welcome to "cbs this morning." donald trump is on the offensive against ted cruz with his texas senator. this follows new poll numbers to show cruz is becoming the main republican challenger to trump. one survey finds cruz now leads him in iowa by ten points. another poll finds hillary them in november. she holds the ten-point margin over trump and a three-point lead over cruz. but that poll also shows clinton narrowly losing to ben carson and marco rubio by three points. nancy cordes is in washington and looking at the changing numbers in this republican race. >> reporter: good morning. this is the second poll in less than a week to show cruz leading the gop field in iowa. trump's campaign instantly trashed the poll while trump himself chose to trash kruzcruz saying he's unfit for the job. >> i don't think he's qualified

this message for those who think his support is waning. >> i don't go down, i go up. my whole life is about winning. i'm going to win. >> reporter: and his allie, ted cruz, going after trump after promising he wouldn't. >> he goes in there like a man yak. >> reporter: on twitter he brushed off the comments posting a movie to the song "maniac." cruz refrained from attacking trump whose supporters he would like to win over. >> i think donald trump. a lot of our friends here have encouraged me to criticize and attack donald trump. i'm not interested in doing so. >> reporter: nationwide the real estate mogul still has a big lead beating cruz by 20 points in the latest cbs/new york times poll. still, the texas senator's outspoken opposition to obamacare and his willingness to take on both sides of the washington establishment

>> the way republican leadership punishes anyone who stands up to the cartel is they engage in public public flatulation. >> reporter: brian walsh worked to elect republicans to the senate in 2010 and 2012. >> he would be equally problematic. >> reporter: why? >> because again going back to the need that if we're going to win in 2016, we need to expand the electorate and need more female voters, more hispanics. and instead of learning those lessons, you have candidates like cruz and trump who are doing the exact opposite. >> reporter: top stage is now set for tomorrow's gop debate in las vegas. trump is front and center with ben carson on his right and ted cruz on his left with a total of nine participants on the stage. mike huckabee, rick santorum and senator lindsey graham didn't make it to the main debate and

thank you, nancy. "face the nation" moderator john dickerson is in johnston, iowa. john, good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> explain the ted cruz surge and whether it will make him the front-runner. >> well, the surge is that he has been patient and restrained in his campaign so far. and he appeals to the conservatives who participate in the caucus and the primaries because he's ideologically pure on the issues. and he also is behaviorally in sync with the grass roots, which is to say he's not a part of the washington establishment and staked his career in fighting that establishment. so when they look at him, they say this is something to fight for the principles we believe in. >> but it's also a candidate who has done a lot of hard work on the ground and has been well financed, right? >> well, that's right. that's what i'm saying, he's been disciplined and restrained which means he has not -- he spent a lot of time building a fund-raising network and

just the three or four contests. but all of the later states in the primary process to build a network and also to build a ground game so he can be in for the long haul. and that's starting to pay off for him in iowa. we'll see if it pays off in other states. >> the only republican raising more money than ted cruz is jeb bush. not only is he doing well in iowa, you have new hampshire, south carolina and nevada. but march 1st is the big primary, the southern primary states, which he's positioned to do very well in, right? he's got lasting power. >> he does. i mean, raising money of course isn't really the whole bundle. if it were, we would still have scott walker in the race and jeb bush would be doing better. what cruz has for this moment is that he's grabbing those voter who is are excited about ben carson. he has the fire that the grassroots want. then the money allows him to turn that into sort of a big boost. so he has been -- this is --

following and now that he's getting the love or the look from the voters, he does have a system in place. >> john dickerson, i was watching "face the nation" yesterday morning, my favorite sunday morning program, and you had on ray lutz asking former trump supporters what they would do if he left the party. we'll run the tape and get you on the other side. >> it's a $64,000 question. with marco rubio as the republican nominee and trump running as an independent, will you vote for trump, raise your hands. right now the establishment republicans just died. >> it's real change. >> that's more than half of you that just raised your hands that you're going to leave the republican party. >> no, we're going to -- i'm

