landed in los angeles. incredibly, the pilot walked away. the crane caught fire and collapsed at a construction site in melbourne, australia. in washington, a portrait of president frank underwood from "house of cards" was unveiled. >> democracy is so overrated. how did i get elected? we got an army of people and women who left their kitchens. >> women leave their kitchens, irishmen leave their bottles of whiskey and italians leave their big bowl of pasta like their mama used to make. and jeb bush this morning. >> i congratulate my competitors remaining on the island. >> that's right. this election is like "survivor." but sadly, jeb did not run an "amazing race." he didn't have that "x-factor" and nothing short an "extreme

makeover" could make him win like his "big brother." "cbs this morning" brought to you by toyota, let's go places. nevada republicans will have their say today in the presidential race. four of the five gop candidates will be there today. they're racing to pick up last-minute support before tonight's caucuses. donald trump remains a heavy favorite. he leads the latest poll with 45% support. marco rubio's far behind with a narrow lead over ted cruz for second place. the cruz campaign is under heavy pressure after the candidate fired his chief spokesman. dean ren ynolds is in las vegas where trump and rubio are going after cruz. >> the three candidates have been hurling insults and sack sagss wi -- accusations with such veracity that all three are vying for first place but that

spot only belongs to one. >> we're going to win, go out tomorrow and vote! >> reporter: donald trump held a raucous caucusy rally monday night. >> you have a protester? get him the hell out. >> reporter: responding to several interruptions from protesters. >> like to punch him in the face, i'll tell you. >> reporter: by expressing nostalgia for a less genteel day. >> i love the old days. you know what they used to do to guys like that in a place like this, they'd be carried out on a stretcher, folks. >> reporter: despite a sizable lead here, trump is not letting up on his rivals, particularly ted cruz for his campaign tactics. >> this guy, cruz, lies more than any human being i have ever dealt with. he holes up the bible and he lies. this guy is sick. there's something wrong with this guy. >> reporter: accusations of underhandedness have dogged the cruz campaign for weeks. >> every single day something

comes out of the cruz campaign that's deceptive and untrue. >> reporter: on monday, cruz moved quickly to minimize additional fallout. >> this morning, i asked for rick tyler's resignation. >> reporter: forcing out his communications director after he shared this physician leading video on social media seemingly questioning marco rubio's faith. >> it turned out the news story he sent around was false. even if it was true, we are not a campaign that is going to question the faith of another candidate. >> reporter: and on the stum, the florida senator stressed his own electability over cruz and trump. >> i don't know how much you think they're funny or interesting they may sound, if we nominate someone that 40% to 50% of our party can't stand, we are going to lose. >> reporter: responding to a question last night, senator cruz said he would hunt down and deport millions of illegal immigrants and not let them back into this country. it's a direct appeal to the republican base, which he

desperately needs to arouse. >> john dickerson is in washington. good morning, john. >> good morning, charlie. >> a lot of specifics and generals. let me start with the specific. do all these questions about trust and problems with his campaign spokesman hurt ted cruz significantly? >> well, yes. i mean, because it gets in the way of what he's trying to say. and he's a little on his heels coming out of south carolina. that was a state that had an electorate that set up nicely for ted cruz and he lost by 11 points to donald trump. he needs to do something to change his approach to donald trump. just as he's trying to do that, he's dealing with accusations. there's an accumulation of trouble from these accusations or he wouldn't have had to fire his top spokesperson. this isn't just this one off, it's because there have been a number of accusations. >> marco rubio makes a point in his sound bite there that if donald trump can't get elected because he only has 30% or 40% from the republican party. is trump becoming unstoppable

and, therefore, the party either does something now or it's too late? >> well, yes, rubio is talking about a theory a lot of us have had for a while, there's a ceiling on donald trump's support. he can never get higher than a send point. that may not be true in the end. there may be a band wagon effect. as trump wins, people want to be with a winner marco rubio has to make that case. as we've seen donald trump, you have to work harder to knock him back. so for marco rubio, he's going to have to do more than simply say i'm the more electable candidate. >> there are reports that the gop establishment is urging john kasich to drop out. do you think that's true? >> well, there has been -- the question is who is the establishment? and do they have any power? and there are some people who would like a single alternative to donald trump and there's a little bit of that noise. but i don't think it's enough to get kasich out of the race. i think that's going to have to happen when results come in. >> how important is second place

