taking a political risk or thought i was doing something special. but folks, i was just answering in the straightforward direct way what i've known my whole life. and i mean this sincerely. >> reporter: clinton spoke to that gathering earlier in the day. and then appeared on "saturday night live." >> you are really easy to talk to, val. >> well, thanks. you know, that's the first time i've ever heard that. >> reporter: where she used she is struggling to connect with voters. president. >> me too. >> reporter: biden has run for president twice before. but scott, he's dreamed of being president for decades. and simply put, it may not be easy to give up on that dream. >> julianna goldman reporting tonight. julianna, thanks. syria's civil war took another ominous turn when russian warplanes strayed into turkish air space on saturday.

last week to prop up the assad dictatorship while the u.s. is targeting the terrorist army known as isis. now two of the world's largest air forces are fighting on different sides, and keeping them separated is the job of u.s. commanders in the persian gulf. david martin has a rare look. >> scott, this is the nerve center for the air campaign against isis. and through this window is the operations floor where all the missions are being tracked, including the ones over syria, where russian aircraft are also operating. you can see it on the screen. the yellow aircraft are russian, the green american. u.s. pilots flying f-16s out of turkey first picked up the russian planes on radar. the russians closed to within 20 miles, at which point the american pilots could visually identify them on their targeting cameras. lieutenant general charles brown, commander of the air

come even closer than that to his unmanned drones. >> the closest has been, you know, within a handful of miles into some of our remotely piloted aircraft. but for our manned aircraft, not closer than about 20 miles is about the closest we've seen. >> reporter: brown says he intends to just work around the russians. could they just crowd you out of syria? >> no. i don't think so. we're up a lot more often than they are. and so when they -- if we do have to move around for safe separation, it's for a small period of time compared to the hours and hours that we're airborne over iraq and syria. >> reporter: despite the russians general brown says he intends to increase strikes against isis sanctuaries in syria. many of those missions will be flown by the crews of these b-1 bombers who now, scott, must russians. >> david martin reporting from qatar. david, thanks.

that base also handles the air war in afghanistan, where over the weekend a u.s. air strike destroyed a hospital, killing 22 civilians. the top u.s. general in afghanistan said today those responsible will be accountable. and mark phillips is following this. >> reporter: two days after the u.s. air strike that destroyed this hospital in afghanistan the pentagon has now changed its story on how and why the attack happened. it was not, as was first said, called in by u.s. forces under threat while working with afghan government troops trying to retake kunduz from the taliban. u.s. general john campbell said, by the afghans themselves. >> afghan forces advised that positions and asked for air support from u.s. forces. an air strike was then called to eliminate the taliban threat and several civilians were accidentally struck. >> reporter: by several he means 22. 10 patients and 12 staff

killed by the devastating firepower of an ac-130 gunship like this one. the attack went on for an hour. the hospital is run by the international medical charity doctors without borders, which bravely operates in many of the world's war zones. and it insists it had specifically informed both u.s. and afghan authorities of the hospital's location. as for the kabul government's claim that the taliban were firing from around the hospital compound, the group's executive director, vickie hawkins, insists that was not the case. >> the comments coming from the afghan government are absolutely outrageous. they are to an extent justifying the destruction of a fully functioning hospital. >> reporter: the pentagon, nato, and the afghans themselves are now conducting investigations. doctors without borders says the only credible inquiry must be international and independent.

beyond the tragedy, the air strike raises questions about how u.s. air power in afghanistan is controlled, about the rules of engagement that are used and, scott, about whether designated like hospitals can become free fire zones. >> mark phillips in the london newsroom tonight. for generations taught to drive with their hands at 10:00 and 2:00. the times are about to change. airline workers attack their bosses.

