tv New Day Sunday CNN December 15, 2013 3:00am-4:31am PST
3:00 am
good morning, everyone. great to have you along with us on this sunday morning. i'm pamela brown. >> it's a pleasure to be with you. i'm victor blackwell. this is "new day sunday." first this morning, we're going to take you to south africa's farewell to the man that many called the greatest son, nelson mandela. south africa's first black president and icon of democracy has been laid to rest in the ancestral village of qunu, that's where he grew up. about 130 of nelson mandela's family and friends have been walking to the grave site. according to the tradition, the burial takes place at midday,
3:01 am
where the sun is at its brightest. at his family's request, the burial was private, and earlier, thousands gathered in a huge tent set up for a state funeral. in attendance, of course, mr. mandela's family, african heads of state, several of them spoke during the program. britain's prince charles, jesse jackson, also oprah winfrey. on the stage, there were 95 candles that glowed, one for every year of mr. mandela's life. >> mr. mandela's casket was draped with the south african flag. a military escort carried it to the burial site and soldiers li lined the way as the mourners walked the there. >> christiane amanpour joins us now from the bureau in london and former managing editor of "time" magazine and author of "mandela's way," rick stengal, joins us from new york. christiane, i want to start with you. today, one of the speakers said,
3:02 am
it is impossible to sum up nelson mandela's life and achievements, those things that we can see on paper and those things that people just feel. >> indeed. and perhaps today the state funeral, the internment, and all this week, sum it up, how it is something that has goarnered th attention of the whole world, not just the foreign dignitaries who have come to pay their respects, but the people of south africa, who lined up for days, three days, to come and view his body lying in stated and then to see all through these days the symbols that are so important, so much ceremonial military honor given to mr. mandela, as you can imagine, as a former commander in chief, as the founding father of this nation. but when you watch elderly black and white military together and you remember that even not a generation ago, they were fighting each other, and now they're standing united to pay their final respects and give
3:03 am
the full state honors to their first black president, it is truly an amazing scene to watch that armored vehicle, which for so many has been a symbol of oppression in the township, soweto and elsewhere, to watch people coming up to the funeral in a ceremonial role, but with all their guns and their rifles, and you remember, these had been used in the struggle against apartheid, to see the south african air force do an honor flyby and dip its wings, to watch the helicopters fly with the south african flag, it was all very, very moving. and i spoke just after his death to the deputy anc leader, but then during the apartheid struggle was the union leader and was a chief negotiator during the antiapartheid period. he told me what nelson mandela is, is the example for this country's future. >> the legacy that he leaves us
3:04 am
overall is transformation. and this is the moment when, as we put him to rest, all of us as south africans will be saying, let us reconcile, let us transform our country to properly turn it into the south africa of nelson mandela's dreams. that is the route that we are now going to walk. >> and very, very, very big shoes, indeed, as you can imagine. but even at the state funeral today, president zuma made a lot of outreach to this very point, because, you know, people were booing him, in fact, at the state commemoration in johannesburg at the soccer stadium, and i think he knows that for the future of this country, there needs to be some more reconciliation in the mandela spirit. he spoke to it quite strongly during his speech at the state funeral today. >> rick, you worked with
3:05 am
president mandela on his autobiography, "a long walk to freedom." and in the book, you write and he writes that when mandela was a child in this community of qunu, that africans weren't afforded the privilege of having the title of land and owning that land. they had to pay rent to the government, annually. talk about what it meant to go back and his decision to be buried in qunu, and now to runner as the first black president, and with a state funeral and all the pomp and circumstance there in qunu? >> it is very significant and lovely. i mean, he loved those hills around where he was born. he never talked about religion much or western religion at all, and he talked about the ancestors. he talked about his people. he was, when his father died, when he was 8 or 9 years old, and his father had been a counselor to the king of the tembu, he was brought to what
3:06 am
was known as the great place, and he became a charge, became another son, as it were, of the king, where he was imbued with all of the transitions of the tembu tribe and the larger clan and he loved the those things. he loved their style of leadership, he loved listening to the stories of the battles against the british, against the zulu, and he was imbued with a feeling of african aristocracy, african history, african greatness. and in a way, the fact that he was so far from where white settlements were, so far from cities, preserved that sense of confidence that he had by living in a royal village and being educated by a king and having these kingly and royal responsibilities that were devolved upon him. and what happened when he eventually ran away, because the king tried to arrange a marriage for him, and the king's real son, justice, he ran away to
3:07 am
johannesburg, that was where he first experienced prejudice and racial injustice. and that is what turned him into a revolutionary. but the inheritance he got as a young man gave him confidence, gave him confidence in himself, gave him confidence in the long chain of african leadership that had proceeded him. and when he first joined the anc, this was something that people noticed, that walter susulu noticed, they noticed this young man with his aristocratic bearing had great confidence, great confidence in himself, great belief in the african destiny. that was less true than many young men who were raised in the townships and raised in the cities. yet when he became a leader of the anc, and certainly when he was imprisoned and when he became state president, he embraced that traditional leadership that he came from. many in the anc felt that the white government and the
3:08 am
apartheid powers had tried to play black tribes against each other, and people in the anc would say, we are not tembu, we are not pondos, we are not zulus, we are blacks. and mandela said, no, this culture is important to the people of south africa and we cannot reject it, we must reach out to those people. and it's come full circle when you think, here he is buried in qunu, adjacent to the village in which he was born, in the solemn ceremony that blends east and west, that he's finally come back to his resting place, he's come full circle, and it's a beautiful circle that we see and to echo christiane and cyril, it is, i believe, sets the stage for this extraordinary transformation in south africa that he has ushered in. >> rick stengal, and christiane amanpour, thanks so much for
3:09 am
putting this into context for us, and giving us a look at not just the symbolism of nelson mandela, but the actual accomplishments. we'll continue to have this conversation throughout the morning. thank you both. also tonight on chrnn, christia amanpour starts part one of "retracing back to the beginning." and hard to believe, but weren't is still six days away. you wouldn't really believe that when you look outside and look at this. the third big storm in recent weeks is smothering upstate new york and new england in snow this morning. the boston area may end up with more than a foot before the day is done. the system left a thousand-mile trail of snow across the midwest and places like chicago, detroit, and cleveland have several inches of powder that need to be shoveled off driveways today. cnn's alexander field looks at winter's early blast.
3:10 am
>> reporter: the sights and sounds of a fierce winter storm. overnight, the large swath of snow and ice moved into the northeast, packing a punch that has many in the region digging in for a long winter. >> we've got plenty of salt, but the back roads are starting to stick a little bit. it looks like it's coming down pretty good now, though. they might get a little worse, especially the back roads. >> i'm going to stay in for this and get out of the way. >> reporter: who's's mayor, tom manino, cautioning everyone in holiday season before the worst hits his city. >> be very careful. the roads, there'll be snow on them, and just ask you, celebrate responsibly. this is a snowstorm that is not a major portion. >> reporter: the 1,000-mile path of this system has put from kansas to maine in the bull's-eye, with winter storm
3:11 am
watches and warnings across the board. airport delays caused by the storm are forcing many flights to be cancelled with a ripple effect being felt coast-to-coast. dangerous conditions on the roads are also a major factor. at least one person was killed when a car slid off a missouri interstate. but in new england, the massachusetts d.o.t. says they're ready. >> we have almost 4,000 pieces of equipment. we have both snow spreaders and plows and really heavy pieces of equipment, as well as some specialized snow blowing equipment. >> and yet despite the blizzard-like conditions, not everything came to a halt. the annual army game went on as planned. the navy midshipman beat army for the 12th straight year in a row, 34-7. and erin flanagan got her wish of a white wedding. the pottstown, pennsylvania, bride and her groom said their i

