7:14 am
drip, drip, drip, fight for control of information. and ultimately, it looks like they're hiding something which is never good. >> mark, how much are voters supposed to know about a candidate's health issue? if she thinks she can power through, what's wrong with her thinking i'll get through this? are we supposed to know everything about the candidate? >> well look, there's not a rule book. but this is a tension that the clinton especiall hillary clinton used the phrase zone of privacy that everyone is entitled to in private life. this goes back 20 years. it's been conscious and tenuous. >> the white house president secretary said yesterday, quote, there's a reason we have had a long tradition in this country of individual candidates disclosing information about her health. we are electing someone to the

that pneumonia. in a telephone interview, clinton was asked why she waited two days until she got overheated at a 9/11 ceremony on sunday to reveal the diagnosis. >> well, i just didn't think it was going to be that big a deal. it's just the kind of thing that if it happens to you and you're a busy active person, you keep moving forward. >> bill clinton will step in for some of his wife's campaign charlie spoke with the former president ahead of his final clinton global initiative conference. he asked about the appearance of conflicts of interest between the clinton foundation and the state department while his wife was secretary of state. >> i've bent over backwards to try to make sure that there was no conflict of interest or appearance of conflict of interest. we reached an agreement with the white house before hillary became secretary of state about
8:03 am
handled and how the foundation would be run. and i've been working for almost a year now trying to determine what more we need to do. i said the other day if she wins, i'll resign from the foundation board and i won't raise any money. we won't take any foreign money, nor will we take any american corporate money. >> i know you have said that. but some people say then why not do it now. yp simp y not just simply if she's president. >> because there is nothing wrong with what we're doing and i have to wind it down. because it takes time to undo this. we have a lot of lives on the line. >> i think people recognize the clinton foundation has done lot of good work. an has spent millions of dollars. number two, they recognize that --
8:04 am
>> i'm talking about the american public. they also recognize that the clinton global initiative has been a gathering to talk about how to solve problems. that is a very different issue, those two things. you can recognize that and still say where there have been instances here min which people have said we'd like to be at a meeting. we'd like to be -- we'd like to have a meeting with the secretary of state. has that happened? >> well, you know e-mails what happened and i think you know what the state department said. there were two instances i read about, one of which person didn't get what they wanted and the other which the request had gone through ordinary state department channels anyway. that's what i read about. and that can't happen anymore. >> do you believe and understand for some people the optics
8:05 am
>> all i know is what i read in the paper. the papers indicated that there was a presumption of suspicion if hillary gave a meeting without even bothering to call to find out the facts. mohammad eunice won the nobel prize. >> but business people who simpte with the clintons. >> and what happened? >> did none get an opportunity to participate in a meeting or meet with -- >> first of all, meetings are set up all the time. members of congress do that all the time. s members of the white house have done that allel ti the tim. but the state department has offered proof that nobody was ever done because they were a contributor to the foundation. nothing.
8:06 am
might have taken place with -- in fact with the foundation any access to the secretary of st state, there is nothing to apologize for, nothing happened and we have been as transparent as we smhould and can. >> i believe first of all we have been as transparent as we can be an we've been more transparent than any other foundation. more transparent than any other foundation has ever been asked to be and certainly more transparent than anybody else in this line of work is. i have said that to the best of my knowledge, nobody ever got anything from the state department because they supported the clinton foundation. if they did and it was inappropriate, i would say that was wrong, too. i have proved that i'm not averse to apologizing for things that i think were wrong. >> and in the next half hour, rm former president talks to
8:07 am
the white house. it always seems to boil down to the optics. >> it does. this was a really strong interview between the two of them back and forth. i think it's interesting that the former president has said previously that he would step down and charlie saying why not now stop raising money to prevent any, you know, appearance. >> optics. >> but that they would like chelsea to continue in that role to lead the foundation and the good work that they do. donald trump meanwhile says what she said about his voters. clinton said on friday and i quote, to just be grossly generalis ti is generalissic, you can put half of donald trump's supporters into the baskets of deplorables. >> the disdain she expressed disqualifies her from public service. >> during the campaign, trump made his own controversial
8:08 am
>> m >> mexico is bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists. >> what does the mexican heritage of the judge in the rump university case have to do with anything is it about. >> i think it has a lot do with it. i've had terrible rulings forever. >> for him, how is his mexican parents have to do -- >> he's a member of a club or society very strongly pro mexican which is all fine. but i say he has bias. i want to build a wall. donald j. trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the united states. how stupid are the people of iowa how stupid are the people of the country to believe this crap? >> trump campaigns today in iowa and pennsylvania. one of the nation's sharpest political observers says that hillary clinton's health

? as we reported earlier, the national collegiate athletic association is pulling seven championship events from the state of north carolina over the the ncaa joins dozens of high-profile companies, ceos, entertainers, universities state and cities that have spoken out against the law known as hb2. in fact, the nba with drew its all-star game from charlotte over the term.