tonight for marco rubio and ted cruz? >> it's important to be able to say that i am the alternative to donald trump. but it has to be a close second. and we'll just have to see if that actually happens. >> all right, john dickerson, thank you. we'll talk to you a little bit later on. hillary clinton and bernie sanders will appear at a town hall tonight in south carolina. ahead of saturday's democratic primary. both candidates won 51 delegates from iowa, new hampshire and nevada. hillary clinton has won nearly all of the super delegates so far. and when you put them together, she has 502 delegates to 70 for bernie sanders. the vermont senator is already looking ahead to super tuesday. he rallied yesterday in massachusetts. one of the 11 states voting a week from today. our digital network, cbsn will have live coverage of the nevada republican caucuses. watch it online at cbsnews.com/live, on the cbs news app or devices like roku, apple tv and amazon fire will

faces 16 felonies including six counts of murder. authorities are still trying to determine the motive but say dalton admitted his involvement in the shooting. >> this was not a -- just a momentary lapse. there is videotapes of these incidents as he walked up on these people and shot them. >> my daughter is not dead. she is alive and she is fighting for her life. >> reporter: 14-year-old abigail was the youngest person shot. she remains on a ventilator. >> she was a vie bran the, beautiful young lady. neither did her grandmother or those other victims. >> reporter: when the rampage first unfolded saturday, tammy george was at home and thought she heard fireworks. >> this is your closet? >> yes. >> reporter: i see the bullet holes in the bottom way down there. she walked outside to find her neighbor tianna caruthers. she survived possibly saving the

lives of several children who were with her, telling them to run. >> i think she went mama bear. she protected them. >> reporter: authorities recovered the handgun used in the shootings and found a large number of firearms here at dalton's home. >> i used to go over there to his property and talk. >> reporter: james block is dalton's neighbor and friend of 17 years. >> i never ever heard him talk anything about a lot of guns or >> reporter: it's got to be tough for his wife and kids. >> i pray for them. i'm sure it's devastating. >> reporter: it gets to you, too. >> yeah. >> reporter: dalton's expected back in court next week. his family in a statement expressed condolences for the victims saying there are no words which can express our shock and disbelief. as for abigail koff, her parents say she is continuing to express movement, wiggling her toes and squeezing hands. >> that's incredible. >> thanks, anna.

good news. bill gates is backing the government in its fight with apple. he says the sycip case is a limited and unique case for information. the stance is a break from his technology industry piers. i asked him to expand on this fight on my pbs program. >> in this circumstance, apple, and their being able to destroy whatever they create after they do this for the government one time only, should they do that? >> well, in every case up till now when the government's come in and said what's the banking information, you know, banks like to keep their customers' information private. but no bank has ever deified the government. i think apple at the end they're just forcing a complete judicial process. i don't think apple is saying when the court, you know, say it goes to the supreme court, i

don't think they're saying they'll defy the government. >> no, they're not. they're saying right now they're not going to do it so it will be appealed to a district court appeals court and the supreme court. i'm asking you what would you do if you were the executive? would you do the same thing tim cook has done? >> i think they're saying, hey, as a society we think this discussion of safeguards is important. i don't disagree with that. >> nobody disagrees with that. >> at the end of the day we want a government that has this ability and we trust it to use that visibility on our behalf. >> max levgine said apple should offer the fbi the exact data but they should not offer them a master key. >> yes, that would solve this

particular case. >> in our next hour we talk to apple's lawyer, former united states solicitor general ted olson and find out why one of the country's most respected legal names is defending the tech giant. that's ahead. >> he didn't want to give a specific answer to that. >> he was not. he wanted to see it go through the process. >> i heard that. you asked it directly. >> and numerous times. >> yes, yes, a couple of times. >> i like him a lot. >> he likes you, too. republican senators meet to gear up for the open seat on the supreme court. a new poll finds 56% of americans want the senate to hold a hearing and vote on president obama's replacement for antonin scalia. jan, good morning. >> good morning. this is going to be a huge fight. but one thing is for sure, a lost of these arguments you have heard before they were made by

the other side and republicans did get that big boost yesterday from someone you might not expect. >> action on a supreme court nomination must be put off until after the election campaign is over. >> reporter: that's then senate judiciary committee chairman joe biden suggested in 1992 he was fine with blocking any election year nominees when president h.w. bush was in the white house. >> the majority of his predecessors and not name a nominee until after the november election is completed. >> reporter: the current judiciary committee chair, republican chuck grassley immediately agreed to what he called the biden rules. >> in his heart of hearts, he understands why this senate must do what he said it must do in 1992. >> reporter: with president obama poised to move the court to a liberal majority,

