she beat bernie sanders by sixille, south carolina, where sanders campaigned yesterday after losing to clinton in nevada. >> reporter: good morning. that nevada victory was a huge relief for the clinton camp and preserved her front-runner status and they have no time to dwell on it because 13 contests in the next ten days, starting here in south carolina. shrugging off his nevada loss, sanders told a crowd of thousands in greenville, he's on a roll. >> if you look at national polls and you want to a candidate who is going to defeat donald trump, you're looking at that candidate! >> reporter: tell that to clinton, who blitzed the vegas strip the last 48 hours to beat back a late sanders' surge. >> some may have doubted us but we never doubted each other!
7:10 am
and african-americans, were all key to clinton's victory. while younger voters, once again, were heavily for sanders. in a new memo, the clinton camp is disputing entrance polls that showed sanders won the latino vote by eight points. it is not possible that clinton lost the latino vote, the campaign writes, citing her double-digit win in the heavily latino clark county, home of las vegas. as the caucus we attended caesar's pals lass, the women voters were overwhelming clinton. >> amazing [ inaudible ]. >> reporter: the fight goes on! >> reporter: it's not academic. both candidates are trying to minority votes.

community has gone up and i think you're seeing our spaurtupport in the african-american community going up as well. >> reporter: sanders is winning the money raise according to january fund-raising totals. he outraised clinton last month by nearly 7 million and outspent her as well which could explain why she is in california today fund-raising. >> thanks.

7:12 am
person, marco rubio, says, is him, john kasich disputes that, but rubio is going to have to take the case to trump. what we saw in south carolina is what we see with every trump victory is that the new things that he can survive, just quickly what he survived in south carolina, being booed at two debates and taking on george w. bush and getting in a fight with the pope and he survived all of that to win. so he looks in pretty good shape right now. >> let's look forward to march 1st, super tuesday. who is best positioned to do well in those states, huge delegate load there. positioned. he has got the momentum of these wins. he is doing well in those states. obviously, ted cruz has an advantage in texas. he also -- cruz also has advantage in those southern states that are on super tuesday. but the problem for ted cruz is look at south carolina that was a state with 75 roughly percent of the evangelical voters and a
7:13 am
he couldn't beat trump there, after having been in sustained combat with him a month he couldn't beat him back. that suggests it's hard for him to do that on super tuesday. >> who benefits the most from jeb bush's departure from the race? it was an emotional time for him on saturday night. i'm wondering if you heard anything about that? >> both rubio and kasich said they have talked to people who donated to just about bush and have gotten some support. it looks like marco rubio is benefiting more. it's not so much the voters that will come to those two candidates, but it's the money and so, right now it looks like marco rubio may be grabbing some of that more than john kasich. >> it continues. john dickerson, thank you so much. the supreme court returns to work this morning for the first time since the death of justice antonin scalia. thousands of mourners gathered in washington saturday for his funeral. scalia's son paul led mass at the nation's largest roman catholic church. n crawford is at the supreme

justices will hear oral arguments today in two cases. jan, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. i mean, today really starts an court. none of these eight justices have ever served on the supreme court without justice scalia. but when they take their seats on the bench this morning, scalia's will be empty the nex 30 days and it's going to be covered in a black memorial cloth. run-of-the-mill. about government contracts but it is hard tomagine an oral argument without justice scalia there. he was such a dominate presence and without scalia, remember, this court is now divided 4-4 along ideological lines. many of the controversial cases will probably end up in a tie and that means the lower court decision will stand, unless the supreme court decides to reset them for argument next term. >> jan, what are your sources telling you about where we are in terms of picking a successor for scalia? >> reporter: well, the president has already started reviewing
7:15 am
the republicans are saying that, you know, they are not going to confirm anyone that he sends up to the senate with the court in the balance, they don't want him to turn it to the left. the stakes could not be any higher. >> jan, thank you so much. the fbi director is making a very personal and passionate plea in the standoff with apple over the san bernardino gunman's iphone. james come writes we simply want the chance with a search warrant to try to guess the terrorist's pass code without the phone essentially self-destructing and without it taking a decade to guess correctly. that's it. he said we don't want to break anyone's encryption or set a master key loose on the land.