wants to change this country. >> the republican party has failed us the last two times with weak candidates. first with mccain who was weak and romney who was weak. we are tired of weak candidates. there is no number two to trump. who is number two in the republican field than trump to really win the election, who? >> trump is an independent. you're voting for trump. >> yes. >> yes, i would vote for marco rubio because maybe the party does need to be fractured. maybe it is time to blow it up. blow it up. >> a lot of interesting things to say. what do you make of that exchange, in particular? >> obviously, it was not good for republicans who want party unity and -- part of it might be a little overdone, which is to say if those same voters, if donald trump didn't get the nomination and saw the independent bid by him as a guarantee that would help hillary clinton, they might change their views and not bolt.

small number of them don't bolt, the republicans want them all turning out, especially if it's a candidate like ted cruz who believes the goal in the general election is to turn out as many conservatives as possible. so it is a problem that the republican party is going to have to deal with. >> certainly more to come on this. thank you, john dickerson. president obama is starting the week focusing on isis and terrorism. he's holding a meeting with the national security council and is expected to speak about the isis threat. he's also scheduled a conference call with religious leaders. the president's strategy is playing out on the front lines in northern iraq. a cbs news team traveled there some 20 miles northwest of mosul. isis has controlled iraq's second largest city for a year and a half. charlie got to see the deadly threat from the weaponry in dohuk, iraq. charlie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. in many ways it was routine assignment, head out to the

forces are holding up against isis. but we got to within a half mile of isis territory and man did we witness how deadly and determined this enemy can be. colonel badal and his forces have been fighting to hold this front line outside of mosul for more than a year. how often does isis attack you? they attack whenever they can, he said. in fact, three suicide bombers charged toward their outpost. his soldiers were able to kill the drivers before they detonated their explosives. but two car bombs remained there not 50 yards away posing a deadly threat to the troops. here on the front lines, the bomb squad is a .50-caliber gunman who fired rounds into one vehicle until it went up into a plume of smoke.

much closer to us. we watched from a sniper hole in the bunker until finally a direct hit. that noise you can hear is debris raining down on top of us. shrapnel from the bomb and twisted remains of the vehicle went sky high after the explosion. everybody's ears were ringing. but the next sound was laughter. it's a happier ending when car bombs blow up on the other side of the front lines. when you're up close to one of those huge car bombs, you realize how destructive they can be in civilian areas. and why they are the most feared isis weapon on the battlefield. and attacks like these are happening every day. norah? >> charlie reporting from iraq, thank you.

evidence to terrorism to bring down a russian jetliner in october. that contradicts russian and western governments that say a bomb likely exploded inside the plane. isis claims to have smuggled an explosive on board. investigators are still trying to learn who syed farooktashfeed malik talked to before they went on their shooting massacre. carter is there with more details, good morning. >> reporter: investigators are focusing on what caused the two to open fire at the regional center behind me. new comments malik made before she entered the u.s. is raising questions about how thoroughly she was vetted before she came here. dive teams from the fbi and

the bottom of this muddy lake over the weekend. they pulled multiple objects from the water but it is still unknown if they recovered a computer hard drive. and syed farook and tashfeed malik may have discarded that before they were killed in the shoot-out with police. they hope to search the hard drive on possible connections between the couple and foreign terror groups. law enforcement sources confirm to cbs that malik made radical postings on social media as far back as 2012. two years before she moved to the united states and married farook. according to a report in "the new york times," malik spoke openly on social media about her support for violent jihad and said she wanted to be a part of it. but none of the postings were discovered when malik applied for a fiance visa. >> if you are doing a deeper dive into somebody, you really want to focus on the high-risk