republicans are vowing to block any nominee. democrats like senate minority leader harry reid are questioning their motives. >> this is a full-blown effort to delegitimize president obama. >> reporter: democrats like reid and even then senator obama have tried to block republican nominees when they controlled the senate. and republicans in the senate minority cried foul. >> any president, judicial nominees after full debate deserve a simple up or down vote. >> reporter: here's senate majority leader mitch mcconnell yesterday. >> it is today the american people who are best positioned to help make this important decision. >> reporter: now, when biden made that so-called biden rule, yes, he says that he really left the door open for a compromise, in a statement he said he was talking about a, quote, hypothetical vacancy to the supreme court. the white house says then

senator obama regrets his vote to filibuster justice alito. memories are long in the u.s. sena senate and republicans are not ready to forget. the u.s. and russia agreed to a cessation of hostilities starting saturday. the agreement does not include isis or the al qaeda affiliate al nusra front. elizabeth palmer is in damascus. good morning. >> reporter: the striking thing about this plan is the size of loopholes. for a start, the syrian army directed by russia said it will continue to fight isis and the al qaeda-linked group al nusra, which means basically the bombing and battle will continue across huge areas of northern syria. secondly, the syrian army says it's going to carry on fighting any group it designates as terrorists, which basically

gives them free range to attack anybody they want, including groups backed by the united states. thirdly, there's no provision, at least yet, for observers. and realistically it's far too late in the game to get credible monitors out in the field, especially on such a dangerous battlefield. i've just been talking to a syrian general who tells me that he has personally no appetite for a cease-fire. he says his men are on a roll, they're winning ground and don't want to lose momentum. that's an opinion you'll hear reflected among civilians, including here in damascus. >> fascinating reporting. thank you to elizabeth palmer in damascus. president obama will speak shortly about a new proposal to close the guantanamo bay prison. it is expected to face strong opposition on capitol hill. 91 prisoners are now held at the

prison. the plan is to transfer 35 of them to another country in the next year. the remaining 56, including 9/11 mastermind khalid shaikh mohammed would be held by military guards. three u.s. sites are recommended for holding them in south carolina, kansas and in colorado. there was a literal curtain of secrecy as bill cosby's wife broke her silence under a court order. ahead, what attorneys hope to learn from camille cosby as,,

♪ good morning to you, our viewers in the west. is it tuesday, february 23rd, 2016. welcome back to "cbs this morning." there is more real news ahead, including a surprising look at millennial voters, why they don't like corporations or washington either but look forward to the future. but first, here's today's "eye opener at 8." all three of them are vying for first place but that spot apparently belongs to only one. >> just vote, just vote, because people say i don't want to give you an excuse, what the hell is caucus. nobody even knows what it means. >> how important is second place tonight? >> it's important to be able to say that i am the alternative to donald trump. took a judge nearly ten minutes to read all the charges

against dalton here at the courthouse to which he did not enter a plea. the striking thing about this plan is the size of the loophole. the president outlined his plan to close the guantanamo bay prison. many years it's been clear that the detention facility does not advance our national security. he didn't seem to want to give a specific answer to that. you asked it directly. >> and numerous times. >> yes, yes. >> fox news on thursday praised tim allen for being, quote, very brave and coming out of the closet as being a republican unlike his cowardly neighbor wilson. where do you stand? this morning's "eye opener at 8" is presented by nationwide. i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. donald trump leads the

republican caucuses. ted cruz shook up his campaign monday forcing communications director rick tyler to resign. he shared a video on social media. it falsely showed marco rubio dismissing the bible. rubio said the video was nothing new for the cruz campaign. >> it's incredibly disturbing. you have to be seeing this now. it's every single day something comes out of the cruz campaign that's deceptive and untrue and in this case goes after my faith. >> ted cruz says he holds his campaign to the highest standards of integrity. his spokesman made a grave error in judgment. cruz spoke about immigration, saying he plans to go further than his rivals. we will know the day someone overstays their visa and be able to send law enforcement to apprehend them and send them home. .biggest difference between donald trump, marco rubio and myself is that both donald trump and marco rubio would allow those 12 million people to become u.s. citizens.

