welcome to a brand-new hour inside america's election headquarters. >> topping the news this hour, choice words today from donald trump's running mate, mike pence, about hillary clinton, after she called millions of trump supporters, quote, deplorables, something she now says she regrets. >> escalating their battle over russia and the role of vladimir putin. our political panel is here to weigh in on that. >> this, as syria gets a stamp of approval in the cease-fire

deal. but will russia keep its ally in check and follow through? we'll have a live report and analysis with the details. >> but we begin with donald trump's running mate mike pence addressing the values voter summit in washington. governor pence working to energize religious conservatives who question the authenticity of mr. trump's presbyterian faith. the governor attempting to put those questions to rest. christian fisher is there live at the values voter summit. >> mike pence has had a busy day. it started here at the values voter summit where he came out very strong against abortion. he said it will send roe v. wade to the ash heap of history. and then in virginia where he took on one of the issues that

has been dogging trump the most, his praise of russian president putin. saying his comments were not an endorsement of putin but an indictment of president obama. >> donald trump and i said the small and bullying president of russia was a strong leader on the world stage. that wasn't an endorsement of vladimir putin. that was an indictment of the weak and feckless leadership of this president and your running mate. >> as for trump, he spent the day in st. louis attending the funeral of conservative icon phyllis shapley. deplorables is one of the top trends on twitter. saying clinton just made the worst mistake of the entire political season and that for the first time in a long time her true feelings came out showing bigotry and hatred for millions of americas.

how can she be president of our country when she has such contempt and disdain for so many great americans. at the same type, many of trump's surrogates are now coming out and saying this is clinton's 47% moment, a reference to what mitt romney said in 2012, remember, he said that no matter what, 47% of american voters will not be voting for him because they are too reliant or depend on government handouts. a lot of people inside the trump campaign believe or at least are hoping that clinton's comment will be just as damaging. arthel. >> okay, we'll keep an eye on it. thank you. >> on the democratic side, hillary clinton walking back some of those comments, about donald trump supporters, that has a lot of those supporters hopping mad. mrs. clinton saying half of mr. trump's support could be grouped in that, quote, basket deplorable. there she is on camera. this happened during a fund-raiser last night. in the wake of the firestorm, what she said there, mrs. clinton is now saying she

regrets some of what she said. more details on that. >> hillary clinton issued the following, walking back, can't necessarily call it a full-blown apology, after she said half of trump supporters belong in a quote, basket of deplorables. last night i was grossly general ralistic and that's never a good idea. i regret saying half, that was wrong. i won't stop calling out bigotry and racist rhetoric in this campaign. as i said, many of trump's supporters are hard-working americans who just don't feel like the economy or our political system are working for them. clinton made the controversial comments at a fund-raising event here in new york city last night. she said half of trump supporters legitimately feel like the government and the economy have left them down and they're desperate for change. but listen to how she describes the other half of trump

supporters. >> to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. right? the racist, sexist, homophobic, zenophob zenophobic, islamaphobic, you name it. >> she also said unredeemable and not american. tim kaine told "the post" earlier today he did not believe clinton needed to apologize for her comments, saying, quote, she was generalizing and saying they're motivated by dark not itches but there are other supporters that have legitimate concerns and questions about the economy and we've got to speak to them and the campaign and even to the extent that they vote against us, we still have to respond to their concerns if we have the opportunity to

govern. important to note, this isn't the first time she's referenced some trump supporters as the deplore be deplorab deplorables. politico reports she's been saying this line behind closed doors for weeks. erik. >> all right, bring byabryan, w how the trump supporters react. a breakthrough in the search for peace in syria it the u.s. and russia reaching a cease-fire deal after marathon negotiations in geneva between secretary of state john kerry and his russian counterpart. now, it comes amid reports of deadly air strikes around the city of aleppo that syrian opposition activists say killed at least 45 people. the cease-fire is supposed to take effect tomorrow night but after all this, the question is, will it hold. the plan also calls for the u.s. and russia to cooperate in the fight against isis as well as al qaeda's affiliate in syria.

