up. if he loses it, we may be looking at the convention scenario. >> real quick, yes or no answer. can cruz beat hillary? >> yeah, i think he can. >> ed? >> yes. >> no way. >> okay. that will do it for us. thanks, panel. this is a fox news alert. we're awaiting election results from the republican primary in puerto rico. >> that contest is a winner take all, 23 delegates are at stake. the polls closed exactly two hours ago. we'll bring you those results as soon as they come in. but first, we start with the nation and the world paying tribute to former first lady nancy reagan at this hour. mrs. reagan known for her dignity, her grace, as well as her influence and devotion to her husband, president ronald reagan, especially during his eight years in the white house. she died today at the age of 94.
1:01 pm
hello again, everyone. and welcome to a special edition of "america's election headquarters" as we remember nancy reagan. >> mrs. reagan's assistant says she died at her home in bel-air, california, this morning of congestive heart failure. a former actress, nancy reagan shared a love of life and a devotion to public service with her husband of 52 years, president ronald reagan. here she is in her own words. >> we only make this trip once, i think. and we really should make it count. >> william is live outside her residence with the latest. >> reporter: i think you know this area. we are just north of ucla. and this is the estate purchased for the reagans almost 30 years ago by friends of the couple. nancy did live here for almost
1:02 pm
30 years. since 1988. she died of congestive heart failure this morning. she was 94. this is the same home that ronald reagan died in 2004. earlier today, a nurse was seen leaving this property, and around 9:30 this morning, a hearse arrived. since then, about four vehicles have arrived. we cannot identify who was inside. the reagans had two children, patty and ron jr. and then two stepchildren, maureen and michael, by ronald reagan's first wife. later, we saw a neighbor delivering three bouquets of flowers. those were given to an officer, who gave them to a secret service agent. her nickname, by the way, was rainbow by the secret service. i want to give you a quick look live, as you see here, the media is lined up outside the residence. we're waiting for that hearse to leave. as mark pans over a little bit, you can see there's a security fence, probably ten to 12 feet tall. and then again this is the only entrance to the estate as well. now, i want to say that the last
1:03 pm
time mrs. reagan was seen in public was around june 2014 at the reagan library. she was in a wheelchair. it was the ten-year anniversary of the president's death. she was rarely seen in public since. very frail in health. but the head of the library said her mental acuity has not diminished whatsoever. in 2012, she broke a rib from a fall. in 2008, she broke a pelvis. was hospitalized then. and her last extensive interview with the media was 2009 in "vanity fair." she was born in 1921 in new york city. she was an only child. her parents divorced shortly thereafter. she became an actress. and by the way, she was adopted by dr. loyal davis when her mother remarried. he was out of chicago. and she took his name when she was adopted. she appeared in 11 films. of course, her introduction to the political world was 1966 when ronald reagan became governor of california. and of course, she was considered very influential as
1:04 pm
an adviser as well as a trusted aid to the president. now, i want to bring you up to speed on what we know about the services. here's what we believe to occur. we're expecting a motorcade to arrive. some motorcycle officers will escort the individuals inside as well as the hearse to the mortuary. she'll stay at the mortuary for several days and then be transferred. we don't know exactly the day yet. two or three days, to the reagan library, where she'll lie in repose for one day. the public will have the ability at a closed casket to pay their respects to nancy reagan, and then she'll be buried alongside her husband ronny. obviously, remembrances coming in from around the world, one that i particularly poignant was from michael reagan. "nancy is now where she wants to be, with her husband ronny." >> and that seems to be the sentiment. want to remind our viewers to stay tuned here at 5:00 p.m. eastern after eric and i finish, when bret baier anchors more of
1:05 pm
our coverage, remembering the incredible life of former first lady nancy reagan. that's right here on the fox news channel. the results on super saturday reflecking what seems to be an increasingly divided republican party. donald trump and senator ted cruz each winning two states yesterday, effectively splitting the vote. many high profile members of the gop, they continue to take a pretty hard stance against their own frontrunner. >> over prefer rubio over kasich, rubio and kasich over cruz, but at least ted is a conservative. >> i love america. i'm concerned about america. and i believe the heart and soul of conservatives and republicans recognize that the principles that donald trump is talking about have nothing to do with conservatives and nothing to do with keeping america strong. >> will the criticisms work and continue? carl cameron is in detroit reporting live for us. hi, carl. >> reporter: hi, eric.