donald says once he deports them he'd let them back in as citizens. i will not. >> donald trump has also said he would leave a, quote, door for deportees for them to come back legally. apple is ramping up its legal battle with the government over unlocking the iphone belonging to one of the san bernardino terrorists. the company tapped renowned attorney ted olson. he's also the former solicitor general of the united states. he's with us from washington. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> so here, everybody's talking about security versus privacy here. security at argument of the fbi, privacy the argument of apple. people are suggesting strongly you can make this a one-time case. you heard it on the program this

morning, make it a one-time case, apple would do it in the privacy of their own lab. you're not offering a master key to all iphone phones. >> that's a totally bogus argument. the government knows it and their surrogates know it. there's nothing to stop this government or another government from doing the same thing tomorrow or the next day or next week. in fact, in answer to you, charlie, i think it was last week the district attorney of new york said that he had 175 phones that he was anxious to try this same technique to get into those phones to get april toll redesign its product, break down the security, abuse the trust of tens of millions of people who invested their faith and trust in apple. the government is going to do this again and again and the argument that this just do it once, just violate your principles this one time, you'll never hear from us again, it is totally bogus.

>> why are you calling it violating your principles? apple has been cooperating with law enforcement for years. the case that law enforcement is making today including by john miller and the nypt chief, william bratton today is that until 17 months ago, apple had been cooperating with law enforcement, giving the key essentially to solve cases, the master key on drugs, kidnapping, murder and terrorism charges and that there were no documented instances of this getting into the hands of hackers. what has changed? why is apple making this new position? >> apple has cooperated in the past and apple has cooperated in connection with this case. what has happened here is that the government is not asking for the key to the cell phone. the government is asking for apple to design a new cell phone, use new code to break down security systems that are built into this particular iphone to protect its security and protect the trust of tens of

millions of its customers. it wants a different iphone. it wants it disabled, a defective product, so the government can get into it. it is asking apple that the government can script its engineers to design a different, flawed product so it can get into this phone and there's no stopping this government, state governments, foreign governments from using the same technique to get into cell phones over and over again throughout the world. it will break the system that apple carefully designed to protect the trust of its customers. >> why is that? i mean, because you think that every case now will be forcing apple to open up their iphone? >> sure, because -- >> you say somebody in china says we have an issue, the chinese government says we have an issue, that will force april toll do the same thing for their phone that it did for the phone involved in the terrorist case? >> well, sure, charlie. you asked that question of the district attorney in new york and he said i'm just anxious to

use the technique again and again for 175 phones. what's to stop the u.s. attorney in milwaukee or the district attorney in chicago from doing the same thing? and if apple submits, by designing a defective phone, after it spent so much of its resources to develop a secure phone that would protect the privacy of its customers, then that will happen again and again. >> ted, with that legal argument are you suggesting that every iphone that the iphone that's not on the ios 8 operating system is a defective phone? >> absolutely not. it protects the security and trust and privacy of the people that own those phones and entrust that information. the government is trying to change that design. they're saying go in and redesign the phone so that we can get into it. and make it an unsecure phone. >> we insist they say one time only. >> they say one time only but

are they saying that we won't go in tomorrow? in "the new york times" article by bratton and miller today in "the new york times," they are saying this is not just one case. this is -- they cite an example in new orleans where they say the same technique would be used. baton rouge. >> let's think about the human life here for a second. john miller raised a really interesting point on this program last week. apple is trying to protect its customers. what about the victims in san bernardino, in paris, who died with iphones in their pockets? they're your customers, too. don't they have a right to live? and if apple has the opportunity to provide information that could prevent terrorist attacks, shouldn't they -- don't they have an obligation to those people as well? >> we have a constitution and we have civil liberties in this country. terrorists want to take that away from us. by attacking the safety of american citizens. apple is very sensitive to the concerns of terrorism, so am i.