3:16 am
we now know it took just one minute and 20 seconds for the shooter to victimize this entire community with his actions. we've learned that he bought the gun and the ammunition that he used in this shooting legally from a local retailer here in colorado. it was december 6th that 18-year-old carl pearson purchased the gun used in this shooting and he bought the ammunition on his way to school, on the day of the shooting. now, he fired a total of five shots, we've learned. one of those shots, of course, hit 17-year-old claire davis. she's the girl who was shot in the head, in critical condition. the sheriff still believes she was not his intended target, but investigators do believe he intended to cause a lot of harm here at the school. not only did he bring that gun and all that ammunition, he also had a machete and a backpack full of three molotov cocktails. he set off one of those devices inside the school's library. that's also where he took his own life.
3:17 am
the sheriff says he believes it was the quick actions of the school resource officer that may have saved even more lives in this particular case, as the shooter knew he didn't have a lot of time to carry out his plan. >> and i know that claire davis is a young woman of principle, she's a young woman of purpose, she is an innocent young lady. and she was an innocent victim of an evil act of violence. >> i know how much she loves all you guys and i know how much this would mean to her, and i can't thank you guys enough for being here for her, and doing the donations for claire and her family and some other things that i might help them out with. so i want to thank you guys so much for everything you guys are doing for her and her family. i know they appreciate it. so thank you. >> now, that last girl you just heard is a friend of claire davis, the victim. that was a prayer vigil they