1:06 pm
there's no question about it. the never trump movement is gaining some ground. got to remember that all these candidates said they would support the nominee even if it was mr. trump. and mr. trump said he would not run as a third party candidate. donald trump pulled off a couple of victories and they were not insignificant. he won in louisiana which is the only primary. the other three states were caucuses yesterday. and he won kentucky. as a consequence, he continues to rack up delegates more than his rivals, but he did split with ted cruz, who had a particularly good day, winning both kansas and maine. again, both caucuses. but he was not expected to have won there. polls and the lay of the land indicated that trump might have run the table yesterday, so for cruz to pick up a couple was a very good sign. and it's the kind of wins that he needs if he wants to be the alternative to donald trump. it did sort of leave marco rubio in the dust. rubio yesterday came up with nothing. in maine, he was actually fourth, beaten by john kasich,
1:07 pm
who pulled off third place. rubio yesterday was actually in puerto rico positioning himself for the caucuses -- the primary that's taking place there today. that might be one where he could pick up a win. it would only be rubio's second win overall. and then there's the ohio governor, john kasich. kasich is today still campaigning in michigan. he was campaigning with arnold schwarzenegger. and they were trading stories about their mutual admiration society as former governors, and schwarzenegger has been a supporter of kasich's for a number of years. and this morning on one of the sunday shows, kasich made the case that it is unlikely in his view that donald trump will have enough delegates to actually win the nomination, and therefore all of the candidates in the race could conceivably continue their march and get to the convention. listen to mr. kasich. >> no one's going to have the numbers. what are you talking about? i would have to win 68% of the remaining contests, okay? 68% of the remaining delegates.
1:08 pm
marco would have to win like 64. ted would have to win, like, 60. donald trump's going to fall short. >> and one of the things that all the candidates are sort of trying to negotiate and figure out is whether or not it is smarter for a few of them to get out, leaving only one alternative to trump in the race, or stay in the race, deny him the delegates and force it to go to a contested convention in ohio in the middle of the summer. >> all right, carl, we'll be following all this and have a representative of senator ted cruz later on discuss the way forward. good to see you from downtown detroit. meanwhile, democratic rivals hillary clinton and bernie sanders are facing -- preparing to face off on the debate stage tonight. this time in flint, michigan, ahead of tuesday's primary in the state. the two head into tonight to debate with sanders having swept caucuses in kansas and nebraska, on saturday while clinton won the louisiana primary. senior political correspondent mike emanuel is live from flint, michigan, with more. hi, mike.
1:09 pm
>> hi. hillary clinton is hoping for a decisive win here in michigan, while senator bernie sanders is hoping to breakthrough in a large diverse state. clinton started her sunday by visiting three detroit churches and making some remarks. she told parishioners michigan is an incredibly important state and she praised the state and the city of detroit for their resilience. clinton also spoke about the contaminated water crisis here in flint. she talked about fixing the pipes in flint. meanwhile, senator bernie sanders continues doing events across the midwest. big rallies in places like michigan and ohio. he's embraced his underdog role in places like michigan. sanders keeps criticizing clinton's support of free trade agreements over the years, saying that they've been bad for workers here across the midwest,
1:10 pm
