winning "w" is in the books! and for the first time since 1933, we'll have a world series in the nation's capital! unbelievable! >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" is presented by toyota. let's go places. >> #bliss. we'll talk about that later. i like trevor noah's take on spaying or neutering. that's a new way to look at it. >> yes. >> way to go, trevor. he's got a good point. welcome to "cbs this morning." we begin with this, the biggest presidential debate sparked divisions amongst the democratic presidential hopefuls as candidates took aim at the newest front-runner. it often seemed like it was eleven against one. senator warren, the rising candidate in the polls, faced most of the questions from the others on the stage last night. >> warren's opponents challenged her on everything from her health care plan to her proposed tax on wealth. they also had a lot to say about president trump. ed o'keefe filed this report earlier from outside the debate
7:04 am
site in westerville, ohio. >> reporter: well, good morning, anthony. it was the fourth round of debates in the democratic presidential primary, but the first stood against the backdrop of impeachment. and on that issue, there was near universal agreement. >> donald trump needs to be held accountable. >> trump is the most corrupt president in the history of this country. >> i started the need to impeach movement -- >> reporter: all 12 candidates in agreement on one topic, impeaching president trump. >> i swore an oath to do my job as a senator, do my duty. this president has violated his. i will do mine. >> reporter: and former vice president joe biden tried once again to move the discussion away from his son, hunter, and his work in ukraine. >> my son did nothing wrong. i did nothing wrong. >> reporter: but it was massachusetts senator elizabeth warren who has been rising in the polls and became a new target. >> sometimes i think that senator warren is more focused on being punitive or pitting some part of the country against
7:05 am
the other. >> reporter: she was hit on her plan for a wealthax. >> the problem is that it's been tried in germany, france, denmark, sweden, and all of those countries ended up repealing it. >> reporter: and for once again refusing to say whether her health care plan would raise taxes on the middle class. >> your signature, senator, is to have a plan for everything, except this. >> medicare for all is the gold standard. we can pay for this. i've laid out the basic principles. costs are going to go up for the wealthy. they're going to go up for big corporations. they will not go up for middle-class families. >> at the end of the day, the overwhelming majority of people will save money on their health care bills. but i do think it is appropriate to acknowledge that taxes will go up. >> at leastbern's being honest here and saying how he's going to pay for this and that taxes are going to go up. and i'm sorry, elizabeth, but you have not said that. >> everyone also agreed, the president's troop withdrawal from syria was a mistake. >> you have an erratic, crazy
7:06 am
president who knows not a damn thing about foreign policy. >> think about how absurd it is that this president is caging kids on the border and effectively letting isis prisoners run free. >> reporter: but they disagreed over how long u.s. troops should remain. >> you would continue to support having u.s. troops in syria for an indefinite period of time. >> you can put an end to endless war without embracing donald trump's policies -- >> will you end the regime change war is the question? >> what we're doing or what we were doing in syria was keeping our word. >> reporter: meanwhile, the night ended with big news from bernie sanders who earned the endorsement of two well-known liberals, minnesota congresswoman ilhan omar announced that she's backing his presidential bid, and cbs news has learned that new york congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez is set to endorse sanders on saturday. that's a big get for him considering that she has a wide national following and was also hotly pursued by senator warren. anthony? >> thank you.
