candidate where there's something over the head of the party and that individual? >> reporter: trump then pretended he wasn't trying to take cruz down a peg in iowa, where the two are locked in a battle for first. >> i hope this would not be a reason for disqualification. >> reporter: before appearing with cruz at a rally on the capital steps in september, trump said cruz's canadian birth was a non-issue. cruz was born in canada to an american mother, making him a u.s. citizen. cruz's response? a twitter link to fonzie jumping a shark on the tv show "happy days," recognized ever since as a symbol for an entertainment phase gone hopelessly stale. on the battle front of tv ads, cruz tried to tap the same grain of immigration frustration trump has inspired. >> the politics would be

we will be right back. my opioid pain medication leaves me feeling locked up. that's called opioid-induced constipation, or oic. a different kind of constipation. it's been a real struggle to find relief. paint a different picture. talk to your doctor about oic and prescription treatment options. i drive a golf ball. i drive to the hoop. i drive a racecar. i have a driver. his name is carl. but that's not what we all have in common. we talked to our doctors about treatment with xarelto . xarelto is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. xarelto is also proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. for people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how
7:53 am
reducing the risk of stroke. you know, taking warfarin, i had to deal with that blood testing routine. i couldn't have a healthy salad whenever i wanted. i found another way. yeah, treatment with xarelto . hey, safety first. like all blood thinners, don't stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. while taking, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto can cause serious and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto , watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto , tell your doctor about any kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto is the number one prescribed blood thinner in its class. well that calls for a round of kevin nealons. make mine an arnold palmer. same here. with xarelto there is no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions.

of just over $450 million. >> that's a really nice, tight, black lam borborghini that i would like to have. you're getting your driver's license, i want you to learn what it's like to drive when there are other passengers in the car. >> i can't do this all day. i'm charlie rose with gail king and nora h o'donnell. governments around the world are reacting with alarm and skepticism. the test registered overnight as a magnitude 5.1 earthquake. it was centered at a site where nuclear tests were carried out
8:01 am
north korea's announcement on state-run television took aim at the united states. it said the test was a self-defense measure. >> and people across the border in south korea watched nervously, but south korea's military says it doubts the explosion was big enougug to be a hydrogen bomb. the u.n. security council is holding an emergency meeting at this hour to address that situation. president obama mourned gun violence victims. the government will hire 200 more investigators to make those checks more effective. there are also plans to increase mental health treatment and to improve reporting to the background check system. >> the president has seen his share of mass shootings during his term. he spoke about them in his remarks on tuesday. the president shared a new level of that emotion tuesday, talking

do things that the constitution doesn't allow you to do. >> what he's basically doing, he's issuing things and he's ignoring the legalities of it. >> president obama came out with yet another set of laws, executive actions threatening our second amendment right to keep and bear arms. >> this is a liberal agenda on his part that makes no sense. >> why is he signing executive orders all the time? it's no good. it's no fair, and they're not going to screw around with the second amendment, okay? it's not going to happen. >> comments from people cam paning for the presidency. a cbs "new york times" poll showed that 87% of republicans favor background checks on all gun buyers, that number is similar to the views of all americans. for the first time donald

birth in canada might threaten his why is bid. >> the problem ask if the democrats bring a lawsuit and that lawsuit can take years to resolve and how do you govern when that's over the head of an individual? >> cruz was born in canada to an american mother. the constitution says no person except a natural born citizen shall be eligible to the office of president. it does not define what natural born means. >> but a 2011 report from the congressional research service clarifies that natural borne includes people born abroad to u.s. citizen parents. the state department agrees. it says, quote, a child born abroad to one u.s. citizen parent acquires u.s. citizenship at birth. since cruz is born to an american mother, he has natural born citizenship. >> this was also an issue as i recall with senator mccain.