clearly hoping it will score him points in places like michigan, despite polls suggesting clinton is leading, this morning sanders said don't count him out. >> i'm very proud that many of these match-ups that take place, sanders versus trump, clinton versus trump, you know who's doing better? bernie sanders is. we are closing the gap here in michigan, and i think we're going to surprise people on election night. >> we are here in flint, where of course, the water crisis is the issue. expect candidate questions to b candidates about how they would fix it. the hillary clinton e-mail controversy continues through this campaign. "the washington post" analysis shows that mrs. clinton sent 104 e-mails over that private server when she was secretary of state. the government has since said that they did contain classified
1:11 pm
information. mrs. clinton has long maintained there was nothing marked classified in her e-mails. >> it isn't just the e-mails that she wrote, but also the e-mails that she received that are getting some attention now. "the washington post" analyzed thousands of e-mailed chains and conversations that went through hillary clinton's private e-mail server during her time as secretary of state and found 104 e-mails that she wrote that have now been deemed classified. there also were e-mails written by about 300 other diplomats, top obama administration officials, and foreigners that are classified now. and that are usually forwarded to clinton by an aid, and again, went through her private server. according to the post, "the analysis raises difficult questions about how the government treats sensitive information. it suggests that either material is being overclassified, as clinton and her allies have
1:12 pm
charged, or that classified material is being handled improperly with regularity by government officials at all levels, or some combination of the two." also last week, one of clinton's staffers at the state department was given immunity by the department of justice in the probe of clinton's e-mails. he set up clinton's private server. today, clinton said she was "delighted" that he was granted immunity and says that this shows it's moving towards closure of this issue. here's more. >> yeah, i do. absolutely. i think we're getting closer and closer to wrapping this up. i also know that there were reports today about the hundreds of officials and the thousand e-mails that they were sending back and forth that have been looked at and classified retroactively. this really raises serious questions about this whole process. >> still, republicans charge that clinton's private server may have allowed foreign
1:13 pm
governments to hack in and see u.s. government information. and the inspector general of the intelligence community has said that some of the material that went through clinton's private server was classified at the time, but may not have been labeled as such. >> all right, thank you, molly. police right here in new york city on the hunt for a dangerous suspect, accused of pushing a young girl into the path of an oncoming subway. the chilling details. and what investigators are saying about the girl's condition. and officials in one major city are taking a tough stand against the homeless. coming up, we'll have the reasons behind that bold move. plus, much more on the life and legacy of former first lady nancy reagan, who died today at the age of 94. we asked a group of young people when they thought they should start saving for retirement.
1:14 pm
then we asked some older people when they actually did start saving. this gap between when we should start saving and when we actually do is one of the reasons why too many of us aren't prepared for retirement. just start as early as you can. it's going to pay off in the future. if we all start saving a little more today, we'll all be better prepared tomorrow. prudential. bring your challenges. i'm definitely able to see savings through using the car buying on usaa. i mean, amazing savings. i was like, wow, if i could save this much, then i could actually maybe upgrade a little bit.

1:18 pm
trans transit authority and rank all the way up to captain. thankfully, a rain stopped in time and the girl was take on the the hospital with only minor injuries. and in denver, officials there -- actually, that is the subway suspect video as you can see right now. the man who allegedly pushed the teenage girl on to the subway tracks. let's go now to denver where the officials there are planning to evict homeless people from a camp. on tuesday, crews would start removing items like tarps. more now on our top story. the sad news that nancy reagan has died at the age of 94. she passed away this morning at her home in los angeles in the bel-air area.