7:07 am
major garrett is with us this morning. good morning. >> good morning. >> warren was suddenly the target and the center of everything last night. how did she handle being the front-runner? >> with poise, passion, and on medicare for all, evasion. she's made a tactical decision that she doesn't need to answer this tax question, that her supporters are going to stick with her and that she can ride this out. >> is that the right decision? >> we will find out. voters will tell us about this, but she had every opportunity last night to just say what bernie sanders had said -- keep the gap between them as narrow as possible. she didn't. she's tactically decided, this is not going to make or break her campaign. she's going to stick with the approach she's had. historically, she's been very successful. she has without a doubt one the most disciplined and effective campaign so far. she has not only taken over the progressive lane, she's become the most leading candidate in this, and you saw last night, when you're getting all the incoming, you know you're at the top of the heap. >> this was joe biden's first debate since questions about his son's role in ukraine. he's now kind of co-front remember runner. did he respond to the criticisms
7:08 am
of his son overseas effectively? >> there was a simple question put to the former vice president. you put out a statement sunday that no one in your family if elected can be on any boards. if it is not okay when you're president, why was it not okay when you were vice president? he evaded that answer just like elizabeth warren evaded the question about taxes for medicaid for all. if he thinks this question's going to go away, he might be right for the primaries. maybe the democrats won't harangue him on this. i know someone who will, the president of the united states. >> that's right. >> you'd better come up with an answer. >> well, they have time for that, for sure. bernie sanders certainly didn't evade anything. this is the first time we've seen him since his heart attack and everybody was watching. supporters, can they walk away saying bernie's still got it. >> i think so. his performance last night was solid and recognizable in every sense. no hint at all that he had had this health scare. and i think it's interesting to note that these endorsements will try to reset the campaign, put some new energy and life into it, in the sense that --
7:09 am
>> you've got aoc's endorsement. >> yes, which is interesting, because in 2016, he was not the candidate who sought or thought endorsements were important. her name was hillary clinton. but now he's playing the endorsement game because he needs someone on the outside to say this campaign is still viable and has energy. that's an important reset. >> what about the lower end of the candidate spectrum? anyone stand out in -- >> so, i said before here that i think geographically positioned, amy klobuchar has the best opportunity to be that alternative in iowa, if democratic voters are looking for an alternative. she used her time well last night, effective, aggressive, and also, i think you've got to look at andrew yang and pete buttigieg. again, there were these deserts camera for long stretches.not o- this debate desert when you have 12 people -- >> so many people out there. >> -- and three hours. but pete buttigieg and andrew yang, once they got the mics, used their time very effectively. >> going to need a wider angle on that stage. major garrett, thank you very much. we'll see if any of this moves the polls. >> more spaying and neutering. meanwhile in washington, house democrats say they're
7:10 am
rejecting republican pressure to formally authorize their impeachment inquiry. speaker nancy pelosi said last night that investigators will keep working to find what she calls a path to the truth. nancy cordes is on capitol hill. nancy, the list of officials who are not cooperating with this inquiry seems to be growing. >> reporter: yes. you've now got the department of defense, the vice president, mike pence, and the president's personal lawyer, rudy giuliani, all ignoring congressional deadlines to hand over documents. they essentially say they won't comply with what they view as an illegitimate investigation, and they want a voteinquiry. but for now, they're not going to get one. >> at this time we will not be having a vote. >> reporter: after meeting with democratic leaders, house speaker nancy pe annoued her decision has not changed and a vote is not required. >> the white house says it's not cooperating in part because there's not been a vote to formalize the impeachment
7:11 am
inquiry. why not hold the vote and call the white house's bluff? >> we're not here to call bluffs. we're here to find the truth to uphold the constitution of the united states. this is not a game for us. >> reporter: there was more dramatic testimony tuesday, this time from deputy assistant secretary of state george kent, who says he was told to lay low after he complained that rudy giuliani's efforts in ukraine were undermining u.s. foreign policy. texts and emails indicate giuliani and two u.s. diplomats, kurt volker and gordon sondland, urged ukrainian officials to investigate mr. trump's campaign rival, joe biden, and his son, a message the president reiterated in a july phone call with his ukrainian counterpart. >> we have learned that call was not an isolation. there was a great deal of eparatory work that was done before the call. >> reporter: kent told lawmakers he was instructed to leave ukraine policy to the so-called three amigos, volker, sondland, and secretary of energy rick perry. with evidence mounting,
7:12 am
republicans have dialed back their defense of the president. >> here's a news flash -- president trump is not geniuses. >> reporter: instead, they're taking aim at the inquiry itself, blasting it as unfair. >> this is a kangaroo court at best right now. >> reporter: lawmakers are going to hear today from michael mckinley, a former top adviser to pompeo. he served in the state department for 37 years but resigned last week. >> nancy, thank you. today a bipartisan group of congressional leaders will go to the white house to discuss the crisis in syria caused by turkey's invasion. new video shows turkish artillery firing on kurds in syria. vice president mike pence is heading to the region to press for a cease-fire as turkey's president gave kurdish fighters a deadline of tonight to leave a designated area along the border. charlie d'agata, who's near the conflict zone in neighboring
7:13 am
iraq shows us russia's growing role. >> reporter: well, the vice president may be headed to turkey, but president erdogan has already said we will never declare a cease-fire. one person he is speaking to, russian president vladimir putin, another indication of russia's lead role on and off the battlefield. it's not just syrian regime forces carving up kurdish territory. the flags on those military vehicles are russian, and it's president putin who now ultimately controls the flashpoint city of manbij, an area once dominated by u.s. forces and their kurdish allies. reporters from russian tv channels were seen mocking america in a show-and-tell of the abandoned u.s. military base there. mess halls with food trays, stocked refrigerators, footballs, half-eaten doughnuts, suggesting the troops left in a hurry.
