museum, accidentally punching a hole in a centuries old painting worth more than a million dollars. why he's now learning the art of being just a little more careful. today, tuesday, august 25th, 2015. good morning, everyone. welcome to "today." 7:00 a.m. on the west coast on a tuesday. matt just watched that video like this. a little cringy. >> i can hear the parent, you must be mistaken? i don't have a son. if i did, he would be grounded right now. >> he wouldn't be carrying a cup or something at the heart museum. >> it's terrible. >> more on that video. we want to get right to our top story breaking right now. this rebound happening on wall street at this hour in the wake of monday's roller coaster ride. so what is driving the upswing now? jim cramer, hoh of mad money at the stock exchange this morning.
7:02 am
good morning to you. >> good morning, savannah. >> happy to see the numbers go up. does this mean crisis over, go about your business, or could we see more wild swings? >> it would be super to say we have seen the worst, but we do tend to have snapbacks after three really horrible days. that's been the history of the market. don't get overconfident. this is a longer slog. we're bouncing in part because china made it so that they're a little more liquid. that's not enough. i like to see some stability for a couple days. please take it easy and don't make any big moves in buying today. i would rather have people who spent too much money borrowing money to do selling. that would be more mogical. >> we learned that china is the real driver of this downturn we have seen in global markets in the last few days. as you say, the government has taken some action, but fundamentally, nothing has changed about the slump china is in. >> no, not at all. i think what has to happen there, it looks like they're going to get away from the propping up of stocks, which is what they have been doing.
7:03 am
maybe put money to work in the actual economy. but you know, this is a long day. i think we had a lot of damage done, a lot of people just very scared. i say do nothing. stay put. there's nothing to do. don't panic. and don't buy. >> jim, when you say that, i really believe you. let me ask you about the federal reserve in this country because that sands some of the plains of this as well. the fed was hinting perhaps it's time for us to raise interest rates, and that really, i guess, exacerbated what we saw in the market. >> boy, are you ever right. we have different people from the federal reserve saying different things. some are saying that they're kind of happy with the way things are. i'm not happy with the way things are. i think what's important is that the federal reserve come out and say they're on hold. one of the reasons why i'm not confident in this rally is what happens if a federal reserve official says everything is good, we can raise rates. everything will be repealed? they should be quiet and let things out asand federal reserv
7:04 am
chair woman janet yellen said we'll put things on hold. >> yesterday, she didn't say anything, right? >> no, where in the world was janet yellen was the game we were playing. >> that's how you have your fun, jim, at the stock exchange. thank you very much. >> i love the fact that you wrote your notes for a story on the stock market on a pad that says welcome to crazytown. >> it's a little appropriate. >> that's perfect. all right, let's turn to the presidential race this morning. a couple big stories there. signs that vice president biden is inching closer to a run on the democratic side, while republicans donald trump and jeb bush trade new jabs. we'll get to that in a moment. first, let's head to the white house and peter alexander. hi, peter. good morning. >> hey, matt. good morning to you. aides within the white house have consistently said that the vice president has earned the right to take all the time he needs to consider a 2016 run. and overnight, one senior democratic source tells cnn president obama gave biden his blessing at their weekly lunch
7:05 am
yesterday to run if he would like. a spokesperson for biden tells me the sources are basically speculating about something they say they know nothing about. this morning, the buzz about a possible biden bid is building. the latest leak that the vice president will reportedly huddle privately with top democratic donors at his residence after labor day, adding to the drum beat that began with the vp's not so secret weekend lunch with elizabeth warren. who would the president back? his vice president or former secretary of state? press secretary josh earnest said the president respects and admires hillary clinton, but heaped braise on biden. >> there is probably no one in american politics today who has a better understanding of exactly what is required to mount a successful national presidential campaign. >> later, earnest added to the intrigue. >> i wouldn't rule out the possibility of an endorsement in the democratic primary. >> what would a biden/clinton showdown look like?
7:06 am
they have parted ways on national security. secretary of state clinton pushed for more aggressive military actions in afghanistan, libya, and syria. while biden was more cautious. the biggest split, the osama bin laden raid. clinton said she pushed forward, but biden's acknowledged he initially thought it was too big of a gamble. >> if they get get into the race together, you can see this becoming a defining point objudgment, on presidential judgment. >> those messages disappear all by themselves. >> meanwhile, republicans aren't letting up on clinton. today, releasing this new snapchat style video mocking her handling of the e-mail controversy. still, clinton's not backing down. picking up the pace of her campaign, leaving her hamptons vacation tomorrow for a swing through the midwest. first stop, iowa. and biden is said to have met with two of obama's most trusted advisers at his residence last night. only a small percentage of obama's fund-raisers in 2012
7:07 am
have already mitted to bundling large sums of money for the clinton campaign. >> take me inside the briefing room yesterday when josh earnest was being so complimentary about the vice president. was there any surprise among the kind of seasoned reporters. >> >> it was diffinaefinitely striking. josh earnest anticipated these questions. he brought notes. he said the president credits biden's wisdom, counsel, leadership, for helping him get so much done over the last seven years. i spoke to several of the president's top aides who say there's great affection for the vice president. they would like to support biden, like to see him end his career on a high note, and there are concerns as well over whether he would win. >> thank you, peter. >> as you mentioned, bitter rivalry between jeb bush and donald trump is intensifying. chris jansing is in texas with that part of the story this morning. dpoom to you.