1:19 pm
joining me now on the phone is someone who knew mrs. reagan very well, that is pat buchanan, president ronald reagan's white house communications director. mr. buchanan, thank you so much for being here unfortunately on this very sad day. >> it is a sad day, but she had a wonderful life. she had a husband that loved her very much and she went through and became an actress in hollywood and married the man she loved and lived with him for decades afterwards. so i think it's also a time of celebration of quite a life. >> i agree with you. we had someone earlier saying mrs. reagan is where she has been longing to be for a better part of her latter days. and that is alongside her beloved ronny. i want to go here, though, mr. buchanan. if you had any personal interaction with the first lady, and what were your memories of that? >> well, let me tell you about
1:20 pm
my first one. i was with mr. nixon, former president nixon in san clemente and i was invited up to a meeting with the governor whom i had endorsed in a meeting, just before the republican convention at kansas city where governor reagan didn't quite make it, came very, very close. i was invited to lunch. mrs. reagan was there and john sears and the governor, and we were all having lunch. and i discovered that the most penetrating questions about how many delegates the governor had were coming from her end of the table. she was very much on top what was going on, and on the schwieker nomination, and she was pressing my friend john sears as hard as i would press him if i were on crossfire, and i thought she really knew her
1:21 pm
onions about politics. and issues. and when i got to the white house, i came in there and mike deaver left, although he was much closer to the president than i was and certainly to the first lady as he had been taking her calls. and don regan had become chief of staff. he called me in one time and said the lady is calling me several times every day. so she took a real interest in what her husband was doing and what kinds of decisions were being made. >> so to that point, was the president's white house staff quite aware of mrs. reagan's influence on the president? >> well, i was aware, and certainly don regan was aware to the point that she felt it was almost a distraction to him how often she called. i'm sure when he was there, she had an old friend who she talked with regularly, and so she dealt with issues of presentation and
1:22 pm
the communications strategy, but also the issues strategy. i was also at reykjavik when that summit blew up. we drove that long hour drive to get air force one, and the president of the united states said he was going to be delighted to get home to nancy even though he had missed dinner. >> absolutely, absolutely. what a wonderful story. that is what we do remember of that love affair that they continued to have. >> and it was both sides. back when the president left office, there was a book that came out that was very derogatory and personal against his wife. so i wrote a column about it. and i got this hand-written note from the president of the united states that was just before the alzheimer's set in, and it was just wonderful and expressed how much -- how he felt that he regretted he couldn't get out and defend her himself, and how
1:23 pm
much he appreciated this. it really was a real love affair. >> pat buchanan, thank you so much for sharing those personal stories. >> thank you. >> good to talk to you. >> and we'll have much more on the life and times of nancy reagan. james baker will be joining us later on in our newscast with his view. and we will look back at her storybook journey with her husband from hollywood to the white house and look at the countless lives they touched. that all just ahead. also, ted cruz going toe-to-toe with donald trump on super saturday. so is this now a two-man race for the gop nomination?

the united states and the world mourning the loss of former first lady nancy reagan today after her death of congestive heart failure at the age of 94. adam hausley has a look back at mrs. reagan's extraordinary life and legacy. >> anne francis robins, nicknamed nancy, was born in new york city on july 6th, 1921. she was raised by her mother edie, an actress, and had little contact with her father after her parents divorced. in 1929, edie married dr. loyal davis. nancy and her stepfather became close. he adopted her when she turned 14, and nancy took his last name. nancy graduated from smith college in 1943 with a drama degree. she appeared in plays in new york before landing a contract with mgm. she moved to hollywood and would ultimately appear in 11 films.
1:29 pm
in the fall of 1949, a trade paper reported nancy had communist ties. in her 1989 memoir, she explained how a director friend asked the president of her union to help. >> late that afternoon, the phone rang. nancy davis, this is ronald reagan from the screen actors guild and i have some answers for you. if you're free for dinner tonight, perhaps we could talk about it then. well, i stammered, i think i could manage it. >> reporter: the pair had a simple, secret wedding on march 4th, 1952. daughter patty was born in october that same year. son ron followed in 1958. nancy has said she thought she married an actor, but she soon realized his real passion was working with the republican party. he ran for governor, won by a landslide, and nancy served as first lady of california from 1967 to 1975.
1:30 pm
the reagans had been married nearly three decades when they moved into the white house and nancy later admitted her years in sacramento did little to prepare her for the national stage. >> nancy reagan had this image that really didn't accurately portray her, but it was very regal, above others. it was a totally unfair characterization. >> but her priorities quickly shifted. >> i spent a good deal of time with her that day, and she was definitely in shock. she was very quiet. >> from then on, the president's safety became her utmost priority. she kept an eye on his travels, an although criticized, turned to astrology for guidance. then came one of her most defining moments. >> just say no. >> those three words forever in the american lexicon. when it came to policy, nancy, for the most part, kept her distance. she focused on being the president's wife.
