anna and her friend, they were friends at the time this happened but in spite of the accident or maybe because of it they began dating. they now live together. >> well, that does it for this edition of sgmd. remember, lesson of the day. if you see someone unresponsive, not breathing, call 911 first, then elbows, hands locks, push, push, push, don't stop even if you're sweeting until the paramedics arrive. you could save a life. we are counting down the midterm elections. only nine days to go. both sides, republicans and democrats hauling out their star players to get you to the polls, but is that going to work and for which party? also, it was the controversy

so many people were talking about last week. the npr newsman juan williams who was fired from npr after saying he gets nervous when he sees fellow airline passengers in muslim garb, but is he the only one that feels that way? >> it scares me to think that i walk into an airplane or anyplace, an airport, and strike fear into people's hearts. >> this comment here, it was a very interesting debate. a lot of people are starting to have now. is he the only one that feels that way. is this a matter of bigotry or is it a teaching moment? >> well, from the cnn center, this is "cnn saturday morning." nice to be here. >> it's sunday. but that's okay. >> it's sunday. i skippeded a day. >> you were hoping it was still saturday, i know. just kidding. >> i'll be back here monday, i'm

sure. >> this is suzanne malveaux. i'm t.j. holmes. wherefore you are, we're glad you're with us. over the next 90 minutes the stage is set for the world series. >> a dream come true. i can't imagine a better outcome. >> go giants. yes, san francisco, the little team that could. they beat the phillies. so the giants will face the rangers in the world series. it's not exactly the match-up that people thought we'd see and quite frankly people wanteded to see the yankees versus the phillies. we've got that story coming up for you. also this. ♪ >> whoopg it up in the black church. . we're going to look at the old

style of church. as the minister says whoopee is like gravy. >> it can be so entertaining. fun story. also the midterms. we're nine days away now. we've been telling you for quite some time how important these midterms are. republicans trying to take back control of congress, democrats trying to keep it. the white house putting it all out there on the line right now. take a look here. break down the house. potentially the big payoff for the republicans right now the democrats have a 77 seat advantage. republicans need 10 to take back control there. congressional race is so important. a huge number, 45 considered toss-ups. republicans need 39 to take control of the house. some analysts think they'll get that and more. 13 governors' races also will be divide on november 2nd. actually we've got some 37

governors races that are up for grabs. there are 37 governorships that are up for grabs in a ton of different states. very critical as well. you may not be hearing about those but those are important as well. >> the president, of course, is very much aware of what's at stea stake, and he only has nine days to turn them in his direction. the calendar is a constant reminder. the democratic wave that swept him into office in 2008 threatens to turn into a republican riptide that could drown his administration in the midterm elections. now, the president needs young voters in particular to come out again in large numbers. so at a rally in seattle yesterday, he laid it out on the line telling the crowd, i need you to keep fighting. >> it looks like they're kind of fired up. ai need you fired up. because in just ten day use have

the chance not just to set the direction of the state but also help to determine the direction of this country, not just for the next two years but the next five years, the next ten years, the next 20 years. and just like you did in 2008, you have the chance to defy the conventional wisdom. >> well, the president has a very busy week this week. he has several more campaign events that are going to be coming up but he's also going to be taking time to appear with comedian jon stewart. on monday he's in woonsocket, rhode island. he's going to be talking about the economy and attending a congressional fundraiser. on wednesday he make reemarks a a violence against women. and then he tapes with the show jon stewart. he'll be appearing in the washington areand a on saturday he's campaigning for democrats

in philadelphia, bridgeport, connecticut, and in chicago. a very busy week for the president. obviously a lot at stake when it comes to the midterm elections. he's going to be weighing in to take his star power and prez dep chal podium to get people to the polls. listen now to within republican senator, don thune was likening the president and the republican address this morning to a failed science project. take a listen. >> president obama has been running around the country trying to re-elect democrat members of congress, but if the conversations i've had with voters are any indication, the president should save less time campaigning to save the jobs of democrats in congress and more time to create jobs for people. one of the main jobs over the past two years was to improve the economy. instead they desighed to try an experiment to grow government, raise taxes, and take over health care. the obama experiment has failed.

