morning. there will be commemorations at the pentagon and in pennsylvania where flight 93 went down. we continue to remember. we'll have it covered. >> let us turn to politics now. a busy morning in the presidential race. vice president joe biden making headlines for what he's saying about a possible run or what he's not saying. plus a look at the line-up for the first republicanle debate. first peter alexander has more on the vice president. peter, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning to you. this late night conversation with the vice president was remarkably raw, candid and certainly deeply personal. this was biden's first television interview, his first in depth and emotional comments since losing his son to brain cancer in may. on "the late show" thursday the man next in line to be president -- >> be careful what you wish for.

>> reporter: talking about what's next in line for him. >> i'm going to get in trouble. i think you should run for president again. i'll be your vice president. >> reporter: during the emotional conversation biden suggested he may not have the heart for another presidential run. >> i don't think any man or woman should run for president unless they can look at folks and say, i promise you have my whole heart, my whole soul, my energy. i would be lying if i said that i knew i was there. >> reporter: biden spoke about suffering and service and the struggle this summer after losing his son beau. >> he said, dad, i know how much you love me. so you have to promise me you're going to be all right. i don't know what it was about him. he had this enormous sense of empathy. >> sounds like you loved him. >> oh, geez. >> at times the host seemed

ready to give biden the colbert bump. >> i think your experience, your example of suffering and service is something that would be sorely missed in the race. i think we would be happy if you did run. >> reporter: but the democratic race hasn't slowed down without biden. bernie sanders surging past hillary clinton in iowa and new hampshire surprising even the senator himself. >> could you see yourself being president of the united states? >> increasingly, yes. >> reporter: still, clinton remains focused on the republican front-runner, donald trump. >> if it's all the same to you sh mr. trump, i would rather you stopped cherishing women and started respecting women. >> reporter: in ohio, a less than capacity crowd. one reporter tweeting, not exactly a packed house. but what keeps showing up is the e-mail controversy. a former staffer clinton paid to maintain her private server declined to answer questions

from the house benghazi committee. a new national poll overnight shows clinton's support among democrats has dropped to 37%. more worrisome is she lost her advantage in potential head to head match-ups against republicans like ben carson and jeb bush. as for the biden interview perhaps no one was better suited to do it with the compassion we saw than stephen colbert. he lost his father and two brothers in a plane crash 24 years ago today. >> let's bring in mark halpern. good morning. >> good morning. >> the tea leaf readers are dissecting every word joe biden said. he said he's not sure he's there yet, that he can make the full commitment to running. do you think he's bluffing? >> he's more inclined than before. that's the sense i get. >> to what? >> to run. three things were on display. first of all, the incredible

life of joe biden. second, this is the most wide open presidential race. joe biden can see the possibility of being president. and the personal moment for him now. does his son's death make him more want to run to fulfill the legacy, the dream both bidens had of one of them being president or is it too much? >> he saw this differently than we did. >> you could read it any way you wanted to. you said this is a wide open race, including on the democratic side, something no one would have said six months ago. this speaks to hillary clinton's sagging poll numbers. not just joe biden but others thinking i could get into the race. >> look what he did in new york. major league performance. not just on colbert and that incredible, touching thing, but talking about violence against women, minimum wage. he's ready to be president. >> can he get the organization

together, raise the money it will take to win the nomination and an election. >> for him, it's all about the personal. can he devote the attention? he can win it on the debate stage, i believe. he's great debater. he doesn't need her fund raising. he'll never get it. if she's threatened by bernie sanders, if she's threatened by democrating worried she's not the right person he can win. >> there is a lot to talk about with the republicans, too. we know who will take part in the next gop debate. things could be interesting. hallie jackson has the story. good morning to you. >> good morning. it's confirmed now that carly fiorina will be on the main stage at the next gop debate sharing it with donald trump. this is expected to be the fist time the two come face to face since he insulted her appearance though trump claims he wasn't talking about her looks at all. under attack from donald trump, carly fiorina is barely

