7:03 am
welcome to "cbs this morning." donald trump's campaign is conceding that president obama was born in the united states. but the republican nominee himself is not saying that. the question came up as another new poll finds the presidential race in a statistical tie. hillary clinton leads trump 41% to 40% when third party candidates are included. >> "the washington post" asked trump if he believed the president is american-born. trump said he wasn't ready to answer the question. an adviser put out a statement saying quote mr. trump believes that president obama was born in the united states. major garrett is covering the long-running controversy, or side show major good morning. >> good morning. for years donald trump was the celebrity face of the so-called birther movement. even financing efforts in hawaii to prove president obama was born outside of the united states. but in recent months, trump has been evasive on the subject.
7:04 am
but now, trump's campaign spokesman, but not yet trump, is trying desperately to put the birther issue to bed. >> i don't need to talk about it anymore, bill. >> yeah i know. >> but it's there, on the record. >> that's been donald trump's refrain on the birther issue since entering the presidential race last year. pressed again on the issue wednesday, trump told "the washington post," i'll answer that question at the right time. i just don't want to answer it yet. that evasion raised questions about whether trump stands by the position he held publicly for years. >> why doesn't he show his birth certificate? you are not allowed to be a president if you're not born in this country. >> trying to tamp down speculation and political controversy trump's campaign late last night put out a statement, not from the candidate himself but from communications adviser jason miller who praised trump for bringing, quote, this ugly incident to its conclusion in 2011. by successfully compelling president obama to release his birth certificate. >> yes, in fact, i was born in
7:05 am
hawaii. >> reporter: but the public release of a president's long form birth certificate did not quiet trump. >> a lot of people feel it wasn't a proper certificate. >> reporter: he called the document a fraud on twitter for years. and insisted president obama was born in kenya. >> i don't know where he was born. >> reporter: at a conservative political conference in 2015, trump again questioned the president's citizenship. and falsely tried to pin the rumor on hillary clinton's 2008 campaign. >> hillary clinton wanted his birth certificate. hillary is a birther. whether or not that was a real certificate, because a lot of people question it, i certainly question it. >> reporter: in the 2016 republican primary season, trump memorably used the birther issue again. this time against rival ted cruz. >> wasn't born in this country. it's a big problem. it's a huge overhead. nobody knows. actually, nobody knows, and they're looking right now, they're trying to figure it out. >> reporter: coincidentally, jason miller who now says trump
7:06 am
believes the president was born in the united states, worked for ted cruz in the republican primary. it should also be noted back in 2011 trump said he may release his tax returns when president obama released his birth certificate. well, gayle, we have the president's birth certificate but still no trump tax returns. >> and so it goes. major, thank you very much. hillary clinton is condemning donald trump on this issue for a second day. minutes ago in washington the democratic nominee said trump's campaign was founded on this birther issue which she called an outrageous lie. she said her opponent owes the president and the american people an apology. nancy cordes is in washington where clinton is still speaking right now. nancy, good morning. >> good morning. clinton has called trump bigoted before but last night at a hispanic awards gala here in washington she brought up what she called several new examples like when he called a black pastor a nervous mess just yesterday. and his refusal to say that the president was born here, despite his campaign now says he believes.
7:07 am
>> every time we think he's hit rock bottom, he sinks even lower. >> reporter: the reversal came just an hour after clinton unleashed a barrage of tweets calling his candidacy the most divisive of our lifetime. >> he was asked one more time, where was president obama born? and he still wouldn't say hawaii. he still wouldn't say america. >> reporter: she said trump's comments have now gone beyond innuendo or dog whistle. >> from the racist lie about mexican immigrants that launched his presidential campaign, to his racist attack on a federal judge. >> reporter: clinton told the hispanic gathering that she would send a comprehensive immigration proposal to congress in her first 100 days in office. >> i will reach out to republicans and say, this is your chance. to help millions of families,
7:08 am
and show that your party, the party of lincoln, is better than donald trump. >> reporter: the cbs news/"new york times" poll finds voters think clinton would do a better job than trump handling immigration. and a much better job on foreign policy. but, trump still has an edge on the economy. the number one issue for voters. ♪ i feel good in grownsboro, north carolina, clinton used her recent illness and campaign absence to make a political point. >> i can afford to take a few days off. millions of americans can't. they either go to work sick, or they lose a paycheck, don't they? >> reporter: clinton said that she realizes she needs to give americans something to vote for, not just vote against, so she's going to try to talk about policy as much as possible, and stay positive. but, just a few hours after that, charlie, she was on stage in washington, blasting trump. >> thanks, nancy.