8:02 am
as the democratic front runner. sanders said they have the momentum for the upcoming pry mars and for the november election. >> nevada's republican caucuses are tomorrow. the top three finishes will be campaigning in nevada today. donald trump swept a victory in saturday's primary as voterer turnout set a record. marco rubio edged out ted cruz by just over 1,000 votes. jeb bush's third disappointing finish in a row marked the end of his presidential bid. he suspended his campaign before all of the votes were counted. "wall street journal" columnist is a cbs news contributor and writing about the 2016 presidential race. good morning. >> good morning. >> it is monday. >> yes. we love monday. >> i do. it was tough to see jeb bush on the stage pull out of the race, what do you think it says about where were right now?
8:03 am
this was a candidacy i was skeptical of from the beginning. it didn't seem to me that jeb was the answer to any question the republican base was asking. i think he proved that there's a lot of people in politics who think we have the money. we've got the money. we're going to blow you away. he had the money. he didn't blow anybody away. they think we can buy up the talent, advisers, consultants, hae had them all the consultant and talent and it didn't work. nothing is sure in politics and that was something that didn't work. >> $150 million didn't work. >> they say, i wonder what's left and i wonder where it goes, you know? >> sometimes a right and wrong time to run. >> that's true. also, there was a funny -- jeb was a former, highly successful two-term governor of florida, as you well know. it had been a while since he had
8:04 am
he was not a great candidate. part of the reason was you constantly saw his sense of unease out there. that to me is mysterious and i wonder what it was about. there was a sense with jeb that he was work and trying but somehow his heart or psyche wasn't in it to. his smile never reached his eyes. whereas john kasich, he can't stop smiling. calm down. >> i was going to say donald trump is now leading in ten of the next 14 states, leading in the polls. is he ununoppable? >> well, you know, the proper approach of anybody prognosticateing in politics right now is humility. the year has shocked us.s. >> t ts doesn't seem like the year of humility.
8:05 am
prognosticators likeme. >> humility, where. >> d dald trump is winning without humility. >> my god, nobody has any idea. everybody thought that donald trump would stop himself with his mouth, with his impettousness, with the fact that not only did you not know what he was going to say next, that there was a sense he didn't know what would say next. he hasn't stopped himself. he has grown on. it is intntesting to me he had 25% of the party in polls and then maybe 30 and then maybe 34. it seems to me that as he continues to roll up wins, as we also suspect he will, that that ceil willing get higher, which will affect things. >> look to the democrats, where do you think h hlary is today? >> hillary is saved. she took it in the face in new hampshire. had a dangerous loss.
8:06 am
she can now i think sort of subtly or not subtly paint her competitor, bernie sanders not as a movement but a lite protest. >> do you thinin bernie sasaers helped her? >> you know, i think so far in two ways, assuming he doesn't beat her, he has helped her in the fact that he gave her someone to sharpen herself against as she ran and he forced her to come up with a meaning for her campaign. that meaning is, i think if i am reading it right, i believe i i progress that is possible. i believe politics is the art of the possible. in other words, she's saying my deliver. up. >> depends on how many new voters he can bring in the race. trump side. this year. >t's early in the race. thank you.