8:15 am
mark eckert is in studio 57 in an interview you'll see only on "cbs this morning." mark, we welcome to you the table. >> thank you. >> this is a very big decision. take us through the process to reach it. >> this was a decision reached when the state of north carolina passed hb2. we have a board of governors made up of 16 presidents during that time frame. there was hope this could be resolved during the during the legislative session, perhaps this fall, through the court system. none of those things came to pass. in order to try to relocate and move them to places where our students could get a high-quality experience, we had to make a decision right away. >> but the nuts and bolts on why you actually decided to pull the plug on it? >> oh, sure. this is an issue, you know, college sports is conducted
8:16 am
context. these are student fairness and inclusion are right at the heart of what the ncaa does and what universities do. and so, for our university presidents, this was a proverbial no-brainer. >> did you speak to north carolina's governor about this? >> i'd spoken to him in the spring about it. he'd expressed a lot of views about it throughout the process. but i hadn't spoken to him -- >> they didn't lobby to keep the championships in north carolina? >> we had a process by which all the individual bidders were able could do around this. in the end, the board realized with this law in place they couldn't be there. >> a spokesman called it almost comical. saying i wish the ncaa was this concerned about the women who were raped at baylor. this goes to administrators and coaches at the school. the ncaa has no policy on how the school should handle sexual assault cases.
8:17 am
>> no, i don't. first of all, the statement is false. the board of governors, a couple of years ago, in fact, put in place a policy around how universities should be -- and colleges should be handling sexual assault. the two issues are completely unrelated. there's no question that this is a decision, the hb2 decision is one that's going to engender opinions on both sides of the aisle. it's a political season, unfortunate, people are going to say comments like that. >> to be clear, the ncaa does have a definitive policy in place with how schools are supposed to handle sexual assault charges? >> yeah, it does. two years ago in august, the board of governors passed a resolution -- >> a resolution, but not a policy? >> but what they're doing right now, that same board is in the midst of formulating whether or not that policy should become an enforceable rule. a rule that would allow the national association to go in
8:18 am
>> do you think they show that? >> i think they do. >> and the nba made a similar decision, they pulled the all-star game. did you seek counsel? i'm trying to understand the process, when you say this is right, is this wrong, this is what bothers me about this particular hb2 law? >> yeah, of course, i'm talked to adam a number of times on this and a number of other issues. the reason why the university presid conclusion last evening is, again, is this about sports that are conducted in the context of universities. and it's trying to reflect the values of higher education in america. inclusion. fairness. treating all of your student athletes, the coaches, their fans, in a way that reflects those values of our championships. that's what matters the most. the championships are a celebration of everything about higher education. >> were students weighing in, too? >> students were weighing in this, because we have students
8:19 am
governors' 3r5uszs. >> mark, out of another olympic cycle here, outside competition for athletes, katie ledecky who will be attending stanford, in doing so, she will be foregoing tens of millions of dollars in potential endorsements. to be argued, she's doing stanford and the ncaa a favor by not swimming. by not doing the model, why is she not allowed to keep the money paid to her for the things foot on that campus? >> well, she is. for current ncaa policies if she's awarded as she was, modest competition from the usoc, nfor having won, don't quote me, but i think it's $25,000. the ncaa could place a policy allowing you to retain those. >> why can't she be endorsed now

8:31 am
columnist maureen dowd, there she is in the green room. how she says the presidential campaign is an epic battle of the sexes. and why hillary clinton's campaign is having trouble reacting. right now, it's time to show you the headlines. "the new york times" reports that injuries are up sharply among young american soccer players. from 1990 to 2014, nearly 3 million kids went to emergency injuries. head injuries rose by 1600%. researchers say it's the sport's growing popularity and awareness of concussions. abby wambach admits to having a history of alcohol and drug abuse. he said in her arrest in april that driving of the influence was her wake-up call. she soapopens up.