mean wwhilemeanwhile, north slamming the u.s. for its criticism of its latest nuclear test. that has caused the united nations security council to begin immediately working on new sanctions. you just saw u.n. ambassador samantha power there. state media accuses of us, quote, nuclear blackmail against their nation. we will talk to an international security expert about these calculating threat from the regime and those intercontinental missiles, the development that some experts contend could actually, in a few years, hit most of our country. >> meanwhile, a surprise victory for a native american tribe protesting a pipeline project in north dakota. the tribe claiming the pipeline would pass through sacred tribal sites and pollute water. the federal government saying just minutes later that it would

voluntarily stop work on part of the pipeline. will carr is live from our los angeles bureau. where do things stand? >> arthel, that surprise victory caught everybody off guard including the tribe who called it a game changer. everything played out on friday afternoon when a federal judge ruled that the controversial project could move forward but then the army and the departments of justice and the interior suspended construction on part of the pipeline while they reconsider the project. the tribe says its voice has been heard after thousands showed up to protest. just last week, protesters clashed with construction crews and private security. we have audio of that interaction caught on a cell phone video. take a listen.

>> packing up and leaving -- >> the tribe and environmentalists both admit that the pipeline does not cross indian land but they say it will destroy ancient burial sites and pollute the nearby missouri river. both are vowing to stop the construction on the pipeline. attorney for the tribe says recent activity at the construction site -- take a listen. >> we provided evidence on friday of sacred sites that were directly in the pipeline's route. by saturday morning, those sites have been destroyed. >> the oil company has not responded to our inquiries and previously said the pipeline will create job, pump millions into local economies and provide a safe reliable way to transport oil across the region. >> as the american consumer's

benefit from reliable energy, we also create hundreds of thousands of jobs in the united states. we do make us secure as a nation. >> the government has asked the company to voluntarily stop construction on parts of the project. it's unclear if that will happen, erik. >> okay, thank you. a sorrowful day for all of us. the 15th anniversary of 9/11. radical islamic terrorists of al qaeda struck at the heart of our country, new york city, washington and on united flight 93. a special program taking place today where that plane crashed in shanksville, pennsylvania, for those brave men and women on board that flight who fought back against the terrorists. 40 candle lanterns will be placed at the wall of names and tomorrow 41 trees there will be blessed at the nearby flight 93

memorial chapel. one tree each for each passenger and crew member including one passenger's unborn baby. this person recently visited the memorial. an incredible emotional piece. she got a firsthand look at how the national park service is preserving this hallowed ground for future generations. >> you probably have younger people come. how do you help them understand the importance of the site and the historical significance of it? >> i hope to plant a seed because one day i say i won't be here to tell the story and hopefully one day one of them will be because it's a story that has to be told. >> here at the fox news channel we will again be giving you a complete breakdown of those events that we all remember from that fateful day. fox news reporting time line of terror tells the story of 9/11 in real time as it happened using recordings and cell phone calls as they came in. survivors and rescuers also tell how their lives are forever

changed. that will be tomorrow night here on the fox news channel at 9 p.m. reports of multiple tornadoes barreling through illinois and an update on the emergency response and the extent of the daniel there. >> the battle over those sanctuary cities only getting larger. how one police officer in louisiana, well, he's fighting back against the sanctuary cities and he's taking on the justice department by himself. also, donald trump makes a highly anticipated address at the value voters summit. we're going to look at his pitch to evangelical voters and whether or not it will work. that's ahead. a trump administration will be cherished, protected, defended, like you've never seen before. ugh. heartburn.

sorry ma'am. no burning here. try new alka-seltzer heartburn relief gummies. they don't taste chalky and work fast. mmmm. incredible. can i try? she doesn't have heartburn. new alka seltzer heartburn relief gummies. enjoy the relief.

let's get comfortable with our food again. time now for a quick check of the headlines. new video coming into fox news of a tornado near sydney, illinois. a total of four twisters have touched down in the space. the man who shot president reagan leaving a mental hospital today. more than 35 years after that

horrible event. a federal judge ruling that now 61-year-old john hicnckley is n longer a danger to the public. he plans to live with his 90-year-old mother. he'll have a work requirement and restrictions on travel. a judge ruling in new jersey that the governor chris christie must turn over his private e-mails. the e-mails related to the federal case stem from the 2013 lane closures on the george washington bridge. christie has long denied he had anything to do with that. well, donald trump addressing the value voter summit. delivering a speech crafted for his evangelical audience. touching on many of their most cherished issues, including repealing the 1954 johnson amendment which is a prohibition on tax exempt religious groups engaging in politicians. >> if they want to talk about