it is very, very, very important. but the civil liberties that are written into our constitution are what the terrorists want to take away from us. >> then as a citizen -- >> privacy, liberty and safety are very important to all of our citizens and if the government comes to you and says compromise your principles, compromise the constitutional stands that you're taking just for this one case or for the next case or the next case, the terrorists have succeeded. so it is very, very important that we root out terrorism and protect ourselves but it's very important that we not forfeit our fundamental rights in doing so. >> ted, you have seen tragedy in your own life from terrorism. you know that if in fact information is in a phone that most american citizens that had to do with some kind of attack against america, most american citizens would like the government, the fbi, to have access to that information. and that's what it comes down to, not civil liberties but the capacity of the u.s. government to thwart a terrorist attack. >> the capacity of the united

states government legally and constitutionally to thwart terrorism attacks. i was in the justice department at 9/11 when that tragedy took place. we talked at great length that time. we must fight terrorism and we must do everything we possibly can to use techniques to listen in on terrorists and find out what they're up to. but we must not violate that line that is our constitutional principles, because if we do, we are not america anymore and the terrorists have succeeded. we must do everything we can but we must obey the law, must obey the constitution. must be faithful to our principles. >> okay. >> ted olson, great to have you here this morning. thank you so much. >> it's a great pleasure. thank you. an eye opening survey reveals the views of america's young voters, ,,

in our "morning rounds" february is american heart month. each year more than 600,000 americans die of heart disease. that's one in every four deaths. heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women. a growing number of people are now living with artificial hearts while waiting for a heart transplant. but ben tracy shows us how one day, a permanent fake heart may beat inside a person's chest and make donations unnecessary. >> there you go, there you go. now we're rocking and rolling. >> reporter: you wouldn't think there was anything wrong with lance white. >> yes! >> reporter: until you notice that backpack, those tubes and that unusable sound. >> are you aware of that sound

at all at this point? >> no. >> is that just white noise to you? >> it's white noise to me. when people tell me about it, i hear it. >> reporter: it's the sound of his heart beating. >> and the artificial heart is right here. >> reporter: well, not his heart exactly. the one he was born with had to be removed when he had heart failure at age 47. he now has a total artificial heart beating inside his body. >> do you feel any less human knowing that you're carrying around a machine that is pumping a fake heart inside your body? >> you do. in the beginning you do. if it stops, you know, i'm in trouble. i don't exist anymore. >> patients will have this backpack. >> reporter: this is what it looks like. two art efficient ventricles are implanted in the chest. they are attached to a set of tubes connected to an external battery carried around in a backpack. it pumps about 130 bursts of air per minute, replicating a rapid heartbeat. that noise is always there.

>> when you're as young as i am, you're like okay, i don't want to turn the switch off. i have a lot more life to live. i have young kids. i want to see them grow up and finish school and have kids. >> reporter: he's one of about 2,000 people worldwide who have ever received a total artificial heart. >> we put this in place because otherwise death would occur within 24 to 48 hours. >> reporter: dr. francisco aribia is a cardiac surgeon. he said the problem is the lack of donor hearts. as many as 100,000 people in the u.s. need new hearts but last year only about 4,000 made the wait list and little more than 2500 received a transplant. >> it's a matter of demand and supply. we use an artificial heart to give patient the time to be able to wait for the correct donor. >> reporter: lance has been waiting for almost two years. >> i'm hoping this year will be my year. patience is a virtue.

>> reporter: companies such as s syn cardia or working on a heart for widespread use. it's no easy task. our hearts pump about 2,000 gallons of blood every day and service more than 60,000 miles of blood vessels. >> how much of a game-changer would it be to have an artificial heart that would be permanent? >> it we can develop a total artificial heart that is completely internal, that would be a true game-changer. >> reporter: lance will hopefully get a donor heart soon. he and his wife, lisa, want this load off his back. >> what's the first thing you want to do once he no longer has that backpack attached to him? >> i want to put a basketball in his hand and take him to the gym. >> because he hasn't been able to do that? no. >> and that means a lot to him? >> it does. >> reporter: but lance has something else on his mind. >> i think more about wanting to

meet the family if i'm ever allowed to do that of the person who was able to donate the heart and thank them and then let them see who i am and what they have done for me and my family. that's what i think about. that's what i think about. >> reporter: for "cbs this morning," ben tracy, los angeles. >> incredible. to think that that's the future. >> i believe one day he'll be able to go to the gym and they're going to make it so that that backpack will be so much smaller. it's interesting to see how it's all involved. >> or be inside of him. >> even better. it is a dog eat dog battle out there to be the most popular kid in the class. also known as the most popular breed. next, who came out on the very top? you're watching "cbs this morning." cbs "morning rounds" sponsored by silk. silk helps you bloom.