8:16 am
achieve perfection. the more than 300,000 students around the world who took the advanced placement calculus test last year he is one of only 12 who achieved a perfect score and most of the test takers were juniors and seniors. he was a 14-year-old sophomore. what d ds it feel like to have been perfect on this test? >> honestly, it's a little overwhelming. it's lots of interviews like this. >> reporter: and the tweet from the president? >> that was pretty cool. >> reporter: pretty cool? that is an understatement, right? >> yeah. >> reporter: his perfect score placed him in the top.004%. that means 1 in what? >> 25,000? >> reporter: i got 2,500. >> that would be -- it's .004%.
8:17 am
he beat me at math. beating a tv news reporter at math is no big deal but landon's parents say perfection is a big deal for him. mom and dad, were you surprised he got a perfect score? >> i wassurprised. >eporter: not becausese you don't think highly of him? >> no, no. >> reporter: you thought elses make a silly mistake? >> i did. that is just naral. >> reporter: even college professors who write the exams make mistakes. >> the professors don't expect this and it's remarkable when a high school student who doesn't have a college degree let alone a h.ph.d. in this subject area does not miss a point. >> reporter: landon credits his calculus teacher ann watkins. >> reporter: can calculus be intuitive? >> absolutely. >> reporter: you come to calculus to push the limits? >> absolutely. one of my t-shirts say calculus students kno theirlimits. >> reporter: that iss something

8:19 am
whatever he wants. >> reporter: aside from the perfect score, that is another big thing cedric and landon have in common -- parents who encourage their children to do their best. >> the problem with somebody like landon, his best just keeps getting better, so it's hard to know when he has done his best. >> reporter: ayou can see, i've been using the time productively to sharpen my math skills and not sure about the last one. the number of today is 12. the number who had a perfect score on this exam. by the way, both landon and cedric want to be engineers. landon wants to possibly send a rocket to mars and cedric wants to design something that is so cool that his name will be known around the world. >> believe! i believe that is going to happen! >> i believe. >> that's right. >> i love both parents, too. the pride that both parents felt about their sons. >> yeah. >> really good to see.