tonight, a man who lost two of his uncles to gun violence, a president and a senator. >> i'm patrick kennedy. i'm the author of the mental health parity and addiction equity act signed into law in 2008. one consistency in all the recent tragedies is that the perpetrator had untreated mental illness. the most basic thing we can do is wrap around services upon the first incidence of someone's psychosis, usually in their late teen years, early 20s. we know when to expect these, when they happen. we ought to wrap our arms around the people who are suffering from these illnesses and treat them early as opposed to ignoring them until they become pathological stage 4 illnesses. and that's what leads to these ultimate tragedies. if you do that, you change the permanent trajectory of the illness, thereby curbing the ultimate tragedies that have taken place in almost every single one of the recent shootings. >> former congressman patrick kennedy. and we'll hear more ideas on gun

honest to god political movement. this isn't something esoteric about trying to take care of that alcoholic -- don't tell me those people we spend money on. us because these are americans. they're dying every day and they're our brothers and sisters. >> reporter: he says there's a pathology of silence about mental illness and addiction within families, especially his. in his book he breaks what he calls the kennedy code of silence. >> i don't tell in this book about my family's stories as some way to talk about their story. this is my story. these experiences are embedded in me. they're who i am. >> you write, i'm going to quote went on in silent desperation self-medicating and unwittingly passing his unprocessed trauma onto my sister, brother, and me. >> that's right. >> self-medicating. >> yeah.

>> so that was the alcohol? >> yeah, that was the alcohol. >> do you think he was an alcoholic? >> you know, i think he definitely had a problem with alcohol. i still right now, leslie, have trouble talking about this. this is like breaking the family code here. i am now outside the family line. >> reporter: outside the line talking about his dad but also about the silence surrounding his mother joan's alcoholism that he says he inherited. >> what was it like growing up with your mother? >> it was so tense. my mother clearly would be inebriated and under the influence. she would walk around in the middle of the day, you know, in a terry cloth bathrobe. and the amazing thing is here you have all of these leading policy makers in the country in and out of the house, coming

into the house, watching this, and no one saying a world. the shame just becomes -- >> you felt the shame. >> oh, my god. i felt like oh, my god, they're going to see. mom, quick, let's get back into don't let any -- you know. i just understood this was not something you that want anyone to see. it's a unique position that you're in. i kept thinking, you know, probably most families would have acted the way your family did. >> oh. i know so many of them who can't talk about their own families' illnesses. you get infected by the pathology of silence. and that is sickening to your soul. >> he writes that while his mother was crippled by her drinking his father was reeling. >> president kennedy died at

>> tell me what's welling up in you. you didn't know bobby. you were 1 years old. >> yeah. but i knew the pain that came from his having been killed because i saw my father kind of live in silent desperation. for most of his life. >> are you weeping for him? >> oh, of course i do. i absolutely grieve for him. >> to this minute. yeah. >> reporter: as people across the country went for bobby, the second kennedy brother assassinated in five years, patrick writes that the family itself dealt with bobby's death the only way they knew how. >> if you think we couldn't talk about my mom, we couldn't talk about my uncle bobby. and the fact that his murder was still so present, you know, in all of our lives because it was unprocessed. >> you actually say that because nobody talked about these things in the family you were all kind of like zombies. you use that word.

"zombies." >> well, we were living in a limbo land where all of this chaos, this emotional turmoil was happening and we were expected just to live through it. >> this is the first time a kennedy has been this open about the family secrets. these particular secrets. are you worried about how the family's going to react? >> i know how some of them are going to react because i've already -- >> they've seen your book? >> yeah, i've shown them the book. >> they're not pleased. >> no. >> they're angry. >> they're angry. >> reporter: chappaquiddick was something else they couldn't talk about. a year after bobby's assassination teddy drove a car off a wooden bridge, drowning his young passenger, mary joe kopekny. he abandoned the scene and didn't tell authorities till the next morning.

this is where you had the conversation with your dad about chappaquiddick. >> this is where i had i guess could you call it a conversation. >> reporter: on the tenth brought patrick, then 12, to this beach in hyannisport specifically to talk about chappaquiddick but then didn't. >> i learned more about this by, you know, looking in the books and newspapers and articles and on tv. >> do you think chappaquiddick had an impact on you? >> i couldn't even talk about it. i was hostage to the family code that no, don't say anything about it. anything you say, it's disloyal, it's against the family code, and it doesn't matter whether it's in a private therapy session. that psychiatrist could go out and tell somebody. >> reporter: the way patrick dealt with it was to drink. he was heavily into alcohol by

the age of 13. >> and nobody in the family either knew or -- >> well, it was ubiquitous. there was alcohol and there was parties all the time.