welcome back to "cbs this morning." coming up in this half hour for you, young voters' goals and their expectations. cbs news contributor frank luntz, there he is, is in our toyota green room enjoying our breakfast we provide in the morning with the croissants and the fruit. why a huge majority are optimistic about their future. we go all out. >> and comic matt bellisi is also in studio 57 for his first tv interview. he stars in the series wine about it. we'll see how much research he does for his intoxicating role. >> right now it's time to show you some of this morning's

headlines. "the washington post" reports on a popular record producer responding to allegations of abuse by pop star kesha. we reported how a judge denied the singer's request to be released from a recording contract. she claims dr. luke abused her sexually, physically and emotionally. dr. luke said people are commenting without knowing the facts. he called the accusations horrendous and untrue. dr. luke explicitly wrote i didn't rape kesha and i've never had sex with her. we reached out to kesha and her team about the new tweets and free. amazon hopes to offset rising shipping costs by nudging people to join prime. and "usa today" shows a

levitating basketball player. he's suspended with his arms by his side. people wondered what he was doing in that moment. the team released video to squash rumors he was a jedi. tillman said he went for a rebound but stopped when the ball did not come his is a hugr in this year's presidential race, but a new survey this morning finds america's youth is remarkably hopeful. 88% of people ages 18 to 26 say they are optimistic about their personal future, but the rest of their views may surprise you. the results come from a poll sponsored by the social media app snapchat. republican strategist and cbs news contributor frank luntz conducted that poll and is here to talk about the results only on "cbs this morning." frank, good morning. >> good morning. >> are you surprised by the results? >> the one that surprised me the most is that 75% of these young

people 18 to 26 think that they're going to do better than their parents. only 25% of their parents think that their kids are going to do better than them. so obviously one generation is looking at the future completely incorrectly and i don't know who it is. you have now a situation where they believe that the country is failing but they're going to succeed. we've not had that situation. and the polling that's been done for the last 50 years, young people's attitudes, they have related themselves to where the country is going. now they believe that they're going to be okay, but not necessarily america. >> is it because they believe in themselves? >> they absolutely believe in themselves. and they have different priorities than their patients. work life balance matters to these people. they also truly prioritize personal freedom and opportunity more so than this collectivism. and yet they also back bernie sanders for president. so these contradictions that are going on. >> but, frank, what's wrong with

a work life balance? >> there's nothing wrong with it but don't expect to do as well financially if you're committed to 40 hours a week rather than 65 hours a week. >> whoa. >> whoa. >> or 75 hours a week. >> 120. >> it's not a segment about work life. >> two questions about politics. number one, what politician do they like and why? and secondly, how influential will they be in this presidential race? >> barack obama used to be their number one politician. and now it's bernie sanders. he's even done better than obama. they would rather -- they would vote for sanders, they would love to have a meal with bernie sanders, and their impact is so significant that hillary clinton should have been by far to the democratic nomination and he's been having trouble because so many of these 18 to 26-year-olds are choosing sanders and they're voting, which also doesn't often happen. young people were turned on by barack obama. this is the third straight

election where the republicans have to look and say what went wrong that we get so few of these first and second time voters. >> what do they think of donald trump? >> no republican, not trump, not rubio, no republican is on their radar screen right now. and by the way, social media has taken over as the way that they get their news and information, which to me is a little bit frightening because there's no accountability. >> me too. >> if there's something wrong here -- >> and so will they vote is the final question? >> they'll absolutely vote. and this snapchat generation, and i call it that because everyone in this generation is on snapchat. think of what it is, it's a chance to communicate but at the moment, at that time and then everything disappears. that is almost what these young people are like. >> why do they like bernie so much? >> because they hate business, they hate bankers. the number -- the most hated profession among 18 to 26-year-olds are bankers. and i know a lot of them watch

so hopefully they turned off before we got to this part. the number one complaint they have about america today is that there's too much corruption. >> and the number one issue they were concerned about was income inequality. >> so what does this sound like? it sounds just like a sanders campaign. >> and so this is the generation that rejects capitalism. in fact the most interesting finding is that 58% believe that socialism is the most compassionate form of economics and less than 40% choose capitalism. i'm in deep trouble. >> so what's their definition of success for themselves. >> financial success, personal success. it's the idea that they can get what they want, that they can achieve what their objectives are. and the only thing they think that's holding them back is business, is the economy, is capitalism. this is a very radically different generation than what came before it. >> they should visit some other countries. >> yes, but -- and their parents will undoubtedly pay for those