blinking. >> i really don't spend a lot of time worrying about what donald trump thinks about my looks. >> reporter: trump was quoted saying while watching fiorina on tv, look at that face. would anyone vote for that? >> there is so much about him and very little about me. this is part of a pattern. where he says things and tries to explain why he said them. >> reporter: trump insists he wasn't talking about her face. >> i'm talking about her persona. >> some skeptical. >> the remark was about her face and not her persona. >> it goes hand in hand. >> reporter: trump said he's giving supporters what they want. >> many comments are made as an entertainer. >> reporter: trump is up 13% over ben carson who is trying to tamp down a tiff with the rival telling the washington post he apologizes if trump took offense to his remarks on religion adding he doesn't want to get

into gladiator wars. perhaps a truce but not for a frequent target. >> stephen colbert said, let's talk about the big orange elephant in the room. >> reporter: overnight, jeb bush taking a shot and ducking. >> that's a joke, donald. don't tweet. please. please. go to sleep. >> reporter: bush criticized trump's comments about fiorina tweeting the country deserves better. he said this isn't the first time trump said something controversial about a woman but it doesn't seem to hurt him with primary voters. >> let's go to mark on that point. it's interesting about trump. he says this about carly fiorina's face. it seems capable of one interpretation. now he says, i was talking about her persona. either you are a straight talker or you can't. >> you can be offended by what he said. you can point to the notion that

the explanation isn't credible. but he's got one-third of the vote now nationally in many key states in a 17-person field. he's said these things before. it hasn't hurt him. that's the trump brand. it's not a mistake that takes him off the message. that's what his supporters like. >> when you look at yesterday and you have jeb bush, scott walker, bobby jindal, carly fiorina firing at trump they are putting him where he want tots be. >> center of attention and he's a brawler. i asked his top aides are you worried about this fiorina thing? they laughed at me. this is what he wants. as long as he's the center of attention, fighting people say, yeah, i wish he didn't say that stuff, but i'm for him. one-third of the vote for a guy who's never run for office in a 17-person field. that's the reality the republicans face. >> how many have said he has a ceiling, 20, 25%. now it's 32. we'll see how high it goes.

pierced by bullets, gunshots coming within inches of striking drivers. >> we want everybody to be vigila vigilant. >> reporter: investigators say there could be multiple shooters. they are watching hundreds of traffic cameras today. so far, not a single suspect. some refuse to interrupt their routine. >> we vice president changed anything. we just keep carrying our firearm in case we find him. >> reporter: many aren't taking chances. some parents no longer driving their children on i-10. >> takes longer, but i have a little girl. everything to make her safe. >> reporter: today, four school districts are rerouting buses. as a group of armed civilians are patrolling side streets on their own. this morning, no sign of the shooter, only the fear left behind. yesterday alone police responded to reports of 15 shots fired along this stretch of i-15. while the confirm d number

remains all the 11 vehicles shot, later today police say the number will likely rise. investigators say the suspect won't likely stop until they are captured. matt? >> miguel, thank you very much. now from the category of that didn't take long. the nfl season kicked off last night. the new england patriots already the center of another controversy. >> the reigning super bowl champs defeated the pittsburgh steelers with tom brady throwing four touchdowns. during the first half the steelers' coaches reported problems with the headsets. at times saying they heard the patriots radio broadcast of the game in their ears instead of each other. >> in the post game news conference the steelers' head coach mike tomlin said it is not the first time he's had issues while playing in new england. >> there was a report that your radio went out -- your communications? >> that's always the case. >> here? >> yes. >> you're saying every time you play here --