the person you're really worried about being a threat to the united states. the question is, how do you identify that? >> reporter: malik was not identified as a threat. despite being interviewed at the u.s. embassy in pakistan and vetted by five different government agencies who checked her name and picture against a terror watch list and ran her fingerprints against two databases. >> this is a case in retrospect we know this is a person who had a lot of red lights and red flags. how come they didn't standout as a high-risk traveler, that's a really, really good question. >> reporter: informationvestigators continue to question farook's friend enrique marquez. it is very likely he will eventually be arrested. but he has waived his rights and communicating with investigators. >> why wasn't that known? carter, thank you so much. there are new demands for justice this morning after another deadly police shooting

two sheriff's deputies fired 33 times at a man holding a gun on saturday in lynnwood outside of los angeles. 28-year-old nicholas robertson died. the investigation is underway whether the officers used appropriate force. we have controversial video of the shooting. we want to warn you, it may be very disturbing to watch. >> reporter: this cell phone video captured the moment nicholas robertson was gunned down by two deputies. they paused before firing again. [ bleep ] as robertson tried to crawl away. on sunday the sheriff's department released this photo of robertson still holding his .45-caliber semiautomatic handgun after he was shot. minutes before the deadly encounter a surveillance camera captured him walking along a busy street armed. >> he's handling the gun in an odd sort of way and seems to be agitated. >> reporter: the department received multiple 911 calls

>> i saw a guy holding a gun and pointing at people. >> we thought it was fireworks and then my mom looked out the window and he has a gun, shooting straight into the air. >> how many times did he shoot into the air? >> like at least six times in the air. >> reporter: one of the deputies who responded had been in the field for a year. the other for 18 months. investigators said robertson's gun was not loaded but found two live rounds within his grasp. >> he did not reply with their repeated requests to drop the weapon. >> reporter: activists and civil rights leaders called for an independent investigation. >> this means he's on edge. what they saw was a young black man shot in the back by police officers, shot again as he crawled to his death. >> reporter: for "cbs this morning," ben tracy, los angeles. this morning extreme weather is sweeping across much of the country. flash flooding triggered

a section of interstate 5 was closed for more than three hours. heavy snow forced drivers off the road sunday in the texas panhandle. parts of kansas received more than half a foot of snow. and crews in east texas are cleaning up today after three tornadoes touched down in that state on saturday. high winds derailed a freight train. at least two cars crashed onto a highway. this morning china says its president spoke with president obama late sunday to discuss implementing the landmark climate change deal. in paris saturday nearly 200 nations committed to keeping global temperatures from rising another 1.8 degrees fahrenheit. china was a player. that's a chase from 2009 when beijing was blamed for the failure of climate talks. we asked president obama about holding china accountable in an earlier interview this month. how can we trust china, the world's number one polluter? how can we trust them, take their word they will make the cuts necessary? >> well, keep in mind what we're

ale though the targets are self-generated, the united states says here's what we're going to do. china puts forward its own plan. germany puts forward its own plan. so that aspect of it is not legally binding. but what we are saying is is that every country should be subject to some sort of reporting requirement, some sort of accountable. that it should be reviewed every five years so that we can see whwh has happened in various countries. and what more we can do based on new science and new technology. >> and that accountability is keep as the paris agreement also calls for the countries to send billions to help poor countries deal with climate change. the nation watched accused killer robert durst make a chilling statement on an open microphone. but ahead, see hownight...

self-balancing boards on the plain planes. erin more artie is learning that robert durst it expected to plead guilty to a federal gun charge. that to comean a decade in prison but there is another twist. erin is here with how the deal would force a showdown in the murder case. erin, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. i'll get to that twist, but for more than 30 years, durst and his posse of highly skilled lawyers have outmaneuvered lawyers but in the end a .38 pistol and his own mouth that did him in. >> did you have anything to do with the death of your wife? >> i don't know that she is dead. >> reporter: robert durst appeared in the hbo documentary "the jinx." he made several incriminating statements concerning not only his first wife's 1982