visits. >> all right, thank you, frank. did you like them? >> no, they're not my favorite generation. i actually like their parents more than i like them. >> and they speak so highly of you, mr. lunts. >> i make them call me dr. luntz. >> thank you for joining us at this table. the internet star who loves wine and hates mornings will be with us in studio 57. >> every time my alarm clock goes off, it's just like beep, beep, you have a job. beep, beep, you have bills to pay. beep, beep, you have a drinking problem that your mom keeps telling you you should seriously consider addressing. >> i think frank luntz is saying i offer you exhibit a. coming up next, matt bellasi is here showing us how he

because it gives us heartburn. first of all, shut up. french fries are worth the pain. have you ever seen what i look like in the morning? my body isn't ready to confront the world until i've had three cups of coffee, a nap and lunch. >> and then he is good to go. matt bellassai is here at the table for his first network tv appearance. we are so glad to have you here. >> thank you. i'm so excited. >> matt, this is what i think is so funny about you. this is a weekly show where i get drunk at my desk and complain about it. you are doing something that people would normally get fired for for doing and you figured out a way to make a living doing that. >> yes. somehow i manage to get bye-bye doing it. i think secretly everybody is -- everybody drinks a little bit at work. i just did it in full view of everybody. >> no, they don't. >> but your job is -- you started as a comedy writer. >> i was, yes. >> and so your agent from caa, now you've got an agent, matt. >> i do. it's very weird. >> she says you're a creative

genius. >> she's too kind. her job is to say nice things about me, so -- >> so how did this start? >> how did this start, yeah? >> so i was just a comedy writer at buzzfeed. that was my first job out of college. i got, you know, hired out of college where i studied journalism and thought i was going to be a magazine writer and was writing just kind of nonsense on the internet. and i said, you know, i'd love to start doing some videos on facebook. >> so you said a call and they say we're going to make you a star? >> i was the one who was like i want to be the star. i want to be on camera. and they were like okay, matt. calm down. we'll see. we'll see if it works out. so they -- you know, buzzfeed is a super experimental place and they were like let's set up a camera and see if it works. >> you whine about it, as you say. are you drunk while you're doing it? >> oh, yes, yes.

i have full bottles of wine every week. the glass looks like it's only one glass, but it fits a full bottle of wine. i put the whole thing back. >> in that one glass. >> so do you think somebody wants somebody who whine for them? >> yeah. i think it's kind of cathartic a little bit. people watch it and share it because i get away with saying stuff they wish they could say, and so they share it as a way of saying i agree. >> your parents must be proud. >> they are very proud. >> when people say your son does what, because you went to college. you're a college educated person. so what do they say, matt? >> my parents are very proud. they were a little worried when i said i wanted to be a writer in new york to begin with, and then i started getting drunk and it started taking off and i think they -- they got onboard

once their friends started saying do you know how popular he is, his videos are getting. >> what are the best topics to whine about? >> i like to pick everyday things that people go through every day. the biggest topics that i picked were texting, which everybody does. >> so what you did was annoying people who text. >> yes. >> who are they? >> my biggest pet peeve is people who only respond to texts with the letter "k" and like a period. that is deal-breaker number one. >> what does that convey? >> it's like the smallest thing you can do but it is the biggest defense. it's just conveys that you're just done with that person. you might as well not text me anymore. i'm not your friend. >> no, charlie, you'll like this. you said there should be a revolt against pants. that all you guys should band

together and say why should we wear pants. they're a venus fly trap. to squeeze into something to remind you how fat you are. >> it's true. none of us really have to be wearing pants. >> i'm not wearing pants. >> charlie says i think it's a great idea. >> i was surprised that you were in them. i'm just saying. >> but how about when you won the people's choice award and then they showed the wrong person, matt? >> they did. i had no idea what was going on. >> and you scare people. >> there i am. >> and it's not even you. >> who's that guy? >> that guy calls me the next day. i talked to him on the phone. he managed to track me down. he's the nicest guy. he's a celebrity vocal coach in l.a. i made him promise to give me vocal lessons. >> how's that going? >> it's taking a little work. >> thank you, matt. >> thank you, matt.

>> frank luntz says you guys don't work 40, 50 hours a week. are you working 40, 50 hours a week? >> well, now i'm on my own so i make my own hours. >> all right, matt, congrats. >> thank you. >> you've definitely fallen onto something in a good way. matt is doing a little sharing on our snapchat account. follow "cbs this morning" on snapchat to see what is on his mind today. we showed you how a 106-year-old woman got her moves on at the white house. virginia mclauren talks about it, ex in. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
