7:04 am
a half century of tension. he will press cuban president raul castro to try to make reforms and try to convince him that engagement is better than isolation. this is the view of air force one as it glided on to the tarmac. minutes later, president barack obama peeked out of the window. mr. obama made history. >> back in 1928, president coolidge came on a battleship. it took him three days to get here. it only took me three hours. for the first time ever, air force one has landed in cuba. >> reporter: hundreds of cubans braved the rain to watch the presidential motorcade whisk by. many hung from windows and waved to the first family as they strolled through old havana. but some things have not changed in this state.

fall. if nobody gets the delegates, which they won't, then we will have to work at the convention. >> reporter: trump also said last night that he soon would be releasing a list of five to ten judges he would consider nominating to the supreme court. gayle, it's part of an effort to flush out policy proposals and present himself as a more substantive presidential contender. >> thank you. hillary clinton will speak shortly at that pro-israeli event in washington. clinton and trump lead the speakers at this apac conference. nancy cordes is whehere. >> reporter: presidential candidates to speak to this very influential proisraeli group. hillary clinton and donald trump will be addressing an estimated 10,000 people here in washington, though, it may be somewhat less in trump's case because some attendees have vowed to walk out on his speech.
7:10 am
he is campaigning in -- hillary clinton has addressed this group for several years now. she is going to tell the group this morning that the u.s. cannot remain neutral when it comes to israeli and that is a direct attack on donald trump, who said, recently, that he would be a neutral broker between israeli and the palestinians. that angered many in the pro-israeli community. he later walked that back. there are some rabbis who say, this morning, they are walking out on his speech, not only because he said that, but also because they say that some of the words he is using remind them of a time when jews were treated differently and they don't want to hear what he has to say today. the only presidential candidate who isn't going to be addressing this conference is the only major jewish candidate in the race, senator bernie sanders.
7:11 am

7:12 am
furious. about an inch an hour. they are expected to get anywhere up to 4 to 8 inches in this area. some places are actually going to get about a foot of snow. drivers across southern massachusetts will also be dealing with poor visibility on the road. working their way through blinding snow and wind gusts as strong as about 45 miles per hour. the slick slushy streets are causing accidents like this one in connecticut where this tractor-trailer went off the road. so, again, guys, play it safe there. schools in boston are closed for the day so not a lot of kids probably complaining about another free snow day to get out and enjoy it. be safe. if you're out in this mess, there is a winter storm warning here in plymouth around noon. that is when the snow is expected to taper off. >> looking good with keeping your head warm there, demarco! enjoy the snow. north korea this morning launched five projectiles into the sea and escalating tension

7:15 am
backed out and that triggered a complaint from abdeslam's lawyer. it could stop him from speaking in the future. >> now he is cooperating with the justice and he has a lot of information that interests the judge and police officers. >> reporter: like who helped him slip away from paris and find him way back to his old neighborhood under of the noses of belgium's finest. madam mayor, how can it be it took so long to catch him? four months and he was in the same neighborhood! >> because -- i don't know. the police make the investigation. the most important is that abdeslam is under arrest. >> reporter: he's now being held in a special section for high profile prisoners here. he is due to appear before a

8:05 am
obviously, it needs to be denounced from all sides. and so -- but i also think the media is obsessed with it. i'm not necessarily you all at cbs, but other shows have this stuff on a constant loop. i mean, they find an altercation and they play it and it's 24/7 and they preempt everyone else and everyone is kicked off the air hours and hours so we can keep talking about a couple of knuckleheads swinging at each other. >> mr. trump has warned about riots if he is denied the nomination at the convention in july in cleveland. i mean, what do you think of a warning like that coming from a front-runner and are you doing anything to prepare for that possibility? >> well, i guess i don't put it at the level of a warning to us. but, you know, he, obviously, said yesterday he doesn't believe that. but nevertheless, the point is still a good question. we prepare for all contingencies

8:07 am
>> well, i would agree that, you know, people running for office ought to focus in on the positive, the message of the future, bringing all americans together and uniting all of us. i think sometimes the daily grind of campaigns can get the best of everybody. but i also think that, you know, we all need to rise above these such things. so, look. i think this is about fixing this country and getting people back to work, on track, tackling a debt bomb in this country that is going to destroy us. >> mr. chairman! we pressed democrats -- >> the 11th commandment -- >> mr. president, we press democrats and republicans to answer the same way on this show. let me ask you seriously because i think this is serious. calling another female journalist crazy and sick and overrated, is that presidential and is that what the republican party stands for? >> it's not a matter of whether it's presidential or not because it's a word that we can all choose to define for ourselves. but it's not something i would

8:09 am
and that is where my job does get tougher because i need to get everyone back in the room and coming in the same direction following the convention. and so that is what we are working hard on every day and we could have a nominee before cleveland. we could have an open convention at cleveland. so, look. we are in historic times and i recognize that. but, at the same time, when you take all of our candidates and put them head-to-head against hillary clinton and no cases we are beating her, if not slightly behind. so, look. it's a wide open race and i don't think anyone can deny that. >> you say you're joining the challenge of the job? you still got your hair so that is good. you're not pulling it out. all right. >> you know, i appreciate it. no, i am actually enjoying it. it's a great opportunity. i have a front seat to history. >> yes. >> and i'm hoping, you know, every day to do my best and be open-minded and be patient. >> thank you, mr. priebus for joining us morning. you might staring at your to do list to start the week.
