piece was found. and there's a good chance that it came from a boing 777. it was lost at sea. and in thailand, bosses agreed to pay for abuses.

they sell to seafood markets around the world. >> reporter: there's a sense of change among some workers in thailand's food processing industry. emboldened by the decision by their employer, gold an price, to pay to some of its workers, they came to the governor to ask why they were not includedded. the governor would not speak to us on camera. he ensured that the workers would be paid after being excluded because they're not full-time employees of the tuna processing factory. but they were assured money for overtime. >> we are so upset. they paid for the others, but why not us? we worked there too. >> aljazeera highlighted problems at goldman price last year, after workers walked off the job in protest. company management wouldn't comment about the $1.3 million pay out, but it comes at a

sensitive time for thailand, which is one of the world's largest seafood exporters. in july, the united states will release it's latest trafficking report, which at the moment, thailand is ranked among the worst offenders, and the european union is still deciding whether to ban all seafood imports because of abuses. millions of migrant workers are employed at thailand's food processing center. rights workers are talking about the compensation from goldman price, but they know there's a long way to go. we feel very happy. this is a first for migrant workers in thailand, they don't pay proper wages to the workers >> reporter: it's also an example that workers are more aware of their rights in an industry where they often have them taken away. >> the face of iran could be

changing after mod rats close to president rouhani made major gains in the parliament elections. speaking about the hopes for the future, and the challenges they face. jonah hall reports. >> reporter: teheran's frand bazaar. one of the great experiences in a country with change. it's business as usual. like many iranians, they prefer not to give their sure names, they're shopping for traditional wedding jewelry. in a pop election where one out of four young people are out of work, getting married is a luxury many can't afford. >> people would be more inclined to get married and have families and it's a direct

effect on their decisions. so many people are not getting married because it's just too expensive. >> when you go into the factions, but people are under less pressure. >> the lifting of international sanctions following a nuclear deal with world powers paved the way for big advances with reformists in last week's porl mentally election, and those who voted for it. >> the world bazaar is made up of commerce here for centuries, dating back, they say to when teheran was just a village. it's not a village anymore. and for its young, hanging out in a fledgling catholic culture, it's a chance to imagine a different way of life. >> i feel there's an under ground life in this city. underground fun, socializing, theater, all of this despite

the existing difficulties. >> sheva is unemployed, a sociology graduate who is turning to selling pistachio nuts to meet expenses. >> our generation faces a lot of economic problems and hardships, but we want more than a better economy. personally, i want to have more freedom. freedom all kinds, freedom of media, political association, and freedom from being watched and supervised in everything that we do. >> reporter: this generation is finding it's own way in a world of facebook and twitter and in a world where bloggers are frequently arrested. the change that they crave may be upon them. aljazeera, ta ron. >teheran.>> and how about thisa 17-year-old boy found a clay piece in a river that may be los to 4,000 years old.

>> reporter: seven-year-old orri is going to be talking about his discovery for a lifetime. he and his mother, maria, are proud to show the location where ori found a nearly 4,000-year-old relic. >> i went up to the top of this hill here, and suddenly i bumped into a stern, and i saw the head of a small statue. i began to rub it, and it was the head of a human being. >> orri was on a field trip, not far from the jordan river. archaeologists say this is where king david and king solomon lived in the 10th to 9th centuries. >> the clay statue belongs to the canaanite period. >> it has a narrow waist and a fancy hairdo. some archaeologists believe

that it resembles women from the era when the egyptian pharaohs ruled the land and some don't. >> it's a goddess. >> fertility goddess or common woman. the relic is a rare find. so rare that orri has received a certificate of appreciation from archaeologists. a seven--year-old to a nearly 4,000-year-old artifact. >> up next, down-to-earth. astronauts come home after a record-breaking stay on the international space station.

>> astronaut, scott kelly and cosmonaut are back on earth after spending a record 343 days in space. it was met to test the effects of space travel on the human body. aljazeera reports on the challenges they faced. >> scott kelly, mick i'll bid farewell to their colleagues, and close the hatch on the international space station. their 343 days in orbit are seen as a vital stepping stone to the future missions what you

know about any kind of interplanetary situation, how long human bodies stand up to long-term exposure to gravity that is weightlessness. astronauts undergo things like bone loss and muscle mass loss overtime. to the tune of 1 and a half percent of their bone mass each month. >> they safely landed in the snowy wilderness of kazakhstan. they were supposed to exit the capsule themselves after landing on mars, but the debilitating effects so long in space were clear, and the men were too weak to do this. scott's body will be compared to his earth bound twin, mark, to analyze any changes. now the u.s. astronaut with the most consecutive days in space, and any serious enthusiast will

tell that you absolute record belongs to a russian. we should say that it's not the first such lengthy flight. in 1994, 1995, our compatriot set the salute record of 437 days. that's almost enough time to fly to mars and back. he carried out many experiments, and it's work was very important. >> nothing replicates the experience of reentry. it's one of those things that you have to do yourself. the simulator shows how cramped it is inside of this tiny capsule. the only thing that's keeping the men alive, and it shows how the vacuum extreme temperatures of space are just centimeters from their heads. the missions like the one just returned to earth shows how much excitement missions to space have, and maybe for these children, a visit to mars.