"usa today" reports hudson. there he is. one of the more memorable moments on "the idol" show. two experts compared online ratings of 800 books and founds books are rated higher 74% of the time and movies higher 4% of the time. only about 1% are ranked much better than books. we continue this morning with our look at the brave new world of health. that includes promising new ways to prevent and treat cancer. our dr. david agus, his new book is called "the lucky years." he writes one day cancer will be a manageable condition much in
8:27 am
arges and type 1 diabetes. >> he is here along with dr. judy gasher and also anna barker, former deputy director at the national director of the cancer institute. pleased to have you all here. 44 years ago, president nixon declared a war on cancer. where are we in that war? >> you know, i don't think we have won at all and i think we are actually just at the beginning of the war. for the first time ever, i can walk into a patient's room and have optimism. not optimism i can cure them but optimism i can make them live longer and better with than horrible disease. >> what has changed? >> we have two kinds of therapy. precision medicine and immunotherapy that is offering a staggering hope in this disease and both of them is actually in practice. >> i know you agree on that. how did immunotherapy works?
8:28 am
>> it has looked in way of treating cancer. in years past what we have done is target the cancer and cut it out and treat with a tox cal chem. now immunotherapy is looking us to change the immune system and entirely different way of treating cancer. it's 40 years in the making but we are there and we are seeing a lot of responses. durable responses in patients we have never seen before. >> how does it work? >> it's pretty exciting. >> how does it work? >> it can work in many ways. it can work by turning on your lympho cites or taking things off cancer cells called checkpoint inhibitors are popular now. >> the cancer -- this block that don't eat me signal to allow the cells to come in and eat them. >> we want that. judy, you talk about the genetics.
8:29 am
the braach regime. >> not very many people have a strong gene like anklegelina jolie. we save lives for those people. for the rest of us who don't have those genes, all of our genes have a role in balancing what we are exposed to and how we fight them off ourselves. so our genes are still important. finally, our cancers have their own versions of our genes and that is where targeted therapies and physician medicines come when you can understand part of the biology driving that tumor and those genes that are making it different and target those. >> but it's still such a scary thing. i'm going to get a mammogram on friday and it's always a very nerve wracking thing. you look at the statistics where it says every three minutes, two people in the u.s. die from cancer. when you hear the "c" word you think, oh, no, it's over. i don't understand, david with, all of the brains we have
8:30 am
technology, that we still can't say we can cure it. >> listen. i'm with you. we have to approach it in a different way. historically we target the cancer cell but more we are trying to change the system. my job is to target that cancer and kill the cell and to change you where the doesn't want to grow and a new way of approaching and i hope we yield from it but you're right, we failed. my business has not done as well as we could have. >> david, what we underestimate is this disease. every disease, there are similarities, but the cancer cells can be different within an individually and the cancers between individuals canning dwight -- can be quite different. the challenge is to target each individual and their genes that get translated. it's a huge challenge. we don't underestimate the challenge. >> are we looking at the
8:31 am
therapies can attack a number of different cancers, not just a specific cancer? >> correct. we are seeing what we call signatures. changes in the genes that look reproductive reproducible from one type of cancer to the other. your risk of kidney cancer is what for lung cancer what you receive from kidney cancer. we are just understanding the changes to let us target that particular individually. >> you offer an anecdote about steve jobs' kansas city. >> he was safe on a lily pad but once the cancer progressed he was swimming again in the pond. what is true that anna said. 1840s we started to characterize cancer by body parts and it hasn't changed since. we will categorize them by on
8:32 am
not have lung cancer but something of the kind. >> let's talk about prevention. the thing that most people should start focusing on. you say in your book what you do early on in life affects what you do later in life. what can we do when we think about prevention? >> i think there is a lot we can do. >> yes. >> unfortunately, much of it is the basic things we have already known. >> yes. >> we would prevent cancer if we could get rid of cigarettes. >> environmental factors? >> the environmental factors and lifestyle factors. the things you can control. if you can heat a healthy diet and exercise and try to take good care of yourself and not smoke, you can reduce cancer risks by 40%. 40% is huge. then you're left with all of those -- and in trying to stay ahead. so that is what we talked about genetics genetics. some people will learn they can prevent. others have to play the healthy lifestyle game all their lives. we talked about early detection.
8:33 am