politics, they're unable to do so. if they want to do it, they take a tremendous risk that they lose their tax exempt status. all religious leaders should be able to freely express their thoughts and feelings on religious matters. and i will repeal the johnson amendment if i am elected your president. i promise. >> all right, let's talk about this now with the columnist for the national review online, so john, first, is mr. trump on to something here or might some point out that, hey, listen, politicians visit churches already all the time to gain votes of the congregation. mr. trump, as we know, was last week at great faith ministries in detroit. democrats do it all the time. so how much of a gain would the repeal of the johnson amendment be for churches? >> it's a lot like the fairness

doctrine used to be with television stations. it was never enforced but it still cast a pall over everything so nervous program directors didn't use to cover controversial issues. the same here, there's some pastors who won't discuss politics just because they're 1 in 1,000 chance the irs will knock on their door. >> they rarely, rarely audit -- >> but you're still scared of them. >> oh, of course. why is it a hot button? >> this is precisely tailored to his audience. this is something they care about but it's not real known to the general public so it's a perfect issue to appeal to them. >> will it work? >> i think evangelical voters are the surprise thing among donald trump supporters. this is a guy from new york who admitted many socially liberal views for many years including on abortion, changed his mind, and what's really working for him, is in that audience, redemption is a big deal.

they've obviously decided that donald trump has redeemed himself on these issues. >> he also spoke about school choice to that audience. let's listen. >> school choice is at the center of the civil rights agenda. and my goal is to provide every single inner city child in america that is trapped in a failing government school the freedom to attend the school of their choice. competition. the schools will get better and better and better. >> civil rights issue. so who is mr. trump talking to here? >> well, he's trying to appeal to minority parents. he'll trying to appeal to white suburbanites who is worried donald trump makes them uncomfortable that he doesn't have a lot of minority supporters at his rallies. this is an attempt to paint himself more moderate, more all encompassing diversity tones. >> once again, people will point out the venue.

probably wouldn't have much diversity in that audience. >> he did the same thing in detroit though. to be fair, i think this is an issue where hillary clinton is vulnerable. hillary clinton frankly is in the pocket of the teachers unions. they don't like school choice. he's talking about it in a lot of terms people agree with. we fought to have the right to vote. we now have the right to have a good school, even if you don't live in the right zip code. >> we are in the 59-day homestretch. hold on. >> i'm tired, i'm tired. >> we still have time to go. of course this is an effort for donald trump to broaden his base. to get as many voters as he can. can he get this done in 59 days? >> i don't think he's broadening his base so much as i think he has to go to republicans, independents, who don't like hillary clinton and say i'm an acceptable choice. i'm not the kind of, you know, mad guy that you see on

television. i can be reasonable. that's why the debates are so important for him. hillary clinton is very unpopular and donald trump is very unpopular. if it's a referendum on hillary clint clinton, trump has a good chance of winning. if it's a referendum on trump and his temperament, he's in trouble. >> well, she's not -- >> she has basically latched herself to president obama and said i'm going to continue his policies. find me a area of difference where hillary clinton says i'm going to do something different than barack obama, there isn't much. >> we don't have a clinton surrogate here to answer that so -- >> they wouldn't have much of an answer. >> you mentioned the debate and they mentioned that donald trump is trying to appeal in some way to those folks and let them know, listen, i'm not the crazy guy you always see on tv who might just blurt out what have you. we do see in more controlled settings, more controlled tones, when he's on the tell prompter. what happened in this debate

when there is no teleprompter? >> well, depends on how much debate practice he wants to submit himself too. he's not been very good at that. i think if you look at his issue with matt lauer, he gave lots of jen ra generali generalities. her problem was that she had to explain the e-mails and she looked evasive, she looked like she didn't want to talk about things directly. if she doesn't engage in specifics, he doesn't engage in specifics because he hasn't studied the issues. they're evenly matched in some respect. >> well, we will be watching. i think the world will be watching. lots of people who normally wouldn't be watching. >> this will have an enormous audience. the nbc thing this week had 15 million. the debates will have 115 million. >> all right, rest up, john, see you soon. we have some sad news to tell you about. greta zimmer freeman, the nurse in the iconic photo of the kiss