7:08 am
>> good morning, savannah. i'm standing at the epicenter of this escalating immigration battle, the border between the u.s. and mexico. jeb bush came to south texas with a new strategy to punch back against attacks from donald trump, and show skeptical republicans he's tough enough to beat the billionaire front-runner. jeb bush in his home state of texas, taking shots at donald trump over his promise to build a beautiful wall. >> you have to have a much deeper strategy than just building a fence. >> hours before, trump had already launched a pre-emptive strike. >> bush, by the way, attacked me in a very modest way. he's a low-energy person, so when he attacks, he attacks with low energy. >> trump's trouncing of the gop field in recent polls has pumped bush up. >> this is ludicrous. >> a more combative bush, dismissing questions in both languages. about his use of a term some immigrants consider offensive. anchor babies. >> i think we need to take a step back and chill out a little bit as it relates to the
7:09 am
political correctness. >> that sounded a lot like trump, and so did this. >> you might want to read my book, immigration wars, which i published four years ago. >> president obama, secretary kerry, i highly think you should read this book quickly. >> and while bush was meeting with local officials, team trump was posting this 2013 matt lauer interview with bush's mom. >> would you like to see him run? >> no. i really don't. i think it's a great country. there are a lot of great families. there's other people out there that are very qualified, and we've had enough bushes. >> have you seen the instagram put out of your mother where she said we've had enough bushes. >> i don't follow the instagram feeds from donald trump. >> as bush and trump touted their differences, hillary clinton put out her own immigration ad, lethally suggesting they're just alike. >> most of the other candidates are just trump without the pizzazz or the hair.
7:10 am
>> this morning, the bush campaign is confirming that they are doing some budget cutbacks, not because they say of fund-raising but because they always intended to be lean, but truth is donald trump's staying power is making all the republicans sit up and take notice that this campaign could be longer, tougher, and more expensive than they originally planned. matt, savannah. >> just at the beginning. chris, thank you very much. in the meantime, the racing world is mourning the loss of popular indy car driver justin wilson. the 37-year-old died last night a day after he was struck in the head by some debris from another driver's crash. today, national correspondent craig melvin has more on that. good morning to you. >> matt, good morning. that tragic accident happened just two days ago behind me here at the pocono raceway in pennsylvania. justin wilson was 6'4" tall. he was the tallest driver in indy sport racing. he was also soft-spoken. this morning, the racing
7:11 am
community and fans alike are mourning the loss of this gentle giant, as he was known. a young life cut short. tributes are pouring in this morning for late indy car driver justin wilson. >> great guy. you know, one of the few if only guys that really was a friend among everyone in the paddock. >> his family calling him a loving father and devoted husband to his wife, julia, and their two daughters. his younger brother fellow indy car driver stephan wilson tweeting, i often told him i just want to grow up to be half the man he is. that will make me a pretty good man. >> justin's elite ability to drive a race car was matched by his awaunwavering kindness, karngt, and humility. >> the 37-year-old england native died monday night one day after crashing at a race at the pocono raceway in pennsylvania. the fatal chain of events started when another driver lost control of his car, crashing
7:12 am
into the wall. seconds later, the nose cone, a heavy piece of debris from the front of the other car, struck wilson's head as he drove by. >> that is -- if that is the nose of the car, that's a very, very heavy, thick object. >> wilson was knocked unconscious. seconds later driving into the wall. >> oh, into the wall goes justin wilson. >> medical teams rushed immediately to treat him, but he entered a coma. nbc leigh diffey called sunday's race. >> he really understood how the game, so to speak, worked. that's why the gravity is so big. his loss will impact so many. but to me personally, i'll really miss him. >> wilson's tragic death is the second in indy car in four years. fellow british driver dan withhelden d enweldon dies of severe head injuries in a race. mario andretti spoke out about the safety of the sport just before wilson's crash. >> the sport, actually, we have
7:13 am
