hillary clinton and senator tim kaine for their first joint interview. >> reporter: senator, you're going to be a vice president in a white house with two presidents. >> i mean, it's an embarrassment of riches. >> reporter: what do you think of that notion? >> i think it's an all hands-on deck time. >> yeah. >> we are going to have a crackerjack staff and we are going to have, you know, great efforts with our congressional allies and others. >> reporter: when we wrote that question, i expected you to come up out of your chair at me and tell me that there was only going to be one president. >> well, no, because i will be the president. but it does happen to be a historical fact that my husband served as president for eight year, and there is a lot that happened which helped the american people during those eight years. i want an economy that creates more jobs, and that is a lot of jobs. i want an economy that gets back to raising incomes for everybody. most americans haven't had a raise. i want an economy that is going

to help lift millions of people out of poverty because given the recession we have fallen back in the wrong direction and i'm also going to be relying on president obama. i already put him on notice. i'm going to be picking up the phone. i'm going to be calling and asking for his advice, so we are going to put them all to work. >> meanwhile, donald trump says recent changes to his proposed ban on foreigners entering the u.s. from countries compromised by terrorism is an expansion of his ban on muslims. in an interview broadcast yesterday, trump says he wants extreme vetting. also, yesterday, sunday morning senior contributor ted koppel asked trump about republican party unity and those who stayed away from the gop convention. >> what about the -- what about the elders, the party elders who didn't show up? the romney's, the bush's, the kasich's?

>> they are all people who i beat for the most part. i helped mitt romney but i think i talked him out of running in this race. he should have easily beaten a very badly damaged president and i was very critical of him and that is why he came out aganst me. jeb bush, obviously, i beat him very badly. kasich, i beat him very, very badly. kasich was beaten so badly and it's hard for people to recover. >> donald trump had once made president obama's birth place an issue. on "face the nation," cbs news political director john dickerson asked the president about trump and the birther debate. >> reporter: he was the chief birther in america, questioning you. what is your reaction of the fact that he is the nominee of the republican party? >> well, i think it says something about what has happened to the republican party over the course of the last eight, ten, 15 years. if you think about what bob dole or jim baker or howard baker or

dick lugar, or colin powell stood for, they were conservative, they were concerned about limited government and balancing budgets and making sure we had a strong defense. but they also understood that our system of government requires compromise, that democrats weren't the enemy, that the way our government works requires us to listen to each other. and, you know, that's not the kind of politics we have seen practiced. i think all too often. coming up on "cbs this morning," the very latest on the democratic national convention live from philadelphia, including john dickerson and more of his interview with the president. this morning, ft. myers police say two people are dead and as many as 17 people shot at

sanders and first lady michelle obama are scheduled to speak tonight. hillary clinton has a lot she need to accomplish during the convention. scott pelley spoke about that with cbs news contributor bob schieffer. >> bob, what does hillary clinton have to do here? >> well, i think she has to be very careful, because, you know, when donald trump was in cleveland, he really came down hard on terrorism and all that. the people in the hall liked him, but outside the hall, some people were, frankly, frightened by all of that. and she has to be careful not to totally discount the threat of terrorism. people are worried about terrorism. she cannot discount it entirely just in order to put down him. but the other thing, scott, is the chaos in which this convention is getting under way. i mean, this has been a year of surprises, but if you had told

me that this convention was going to open in chaos, the democratic national convention chairwoman was going to resign over yet another e-mail scandal, and then the clinton people say they are hearing from experts this is the fault of russians and that the russians may have been doing this to help donald trump. i mean, this is above my pay grade. i don't know. i just wouldn't have predicted this. >> speaking of trump, he hasn't toned anything down. >> he not only has not only toned it down, he has ratcheted it up. today, when chuck todd asked him would he support a democrat over former ku klux klan leader david duke who is going to run for the senate, he said, yes, he would support a democrat but he would want to know who the democrat was. i've never heard anybody qualify an answer quite like that. >> scott pelley and bob schieffer. coming up after your local news on "cbs this morning," scott pelley will have more of his talk with hillary clinton and tim kaine in their first and