at the end of world war ii, she has passed away. one of the most famous images of the 20th century. taken on august 15th, 1945, showing the young greta getting a kiss from an sailor as the streets were filled with people celebrating the surrender of japan. it was published in "life" magazine. her son said she died thursday in virginia. she had been suffering from a number of ailments. greta zimmer-friedman was 92. the u.s./russia-backed cease-fire. calling for them to cooperate in the fight against isis as well as the affiliate in syria but the question remains will russia actually follow through. >> and speaking of russia and foreign policy and hillary clinton and donald trump and vladimir putin, both mr. trump and mrs. clinton hope to poiain

each other as unqualified when it comes to foreign policy. next, we'll look at what they say and a lack at vaook at vlad putin. and what it means for u.s. diplomacy. >> every day that goes by, this just becomes more and more of a reality television show. it's not a serious presidential campaign.

i've been taking fish oil from nature's bounty to support my heart. eating better, keeping healthy. so that no matter what happens in the future, my "future self" will thank me. thank you! 45 years of experience has taught us: no matter what the future holds, you're always better off healthy. nature's bounty

the u.s. and russia hammering out a deal that could bring an end to the syria civil war. secretary of state john kerry and his russian counterpart reaching agreement that would allow military coordination between the two countries. it also calls for a nationwide truce. but within hours of that deal, at least 45 people from intense air strikes were killed on rebel held parts of aleppo. john huddy has more from our

middle east bureau. >> it's been called a possible breakthrough. a new cease-fire agreement to stop the vicious and brutal fighting in syria. it may come down to once again whether or not syria's government and opposition forces are willing to hold their fire. that said, secretary of state john kerry and russian foreign minister sergey lavrov announced the agreement early saturday. it will begin with a cease-fire to start at sundown monday. >> this requires halting all attacks including aerial bombardments. it requires uninpeted and sustained access to all of the besieged and the hard to reach areas, including aleppo.

the usa and russia would begin a joint operation combating isis and the al qaeda affiliate in syria jabbat al asa, formerly known as the nusra front. confusion of opposition groups that were part of a deal and extremist groups that were not still being attacked. >> ts the distinguishing between terrorist and moderate opposition has been written as a priority into the document that we agree today. let me be clear, out of this complexity there's a simple choice between war and peace. >> still, some concerns about the u.s. sharing information with russia and then there are those who doubt the agreement will even hold as fighting continued again today in syria.

arthel. >> john huddy, thank you. hillary clinton and donald trump clashing over russia. mr. trump seeming continued ed admiration for putin. >> it is beyond imagination, praising a russian autocrat like vladimir putin and throwing his lot in with him in the way that he has approved of his wish list and not even understanding what he has done. >> she talks about me. and putin likes trump. you know what, he's been nice to

me. if he's nice to me, that's fine. not going to make a bit of difference if we don't get great deals for our country. nothing matters to me. it's all about getting great deals. >> so trump and putin what is the impact of this ongoing controversy? david jacobson, democratic trat gist and partner at j & z strategies. david, let me start with you. it just boggles the mind top people that he would praise the russian strongman who defies every tenet of american democracy is our values and what we stand for. do you think mr. trump is conflating as mrs. clinton says the powers of an autocrat with a true democratic leader? >> the reality is vladimir putin is a thug, a gangster, a dictator. this is a guy whose extraordinarily unpopular in america. in fact, i think his popularity ratings, his favorable ratings,

are in the single digits. donald trump has to do better than mitt romney. hillary clinton would win if the election were held today. the reality is, this doesn't help him break through this ceiling. how does it help him with the swing voters? >> what do you think the calculus is? is there one? >> the national news media, the mainstream media and the political left, they want to make this all about putin and not obama. the primary thing trump has said is putin has said putin has been a much stronger leader than obama. the media does not want to bring attention to the fact obama is a weak leader and the world is far less safe so they make it all about putin. he is a stronger leader than obama. >> it's apples and oranges. the president of the united states is duly elected in a diplomatic republican. >> it's not about that, erik.