reached a point that as safe as you could possibly make it. on the other side, it's still a work in progress. >> justin wilson was well liked. he was well respected by all accounts, he was one of the most popular drivers in this sport. no word yet on the memorial services. the last race happens this weekend. after all of that, a lot of folks surmise that the conversation will then turn to how to make the sport safer. keep in mind, the drivers in indy, largely unprotected. those cockpits are open despite the fact they're wearing helmets and their cars themselves approach speeds of nearly 200 miles per hour. matt, savannah. >> that piece of debris could have landed anywhere and it landed in the worst possible place. >> absolutely. another story we're following, learning more about what's next for the heroes who stopped a gunman from attacking a crowded train to paris as a fifth passenger is now being
7:14 am
recognized for his bravery. kelly cobiella is following the story. >> good morning. we're expecting to hear from the french prosecutor on any possible charges against the suspect within the next hour. meantime, here in germany, airman spencer stone has been at the landstuhl medical center. he has been seen by doctors. they expect him to make a full recovery from the bad gash on his hand. another american being treated in france is also improving. a man whose bravery nearly cost him his life. a hero's welcome for spencer stone and alek skarlatos. an impromptu honor guard. more than 200 airmen and their families cheering them on at ramstein air base. anthony sadler was on the red carpet for "straight out of compton" in paris last night and spoke briefly. >> two days ago, we were just on the train. two days later, all this has happened. pretty crazy. i return back to california
7:15 am
tomorrow, so that's next for me. >> as more details emerge about the bravery of another train passenger, french american mark moogalian, a musician and academic who confronted the gunman moments before the americans disarmed him, tried to warn other passengers and was shot. his wife, telling the story on french radio. he looked at me and said i'm hit, his wife said. i saw the blood. i was so scared he was going to die. the bullet went through mark's back and out his neck. spencer stone, his own thumb almost severed, kept mark alive. >> found what i thought to be the artery, pushed down, and the bleeding stopped. so i said thank god and held that position until the paramedics got there. >> mark's sister paying tribute. >> it was very overwhelming, one to realize our brother had been shot and we almost lost him, but to realize what he did, how he stepped in without even giving it a thought, we couldn't be more proud.
7:16 am
>> moogalian recovering in a french hospital, will also receive a medal of honor. and the accolades and tributes keep pouring in. there's even talk of a parade in sacramento, these three friends all have tied to the west coast. >> wow. i think it's in order. kelly, absolutely. >> can't even describe the bravery of these guys. >> and the instincts just kicking in. an amazing story. makes us proud. >> tamron is here with a story out of a college that's going to make a lot of people upset. >> a fraternity at old dominion university has been suspended amid controversy over some sexually suggestive banners hanging from an off-campus house. jacob has the story. >> welcome signs at american colleges are not unusual this time of year. but many find these banners at old dominion university downright offensive, asking parents to drop off their freshman daughters for a good time, adding go ahead and drop off mom, too. at ohio state university,
7:17 am
banners proclaim one campus house as daughter day care, adding, dads, we'll take it from here. >> we're not trying to cause having or stir up trouble. we're trying to have a fun time. >> seems kind of condescending to say they're going to be the babysitters, as if we need someone to watch over us. >> social media erupted with responses like, that odu frat proved that college does not make all boys smarter. the president of old dominion university says there is zero tolerance on this campus for sexual assault and sexual harassment. >> the actions taken by a few individuals this week certainly do not represent the position of the university. >> the national fraternity suspended the local chapter, calling the banners derogatory and demeaning. after the back to school prank that's failed to make anyone feel welcome. jacob ras cone, nbc. >> help has arrived, some of it coming from the other side of the world. dozens of firefighters from

7:32 am
>> certainly a smile, but i left under the impression that they did have sex. >> eventually told me that in his words that he [ bleep ] her. >> what does that word mean to you? >> i assume it would mean they had sexual relations. >> kun class mate, a minor whose identity we're not revealing said labrie was even more direct. >> a private conversation between me and owen where i askask ed him if they had sex, and he told me they did. >> he told police he never had intercourse with the girl. one of the nation's most elite boarding schools under scrutiny as testimony reveals the senior salute where older students ask out younger ones before graduate, sometimes for sex. st. paul's said the allegations aren't indicative of the school, but a juror said he learned of the senior salute in 2013.