york but also the unsolved 2000 murder of his once close friend susan berman in her los angeles home. in the case durst admitted that handwriting looked nearly to his own on that piece of evidence. >> the writing looks similar. the spelling is the same. i can see the conclusion the cops would draw. can i have this? >> reporter: durst still wearing a microphone in the bathroom is heard mumbling what sounded like a confession to murder. authorities in los angeles tipped off before the final episode aired in march, issued an arrest warrant for durst in berman's murder and then tracked him down to new orleans, where they found cash, pot, and a handgun in his hotel room. >> not guilty. >> reporter: it's the possession

finally tripped up durst. this thursday as part of an agreement hammered out between his lawyers and federal prosecutors, he is expected to return to federal court in new orleans and plead guilty to possession of a firearm by a felon. a conviction ka that could mean a sentence of ten years in federal prison. here is that twist in the plea agreement. durst is asking to spend his sentence in the state of california and the reason? he actually wants to go on trial there for the murder of susan berman and if he is in that federal prison in california, he no longer has to be extradited. the los angeles county out. he is actually making it easy for everybody to put him on trial. >> the question is why? >> well, i think -- to be honest, i think this is a high stakes game of chicken. i think his attorneys say he wants to clear his name. and they want him to go on trial sooner, rather than later. they don't believe that the prosecutors have enough evidence, despite what we have

actually convict him beyond a reasonable doubt. and so the los angeles prosecutors don't have to say, we have to extradite him, he is right there and they can just get him. >> number one, you've been covering this trial forever! >> my entire life it feels like! >> how soon could he go on trial? >> they would like to see him in california by spring/summer. that leaves it up to the prosecutors, of course. but he has to be arraigned and they are going to push for it and they could actually wave his right to a speedy trial which means he could go on before the end of the year. but i think that is unrealistic but i think they are pushing it. >> he's in poor health? >> well, he is. but he has cancer. that seems to be in remission. he has balance problems and he has a stent in his head. he could get as much as ten years. >> how old he is? >> 72 and he'll be 73 in april. it's not quite clear exactly how

this actually resolves a lot of cases their pending against him. there were some banking charges that could have been charged against him so this will resolve it so he'll spend the long end, so somewhere around ten years. >> thank you for staying on this case, erin. >> i will. some peace corps volunteers

the peace corps says 91% of its volunteers are satisfied with the medical care they receive. but government reports, as far back as 1991, found problems with that care. some volunteers tell us they have fallen through the cracks. in some cases, for decade. 73-year-old nancy minodao flanagan is struggling. in 1965 as a young peace corps volunteer in meleeaeleealaysia she was raped and impregnated about a daughter who died. >> i had nightmares and flash backs. >> reporter: in 2002 she got word she would be rehe intursimbursed with medically expenses but needed receipts. >> it was 50 years ago.

>> when you're advocating for yourself they are not advocating for you either. so there needs to be better measures in place. >> reporter: the peace corps says it's been implementing significant reforms like hiring staff to help with the claims process but to do more, the law would have to change. the department of labor told us the average volunteer gets a decision on their claim within 29 to 46 days. >> thank you. >> these are troubling. >> something is wrong. bureaucracy complacency. >> you believe what they are saying so somebody is listening, saying, okay, houston, we have a big, big problem. see what they do. >> a wake-up call. finding the next generation of pilots. ahead, we go along for a ride to see how aerobattics try to encourage young people to reach for the sky. night... with gusts hitting 40 mph and higher.