didn't really hold back the fans, either? >> what was the snowblower supposed to do? he's in the corner with this -- >> he's trying. >> he tried. all right, well, move over johnny football. there is a new heisman trophy winner. >> yep, florida state's quarterback, james winston was awarded college football's most prestigious prize. the freshman came in with the win. the top player in the game. joe carter's here with this morning's bleacher report. and it wasn't close. >> this was a landslide. he won easily. but second year in a row that a freshman quarterback won the award. jamus winston wins it this year. he's the youngest player to ever win the award. 19 years old. he's turn 20 the day florida state plays auburn, the day of the national championships. but no surprise last night when he heard jameis winston's name
3:23 am
called. he was the landslide this year, won by the seventh largest margin ever. 87% of voters put jameis winston on the ballot. you put them down as one, two, or three. day get points according to how they're placed. now, 115 voters left winston off their ballot altogether, which obviously points to some people having doubts in the sexual assault allegations that surround him right now. obviously, no charges were filed, but the accuser and the accuser's attorney continue to push on. they want to see this thing go to a retrial, to have the case reopened or see it go to a civil sugt. b but he's had a very successful season on the field, but a very trying one off the field and you could hear that in his emotional acceptance speech last night and he addressed it in the post-heisman comments when he sort of mentioned how his parents have gone through a lot too as well. take a listen. >> when i look down in the
3:24 am
stands, when i was giving my speech, i seen my mom's and my dad's eyes and they felt so proud. and i haven't seen they look in their eyes in a long time. and it's not that i feel complete, because i'm still hungry, because we've got a national championship we've got to win, but when you see your mom and you see your dad like, when they've been struggling through this whole process, and now you see a smile on their face, it comforted me. >> so jameis winston is clearly the favorite to win it next year, because he's a freshman, so he has to come back to play one more season before he can go on and play in the nfl. and winning a heisman trophy doesn't mean you'll necessary have select at the next level. we've seen a number of quarterbacks not succeed at that next level. we've put together a list of some of the more famous flops over the last ten years. jason white tops the that list, kid from oklahoma. never got a chance to do anything in the nfl because of his bad knees. next on the list is matt

3:32 am
this morning, there's the storm, and then it pushes out. you can see by 11:00 this morning, boston should be in the clear. we'll just be dealing with some snow across portions of maine, vermont new hampshire, and places like that. but clearing out as we get into the afternoon hours today and especially the overnight. snow totals were impressive, guys, though. look at that. upstate new york, a foot of snow. and north haven, connecticut, 7 inches. boston had 6, central park, 5, and chicago, just over 4 inches of snow. this was quite the beast of a storm. luckily it was pushing out and we'll get a little bit of a breather going through the next couple of days. >> jennifer grey, thank you very much. folks need that breather. >> and it's not even winter yet officially. hey, if you're dreaming of a white christmas, you're going to get it, and probably a white christmas eve and the week leading into it. >> that's right. a thousand-long-mile storm is pushing its way from the northwest to new england and that means millions are waking

crime spree, pamela and victor, but a lot of damage and terrifying moments for this community. in fact, we've learned that the suspect, the shooter who eventually took his own life, came to this school armed with a pump action shotgun. he had a machete, he had three molotov cocktails and several rounds of ammunition that were strapped to his body. he bought that ammunition the day of the shooting, on his way to the school, and shockingly, the gun and the ammunition were purchased legally the from a local dealer here in colorado. because the suspect is 18 years old, it was legal for him to purchase those weapons. we're learning more about the motive this morning. the sheriff telling us that they believe that the debate coach was, indeed, the intended target. apparently, the suspect in the debate coach had an argument of some sort, back in september. there was a disciplinary action taken against karl pierson, the shooter in this case, and at that time in september, he apparently threatened, verbally,
4:13 am
against that debate coach. so, again, he came here, he entered the school, next to the library, where he believed the debate coach was probably standing. he's also a school librarian. now, we've also learned that why they don't believe that the 17-year-old was his intended target, the 17-year-old who was critically injured, they do believe that he came here with the intention to injure multiple people, but the sheriff says that claire davis, the young lady who's now fighting for her life, just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time when pierson entered the buildin building. >> and i know that claire davis is a young woman of principle, she's a young woman of purpose. she is an innocent young lady, and she was an innocent victim of an evil act of violence. >> i know how much she loves all you guys and i know how much

4:21 am
>> and you have that number, but you also have to understand that he had -- he won by the seventh largest margin in history. so for some people, obviously, it was a factor.ly looked a to the investigation and didn't like anything they saw, or the outcome. even though there are no charges against jameis winston, and i think that's what the majority of the voters looked at. when they decided there weren't going to be charges, people clearly said, he's been the most outstanding football player in college football and he the deserves our vote. >> and we've seen other players who have been under those kind of allegations, roethlisberger with the steelers, went on to have successful careers. i think it's important, you emphasize, no charges. he's a freshman, as we said. how long do you think it would be until he goes pro? having a heisman trophy is a pretty big deal. >> he has to wait at least another season. he's a red shirt freshman, has the to wait until after his sophomore season. the rules used to be you have to be a junior, but you have to be 20 years old.