7:14 am
cbs news has learned that u.s. forces across northeast syria have retreated to larger bases like kobani to begin air-lifting heavy equipment, but it's a risky operation. when turkish-backed militias, extremists made up of former al qaeda and isis fighters, came too close to an american unit, the u.s. responded with a show of force. apache helicopters like this buzzing in low to deter the fighters from advancing any further. as the war zone widens, civilians escaping the violence are running out of places to hide, with many now passing into neighboring iraq. russian tv is reporting today that syrian forces had taken control of bases left behind by u.s. troops. now, we've seen our share of bases like manbij. usually almost everything is packed away, but that looked like a place frozen in time. >> thank you, charlie. the british parents of a young man killed in a traffic
7:15 am
accident declined to meet with an american woman responsible for the crash. charlotte charles and tim dunn met president trump at the white house yesterday. they rejected his surprise offer to meete sacoolas, who was waiting nearby. she left the country after the crash, claiming diplomatic immunity. the crash killed harry dunn. his parents say president trump did not seem responsive to their request to have sacoolas return to the uk to face justice. charlotte charles and tim dunn will be here next hour to tell us about that meeting with the president and why they decided not to meet anne sacoolas in person, an interview only on "cbs this morning." now to hong kong where embattled leader carrie lam was shouted down as she tried to deliver an important annual speech. [ speaking foreign language ] >> that chaotic scene follows controversial comments by nba
7:16 am
star lebron james, who appeared to support china, rather than pro-democracy demonstrators. his remarks outraged protesters who are also punishing brands that appear to take china's side. ramie ino sensa is in hong kong. how are protesters showing their anger? >> reporter: good morning. whether it's the nba or u.s. companies like starbucks, businesses basically have to toe this fine line between principles as well as profits. a case in point, the starbucks right behind me has been vandalized over and over and over again. that's because the hong kong franchise owner has condemned these pro-democracy protests. bottom line, really, though, is that all roads lead to china and all rage leads to china, too. the anger was swift. lebron james, a beloved athlete in hong kong, was now the target. protesters here burned and trampled his jerseys. but back home, james stood tall and doubled down.
7:17 am
>> you know, if you feel passionate about it, talk about it. if you're not -- if you don't have a lot of knowledge about it or you don't quite understand it, i don't think you should talk about it. >> reporter: lebron, famous for speaking up for the disadvantaged, controversially challenged houston rockets general manager daryl morey's tweet in support of the hong kong protesters, seemingly affecting lebron's and the league's bottom line. evan osnos is a staff writer for "new yorker" magazine. >> and he made the choice that he had to say something, and there wasn't a whole lot of things that he could have said, but this was clearly not the thing that lived up to the image that he has carved out for himself and that people hold him to. >> reporter: lebron james' net worth of roughly $450 million nearly compares to a large corporation and a large portion of that revenue can be linked to china. the nba says the country's pro basketball fans are more than double the population of the united states. and for james, that's too big a
7:18 am
market to ignore. >> lebron is a unique figure in that world. and so, for him, he risks in his mind not only hurting potentially the league, but also hurting his own significant profile there. >> reporter: besides the nba, protesters here may also be targeting other u.s. companies. that includes apple as well as with mcdonald's. now, with the iphone maker, that's because the company pulled an app on its chinese app store that could let protesters here basically find, target, and avoid the hong kong police. and as with mcdonald's, get this, the company here is majority owned by a chinese company. anthony. >> ramy, thank you. tens of millions of americans are bracing for a nasty nor'easter today into tomorrow. 2 to 6 inches of rain could cause flash flooding from delaware to maine. the new england coast could see