, trt: : this morning a cifor this morning a california hospital is tracking down hundreds of people who may have been exposed to tuberculosis. the possible exposure affects more than a thousand people. it includes 350 newborns. a nurseality at santa collar rah hospital tested positive. dr. david agus is in los angeles with more on what makes this infection so dangerous. good morning to you. how serious a threat is it? >> it's serious. at the turn of the last century, tuberculosis was the number one killer in the united states. it's gone down dramatically to about 9,000 cases a year in united states. in newborns it can be fatal.

they'll be treated with a six-month course of isoniazid. adults have to wait until they either show a positive test or are symptomatic and then they'll be treated. >> are there special concerns for the babies this. >> no question about it. when tuberculosis hits a child, it can spread throughout the body. they'll go on the medicine. the medicine has clear side effects that could affect the liver and the nerves. it was felt the benefit was greater than the risk in this case. >> the hospital knew about this in mid november, that the nurse had tested positive for tb. >> that's the really sad part, at least to me. september. then went to her doctor, the found it. hospital. it took them a month to put together a game plan of identifying the kids and the parents who were affected as

and also how to notify them in figuring out what to do. to me a month is too long. talk. david? >> we can prevent it by isolating the individuals. turn of the century they built specific tuberculosis hospitals and put patients in them. but we have to get better as a identifying this. right now we can culture it, but it takes several months. things. but we need immediate tests for this disorder so as soon as somebody has it, we can make sure they don't spread it and we can treat it. the science hasn't caught up yet with what we're doing. >> david, turning to something less serious, steve jobs influenced you greatly as your friend and got you to wear a black sweater all the time. why are you wearing red and what would steve think? >> he would approve, david. >> steve would roll over. this is gayle king's influence

just kidding. >> don't want any e-mails. all right. >> yes. >> okay. all right. this morning, this regional airlines are struggling to find pilots due to the high cost of flight school. jetblue has a unique plan to address that issue. they are recruiting students with little or no experience and then them how to fly. air shows are another way to encourage aviation careers. the jetblue team is on its first american tour and john blackstone went on board to learn how to become a young pilot. >> reporter: i'll come with you. lifting off in formation, my life was in the hands of pilot gaston march dsand. >> i had my coffee this morning and i'm perfect. >> flying up to speeds of 565

>> we like the aviation to flourish and like it to be a little more popular. >> reporter: it's estimated 21,000 pilots will be turning 65 and face mandatory retirement from the four major airlines. those jobs are often filled by military flyers or younger regional pilots moving up. but these days, fewer people are pursuing careers in the cockpit. in part, because of the increasing cost of education and flight time. an investment of up to 200,000 dollars to qualify to become a commercial pilot. cbs news aviation and safety expert captain sully sullenberger says what is really needed is raising pilot wages at regional airlines. >> it really doesn't make sense for entry-level jobs in aviation to pay sometimes less than $20,000 a year or just over $20,000 a year. . when it requires a lot of training, the major airlines must bear some responsibility for this current situation. >> reporter: but at air shows,

industry get lost in the clouds. what is on display here is the joy of flight. thomas yonky, 17 and his 14-year-old sister, have their heart set on becoming pilots. is this any part of what made you want to fly? >> yes. >> yes. seeing them maybe one day, that could be me up there. >> reporter: and for one show at least, i am part of the breiling jet team and surviving tight loops and discovering that pulling 4 for 5 gs causes a flood in your head to rush south! >> we are just ordinary people doing extraordinary things. >> reporter: hoping those extraordinary things make someone else want to reach for the sky. for "cbs this morning," john blackstone, above ventura, california. >> very cool, indeed. we need more great pilots. >> always ready to go.

harvard researcher amy cuddy says it's all about the body leading the mind. she's in our toyota green room and saying your iphone is ruining your posture and mood on your iphone! busted! >> oh. >> jane fonda writes a note to her younger self. find out what she learned ahead. "wall street journal" says more businesses are changing prices by the minute to respond to changing demands. this happens with airline prices so-called dynamic pricing is being used on everything from zoo tickets to tolls to ski resort tickets. economists say on average consumers pay more as a result. "the washington post" reports on what could be the largest hollywood movie ever. some say bigger than the oscars. three theaters are rolling out red carpets tonight for the world premiere of "star wars" "the force awakens."

