us by phone today. sounds like you're ready to tee off on ben carson tonight. >> no, not at all. we'll see what happens. it'll be loose and flexiblele. i have no idea what's going too happen but it will be interesting. as we've seen in tom's piece right there, some of -- parts of carson story are starting to check out. when i talked to him on sunday he said you jumped the gun on those stories and that calal into questionn whetherou're fit to be mmander in chief. if he repeats that tonight h h will yourespond? >> well, i'll just simply say and mean it to the bottom, you know, the case was made that he went after his mother with a hammer and he wanted to hit his mother over the head with a hammer, that he stabbed sobody, that he had hit lock. he smashed somebody's face with a lockck, wh a padlock and other thgs and i i'm saying -- he's trying to justify this because he wants to be telling the truth and he's trying to justify it and then he saide's pathological. he has a pathological temper or something and he wrote that himself in the book and, you

know, i'm trying to figure what's going on ovever here. you hit sebody in t face with a lock and go after your mother with a hammer, you do all of these things and you're trying to justify that, yes, you did t them and that's suppose to make you credible. >> we heard the word -- >> it's a very stranange situation. >> heard the word hammer several times in your answer. want to ask you about an abc news poll. you and ben carson at the top of most polls rightow and both doing quiteteell with repububcan voters, high favorability but when it goes to the general election voters, h he's doing. better than you. he's got a 50% favorability. you're only at 38% and 59% unfavorable for you. how do you explain that and anything you can do about it? >> well, sure, you do a lot about it once you tart running and focusingg on that. zogby came out with a poll where i'm at 30 to 12727 againsten and i beat hillary head-to-head in numerous pollslsut that's aa different g gup of folks. right now'm dealing with republicans. >> you're also dealing with china in an op-ed in "the wall street journal" today you&say it's time to tellhe truth on

china but criticsay the policies you're calling for will spark a trade war that will babackfire on the united states. how do you respond. >> what's aradewar? we're losing $400 billion a yeaear with china in terms of imbalance. they're killing us and in every respect and their currency manipulators are beaeang us with their currency manipulation and her things soso when you say trade war they've got a trade war against us. they biat us at every front. we have people literally that have no clu and if you look at what china is doing step by step by step, i mean, trade war, sure, you won't even have a trade war. china hasas taken so much money out ofhe united states, so many jobs, so much of our base that trade war, i don't think you'll have one, frankly, becausus they can afford a trade wawa >> we saw last week unemployment down to 5%. federal reserve almost certain to raise rates. is that the right move? >> it is the right move but the unemployment is not 5%.

the unemployment is probably close to 20%. if youook at all the people out there that want to get jobs that have given up you're talking about unemployment that's actually close to 20%. the world is not happy. you know, you talked about my big crowd at the arena last ninit. it wasas- in illilinois, it t s unbelievable. believe me,f rl unemplment was at 5% i wouldn't have had 10,000 people at that are last night. >> who else is in the hot seat tonight? >> i think everybody. i mean, look, it's a contest. it's a very interestingng set of characters. everybody has a veryy dferent point of view and i think it's going to be an interesting time tonight. i look forward to it. >> we do too. thanks for joining us this morning? thank you very much, george. . >> let's talk to matt dowd about this. how do you explain th, donald trump, ben carson holdingn strong at theop of the polls.s. anythi can bng them down. >> i think what explains their strength their authenticity so who they are, they seem genuine and their stories and all that. in the end that's what could bring them down if it bears out

stand forrant authentic the cracks would dg them down immediately. the other thing i think they'll have to prove tonight especially is that people can see them as commander in chief. there is a question about whether the voterss can see them as commander in chief. >> will they get pressed foror details on their policy. whatre you watching for. >> subplots. will jeb go after marco rubio in the course of this? will donald trump and ben carson engage in the midst of this and i think ted cruz is in an interesting position because i don't think he has an opportunity to bash the refs so what will he do. >> some talk of ted cruz and jeb bushdouble-teaming marco rubio. >> i think it would be a mistake by them to go after marcoco rubi marco rubio is a young guy withh a great story. ii thinkhey're better off letting the moderators doing the work instead of them doing it. >> let's see what happens. matthehew dowd,hanks for being here. later i'll head to washington for an exclusive interview with president obama. we'll bring that to you friday right here on "gma." robin.

an important new study on blood pressure that can save lives affecting at least 17 million americans. abc's dr. richard besser is here and these are dramatitic findings, rich. >> really dramatic. the big question for people witit high blood pressure has aays been i i you treat it how low do u go? people at high risk for heart geez was 140 or0 for t that top number. what they wanted to see here is what happens if you bring that all the way down to 120. so the researchers did astudy, half t the peoplple went for the current target of 140, half at 120 and studied 9,000 people. all over 50, no diabetes and disease. they had to stop the study early because there was a 25% reductctn in bad outcomes like heart attack, stroke or deaths from heart disease in lowering it by 20 points, medication is what led to that reduction. >> exactly. >> side effects, you know, when you talk about medication, is the 20-point difference worth the side effects.