we do beat some cancers when we find them early. >> do you think -- do you agree with dr. agus about baby aspinner every day? >> yes, 100%. >> 100%? >> yes! >> and for heart disease too. it's a two-fer. >> prostate cancer, baby as aspinneras aspirin. damian lewis has a new role. you'll love to hate this guy. we will ask him about that. what about those james bond rumors that keep bubbling up
8:34 am
over here, it's called a rigged economy, and this is how it works. most new wealth flows to the top 1%. it's a system held in place by corrupt politics where wall street banks and billionaires buy elections. my campaign is powered by over a million small contributions, people like you who want to fight back. the truth is you can't change a corrupt system by taking its money. i'm bernie sanders. i approve this message.
8:35 am
everything. >> so the truth. >> the truth? you came this close to blowing into a million piece. did you tell him that? >> i didn't wear a bomb! >> damian lewis became a star as brodie on "homeland." and now to star in "billions." he plays a powerful hedge fund manager in his success and expensive real estate gets the attention of the u.s. attorney who thinks the hedge fund isn't trading above board.
8:36 am
i'm here. >> well, in my office thought you might buy that house. i told them you have big -- but not that big. >> yeah, right. i'll probably pass. it's so nice, though, you know? feels like you're part of the beach and ocean and all that air out there? you know about it. your daddy has got a little place out there. he must let you use a bedroom some weekends if you say please. >> walk away. >> wow! damian lewis! good morning. >> you're in trouble! >> you know? >> let's just say this is not objective because we are all huge fans of you. we loved "homeland" and this. is it fun playing a billionaire? >> great fun playing a billionaire. i'd like to know what it's like to be a billionaire. it was good fun. in terms of production value on
8:37 am
moments in a yacht and helicopter and fast cars and all of that kind of stuff and using the beautiful new york -- >> did you talk to hedge fund guys who make so much money every year? >> i did. they were all fascinating. all with a compelling defense for being billionaires, being hedge fund titans. >> i don't know if you've seen it. a piece in "wall street journal" today in the business section about how the writers met with a u.s. attorney here in new york to also get a sense for this whole thing. so it's not so far-fetched and not so fictional. >> no. and i'm not going to mention any names but in recent history, i think there has been this relationship played out a little bit between the u.s. attorney and the financial titans here in new york. >> investigation continues. >> so we hope -- we hope that much -- in fact, you led with
8:38 am
the way "homeland" dovetailed in a enout of the news. >> tell us what that conflict is between the u.s. attorney played by giomadi and you playing the businessman. >> you're playing the role of who is bigger. just saying. >> there is only one winner! you're right. you're right to say that it's kings in their kingdoms. it's chiefs and this is about power. it's power politics. it's about wealth. power. and what are these guys prepared to do to retain that power? and also, you know, it is an entertaining piece. >> it is. >> it is about these two guys slugging iout, two heavyweights slugging it out. it's also, you know, carefully just threaded in there, a little argument, a little discourse on libertarian versus regulation, new money versus old money. i'm a blue collar guy, come up from not very much humble
8:39 am
money and in some ways he represents the american idea. giamad ericks's character is ivy league and decided to took very little money to fight in the public's name. so he believes i'm doing wrong things. i think he should state out of my turf. >> it opens with a kinky sex scene. >> i knew you were going to watch the show. >> i'm not getting hooked on another drama. it started with that, and he said, there you go. i want to talk about your accent. how did you decide which new york accent you were going to do? >> generous of you. as long as i have some kind of new york accent. >> you do. >> we wanted it to be -- look. when i first took it, i thought, great i can do my job and bada, bada boom and it would be raunchy and fantastic and doing this the whole time using my hands a lot.
8:40 am
half a day and brian and david, the show's creators, took me to one side and said, this is fine, but it's not our show. so this guy is from yonkers, okay? so in the end, i decided the rhythms and the emphasis the way new york speaks with that and emphatic quality with pace and was the most important thing to latch on to, so i hope i've found that. >> andrew ross is a friend of a lot of people on this show. he did what? he wrote? >> andrew is a cocreator of the show and coexecutive producer. he gave access because of his ties with the financial journalists and "the new york times." he had access to all of these guys. so it allowed brian and david to go and sit down with these guys and talk with them and create friendships, and use them as source material. >> are you going to be the next james bond? >> no.
8:41 am
kill you. >> would you like to? would you like that job? i think you would be great at it. >> james bond? >> yes. >> that is the multimillion dollar question. >> no. come on. you'd love to be james bond. >> look. when you're growing up as a kid, you know, if someone said to you would you like to be james bond? you would love to say you'd love for it to happen and would i ruin one of my heroes by playing it? >> i guess we will have to stay tuned. >> we and i