welcome back to "cbs this morning." it's time to bring you some of the stories that are the "talk of the table" this morning. this is where we each pick a story we'd like to share with each other and with all of you. >> okay. >> start it off. >> i got a bit of a parental advisory out there. we knew it was true but needed the experts to tell us. it's abo children's beverages. we know they're big business. americans spent $1.4 billion last year on 34 of the most popular brands of fruit drinks and flavored waters for kids, but a new report by the university of connecticut finds none can be considered healthy despite the word "fruit." two-thirds contain no real
8:31 am
juice. most contain no more than 5% juice. and despite this, 85% have images of fruit on the cover. talking kool-aid jammers, capri sun. i loved me some minute maid lemonade. after basketball practice in history, i would drug it right from the carton. that may be why they called me husky in college. >> better to be called husky than portly. debbie downer. i love these -- >> i love them all. the advertising makes it seem fun. in moderation. >> you think you're being healthy, but you're not. >> not so much. >> gayle? >> mine is britain's prince harry. became emotional during a speech last night in london for the well child awards. the awards honor gravely ill kids and their caregivers. harry choked back tears when he recalled last year when he and meghan markle knew that they were pregnant but nobody else did. >> last year when my wife and i attended, we knew we were expecting our first child. no one else did at the time, but we did. and i remember --
8:32 am
[ applause ] >> that was a little snort and a cry. harry says that he remembers squeezing meghan's hands so tightly last year. as first-time parents, we remember when baby archie was born. they adore this little boy. and so when he starts thinking about his own son and other kids that aren't doing so great, it does -- it gets to him. you can see that. so much for the british stiff upper lip. i think it's great when you see that kind of emotion. >> fatherhood can soften even the toughest man. i love seeing it. >> exactly right. >> so true. it was a very intimate moment. all right. > the rock and roll hall of fame announced the nominees for its 2020 class. 16 artists were nominated. among them, the late whitney houston. ♪ oh i wanna dance with somebody i wanna feel the heat with somebody ♪ >> houston died in 2012. she is a first-time nominee for the hall of fame.
8:33 am
other nominees include pat benetar, dave matthews bands, do pearl mode, the doobie brothers, and the notorious b.i.g. after voting by fans and music industry experts, the official inductiontors will be announce -- inductees will be announced in january. >> i knew you were going to pick that story. when i saw it, i knew you were going to do it. >> i looked at it and thought, everybody is going to think i'm going to pick this. i better pick it. >> they call it the rock and roll hall of fame but they have musicians across genres. >> in the end, music is not confine today to one genre. -- confined to one genre. >> why don't they call it the music hall of fame? >> that's a good question. six of the 16 nominees have never won a grammy which i think is interesting. just three have had number-one songs, whitney houston, noer to notice b.i.g., and the doobie brothers. >> a list, very good class. paul rudd has become one of hollywood's most beloved actors more than his 25-year career, he
8:34 am
starred in "clueless" to hits like "anchor man" and "this is 40." rudd stars abuse himself in a netflix -- stars as himself in a netflix series where he plays miles, a man who is unhappy with his life and visits a spa hoping to turn things around. miles returns home to find he has been replaced by a better version of himself. >> what have you been doing here? >> i live here. >> i live here. i'm here. >> take it easy. take it easy. >> what's happening, what's -- that's what i'd like to know. that's what i'd like to know. that's what i'd like to know. >> the only thing i know is they was upstairs with my wife, and now i'm bein attked by someone who looks like me in a diaper. >> paul rudd is with us now. paul, good morning. welcome. >> good morning. >> "entertainment weekly" says paul rudd gives two of his best performances in this show. >> they're both really good.