1:31 pm
>> you seldom saw them when they weren't holding hands. they genuinely preferred to be with each other than anyone else. >> the reagans lived a private life after they retired to california, until 1994 when the former president revealed he had alzheimer's disease, a battle he would lose ten years later. >> it was, she described, as a long goodbye. how difficult that was for her. but i think she did it with great dignity. i think she preserved his dignity. it's a part of her legacy, something she will always be remembered for. >> nancy lived quietly after the president's passing. appearing occasionally at events honoring her husband. >> the statue is a wonderful likeness of ronnie. and he would be so proud. >> and he proud of her. while the woman the secret service called rainbow is now gone, her time as first lady remains an indelible part of history. not only to her country, but to
1:32 pm
her husband. >> a legacy that will last forever. former first lady nancy reagan gone today at the age of 94. we have a fox news alert for you now in the race for president. the associated press projecting that senator marco rubio has won the republican primary in puerto rico. it is a winner take all contest there if a candidate gets more than 50% of the vote, 22 delegates are at stake. right now we're told the ap showing that senator rubio has 74% of the vote, but the vote is not yet finished. the majority of the vote there is not yet in. but despite that, the ap is projecting that that is a win for senator rubio. now for senator ted cruz and he is taking steps in his attempt to try and derail the donald trump train. senator cruz pulling out the wins yesterday in two of the four states, voting on super
1:33 pm
saturday. he also gave mr. trump a run for his money in the states that he lost. let's take a look at the latest delegate count. it shows the senator trailing mr. trump by 82 delegates, but it is getting closer. so the big question on sunday, can he keep up the momentum? joining me now is senator cruz's senior adviser for foreign policy. welcome, good to see you. first, the number of delegates. 382 to 300. it's getting closer. do you think you'll be gaining on trump? >> definitely. we've been very encouraged by what happened on saturday night, and then how it's played out. i think they just reallocated louisiana, 18 for each of them. we had the big wins in kansas and in maine, and basically to tie louisiana, very well in kentucky. i think this is a great weekend for senator cruz. >> what do you think is going on? the attacks on trump that we saw by senator cruz and marco rubio
1:34 pm
at the debate? >> i think for senator cruz, this is all about drawing a clear policy distinction between himself and mr. trump. he doesn't really get into the finger jokes or that kind of thing. the makeup. he's trying to talk about things like mr. trump's records, the positions he's taking now, that he's changing now. and then very much talking to the american people about senator cruz's plans to keep them prosperous here at home and safe abroad. so that's really his goal. that's why we're now seeing people choose him as a conservative champion who can really take back the white house in 2016 and take our country back. >> who's going to drop out? what do you think will happen? >> well, i think after such a good victory, both a good night on super tuesday and a good night on saturday, it's a little hard to ask senator cruz with 300 delegates to drop out.
1:35 pm
we were all very moved and grateful to the people who continued to support him. as far as we're concerned, we're in it for the duration. >> what do you think will happen in florida? >> i've decided my crystal ball has a crack in it after kansas. >> they showed us down six points. i think for us -- i mean, we've seen in the past a very strong basis of support for senator cruz in florida. opening ten offices this week. he's in it for every single event we can get. he's working extremely hard. we're all headed down to miami for the debate, which is a nice perk of the job this week.
1:36 pm
as i said, we're going to work the whole state and see what he can do. >> that's coming up march 15th. i'm sorry we're out of time, but you do have a special message. >> i do. thank you, eric. i just want to wish a happy 80th birthday to the best dad in the world. thank you. >> what's his name? >> eugene gardner. >> mr. gardner, happy birthday. thank you. >> thank you. >> victoria, work hard in florida and have a good time. >> we will. >> very nice. happy birthday, mr. gardner. and we're continuing our special coverage of the life and legacy of former first lady nancy reagan. we're going to talk with one of president reagan's closest advisers and we'll get his recollections on what made mrs. reagan such an influential figure in american politics. customers ask if all vitamins are the same. i tell them the difference is quality. gnc formulas exceed the highest standards. now buy one get one half off select fish oils, probiotics, multivitamins and more. what's right for you?