8:32 am
coach an even yourself. you experience days of struggle, humiliation and loss. >> you can see abby revealing herself right here on "cbs this morning" this friday, september 16th. and "the wall street journal" rolled out a new tool to block offensive comments. users can make a list of words that they consider offensive. those words can be banned from comments. the tool had been available to some high-profile users since july. "time" reports on why students don't like sex education. the study examined the views of young people in ten countries. they acknowledge that sex is a special subjects. one student complained it's too clinical. schools also deny that students
8:33 am
and research views it is toward heterosexual relationship. the food and drug administration has been taking a hands off approach to stem cell clinics and now it's signaling interest in regulating some treatments like drugs, that could cost millions of dollars and be a lengthy process. and cbs news.com reports that wilderness areas are researchers call sobering. since the '90s, a loss of about 10%. scientists blame pollution before climate change. and of course, threatens the habitats of animals. u.s. news and world report out with annual rankings of american top colleges. for the fourth year in a row, princeton is the outright

university of chicago and yale tied for third. and stanford. the university of california tops the list. public universities. ucla and universe of virginia, second and universe of michigan and university of north carolina chapel hill. >> harvard ranks first for best value in national schools fold by princeton, yale, stanford and m.i.t. the opinions, faculty resources and substitute outcomes. student outcomes and opinions and graduation rates. grab the u.s. news and world report that hits the news stand in late september. former president bill clinton is speculating on his
8:35 am
white house. he told charlie yesterday, how his work with the clinton foundation has prepared him for new foundations. that conversation took place in new york, ahead of the foundation's final clinton global initiative conference. >> everybody wonders this question, if your wife is president, and you've answered it a thousand times but help me with a bigger and better answer, what might you do? >> well, first of all, let's start on what i read. there was a great article saying that i should really be a first lady. that is, that i needed to have a gender role. but i think first and foremost, i should do whatever i'm asked to do. that is, if hillary wants i'll be both the president, former president and a spouse. so, i think i should make those roles as consistent as possible
8:36 am
the team of advisers, whatever you want me to do, i will do that. i can do that. i can serve. i've had a wonderful life for the last 15 years. this is the longest i've ever had a job with the foundation. we've saved millions of lives and created lord only knows how many jobs and i've loved it. so, is this a new challenge for me. you know, a new it's very important that my wishes be one of the last things to be considered here. >> but your talent should be the first thing. >> and the needs, and the needs of the country. so, there are lots of things i can do. i'd like to be like all of these presidents -- i believe that this country is so close to being able to really grow again in a way that fits everybody.
8:37 am
are affordable and achievable and fairly straightforward. i think they are threatened by political gridlock at home and trouble around the world. trouble in terms of slow growth. trouble in terms of turmoil. but i have been for 15 years, how do you actually be there. i'm not as good as i used to be in politics. but if you send me to puerto rico to figure out how they can work their way out of if you send me to indian countries and figure out how they can diversify their economy by solving energy and getting affordable energy to them, i can do that. if you sent me to figure a new tax credit for a whole different economy, i could be good at that. i think. >> suppose she wants to make sure she wins this election, can
8:38 am
because maybie i'm not mad enouh at anybody. i know, you know, i still think it works better than, you know, division. and i think that responsibility is better than resentment. that's just what i think. it's simple, straightforward. that's what i believe. >> okay. let's assume that you make it heaven. less assume that god says when you get there, peter, or whoever it is, says, you spent 20 years at the clinton foundation between the election of 2000 and the election of 2016, 16 years. i don't have a lot of time, president clinton, so tell me what's the most important thing the clinton foundation achieved.