7:09 am
a senior adviser to mitt romney and paul ryan, here's the question, is it in donald trump's interest for us to be discussing the birther issue this morning? >> no, it's astonishing to me that six-plus weeks out, he's still talking about this issue. these are the kind of issues if you think they're to your political advantage, they're only to your political advantage deep early in a primary. not now. >> why is he doing -- >> i agree with what they say my campaign said. >> i think he's undisciplined. there has been a lot of the clinton folks, a lot of the clinton campaign has been wondering over the last couple weeks whether donald trump could put some discipline around himself and around his campaign. they've been seeing that over the last couple weeks and they've been worried about it. i've heard this from a number of folks. they question how he performance in the debates. they want to try to provoke him so he can act sort of crazy and they can raise the temperament issue. will he be able to demonstrate discipline. moments like yesterday remind you on certain issues he has no discipline and the old donald trump could return. >> but dan, he keeps saying i
7:10 am
don't bring it up. you guys bring it up. i'm not even discussing it anymore. >> welcome to a presidential campaign where you have hundreds of reporters breathing down your throat trying to provoke you. the kind of pressure you are under as a presidential candidate is nothing like you dealt with before and donald trump is experienced as he is in media is still a first-time candidate. >> donald trump laid out a tax plan yesterday included tax cuts, seven the current seven rates collapsed to three but he also included higher spending. >> right. >> which is a break with republican orthodoxy. >> on issue after issue, what's amazing about trump is he's effectively running against both parties. he's running against the democrats and he's at least running against trad igszal republican ideas. on the spending front i mean becausing basically a new entitlement is jarring to anyone committed to fiscal conservatism over the last several decades. i don't think he cares. at the end of the day i don't think that will do him in politically. these other issues like temp temperament and lack of
7:11 am
discipli discipline -- >> you can make the argument running against both political parties is a good moves move. >> i'm not beholden to anybody. in that sense he's a much more powerful message. >> did he talk about hillary's health? she walked out yesterday to i feel good by james brown is it still an issue do you think? >> no. i think the health issue can only be potentially an issue when voters don't see the candidate. the moment -- you can miss a few days on the trail. the moment all this has tear yeah but the moment you're back on the trail people forget about it. in a little over a week 100 million people are going to watch both of them get on stage and debate. she will be fine. she will be energetic. people are going to forget about the health issue. it will be a nonissue. >> is this a dead even campaign right now? >> i think hillary is slightly ahead. but if i were her campaign, i would be -- i would be concerned it's too close for comfort because at the end of the day, it is a change election. and in a change election, it's easy to sort of underestimate how far voters are willing to go to get change. so it's easy for the clinton
7:12 am
campaign to say oh, it's still trump. he'll never win. in a change election you're playing with fire if that's your attitude. so close race is one that's wide -- >> federal regulators are warning users of the samsung gal axty note 7 to turn off their phones immediately. about 1 million of the smartphones in the u.s. are under recall. samsung says a battery defect could cause the device to overheat. dozens of phones have reportedly caught fire since its release last month. the company put out a voluntary recall two weeks ago. the government says samsung has not done enough. kris van cleave is inside the consumer product safety commission. good morning. >> good morning. there are at least 92 reports of a battery inside this phone overheating. that's a resulted in 26 burn injuries, and reports of 55 cases of property damage that includes fires. this morning, turn this phone off.