>> friends, the president is now telling us that we're not thinking straight because of all the fear and frustration that americans have. he claims facts, science, and arguments aren't winning the day because we're not thinking straight, quote/unquote. well, you know, mr. president, you've got it right on one point there. we are afraid knowing that your economic policies are driving us off a cliff. >> well, off a cliff, some may see that as the perfect visual for the florida race, the senate race in florida november 2nd. there are going to be two candidates who will know that feeling of falling off a cliff. right now it's a three-way race. the democrat meek on the left, republican rubio and charlie crist running as an independent. they t three are going to debate

at 9:00 a.m. eastern right after this programming. 'll want to see this. mark preston is live in tampa to cover this debate. mark, let's stuart off with florida. you're in a critically important place there, obviously a swing state. the president has been there many, many times. what are we saying now? how important is that race that we had mentioned for the senate seat? >> reporter: well, suzanne, of course, florida a very important state. always seems to be every erectie election cycle. right now if you were to look at polling it shows that marco rubio has a double-digit lead. we'll see some fireworks i suspect in lesses that an hour when the three men take the stage in debate. in addition to that we have a

governors race. and of course we talk about the republicans taking back the house of representatives. there's about four, five, six seats that republicans think they can take back. of course, that would be critical because they need 39 seats to take back control of the house, suzanne. >> what do we -- how do we gain this? what are the odds here? >> well, let's just take it chamber by chamber. house of representatives, very good odds that republicans will take that back. eve democrats were conceding to me about a month ago they were going to lose 30 seats. that playing field keeps expanding. folks who always won, never had tough re-elections were asking bill clinton to come in and campaign on their behalf. so when you see democrats like that asking for hope, you know that democrats are in trouble nchlt the senate, it's going to be a tough road for them to get to because the fact is they need to pick up ten seats. here in florida, marco rubio, the republican, looks like he'll

hold onto the seat. but, again, ten seats is kind of a tough road for republicans to march toward november 2%. when we talk about governors, lookings like republicans can pick up between six and eight seats so heading to november 2 bld, it's not a question if they'll have a good night but a big night. >> thanks so much. we'll be watching that debate coming up at 9:00. thanks. >> we're going to turn away from politics here now to go to a developing story in haiti, a cholera outbreak there that has killed more 2457b 00 people. now some serious concerns that the thing could get worse, could spread. they were trying to contain it to a certain area that's north of the capital of port-au-prince. however, we don't know exactly if that has been a success. those efforts seen. paula newton is at the capital on the phone. update us. i know a big concern was trying to keep this from spreading to port-au-prince. has that been the case?

>> the big concern is there are five cases of cholera within the capital. they're on medicine. doctors are now rushing to that region. the scene described a ed at the hospital still chaotic. 're hoping to turn around that situation in the next couple of days. the problem is if the infection reaches on the port-au-prince, they're still struggling with the aftermath of the earthquake, that the consequences in there will be disastrous. t.j.? >> all right. paula newton with the update for us near port-au-prince in haiti. thank you so much. npr fires williams after he makes contentious remarks about muslims sparking a big debate about bigotry. ♪

23 minutes past the hour. it appears democrats have a new talking point against republicans calling them more now than just the party of no. now the big topic is third party spending. that's fresh now, fresh issue on the campaign trail. both the house speaker nancy pelosi and the president blasted the amount of money being spent by nonprofit groups on candidates. they did stumping last night in indianapolis. >> on the final days before midterm election millions of dollars are going into advertisements by all sorts of groups pushing their agent dans, and analysts say the totals could be in the billions. josh levs is here to take look at all of this because this is really unprecedented what we see in this campaign. >> it's interesting to hear some of them as we were hearing from t.j. complaining about the republicans side begin of money. there's a lot of republican money that opened up for third-party groups this year but

democrats as well. in fact, because it's the midterm, many of the ads are targeting specific states. what i want to do is start off with one that got a lot of attention in recent days. >> this november we need to send a message to all politicians. if they didn't keep their promise on immigration reform, then they can't count on our vote. democratic leaders must play for their broken promises and betrayals. if we go on supporting them again in november, they'll keep playing games an taking our vote for grant. don't vote this november. >> those are the words that really got people talking. don't vote. this ad was also made in spanish. it sparred controversy after it aired on radio. the spanish line pulled it. the group behind it is latinos for reform. i'm told they're made up of about ten people. it's the latest in the part of a big phenomenon, concerning