8:39 am
cheapest aid for half the people alive in the world. including more than two-thirds of the kids. we built an organization that helped 480 million in countries just by getting people together including organizing the first 500 kinds of medical equipment to the ebola epidemic and it didn't cause the taxpayers a penny. and we made life better f americans. created jobs and saved lives. we got caught trying. >> i love him saying he'll do whatever he's asked in the white house. that leaves it wide open for many, many things. >> essentially a troubleshooter. if you need me to be here -- somewhat like the role he played
8:40 am
8:44 am
? "the new york times" columnist maureen dowd has covered hillary clinton and donald trump for decades. the pulitzer prize winner wrote about trump in 1999, as he contemplated a run for president. she said the businessman is fewer id. no restraints. dowd described her time to quote, to figure out a way to mend her image problems. she takes critical odds to the 2016 election. maureen dowd joins us again at the table. welcome. >> thank you. >> you call this election, you
8:45 am
it versus the queen of hallmark. >> it's amake. her problem is she's too tightly controlled. his problem is he's out of control. his problem is he's too bold. and her problem is she's sometimes not bold enough. >> you call it the battle of the sexes. billie jean king and bobby riggs. >> well, gayle, it's interesting for centuries women considered temperamentally and unbiologically unsuited for office. you get a candidate who is bitchy and sometimes hysterical and worries about hair care, but it's not the woman. >> yeah. >> and yeah, then you have one who is very controlled, a hawk. and wears tailored suits. and it's not the man. so -- >> you take both candidates to
8:46 am
you say they both have a fluid relationship with the truth. that gaffes don't seem to matter, neither does is the truth. what does matter to voters. and what do you think it will take to sway undecided voters where the clock is ticking? >> i think voters are more fearful and depressed and anxious than they've ever been. they're trying to decide who to vote against. not to who to vote for. they have two historically high unpopularity ratings. it's a very sad saand anxious election that way. the republican party is being held hostage to his 70-year-old highchair king. and the democratic party is being held hostage to the whims of the bizarre clinton election for self-destructive and arrogant behavior just as things
8:47 am
that? >> i agree with david axelrod that it's more an stealth than health. one of the things that politics male and female get less sensitive about is health issues. my brother was a page for jfk after he had his back operation. >> a senate page. >> yeah. he opened the door for him when he was on crutches. and jfk tried to get my brother fired because humiliated to be on crutches. so the alt-right is trying to make it a gender issue with hillary that she's a woman who is weak. but it isn't about that. that is not the problem. the problem with the health issue for her, it's a microcosm since a very destructive policy since 1992 where she's just so secretive. she has her own wall. trump has his wall.
8:48 am
press anything. they're just out to get us. and then it takes a relatively mundane thing and it snowballs where her foes and -- >> with regards to transparency, now they're lobbing back and forth. i'm reminded from a great line from "princess bride" i keep using that word that you think it means in the cake. there are candidates for our time as well. celebrity-driven electorate. this transparency in a way does it matter for for an electorate that doesn't care. >> it's interesting because we're a selfie nation. and for some reason, running for president is the new selfie. that's why it's unhealthy for
8:49 am
>> the book is called the year of voting dangerously." i'm worried about the next year of governing dangerously. you wright the awesome responsibility of the job of presidency intensifies insecurities on pathology. and campaigns matter. >> you're exactly right, norah. i asked trump this in an interview, when we were talking one day. and i said you are -- he got mad at me, but i said you are clinical narcissist. and when you get in the white house, the problem is when some historical event hits you like 9/11, all of your insecurities and gremlins come out. all of these things are a perfect storm. >> maureen, you do have a lot of material. you'll never run out of