7:33 am
>> were you aware of the practice or what was involved in the practicing of the senior salute? >> in relatively vague terms, yes. >> prosecutors alleged labrie had been plotting the encounter with a 15-year-old freshman for months. on a list of girls he wanted to pursue or slay. her name was in capital letters. labrie's attorney said crude messages to his friends does not mean he's guilty. his statements have been typical teenage statements, in mew view. with all the immaturities, imperfections, uncertainties that are reflected in teenagers. >> jay carney says his client still plans to testify. that could happen as early as today but probably tomorrow. he could be the only witness the defense calls to the stand. this entire case could hang on his words. >> gabe gutierrez, thank you very much. let's bring in leisha bloash li
7:34 am
"today's" legal analyst. let's start with owen labrie. he told police he didn't have sex with this underaged student. yet, the prosecution has called four former friends. they said he told them he had sex with her or they led them to believe he had sex with her. how damaging is that to the defense? >> pretty significant because these are his friends, and not just one, a group of them, and it's consistent with other evidence. his allegedly saying afterwards are you on birth control and her asking about condom use. >> is it also typical with teen behavior where guys brag about things they didn't do or embellish the facts? >> of course, standing alone, that would be helpful to the defense, but there is other evidence to corroborate. >> if matt says this is a case full of contradictions and the prosecution has to attend with an accuser who faced a withering prosecution. and they went point by point by her account, the fact she sent
7:35 am
back a flattering text, that she laughed uncomfortably, she told the school nurse the sex was consensual. how do you deal with that? >> there are inconsistency on both sides. her inconsistencies are more significant because the prosecution has the burden of proof. if she's not believed, there can't be a conviction. >> we were talking that the alleged victim remained in court during the testimony of these four young men and had to listen to accounts of this alleged sexual counter in sometimes demeaning language. is that unusual that she would be there for that. >> >> she has the right to be there and she decided to be there and she's been very emotional in court. you have to wonder if that has an effect on the jury. ultimately, i think they have a strong case for statutory rape against this young man. as to forcible rape, that's a tough one. >> they may rest, the prosecutors, and the defends is

talking about calling one witness, i guess the story does come down to his story and credibility, but what if jurors think that's all they got? >> most of the witnesses have already been called by the pr prosecuti prosecution. this is a young man, very intelligent. was admitted to harvard. he watched the entire trial. i'm going to assume he would do a good job on the stand. >> 11 men, 3 women on that jury. how might gender impact this verdict? >> you know, a lot of people say prosecutors say they prefer to have men on a jury in a rape case because women classically speaking are more tough on other women. i don't know if that's true or not. i think it ultimately comes down to the facts and the evidence, and unfortunately, the accuser's credibility. she has some tough issues that came out in cross-examination. >> lisa bloom, thank you very much. >> get a check of the weather now from al. >> thank you so much. we're watching changeable weather here along the eastern seaboard. front is going to cause

it's 8:44. it 's been 24 years since buzz bissinger shined a light on football in west texas. friday night lights was a book, movie and television series. buzz went back to visit six members of the panthers he originally profiled. he writes about the embassy appearance in a new edition of the book. buzz, good morning. nice to have you here. >> good morning. >> was it the plan always to go back on the 25th? >> it wasn't. often you do it by e-mail, phone. i wanted to see the kids face to face. it was an important part of my life. >> did you have expectations of what would have happened in the players' lives? >> some i could have predicted, some not. some of it's great to see them. in one case it was tragic. >> let's talk about the tragic case. miles was a star player but got injured in the preseason. >> right. >> what happened?
8:46 am
>> one of the reasons the books endured is because of miles. a black running back from the wrong side of town. not a lot of money. he was basically treated as a football animal. it was his only skill in life. when he got hurt before his senior season that was it. he was cast aside. he had no academics, no underpinnings. the result when i saw him was he's in prison. i have to say i wasn't surprised. >> does he talk about the days and being featured in the book? >> he talks about those days in a bittersweet way. he liked the book because the book was honest in terms of parents living through their kids. it's bittersweet. i think the movie -- you know, the exposure is a double-edged sword. you get the exposure but you are who you are. >> one of the guys you wrote about in the book, don billingsley, the renegade did drugs, drank alcohol. 25 years forward, how did he turn out?
8:47 am
>> he's done great. the worst barometer of future success is high school. i thought he would be road kill, the first to end up dead. don did get religion. had a close friend who committed suicide his freshman year in college and he woke up. he's now a health care consultant. he looks great. he's at his playing weight. it's unpredictable as to how the kids do. >> the public reacted in a positive way to what you wrote. i mentioned what it went on to become. the people in odessa had very, very mixed feelings about your finished product. >> right. >> they were not happy with the way you described their culture. >> right. >> the racial divide in town. >> correct. >> when you went back was the tension still there. >> there is slight tension. because of the movie they ignore me now. folks, the book came first. they ignore me but i'm going back to do the book tour. i had to cancel it 25 years ago
8:48 am
because of threats of bodily harm and two public venues wouldn't have me in odessa at a bookstore. they said, it's too can he recall. i will not take back a word of what i wrote. >> as i say it and now that i know you're going back, has the culture changed? you can say it before you book your flight. >> the culture has changed. winning creates obsession. they are no longer the winningest team in texas state history. there is not the fanaticism, but other places, not just in texas. all over the country. we care more and are more obsessed with sports in this country than ever before. it can be dangerous. >> one of my favorite books ever. i love your work. 25th anniversary edition of "friday night lights" available in stores today. up next, a special performance on the plaza. carole king live with the cast of the musical inspired by her life. but first on a