third-party grouping getting money for ad this year. cnn's consultant evan tracy explained. >> it's a roll reversal. they weren't happy with the way things were going. in 2008 obviously they weren't happy with john mccain who were trying to put these grouping out of business and you had democrats energized and motivated. this year because there's no single parent bill, cap and trade didn't pass, you didn't see any democratic money come into the process but you're starting to see it now. i think the president has really been hitting on this issue and he's probably got some of that democratic money off the sidelines and back into these race sthoos there are some third-party ads pushing as well. the ads we looked at focused on those in nevada. i want you to take a look at this, pushing for harry reid. take a look here. >> high school was 46 miles away. they said going would be

impossible, so he walked and hitched his way. 46 every monday, 46 back come friday. >> it phrases harry read doing what seems impossible. like most groups this calls itself nonpartisan. the conversation continues. we're hearing from you about whether you think these third party adds will influence your vote. so far, tchl j. and suzanne, a lot of people weighing in saying they're trying to vote against. it turns them off to candidates when they see third-party ads. we'll see. we'll get a sense of how it plays out. tons of money this year running often that system. and if it works, then we can expect a lot more of that if the following elections. >> all right, josh. we appreciate it. thanks so much. coming on the bottom of the hour here now, he's been talked a lot about this week, juan williams used to host the show "talk of

>> if you have fear, does that mean the same thing as being bigoted? >> yes, it is. yes, it is. because i believe fear is based upon lack of knowledge. >>. >> reporter: to overcome a look of knowledge, this bay shore, new york mosque joined a number of mosques nationwide inviting them to spend time with them, not only to listen to sermons but breaking bread. this woman accepted the invitation and wished more would. >> they need to want to educate themselves. people think they know it all, people think that they understand and they're not open minded. >> one said williams comments were not bigotry but a wakeup call. >> he voiced an opinion. in that context we should regard the remarks as food for dialogue

crist who ran first the republican primary and then began to run away with marco rubio. so crist dropped out of the race, became an inpen e dent. he's still running for the senate. marco rubio the republican, it brings together the tea party part of it. he's trying to become a little more removed from it in recent weeks. so, you know, we've got a great race here in florida and something i think because we're so close to tend, i think you'll see some fireworks because the last wee saw in the st. petersburg times poll this morning, rubio was ahead by 15 points. that's huge. basically the two folks trail having what? eight days to figure out how to close that gap. and exclusively what you do when you're running behind at this late date is you go after the front runner so i expect that the target will be on marco rubio's back.

>> explain why it's so important. we know it's a swing state, but why should people be paying attention this morning to florida? >> well, first of all because this is one of the seats, really, that republicans have to hold onto. second of all, i think when you look at florida, it's always -- at least in the past since 2000 has been one of those states that we really look at to kind of watch trends, and i think, third, this state has been just blasted by bad economic times. unemployment has been nearly 12%. they're one of the states with the highest number of mortgage foreclosures so they're really kind of the petri dish here for bad economic times. so it has a lot of kind of national implications but also sort of becomes the substitute for what's going on in the nation as a whole. >> all right. candy crowley, we are just about 22 minutes away from a special

living in financial bondage. >> reporter: it's a problem exacerbated in today's economy, the worst since the depression. longtime church members doug and mary jeffries feel like they're living in financial bondage. they refinanced their home twice and are now on the verge of foreclosure. they've turned to their pastor for help. >> one day i just broke down. we were at a funeral at the church and then soaries in his style pull up and said how are you doing. i said i ain't doing so well today. said what's going on. that's when i had to tell him what the deal was. >> douglas kind of convinced me he was going to ask anyway. said, well, okay, but i was relucta reluctant. >> was it embarrassing? >> oh, yeah, quite. >> why help doug and mary jeffries? super nice people nchlt a way they make enough money. they could move to another place.

