>> about 11 degrees and windchill about 3 below. >> brave people out there. you all deserve big hugs. >> yeah. >> willie is going to come out there and give you a biggal. >> or we can brick them in and give them a big mug. >> i'm not going out there. maybe we had this coming it was so warm for so long. now we're getting hit with cold. i'm willie along with natalie, al and tamron. today's morning jam is? >> a coldplay song. >> "adventure of a lifetime." >> the video is spectacular. >> always amazing. >> super bowl performers, halftime show. >> huge. >> that's right. guys, we're less than four weeks to the iowa caucuses right now. let's talk a little bit about what could be the next president. united states. donald trump in a new nbc new survey monkey moll. >> can i just say something. >> survey monkey. >> can we come up with a better name. >> they do a great job, al. >> survey moaning, like opinion arrange tang, you know. >> we should find the back story.

>> good question. >> wouldn't it be great if you went to their office and there's a bunch of chimps working everything. >> right now all the employees at survey moaningy. >> bananas. >> thanks, al roker. >> nbc news, i'm proud of our partnership with survey monkey. wonderful job. >> a lot of money for that. >> pay them in cash and bananas, fantastic. >> they sit there -- first they poll people and then they start picking bugs off each other, grooming each other. >> this was happens when you try to talk politics. >> it's a reputable real poll. >> it's got moaningies. >> nbc news. >> an online poll that shows donald trump at 35 boston holding a 17-point lead over ted cruz and 22 points over marco rubio who is in third place. let's look at the democratic side. hillary clinton leading bernie sanders, again in the national poll, by 17 points, 53-36. there.

>> the rations are much closer in iowa and new hampshire on the democratic side which is actually what's important as we start this. now, yesterday bill clinton hit the campaign trail for the first time in earnest. campaigning for his wife in new hampshire, and they are up against this issue of how to handle donald trump. >> yeah. >> hillary clinton has not been hesitant to go after him, but it appears in the new year there's a new approach to sort of ignore the donald. >> the republicans will have to decide who they are going to be nominating. >> i'm interested in your response to the donald's comment that you and president obama created isis. >> i have adopted a new year's resolution resolution. i'm going to let him live in his alternative reality, and i'm not going to respond. >> so there you go. >> yeah. >> andrea mitchell had actually asked president clinton in that clip we showed but thought about

>> right. >> you could almost see the president biting his tongue and saying, you know what, we'll let republicans sort that out. let them settle their fight and we'll meet them in the general election. >> the strategy is interesting because chris christie tried it last year, jeb bush said he would ignore donald trump and eventually they were pulled into the fray, so others have tried to their peril because people who tried to ignore donald trump ended up at the bottom end of the poll, but it's interesting on that rope line with andrea mitchell and bill clinton, chuck todd also said that bill clinton is famous for letting loose on the rope line. that's where you really get him to answer a question without the standard, you know, list of points that they like to hit, but the strategy is really to keep bill clinton locked in until they are ready i guess to unleash. >> it's amazing on the republican side, as you said, how few people are going after donald trump. almost as they conceded. jeb bush, interviewed him earlier this morning on "morning joe," he is going after donald trump.

went after him yesterday in new hampshire. >> none of the campaign ads. >> it's rubio against cruz and these others. >> donald trump gets a free ride and has not had to spend a lot of money for advertising. >> working for him. >> because we're always talking about him. >> working in the na polls, but the polls out of iowa could be an interesting night for tet cruz, especially if he brings in his father who is a minister and certainly will appeal to the evangelicals. >> how quickly things can change, to, in a drum beat. a lot of people talking about changes in the new year. we talked about resolutions. many of you have now the have made diet resolutions so you'll be interested in what "u.s. news & world report," released their annual list of the best diets. in the category the best diets overall, no surprise, weight watchers is always in the top, number three on the list. >> just saw the new oprah weight watchers ad for the first time over the holidays. >> so revealing and so powerful. >> number two is a tie between tlc which is cutting down on high cholesterol diet.