original premiere of "star wars" in 1977. "the force awakens" opens on friday. >> "usa today" reports on adele this morning announcing her tour dates for north america. yea yea! it kicks off in st. paul, minnesota. six shows at madison square garden. adele's last tour was back in 2011. she was forced to cancel or postpone many of those dates because of illness. >> i think we have got a date lined up, guys! new york's daily news reports all i want for christmas is you is no longer the most played holiday song in stores. it's been replaced by this. i'm happy a wonderful christmastime >> shoppers are more likely to hear a cover of paul mccartney's "wonderful christmas times."

not the most played song. i don't know what it is but i love that song. >> i love it. >> i do too. do you have a favorite christmas carol? >> "all i want for christmas is you." >> an article in "the new york times" -- charlie, what is your favorite? you didn't tell us. >> i didn't. >> okay! >> an article in "the new york times" explores how smartphones are bad for our posture and our mood. amy cuddy argues that hunching over devices leads to physical and psychological problems. right now, "the times" most e-mailed story and her "ted talk" the most watched with nearly 30 million views. cuddy explains how posture can affect some of the basic and the biggest moments of our lives. >> the social scientists spent a lot of time looking at our body language on judgments. we make sweeping judgments and inferences from body language and those judgments can

outcomes who we fire or promote or ask out on a date. >> the harvard professor and researcher coined the term "power pose." and standing like wonderwoman two minutes before a big challenge can provide a surge of confidence. her new book is called "presence." bringing your boldest self to your biggest chags.llenges. welcome. >> thank you. >> the body is like the mind's easy button. what we do with our body shapes what we do with our mind but we forget about that because we are stuck in our heads all the time. >> how does posture influence our behavior? >> posture makes us more assertive if we open up and expand and take up space because that is what we do when we feel paumpl and dominant. if we tell ourselves we feel that way it opens us to challenges and we approach instead of avoid.

>> many people always say, amy, fake it until you make it. you say fake it until you become it. what is the difference between the two for you? >> i think fake it until you make is tricking other people into believing you're something you're not. fake until you become it means you fool yourself into being your best self. so you trick yourself into feeling confident enough to bring forward your best self. >> you give examples. before a big presentation, they go in the mirror and do and say what? >> a couple of things you can do. i would say expand. stand like wonderwoman and stands like a starfish and make yourself as big as you can in private! before you walk into these situations and that will basically optimize your brain to deal well in a really challenging situation. another thing that you can do, my colleague allison woodbrook has research showing this. instead of saying i'm anxious, you say i'm excited. you can't say i'm calm when you're already on a higher mode but you can tell yourself that you're excited. >> there is science and research behind this?

>> you talk about, too, being imposters that many people will say i'm very successful and you say being accomplished doesn't take away the imposter story. you told a story you felt like an imposter. how? >> i felt like an imposter many times. i had a really serious head injury and i never wanted to be found out. and, you know, i was sure if i was, people would say, you know, we are taking these credentials away. my son said to me one day, you're the luckiest person in the world. i said why? because you get paid to do what you love doing. you study people and you try to make the world better. i thought when he said that, oh, no, i'm going to be found out, somebody will take this job away. this is too good to be true. >> you spend a lot of time in this book talking about the imposter syndrome. sheryl sandberg and others have written about it. the idea they are not supposed to be where they are. what is the basis of that?

>> i think the basis is that we are in our heads with these doubts and we don't realize that other people are also in their heads with these doubts. so we look around at everybody else and we think they are fine and i'm not fine. so there is, obviously, something wrong here. i'm an imposter but they actually belong here. >> someday they will discover me? >> exactly right. >> let's talk about how you're sitting right now at this moment and what you thought about before you came out here. >> um. i thought about wanting to sort of open myself up. >> but you're sitting back and you're sitting back in the chair and your knees are here. >> i think -- i think legs crossed are fine. women cross their legs. i think that is fine. when women do this thing i call twisty legs where they also wrap their ankles, that is no good. i'm trying to keep my elbows on the arms of the chair because that keeps mimi instead of doing this, which is super powerless. this is super powerless.