1:37 pm
just ask. we make it simple. gnc. the cat and the fiddle, the cow jumped over the moon... then quickly fell back to earth landing on the roof of a dutch colonial. luckily geico recently helped the residents with homeowners insurance. they were able to get the roof repaired like new. test. on homeowners insurance. it takes a lot of work... but i really love it.s. i'm on the move all day long... and sometimes, i just don't eat the way i should. so i drink boost® to get the nutrition that i'm missing.
1:38 pm
1:41 pm
said i was a fluff head. you know? [ laughter ] that all i was interested in was clothes and shopping. you know, all that. >> decorating and so forth. >> yeah. then, i guess after ronnie was shot, there was a kind of a quiet period there. >> they called a truce for a while, right? >> yeah. then all of a sudden i was running the world. i was nuclear decisions and all of that. >> wasn't that charming? and just so real. there was nancy reagan, of course, after leaving the white house, sitting down with johnny carson and talking about some of the public's misconceptions about her during her husband's administration. and now one of the president's top advisers joins us. he is the former secretary of state james baker. he wrote today in part this on
1:42 pm
the passing of mrs. reagan, saying "nancy reagan was one half of the team that restored our nation's pride and confidence in itself and reinvigorated america's leadership role in the world. she was her husband's closest adviser, his constant protector, and most importantly, the love of his life." secretary baker joins us now from houston from the baker institute, the center for public affairs. mr. secretary, first, my condolences. i've been in the hallways of your institute. you've got the photos of the president and mrs. reagan and you. your reflections and remembrances on this sad day? >> well, it is a sad day, eric, and thanks for having me. nancy reagan was a remarkable woman, and what i said in that statement i officially believe she was his absolute partner in achieving what he achieved. she was one half of the team. without her, none of what he
1:43 pm
accomplished, in my view, could have been accomplished. she had extraordinarily fine, sensitive political antenna. with respect to communications policy and things like that. she did not try to insert herself into every policy decision in the white house. but on the big ticket items, we on the staff always knew that if you had nancy reagan on your side, you had a hell of a lot better chance of seeing what you wanted to see accomplish accomplished. >> tell me a bit about that. she was influential, somewhat obviously with gorbachev and the soviet union, pushing the president on some of those issues. >> that's correct. >> how did that work? >> well, that's correct. but it wasn't a case of her picking up the phone and calling the chief of staff and saying here's what i think ought to be done. it was more a case of the we
1:44 pm
were trying to pursue let's say tax reform, fundamental tax reform, which president reagan was successful in accomplishing in 1986, the first time in 100 years anybody had been successful in trying to do that, and there were bumps in the road with respect to whether the president would or would not do this or that or the other, go up to the hill, do this. she was always an ally. if you wanted him to go to the hill and you had her on your side, you could generally expect after a while that he might be willing to go to the hill. she was very influential with him. but she really was his protector, and she could judge people on the staff as to whether they were paddling their own canoe or whether they were pursuing the president's agenda. >> where did that come from? how was she able to use that judgment to the betterment, not just of the president, but for our country? >> well, you know, the president was totally guileless.
1:45 pm
he never saw any evil in anybody. he thought the best of everybody. but nancy was a bit more realistic and a bit more pragmatic. i think she understood that politics wasn't bean bag, and she was very good about making sure that the staff was pursuing the president's agenda. and you know, she did have a significant voice in staffing decisions. as you know, eric, i ran -- i led two campaigns against president reagan before he came to me after he won the presidency in 1980 and asked me to be his white house chief of staff. i don't think that's ever going to happen again in american politics. but it was a pretty good indication of the broad gauge nature of this president, the president elect at that time.
1:46 pm
why did he do that? he did that because they recognized that they needed someone there who understood how washington worked. who had been there before. and the impetus for that decision came from nancy reagan. and from stu spencer. but particularly from nancy reagan. >> you wrote that about that in your wonderful book. how she did have an eye for talent, and you said, "nancy reagan soon became an ally and lobbied her husband to appoint me." so she definitely did have a sense and an influence that bettered us all. >> particularly with respect to personnel, eric. to some extent, to a lesser extent perhaps with respect to policy, but she didn't have policy views that she held viscerally. if it was good -- if she thought it was good for the president politically, that's what she would be for. if she thought it was good for
1:47 pm
