7:26 am
120 ships passed by that route that time frame and not one of them stopped. >> reporter: early in the morning of november 28, 1980, one did. >> that tiny little peach dot is me. >> reporter: they were given the opportunity for a fresh start in the united states. never learning the name of the captain who made it possible by ordering the rescue. >> but for one man who said, stop, you know, save them. how could i go on enjoying all the benefits of my life, children, this house, my career and not acknowledge where it all began? >> reporter: it sparked in lauren a quest to find that man. one which has spread over decades. until one day, a name and a number landed in her in box. so she called.
7:27 am
>> look at you. >> reporter: it led to an emotional reunion. in lauren, a realization that stories of this captain and his crew's compassion along with others who did the same needed to be shared. lawrence has been recording her journey and hopes one day to create a documentary, not so much about her but the ones she called the real heros. in lauren's research, she's found many more than just that one captain who saved her family. in fact, she has found stories of thousands of others being saved, which is it another reason she wants to continue and do a documentary to tell the entire story. at 7:27, we have more ahead on today in the bay. coming up, we will take a closer look at mother teresa, now saint teresa's impact of helping the sick and poor and creating charities, including two right here in the bay area.
7:28 am
plus -- >> this is a much bigger thing than people realize. >> a billion dollar problem of stolen identities and stolen lives. you may think you have heard everything there is to hear about identity theft. but if you haven't heard this story, we will show you how identity theft could cost you. fighting to stay out of jail even if you did nothing wrong.
7:30 am

7:40 am
done everything she has been told to do to protect herself. what's the biggest frustration? >> getting help to get it resolved. so i don't are have to worry ab my credit score. i don't have to worry about getting arrested for something i didn't do. at some point, something needs to be done. >> an assembly member wants california state law to have more teeth as it were to go after those who would steal someone's identity. right now he says it doesn't do enough. nationwide, the secret service says they have handled more than 20,000 cases with an actual monetary loss of $1.2 billion. if you have a tip for our investigative unit, give us a call. it's just shy of 7:41. much more ahead. coming up, after a highly

7:45 am
(whispering) what are you doing up? (whispering) mom said i could have a midnight snack. well, i say it's late, and you need to go to bed. why? because i am the boss. you're not the boss, mom's the boss. well, technically, we are co-bosses. technically, mom's the boss. mmmm. shhh. the family favorite. yoplait.
7:46 am
marks the unofficial end of summer, the resumption of school labor day weekend traditionally marks the unofficial end of summer. it signals the official start of presidential campaigns. those first two events may still carry sway. but the presidential campaign has been in full swing for months. sort of feels like years.
7:47 am
larry gersten joins us. is this a trick, or is the campaign season lengthening? >> it's not your imagination. i promise you. the campaign season has become a campaign year, maybe even longer in many cases. as long as two years ago, serious candidates began putting to the campaign teams, trying out messages, meeting small groups of potential donors and collecting private poll results. this period is called the invisible primary. insiders know about it. most of us have felt particularly bombarded by the candidates for the past year or so at least. >> how has this transpired? isn't summer supposed to be quiet because of vacation and other factors that distract the public? >> politics, those lazy, crazy days of summer, there are yesterday songs and memories.
7:48 am
modern campaigns have become much more scientific. they are data driven, analytics, they are intelligence gathering. frankly, they're not for the casual candidate, not anymore. not somebody who wants to be whimsical. >> what caused the change? i would assume social media. you have a few other factors that have changed this. >> you touched on one. three big factors for sure have greatly influenced the elongation, the lengthening of the presidential campaign period. first, early voting. campaigns used to ramp for a month, six weeks before the election day. with voting by mail at early as late september and in some states early october in many more, all activities have been moved up. even presidential conventions this year occurred about a month earlier. just to deal with early voting. a second factor you touched on it, social media.
7:49 am
more than ever, candidates don't wait for their political parties to get out messages. they use facebook, twitter, blogs, all kinds of platforms to get out their messages. the feeling is the earlier a candidate frames his or her candidacy as well as that of the opponent, the earlier the voters' minds can be persuaded. we have seen a lot of this, particularly by hillary clinton this year. third, money and lots of it. a series of u.s. supreme court decisions have blown the lid off of campaign fund-raising limits. independent expenditure committees can raise as much money as they want with no maximum amount. we can expect campaigns, presidential campaigns this year, to raise at least 50% more than 2012. that means lots more advertising. by the way, hillary clinton has raised $500 million.
7:50 am
expects her campaign to raise $1 billion for this campaign. >> wow. that's a tremendous amount. now we have to just come to terms with it. presidential campaigns are permanent. they're permanent in our existence. what will that do to all of us, all the voters? >> that's the big question. that's the big question. does this massive exposure to politics, much of it nasty as we know, turn off the voters? or give the voters more to think about than ever before? more incentive to vote. could be a little of each. to those who are uncomfortable with politics -- we know these people. they could just as soon turn to other things as soon as they can in their lives. to those who are invested in the process, really think their vote may make a difference, they may be well pomore passionate than ever. regardless, back to the calendar, it may say summer is about over, but politics over the next two months will be --
7:51 am
>> nine more weeks, but who is counting? i have a marker on my calendar. >> we are. >> larry, as always, thank you. we have more ahead on today in the bay. coming up, comic book and super hero lovers swarming to san francisco this weekend. we will tell you what's bringing them all together. while temperatures will heat up over next week or so, it's cool right now. 40s in the north bay. we will talk about your labor day forecast and get you through the week ahead.
7:54 am
welcome back. 7:53 the time on your sunday morning. start you off with this shot from san jose. see the sun coming up over the mountains and fog out there. otherwise, we have sunny skies here in morning. temperatures right now in the 50s across the south bay. we're expecting to get up to 75 in san jose. today, we will see a cool morning with a comfortable afternoon. for labor day, another repeat performance of morning clouds with a few -- with temperatures -- a few spots that should warm into the 80s. the heat will build as we head toward the next couple of days. right now, it's comfortable. we have 40s in the north bay. 56 in the tri-valley. 66 in the city later on with a mild breeze there. 75 for the tri-valley and 76 for the south bay. look at the peninsula, 68 for today. chilly air across the bay area today. want to give you a quick check of the tropics. this is tropical storm lester. there's the big island, the