get it down that low on average people had to be on three medications to get it to the 140 it was two medications and there wa a slight increase in er visits for a number of things for low blood pressure, for fainting though there was no difference in falls and kidney trade-off there. recommendations. >> there are7 million people who may benefit from that. a lot of ople. talk to you doctor to see if the benefits outweigh the risks but there are so many things people can do to bring down medication. so maintaining their weight. regular physical activity. sleep. processed foods. those things could take care of some o of t ts or make it easier to control. all of this is encocoaging, thanan you very much. dr. besser will be taking your morning. you can tweet him @ @drrichardbesser. snow, hail rain and it's moving east a and ginger, so many

are on the lookout for a blizzard. >> so many. you've got to see the numbers. first, san francisco, california, picture of the thunderstorms that rolled through the bae. that is the golden gate bridge getting struck by lightning. yoyo move to nevada where it came as heavy snow and this same storm now digging into the west with winter weather advisories from nevada up to montana into colorado and utah. look at thal blizzard warning and watch, northeast colorado, western kansas and nebraska, that means wind, plus snow. it doesn't necessarily mean you get tons and tons of snow but does mean really bad travel conditions and out front, potential for tornadoes, damaging wind and, of course, that large hail. des moines to peoria backk to st. louis. . more on this coming up. fofonow backo robin. >> amy has the morning's other top stories beginning with big news, the university of missouri. that's right. the school football team there will resume practice after the school's president resigned amid growing racial tension and the chancellor says hwill step

you said you did not want the focus to be your hunger strike, that that was not the focus, that it was about the cause, but many people want to know how are you doing, jonathan? how is your health? you went seven days without eati. >> first of al robin, thank you for having me and thank you for having us, i brought the members of concerned students 1950. the original organizing group. and, yeah, i really didn't want this to be about the hunger trike. although it was unfortunate that had to come to such a drastic measure. the real issue is the campus climate and all the issues that our students are facing. in terms of me healthwise, i'm smiling. i got my friends with me so i'm so appreciative ofthem. they've been such a great support network and definitely after the hospipil visit i got checked t so i'm doing ll. >> i'm glad that you are doing well. youu talk about the measureres that you took and that you called the conditions there on campus the words you used was unlivable.

were talking about? >> yeah, the campu climate here at the university of missouri has been unlivable since i was here as an undergraduate student so started here in 2008. and in my first semester i had individuals write t "n" word on my wall and had white students who wer literally physically assaulting me. the campusulture here is not welcomin t people who are of the majority identity. >> and what do you think of the measures that the universy say they are now going to take? they're going to establish a chief diversity officer, they're going to review their policies. is that enough? >> honestly, i am slightly disappnted with the measures. i wawa definitely expecting more. i say that one because all those measures have been outlined by faculty, students and staff who have been doing activism on campus for years and so these are things we've been suggesting so i was looking for something a little bit more new and more innovative and also more substantial. i do acknowledge it's a sp in

we need to know these aren't just proses or words to calm us down as students but really true changes to happen on this campus. >> i know you don't want this too be symbolic.. you don't want 9 hunger strike or the president stepping down to be symbolic but further measures. what exactly is it that you are looking for and your classmates? >> for me i'm looking for respect. there's a lot of things i'm looking for but when you look at the values of the university, you respect responsibility, discovering excellence, the fact that we can have different differing identities background, lifestyles et cetera is okay. we're not expecting everyone to 100% agree with what we're doing or 100% agree with o o liststyle but demand they respect our differerences a our differences in humanity. >> jonaan, the entire footbalall united. they said they were one with you and this cause. what did that mean to you? >> that honestly mea the world to me so it wa powowerful for them to use their mlionsof

social change. >> the team and coaches said they wereeoncerned about you andd that's what their focus was and makingure that you were going to be okay. have you heard from other students on oer campuses? >> absolute. the outpour for concerned amazing. so many campuses are facing so many similar things and so i think it's reay powerful to continue to fight for change. >> you have received, you and others there overwhelming support b there are others that are saying, h hunger strikik forcing a resignation, is thaha the best w way to bring about change, jonathan? some people are asking that. >> i would refrain the question in instances like ask yourself why did we haveo get to that place? i think that's the most important question to ask. if people did their research they would understand that for yearspon years we've been writing letters. we've tried almost every method of communication and we're not being heard. > it's important for meme to know, i know this has been going

the measures you took before this took place. jonathan butler, thank you very much and a all the sdents that are joinining you there onhe campus at mizzou. we wish everyon there all the best going forward. thank you. >> thank you so much, robin. >> and the president when he resigned president wolfe said he was resigning out of love, not hate and that he was hoping that this -- that theealing process could begin there at mizzou. >> we hope we can see real change. he set a powerful e emple that ststent. this boxfheerios may be onon your table right now. but this morning one group is saying its name is misleading. we'll tell you why. to do great thingsgs, metimes you gotta break the rules. surface pro 4. a new screen for new perspectives. a new pen for new sterpieces. new speakers for a new sound. we reinvented the rface pro.