8:35 am
>> they are both really good. what's it like playing opposite yourself a nightmare. >> yeah. >> i'm such a diva. >> how do you do that? >> it -- it was -- >> like a dance. >> in a way it is. it was a challenge, and i -- i was excited to try it. and i -- and you know, normally when you're acting opposite somebody, you don't know where a scene's going to go because who you do is dented on what the -- dependent on what the other person is doing. this is the first time i got to think of a scene and construct it from the ground up. >> like literally, practically, how did you do it? a green screen or a dummy there? >> no, a lot of times - it's not an unconventional way, but there are many ways to do it. for me the way it worked best was to records the audio for -- record the audio for both charact character. whatever character is driving the scene is the one they would film first. i wouldn't act with a double or an acting partner, i would put a little earwig in my ear, i would
8:36 am
listen to the opposite line. if i'm playing the new version of the character, i can hear the old version replying because there's somebody off screen hitting the cue. and then i w study that take, once we settled on the proper master take that we would use, i would switch over into the other guy, and i would say where i was moving what happen what gestures i was doing on what words and i would her hear it -- i would hear it on the reverse. that's where it's choreography. it became a little easier as it went along. it was a -- >> i it would think it could get confusing. >> yeah. at tis. but like anything, i guess you just get into the zone. and we were able to do it in a fairly short amount of time. >> i would think it would be acting gold, though, to have this type of role that you get to play two personalities, but while looking exactly the same. you know you got something, paul, when you get to deliver a line that says "is there a reason why i'm wearing a diaper." that was laugh out-loud funny in
8:37 am
the scene. you shot that in a part -- did others see you outside? it is a very, very funny scene. >> actually, the very first week we filmed -- >> so funny. >> which we moved up in the schedule because the weather was going to change. and a cold front happened -- there wasn't a lot of running outside -- >> the first scene. >> the opening of the show i'm running through the woods in a diaper. i emerge from a grave wearing a diaper. we shot it in a park. and -- and -- >> you were in a grave -- >> there were people riding their bikes past it. or they were like -- i got to get somewhere. >> that's another role people have seen you in. your father, does being antman, mean that you are cooler to your children's friends? >>. i think if i'm cooler it's because i know tom holland. that's about it. i think that there -- it is exciting for my kids and for their friends -- >> is there a look of recognition, though? people come over, little people, children, are like, wait a
8:38 am
minute, is that your dad? is he antman? >> i've been friends -- >> how old are your kids? >> my kids are 14 and 9. their friends now i've known for a while. kids are interested for about two seconds. and then they want to just kind of play with their friends. >> yeah. >> was playing a superhero something you ever thought you'd do? >> no. it's not. it just -- that was -- i never thought too much about it. i wanted to play lots of different parts and different genres andal kind of characters. -- and all kind of characters. that wasn't something i anticipated. when it happened, it was a pleasant surprise. >> is it just another part or -- it comes with a lot of global recognition. >> absolutely. it's certainly the most visible thing that i've ever done. and it was also the first thing that i ever did that was suitable for younger audiences. >> can i go back to living with yourself? all this happens at the top happy spa. so just think about that for a second. run by two korean gentlemen. and when you first get there, who's walking out the door? that was a surprise. >> right.
8:39 am
yeah. there's a -- the premise of the show is i play a guy named miles who just not in the best -- >> his name was george until you changed it to miles. >> it was george -- i think i've played five different georges. >> yes. >> and how did you pick miles? >> i was thinking of my fantasy football team. i had jacksonville defense and i thought miles jack. and so -- >> miles is a cool name. >> his name is miles elliott. and tim greenberg, the writer, when we nixed george, we were trying to come up with other names. he said how about elliott. i think he came one because he had ezekial elliott. >> it's plumb the deaths of psychology. did playing your best and worst self make you see your best and worst self? >> it makes me re-evaluate as i do any kind of characters -- >> the demons come out. >> are we allowed to see who was the superstar coming out the
8:40 am
door -- >> i thought we said. >> it's out there -- >> it is -- >> who? >> didn't you say it? i know who it was. i saw it. it's a great show. we appreciate you being careful -- >> what a tease. >> it is exciting. >> superstar. >> "living with yourself" premieres this friday on netflix. coming up, salesforce co-founder mark ben yugoslavia has waded -- benioff
8:41 am
8:42 am
8:43 am
8:44 am
billionaire mark benioff is considered a game changer for activism in the business world. he's co-ceo and chairman of the cloud company seasforce which is -- salesforce which is around $130 billion with a b dollars. he's sharing the values behind his company. in 2015 benioff threatened to scale back business in indiana after state lawmakers passed a law that said that he said discriminated against the lgbtq community. a lot of people believe that. that measure was amended one week later. he also helped close a gender gap, pay gap, at salesforce, his own company, and speaks out over problems with social media. his new book, appropriate called "trail blazer: the power of business is the greatest platform for change."