>> -- former kgb operator -- >> it's not about who, it's about what, it's about leadership. trump is selling a vision of leadership for america. barack obama has destabilized the middle east by doing deals with iran america should never have done. >> what about that? >> well, the reality is barack obama and hillary clinton took out osama bin laden, right, it was during the last republican administration, we're about to celebrate the 15th anniversary of 9/11 tomorrow. it was under president george w. bush we had 9/11. it was under -- >> oh, my gosh, are you kidding me? you're going back and blaming bush for 9/11? >> this is ridiculous. >> -- terrible dictator, but the reality, we wouldn't have had isis, had bush not gone into iraq. >> others say we wouldn't have had isis if the president didn't pull out the troops and got the

force agreement. all right, go ahead. >> look, that was the deal -- >> mark. >> -- iraq, was a deal that was made by george bush before he left office. >> erik. >> go ahead. >> we're on the eve of 9/11 and democrats are still sitting there blaming george bush. give me a break. the reality is america has been in retreat under the policies of obama and clinton and most americans believe we are less safe because of it. in the fox news poll, 80% of voters, 80% said it was somewhat, at least somewhat likely, that a terrorist attack will occur on our soil, killing many americans. why is that? because voters feel less safe because of obama and clinton policyings. they destabilized the middle east. they put israel at risk. look what's happening now with iran and this deal in syria. this won't last. unfortunately, it won't last for the people of aleppo and syria

it won't last, like the deal they cut in the spring, because people do not fear barack obama. they will fear america and america's military might under strong leadership like from president trump. >> your respond on behalf of mrs. clinton's view? >> look, when it comes to instability around the globe, if you look at donald trump's record and what he said throughout this campaign, this is a candidate who said we need more nukes around the world. we need to give korea, saudi arabia, japan, nukes. we need to extract our support from nato. that's a recipe for disaster if you talk about security for america, instability across the globe. i think hillary clinton will have a clear leg up on those issues in the debates. >> what should we do? david, let me just continue that point. you know, putin is threatening the bualkans. as you said, trump has expressed concern for weakening nato in

this sort of thing so what do we do? >> i think we need more collaboration. we need to really integrate and sort of revamp nato. we need to invest more, not less. i think that's the clear sort of stark difference between hillary clinton's approach of really, you know, joining forces with our allies, not alienating them. donald trump has alienated mexico. he's alienated japan. president nieto stood next to donald trump days ago, he stood next to him at a press conference, how bad can he be? then they were it's tooing on twitter where you have the president of mexico saying that donald trump, you know, had a conversation about building the wall and then you have donald trump denying it. >> all right, he's going to have the last word. they did have that meeting, mark, that is a good point. >> look, erik, this is a change election and hillary clinton is offering warmed-over hash from barack obama. on foreign policy, on economic

policy. the polls are shifting. a completely new race. trump is offering a vision of leadership on the economy by cutting taxes and on foreign policy with strength by building up our military and taking on leaders le putin from a leadership standpoint, from a strength standpoint. hillary clinton is part of a failed policy with barack obama. it shows across the world. it shows with instability. it shows with less feeling of safety on the part of americans. >> ran the clock out on that. that's the argument. we got 60 days. just laid out the case for the american people. >> okay, do you like a sale? do you like a sale, erik? >> yeah, who doesn't. >> some major retailers are trying to ditch the heavy discounts and the perception that their items are almost always on sale. what would that mean for you the shopper as well as the economy as a whole? >> do you know that north korea experts think could put a nuclear warhead on an

intercontinental missile and hit us in as little as four years. a strike they predict can reach chicago and even hit washington, d.c. so what do we do? how do we stop them? we'll give you some answers next. if you have a typical airline credit card, you only earn double miles when you buy stuff from that airline. wait...is this where you typically shop? you should be getting double miles on every purchase! switch...to the capital one venture card. with venture, you earn unlimited double miles on every purchase, everywhere, every day. not just ...(dismissively) airline purchases. seriously... double miles... everywhere. what's in your wallet? who don't have access thto basic banking,on people but that is changing. at temenos, with the microsoft cloud, we can enable a banker to travel to the most remote locations with nothing but a phone and a tablet. everywhere where there's a phone, you have a bank.