and touching our face or necks. >> they are nervous. >> you see that happening you know somebody is feeling powerless or nervous. >> you talk about the gender differences. little kids and little boys and little girls just see men as more powerful. >> we did a series of studies with 4-year-olds and 6-year-olds and showed them pictures of dolls that were gender nurt andeutral and in postured like this and like this. even by age 4, the kids thought these dolls were boys and these dolls were girls. by age 6, the effects was even stronger. so kids are learning those cultural stereotypes very, very early. >> i like your picture of the power pose. why is that a power pose? this is norah at her desk. why is that the power pose? >> it's so expansive. it's not a position you would normally adopt. if you look at pictures of president, they are often in that position in the oval office. they have got their feet on their desk and hands behind their heads. >> have you noticed the way

it's always like this and gesturing like that. >> there is a lot of gesturing from donald trump and seems not super controlled so that takes away from the sort of -- >> you analyze the gestures of presidential candidates? >> oh, well. that's always a slippery slope. no one is ever happy when i do that. >> but talk about when you said something we were talking earlier, you said something, sometimes your presence is more important than what you say in a presentation. that is really interesting to think about. so if someone is giving a presentation or going for an interview, what are the things they should do? >> what you need to do is believe your story before you go in. the funny thing is that we might believe our story but we get to the door and filled with self-doubt and all of a sudden we no longer believe it and that comes through. no one else will believe your story if you don't believe your story. that is really the key. that is the manifestation of presence is going in and showing people who you actually are.

strange, who you are is better than something that seems scripted and chorpeographed that you don't believe. >> the name of your book is was? >> it's called "presence." >> so much good stuff in this book. >> thank you for having me. >> we appreciate it and "presence" goes on sale next tuesday, december 22nd. that is the power pose, charlie. jane fonda shares what it

nominated series "note to self." >> dear jane. what you don't realize now is that your life will be like a big circle, passing through many dark periods when you will see no future for yourself. when you won't know who you are and you won't feel that anyone will ever be able to love you. bright eright now, you want to be a boy. preferably a native american boy. living in the willerness and passing through it silently, invisibly, with stealth. >> you will be sexually molested at 7. just as your mother was as a child. when you're 12, your mother will commit suicide and the bravery

supposed to have. >> what kind of relationship is that? >> well, you know, like a -- like a father and a daughter. i wish i could explain to you that the painful things that will make your life challenging and get you in trouble are the very things that will ultimately make you strong and compassionate. >> your biggest strength will be that you won't shut down and become cynical. you'll become an activist. >> 1-2-3! we don't want you any more. >> i didn't go to north vietnam to talk over -- over the radad hanoi. i went there to see with my own eyes. if it was true the civilian targets were gone. you will discover that doing this will give your life a meaning you don't think is possible right now.

it will be the rap you pay for life. >> jane in your short career you've done theater and motion pictures. what do you find the most rewarding? >> well, i like the theater, the stage of my development. you're a late-bloomer, jane, so it won't happen quickly, but close that door or i'll shoot! a woman with courage. i'm not asking him to lie. i'm not asking him to cover anything up, but he is going to tone it down or i'm going to fire him. imagination. you spineless chicken! >> and resilience. >> you look fabulous. a perfect -- >> getting mixed up with the last millennium, mick!

turn 78 and though i know you'll find this hard to believe, this is the happiest i have ever been. it was all worth it. the good and the bad, so don't give up. i'm proud of you because you will never settle for less than you think you can attain. love, jane. >> love, jane. thank you, jane! what a great message to say that as you get older, life gets better and that you feel happier in her case. she talks about growing up not knowing what love feels and to finally feel she loves that. >> she learned the lessons well. >> she did. she did. very candid and very nice. >> beautifully done and beautifully produced.