>> i said what i said. >> bill belichick, a check on the patriots side, said they had issues with headsets during the game. >> can i chime in not just as a patriots fan. it is the nfl game day crew responsible for headset communication. >> there was a problem. but it's not the first time. >> the nfl ruling is if there is a problem with one headset, both teams have to shut off the headsets. nice job for the weather for the game, too. >> i'm sorry about that. >> it poured. >> those pats fans can do anything. >> natalie, top news of the morning. >> a florida man accused of trying to help plan an attack on a 9/11 memorial. 20-year-old joshua goldberg was talking with an fbi informer in july and gave them information on how to build a pressure cooker bomb. he also instructed the informer to place the bomb at a 9/11

how are you feeling this morning? >> feeling good, all things considered. >> as i understand it ump sitting with your wife, isabelle. you noticed the gunman go into the bathroom, thought it looked suspicious. when he came out, there he was with the gun. what happened next? >> well, at that moment, i looked to my left and saw the young frenchman who wishes to remain anonymous. he jumped the guy first. the door in front of him closed. at that moment i turned to my wife, isabelle, and told her to get out of there. i said the same to some of the passengers behind me. the door opened back up and i went in. somehow managed to get the ak-47. i took maybe five or six steps and he shot me in the back. i saw the gunman had retrieved his gun and was walking down the aisle. i thought he was going to shoot me in the head at that point. so i decided just to play dead

and i closed my eyes. then i heard some noises. i opened my eyes just in time to see spencer's body flying through the air, tackling the gunman. >> let's bring in spencer stone to pick up the story from there. spencer, i know you had been sleeping. suddenly you see a commotion. you leap over mark and attack this gunman. what do you remember? >> i remember hitting him pretty hard. we both fell down. kind of reaching for the gun. i couldn't find it. so i put him in a rear naked choke to defend myself. my friends anthony and alek came up, took the ak from him. he pulled out the pistol, pulled it back, put it against my head, click, it didn't work. i guess the clip fell out beforehand. then we pried it out of his hands. that next thing i know i see he has a box cutter. he started to slash my neck, cut

my finger down to the bone. and then i started to scream, he's got a knife, get the knife. i put him in another choke hold, choked him unconscious, ran over to mark, put my fingers to his neck, stopped the bleeding. >> both of you had moments where you felt this was it, this is the end. mark, do you remember that moment? do you remember spencer leaning over you and helping you? >> i remember it very well, because he was talking to me, trying to keep me from losing consciousness. he asked me where i was from, toll told me where he was from. said after this is over we'll go get a beer. he kept me there. the sound of his voice and the sound of my wife kept me there, kept me alive, gave me hope. >> spencer, in that moment you

still so many heroes today sacrificing to honor those who were lost. >> i think about the kids who weren't born and lost their parents who never got a chance. you see them when they ring the bell and they are under the age of 14. they never got to meet their mother or father. i think of the young men and women in elementary school who later went to war for this country after the images played out. i live near the freedom tower. i went out and you look at it. it represents the word we use so much in tragedy, the resilience of the nation. it is hallowed ground where the families go today. >> did you see the beautiful rainb rainbows? >> yesterday. coming out of one world trade. look at the picture. that's yesterday on september 10. >> that's the view from the new jersey side.

that's part of the kindred humanity that we all go through something. maybe we learn through how he's dealing with it. >> you strip out the politics. forget what you hear. i can't urge you strong enough. joe biden is so raw. but stephen colbert who lost his dad and two brothers in a plane crash, ironically today, september 11, 41 years ago when stephen was 10 years old. there are two people who feel each oh's pain, who know where the other is coming from. it's a beautiful interview. >> i'm always obsessed with the chicken soup for the souls. you hear of a story and how a person finds the light at the end of the tunnel. i kept thinking of the stories i have read in the books. it's the spirit of you can move forward. that loved one wants you to move forward. >> absolutely. we'll move onto a different subject. serena williams continuing her grand slam quest. she's there in the running. just two matches away.

the truth is red wine especially in moderation is good for your heart health. this is important. a couple of weeks ago we reported on a study that said there could be a link between light to moderate drinking. today we'll look at the cardiovascular system. we are talking about red wine. it contains a polyphenol. you have heard of resveritrol -- or not. it's an antioxidant. it promotes cardiovascular health, stabilize it is arteries. good for you. raises hdl, lowers ldl. this is something to point out. this is a serving for women. one a day is five ounces. to demonstrate this is a double serving. ten ounces. this looks like a lot in one serving but you know how you repour, one serving a day for women, two a day for men. >> of red wine?