marked insufficient end funds. so this relationship between freedom and financial prosperity, we have to agitate and challenge institutions to change their behavior. most of the subprime loans are targeted toward african-americans. at the same time we have to challenge people to change their personal behavior. this is why we're building the financial center. >> which is it more so? we're talking about systematic hurdles that keep people away, keep latinos and blacks down in debt or is it a matter of personal responsibility and financial literacy? >> i really think it's both. racism is reenforced and kals feed at every level of society. blacks still are the ones who were targeted for the subprime loans. we saw the largest loss of wealth among blacks in the last eight years, largely as a result of these subprime loans in modern history. so we have to address that. at the same time there are

things we have to do. that's why we're building a financial center at baptist ebenezer church. >> a lot of people -- it might not trigger initially. you're now a pastor at ebenezer here in downtown atlanta where reverend martin king jr. used to preach. >> that's right. >> a lot of people might not, quite frankly, make a lot of sense to them, but there is no more perfect place, quite frankly, to put it. >> that's right. we were very fortunate. about a year ago i connected with a young man by the name of john hope briechblt they have these hope banking centers, about nine of them in metropolitan cities across the metropolitan united states. this will be the first one in a church. so as people come to hope ebenezer, our ebenezer financial center, which will be housed in a community center named after daddy king, we, quite frankly -- i'm a baptist preacher. we want them to have a

conversion experience. convert them from renters to homeowners, convert them from being check cashing customers to banking customers, convert the credit scores. >> we know how churches can play a hand. but how does faith, how does one faith factor into their fitnesses? >> faith is very important. i have to tell you i'm really seeing it in my church and as i move through the community. people are under a lot of stress these days, and their faith holds them. at the same time we've got to connect inspiration to information. >> all right. reverend warnock, i appreciate your coming in this morning. what are you going to talk about? >> i'm talking about the love of god. i hope to see you in church soon. >> we should bring a pastor in every sunday. thanks for coming by. suzanne. in afghanistan there is a heavy social pressure to have a son, so what happens if you

we are just about eight minutes away from a special "state of the union" with candy crowl crowley. she is going to be monitoring the florida senate debate, three candidates, crist, meek, and rubio. going at it about eight days

reasons they do this. they do it for economic reasons. the boys can go off and work and they do it for soishl reasons so the child can play outside, wear pants and they can tell people they have a boy. in fact, the little you're looking at, her/his mother is a member of parliament and i want you to listen to what she lad to say about what it is and why she e's doing it. she says when you don't have a son in afghanistan, it's like a big missing in your life, like you lost the most important point of your life. everybody feels sad for you. so she had two older girls and then had a third daughter, this little one. and as a member of par lament her constituents felt bad so they desighed to turn the youngest daut sbeer a little boy, which is not uncommon. >> and the thing i don't understand is people in the afghan society, they all know when they're looking at this little girl dressed as a boy,

they know that that is a girl, but they're treating the girl as a boy because -- >> close friends and relatives will know that she's really a girl. but when she goes out into the street or goes shopping for the family or escorts the other girls, people don't know up till puberty. therein lies the problem. at puberty they have to turn back into a girl and look at the problems that brings. but it's not an uncommon custom. in "the new york times," they can't say exactly how many but they believe the practice dates back to as early as the 1900s. there's a picture of a young boy/girl protecting a harem. >> what's the psychological effect? >> i want to show you this picture of a woman who's now in her 50s. she was about 20. can you imagine that kind of gender confusion? an she said at 20 she was then forced to marry. now, you would not think to defy

your parents when imcame to being forced to mair and suddenly dressed as a boy wearing pants she trips over her burka. she said she was very lucky she married a good man. they only went through a bit of conflict once. he tried to hit her and she hit him back and that was the end of that. she looks back at the years being a man. she said it was so much easier to live as a man in afghanistan. >> fascinating and a shame at the same time. >> do you know that 100 million girls are said in india and china are said to be the victims of gendercide. >> we appreciate you bringing these things to us. a quick break here folks about. we'll be raich back. ♪ when the parts for the line ♪ ♪ come precisely on time ♪ that's logistics ♪ ♪ a continuous link, that is always in sync ♪ ♪ that's logistics ♪