8:45 am
mark benioff joins us at the table. >> a big deal when you have your cover and name bigger than the title. >> that is a good clue. here we are, mark, summer of 1996. you're living the american dream. you're very successful. making a lot of money. you said you weren't happy. you felt lost? you took a sabbatical and found what about yourself? >> right -- >> it changed how you do your business. >> you're 100% right. i had spent a decade working at oracle, and after ten years, i was like, i'm not feeling very good. you know, something's really wrong. and i said to my boss, i've got a problem. his name is larry ellison, ceo of oracle. he said, you should take a sabbatical. i didn't know what it was. and he explained it to me, and i took off for a while. and i went -- >> what did you find? >> i went and found myself. i'll tell you what i found was that i kind hear two parts of myself. one part of myself was my work self. one part of myself was my philanthropic self trying to do good. and i put those two things together, and i started salesforce. >> you said you don't want --
8:46 am
you didn't want to be an activist ceo, b your employees pushed you -- >> i didn't. that's right. >> n you embrace that role. >> gayle mentioned we have no choice but to listen to our customers, key stakeholders, and even our local public schools, the homeless in san francisco where we have a terrible situation -- >> the homeless stakeholder -- >> absolutely. when you're running the largest company in san francisco and i'm walking to work, i'm looking in the eyes and the hearts of those homeless. those are my key stakeholders. my employees are saying, what are you going to do about this? that's why last year, i ran a major campaign for something called proposition c to actually tax salesforce so we can pay more to provide services to the homeless in san francisco. they're a key stakeholder. >> business leaders were upset with you about that. >> i was going to say -- >> yeah. >> look, in business you have to realize of course you have
8:47 am
shareholders. that's one of the core premises. and you also have stakeholders. like we just talked about. the employees, the customers, the partners. >> the homeless, the cools -- >> a radical idea -- schools -- >> a radical idea for a corporate leader. >> not as radical as you would think. companies have stakeholders and shareholders, they're just as important. and i have a shareholder return, by the way, if you bought salesforce stock in 2004 when we went public, you would have a 100% return. >> i didn't either. >> i didn't either unfortunately. >> i also have a stakeholder return. the stakeholder return is $300 million in grants, we've done four million hours of volunteerism, we run 40,000 nonprofits and ngos for free, and we're a net-zero company, fully renewal by 2025 because we have stakeholders. that's why we have a stakeholder report and shareholders report. >> you believe companies can and should make money but they can also make money and do good for society. >> that's why i wrote the book,
8:48 am
"trailblazer." the reason why i wrote the book is so i can explain through the stories of salesforce over the last 20 years of how we've done both. how we've been able to do well and do good. how we've been able to put it together. to weave the fabric of success of salesforce is a story of shareholders and stakeholders. >> where does the activist ceo end and the capitalist ceo begin? the reason i ask is because you took a stand in indiana. it had what you perceived to be an anti-gay law. you do business in other countries that have anti-gay laws like india, morocco, yeah. where does it end? where's the line? >> we're the largest tech employer in india that. we're a major employer there. we have thousands of employees there. and beef me i was -- believe me, i was surprised as someone born in san francisco, the home of gay rights, when i got a phone call saying, hey, we have a problem. the governor, at the time mike pence, just signed a law discriminating against the lgbtq community. so we said, hey, if you don't
8:49 am
change that law, we're going to deinvest. and when we said that, hundreds of other companies followed us. >> briefly, mark -- >> the economic power we're able to create change. >> how would you handle what adam silver's dealing with in china? can you sum that up, what you would do in that situation? >> i think you have to assess all of the stakeholders, you know. you have many different stakeholders. it's a multistakeholder situation there. and if you don't bring them all in, then you have basically every story to be told. and if you're only telling one story, you can't weave the fabric. and i think this is really a critical message. that's why i wrote the book "trailblazer" because ceos need more information bike that. >> mark benioff -- >> i'm excited to have adam tomorrow -- >> we've got to go. on sale right now. we'll be right back. this is hamish.