north korea's latest nuclear test being condemned at the united nations and the world capitals. the nation claims it can make warheads small enough to fit on an intercontinental missile. even china publicly denouncing the latest explosion. but so far, there are no signs kim jong-un's regime will stop. how can we deter a nuclear north? joining us now is jim walsh, international security expert with m.i.t. security studies program. jim, calls for new sanctions, tighter sanctions, but the sanctions so far in the oil for food deals, you know, they've done zippo to stop their

program. >> i agree with that, erik. in this report we put out that "the wall street journal" highlighted, in some cases, the sanctions actually improve their, ironically, counterintuitively, improved their ability to procure wmd. what a difference a week makes. you and i spoke a week ago, you know, exactly at this time and now -- and we talked about the prospect of a test and now we have a test. >> you point out "the wall street journal" report, they say in the report today that, you know, there's a big huge gaping china loophole because they're not stopping all that trade with in north korea and if they just pull the plug on that, they can cut this stuff off now. >> in today's "wall street journal," they reference for example cutting off oil supplies. china isn't going to do that. it's not going to do that out of self-interest because as much as it hates north korea's nuclear weapons, it fears the prospect

of a collapsed north korea, a failed nuclear weapon state on its border, even more. we're going to practice that, we have to be smart about it. i think we have to get china and the u.s. on the same page where there's common interest. where is there common interest? going after the private chinese businesses that are helping north korea acquire nuclear missile technology. not necessarily causing the collapse of north korea by cutting off oil but going after those middle men who help them procure nuclear technology. the test is obviously bad news. if there's any good news it creates a moment where maybe we can get a reset here. >> let's hope there can be some reset because you got the experts saying within four years, byear s years, by the year 2020, there will be a nuclear missile armed warhead on a north korea missile

that can hit chicago, washington, d.c. they say there's going to be 100 warheads. this comes from the pentagon. that predicts that north korea can hit most of the united states. they have this smaller musadon missile that is on a launch ramp that they can hide that are harder for us to launch our missiles to blow them up before they leave the launch pad. >> yeah, a mobile launcher. >> so what dough wiwe do about ? >> i have a different estimate. i think it's going to take longer to build an intercontinental ballistic missile which is what we're talking about, but make no mistake, erik, you know, in the near term we have 20,000 u.s. forces, american, in south korea south kor and we have thousands of american forces in japan, and those folks are at risk right now, so if this isn't something that are four or eight years down the road, it's a thing we have to deal with right away. i'm just worried about our american servicemen in japan as

i am about anything else so this is a high priority. >> 28,500 of our troops right now in south korea. potentially, what would happen if this all goes to hell? >> first of all, i don't think, by the way, there's danger here, but help sort of separate out what the dangers are. i don't think north korea's going to intentionally start a war, intentionally launch a nuclear weapon, because that's suicide. they know it's suicide. and the one thing that kim cares about more than anything else, it's holding on to power. so they're not going to cut their throats. and if they were going to do that, they haven't -- you know, they've shown no sign of that. but, erik, that doesn't mean there's not a problem here. deterrence works so far, but if there's a mistake, a miscalculation, a little thing that begins to escalate and both sides start responding and lose control of events, that would be a real danger, so we can't ignore that. >> yes, certainly hope that does

not happen, and i'm glad you have a longer time frame than four years but it is a threat, a danger. jim walsh. thank you. we will be right back.

the days of dope discounts could be in the rearview mirror. retailers are looking for a way to cash in on better economic times. that could be weaning customers off of the coveted deals. mickey, good to see you. >> good afternoon. >> we know retailers are doing this to improve their bottom line and how are they going to make this happen? >> it is going to be difficult to get the american shopper to come back in the stores once they don't have big sales anymore. we got addicted to the sales since the great recession. and of course, they had small margins because of the sales and now they are going to have to get people to stop that mind set of missing the labor day sale, i will wait for the post labor day sale.

>> i know that dfw told investors that it is moving away from store wide sales wide and opting for a targeted event like a sandal event; is that going to work? >> my personal opinion is it will not work. a targeted sale is something to get you in the store. it is working to some extent with higher end retailers and investors reward their stocks because of that. they need to expand their margin and means more sales number and more profit. >> i want to get your explanation why. so stand by for me on that answer. bottom line, i want to talk about the over all economy. could this stunt the growth of the economy. i will keep my money in my pocket? >> i think i will see lower year

command a higher price because that is where the disparity in wage growth occurs. >> all right. miky. >> just a programming note. we'll be with you. tomorrow. >> and eastern time. julie banderas is back in the is a little and up next with a fox report. thank you for are joining us. that's awesome. plus you get a free carfax® report. start your search at carfax.com!