the new o oeans times is reporting anthony davis scored 59 points with 20 rebounds. the only player to report that in modern nba history. that is huge. >> 59 is a lototf points in the nba. he has prelreal promising potential. tension is on displpl in the fbi's ststdoff with apple over the san bernardino terrorist iphone. a powerful intelligence insider is weighing in. retired general major michael hayden says apple is right in principle, but the government has a point. hayden created and oversaw programs designed to keep americans safe. he is dirtor of the national security agency and director of the cia in the past and he is now telling his side of the story in a new book called "playing to the edge american inxelligence in the age of terror." general hayden, goooomorning.
8:33 am
>> let's look at the fbi story and make sure we understand exactly what you think. you have on the one hand, the fbi says we ought to be able to look at this. we need you to help us do it and only asking you to do it one time. >> ian one time. it means we are opening up privacy and violating the privacy of those people who buy what do you say. >> this is a morality play for the theme of the book which i describe is tough choices and not about the forces of light and the force of darkness. this is about balancing two virt things we want, liberty and safety and acting out in this particular sphere. i think apple is right in terms of opposing universal back doors to make it easier for any government to get into encrypted cocounications. >> but is that what t t government is asking them? >> no.
8:34 am
the fbi is asking apple to do in san berndino is that. and i think the burden of proof is on apple to show that there is an inevitable slippery slope from this very targeted focused request from the bureau, a slippery slope from that to this thing over here. charlie, look. as you said, i ran nsa. back doors are back doors. if they are in there, good security services around the world will exploit that and take advantage of that. >> government too? >> the government actually wish us no good. >> you also say in the book when it comes to national security and protecting our privacy and our lives, sometimes you have to go right to the edge and do whatever it takes. >> that's right. >> is it a bit of a contradiction to say, well, i don't totally oppose i agree with a back door? do you know what i'm saying? >> gayle, i get it and this is a perpetual gray area and never easy choices but there are lines.
8:35 am
you should not goo beyond a certain point. in my judgment, in this particular case is that universal back doors, although it may facilitate american law enforcement for very good purposes, on balance, on balance, actually are an overall negative for american security, not justmerican privacy. >> why would law enforcement or intelligence agencncs need the iphone exactly? in other words, you can go through the cloud. they have already checked his phone records, know who he has spoken with and pretty much cleaned a lot of material doing all of that. >> they have. and that is one of the arguments folks like me use for no universal back doors. there are other tools available. but, norah, in this particular case, it wasn't backed up to the cloud. and -- >> for the past 44 days before the attack? >> right. and you can't get it to talk to the cloud without getting into it and changing its cloud code.
8:36 am
needs to suppress the current ios which will destroy the data if you have unsuccessful attempt to open it. >> can you clear something up for me? it's interesting to me to watch on saturday the fbi put out a blog case and this morning, t t cook e-e-mailing. a public relations war going on between the two of them. isn't it true in the past apple has been cooperative and worked with the cia in the past? >> i w w't get into operatioiol details and apple has made it quite public they have been cooperative with american law enforcement with cases like this one but now apple is drawing this line. >> ios 7 or ios 8? >> i wouldn't get into the specifics. that is one of the detailed arguments that tilts this one way or the other. >> interesting thing is district attorney of new york has said he has got about 170 cases in which he can't gain access to an
8:37 am
evidence in terms of dangerous criminals. >> no. frankly, charlie, i think the u.s. attorney here making that case undercuts jim comey's argument that i got one off that i need your help. >> can we talk about your book for a second? >> please! >> here you are, the master secret keeper. for years you keep all of the secrets anddow you're writing a book about the secrets. i'm curious will the process for you and was it difficult for you to do? did you struggle with it? >> first of all, i've been doing this for a while. >> yes. >> i kind of know my own limits. >> got it. >> so i write to what i think the edge is in terms of classification. t everything then has to be cleared and, in this case, by cia, and nsa and the director of national intelligence. and, frankly, gayle, in the conversations, i pretty much got to say everything i wanted to say, even if not in all cases i got to say it the way i wanted to say it. >> what was your process?
8:38 am
let's take the syrian nuclear reactor. >> let's take that. >> long airplane rides with my ipad and kind of put out about 2,500, 3,000 words stream of consciousness and realized a lot of i don't remember. go to the agency, ask to see documents. ask to talk to people. meet with them. enrich the basic outline that i have. now i'm about 80%, 85% of the way i need to be on that particular chapter. >> can i ask you about the current prpridential debate? i know you know bob gates well, the former secretary of defense. he has essentially said it would be -- it's embarrassing the level of dialogue that is going on. when a candidate says they want to carpet bomb isis into oblivion, would that be possible? >> no and it would be unmoral and unworthy o o a republic like ourselves. secretary gates is absolutely right.
8:39 am
these are hard issues and an gray. waterboard. >> he said he would waterboard and a lot worse because they deserved it. this was never looking backward. this was trying to keep americans safe looking forward. people can argue what we did but it was never a form of punishment. >> do drones raise any morality quqution for you? >> obviously, i was intimately involved in targeted killings and in detail in the book and always raises moral questions. when the phone would ring in the middle of the night, charlie, i mean this, before i would pick it up, i said to myself, hayden, listen up. whatever you are going to decide on this call, you're going to live with the rest of your lirve. >> i've been told by cia moments they identify where they would get by a drone a leading terrorist and they have decided not to because they knew the family was too close.
8:40 am
judgments all the time. the laws of war, necessity proportionality and distinction and it goes through your mind. i tell a story in the book with the e ited states, where they took a shot at a wmd exert for be al qaeda even though his grandson was nearby. we contributed to the intelligence to that shot. >> you had to make the decision. >> the united states had to make the decision do you take it or not? we tried to avoid the civilian loss of life. >> but the grandson was killed in that scenario? . you had you can live with that? >> i can but without cavalier, i have grandchildren. when you're director of these kinds of agencies, you still have your personal moral self but you're acting on behalf of the nation and you have to realize it's a failure to make a tough decision. the failure to take that kind of shot could actually lead to something catastrophic. >> general hayden, thank you.