7:14 am
he sad sam strung fumbled. >> the recall process took a lot longer than anybody thought because samsung tried to do it by themselves. >> reporter: the cpsc agrees. he says samsung should have brought in the government right away to handle the recall. >> it's not a recipe for a successful recall for a company to go out on its own. and that in my mind, anybody who this that a company going out on its own is going to provide the best recall for that company, and more importantly for the consumer, needs to have more than their phone checked. >> strong words there. 97% of these phones that were sold in the u.s., and about 1 million or so have been sold have the defective battery. so far only about 130,000 have been brought in for a refund or exchange for a fixed phone. and there are reports the cpsc is looking into other samsung devices that have had fire issues. gayle? >> well thank you very much, chris. an ohio police officer is on administrative leave this morning after shooting and killing a teenager who allegedly

police. and are calling for an independent investigation. >> we're told that he wasn't doing anything wrong. he wasn't looking for trouble. >> according to the family tyree was a regular, typical 13-year-old. he was always laughing, always smiling, and instead of, you % know, planning for a football game this weekend, the family's planning for a funeral. >> reporter: according to "the washington post," since the beginning of 2015 there have been at least 60 deadly shootings by police of people holding toy guns. >> a 13-year-old is dead in the city of columbus because of our obsession with guns and violence. >> reporter: columbus city officials are urging for calm during the investigation into tyree's death. in 2014, 12-year-old tammer rice was holding a pellet gun in a cleveland park when he was shot and killed by a police officer. >> we don't have enough facts to know anything about how this relates to any other shooting,

8:05 am
>> whether the russians aren't doing enough or the syrians aren't listening, we're not getting results we need on humanitarian access and for the deal to move forward and it can be a very important deal because it can prevent the regime from flying over opposition areas, can prevent barrel bombing, chemical attacks, the kinds of things we have seen the regime do for so long, it can turn the russians to do what they were supposed to do all along, which is fight terrorists instead of civilians. but in order for that to move forward, we need the cessation to hold for seven days and sustained, and resumed humanitarian access which we don't have right now. >> they said this is the last chance. do you believe this is the last chance, this plan? >> we're certainly investing in it as if it is. the suffering as you said, charlie, of the people has been so great, this is a real opportunity, the united states and russia have been negotiating for months to get into this level of grand lair ty and specificity, but russia has to deliver a regime so -- >> is there a difference in the administration between state and defense in terms of how much you
8:06 am
can trust the russians and how much you can share intelligence with the russians? we were talking about that for days. >> they are. favored parlor talk who is where and so forth. we have one policy and the president sets the policy and we're all moving to implement it. i was with secretary kerry and carter yesterday. we're on the same page. >> -- failure because of what happened in syria. >> you can't look at syria and think it is a growing success with the refugee flow and terrorist fighters, but it is incumbent on us to take the opportunity that we have here presented to us, russia is not excited about a quagmire in syria either. there is a terrorist problem that can unite people if we really focus on it. and we just got to take this opportunity and drive it home. and if all we do is cease hostilities and get food to people, that's a better week than last week. so we got to again focus on making incremental progress to ultimately bring about the political transition. >> ambassador, charlie mentioned
8:07 am
you're a pulitzer prize winning author. you posed a question, why does the united states stand so idly by? back then you said it was essentially american officials chose not to intervene. don't you believe that's what's happening again today in syria? >> well, syria is a very complex picture. there are thousands of armed groups, the question again of what military intervention would achieve where you would do it, how you do it in the way where the terrorists aren't the ones to take advantage of it has been extremely challenging. but the idea that we have not been, quote, doing anything on syria is absurd. we have done everything short of waging war against the assad regime. and we are, i should note, having significant success against isil, against -- on the ground, which is of great importance to the american people. >> president obama will make a big announcement about refugees in the coming days, correct? >> well, next week, when the heads of state gather, united states and the president are
8:08 am
doing what he does very well, with the heads of state gathering, leveraging what the u.s. does to get other countries to step up. so he's convening a summit where each country that gathers will be making new and significant pledges on funding humanitarian assistance, so refugees don't have to leave the region, but also in actually taking more refugees within each country's own borders. >> may i turn to north korea, the secretary of general ban ki-moon said it is urgent to do something. what can be done by the united nations because of the alarming threat of north korea having deliverable nuclear weapons? >> well, it is every bit as urgent as the secretary-general said and that's why in march of this year, my team negotiated the toughest sanctions, resolution through the u.n. that we have seen. >> on the nature of the regime. >> well, this resolution or this sanctions regime would cut off so many of the avenues they have to procuring the technology to continue to advance the program that they're doing. but it is not enough, of course.
8:09 am
first of all, it is a very isolated country to begin with. we need to ensure enforcement of the resolution that was passed and nput in place new sanctions. but we need china, the -- has the most leverage over north korea, and not infinite leverage because north korea is a difficult -- not to crack, but to use influence to get north korea back to the negotiating tab table. sanctions changes your calculus over time, impedes your ability to get your technology. but fundamentally it will be political talks that get them to give up their nuclear program. we need china to turn the heat up and that includes by closing all loopholes in the sanctions regime that exists. >> all right, ambassador power, always good to have you at the table. good to see you. looking at your computer screen all day long can be a real eyesore. ask the people sitting in our control room right now. they spend hours staring at mondayers in monitors in a dark room with all that blue light. how to deal with your strained