>> you only eat when the channel is on. >> and then there's that not the case cutting high cholesterol and also the mind diet which focuses on preventing alzheimer's disease, eating grain healthy foods, a lot of the mono unsat rated good fats in your diet, the dash diet, focuses on lowering high blood pressure by cutting back on salt, eating more vegetables, whole grains, eliminating sweets, red meat. >> that's from the mayo clinic. >> i haven't heard of any of these, not a one of them. >> not heard of any of these. >> because you haven't been needing to diet, i suppose, right? >> you've got a good thing going. dr. natalie azar best not to remove overall food categories. to obviously check with your doctor, whatever. so i -- i'm not on a diet but i decided to test myself because i'm terrible with any of these cleanses or any -- i've tried juice clensz, tried whatever.

normally, there's no reason to do it and i think most people say why do it if you don't need to, but for me it was more like mind control, can i do it. >> kind of like detoxification so i felt like i needed something after doing way too much drinking and eating over the holidays, a soup cleanse, super pure based out in los angeles. they will be launching nationally, but it kind of takes the juice cleanse to more of a nutritional. >> a couple of these look like specimens. >> this one is asparagus, they are delicious, made with organic ingredients ingredient w in it that cleanses you? >> the whole idea you're drinking rather than -- >> it's more liquids rather than solids. >> okay. >> it's that same idea but it's more filling, but the funny thing is i wrote to my friend who is doing this. we keep each other and hold each other accountage, don't like it, snowfall. >> would you send this over to the lab for me.

raw misto. >> pineapple, basil, cucumber, go try it. >> it's pineapple water. >> i've been punked before. you're not getting me. >> look what al drinks in the morning. >> okay. >> what looks worse, al's cleanse. >> ginger, mint, and that's. >> and this which is a healthy pineapple basil cucumber alkaline water. >> just an elaborate way to shut me up. >> chug it. >> it's delicious. >> you know what, your sister sent that. >> tastes like water. >> so nice. >> you've got green stuff in your teeth. >> wow. >> look in the archives. >> back to what you're doing. >> it's two day. >> this is all you're ingesting all day. >> got a couple more soups, but it's -- >> can you eat solid food. >> you can if you're doing a mini cleanse. >> i'm doing the full on there's the sweet potato one already.

>> had you hangry? >> i'm going to give you credit, amy crh ho n. yesterday i had three bites of shame on you. >> so the good news is you'll be >> right. i'll just keep drinking this and >> this is day two. >> okay. we'll see what happens tomorrow. >> chicken broth. you want to try, it tamron? >> absolutely not. is there a cupcake. i am from texas. listen, the other white meat, the wheel meat, no, i can't do that. many my cleanse is a t-bone. >> i figured if i can stick with it, and i'm terrible at this. >> good. >> good for you. >> you can do it. >> wait to go. >> whatever. >> we're supporting. >> you go, natalie. >> you are doing something we could never do. >> couldn't do it. >> i've done a cleanse. >> you do clensz all the time. >> but maybe once a year, probably going to do one again in a couple of weeks, by eat

>> is that a cleanse if you eat solid food? >> it's like a detox, rather than cleanse. that's a detox. >> that's what this whole idea is. i think it's i need a restart. >> oh, okay cool. >> i'm still having mountain dew for breakfast. >> meanwhile, just when you thought the matt/ellen prank of last year, the prank wars were over. no, no. no, it's back on, if you were wondering. on her show yesterday ellen showed a video of an interesting moment in matt's interview back in november with adele when she visit visited. take a lock. >> i mate a resolution in 2016 i was not going to mess with matt lauer anymore. instead i'll show you this clip of him interviewing adele. hello from the other side >> i never said this to a woman sitting across from me but can i hold your hand for a second. >> oh, yeah.

if you're looking for newer next big binge check out the netflix new docu series "making a murderer." >> quickly became a phenomena and has more than 200,000 people petitioning the white house. we'll talk to the film-makers in a moment but first more on the story. >> truth is stranger than fiction. bullet netflix documentary series "making a murderer "asks what is the truth? >> i think -- i've had a good started. >> reporter: it's the story of steven avery, a man who served 18 years in prison for rape until he was exonerated by dna evidence, but four years after his release he was convicted of murder there isa halback in >> i didn't do it. >> what do it? >> i don't know. >> an article about his case got the attention of film-makers laura ricciardi and moira demos.

series it was a question of how is the american criminal justice system functioning? is it delivering on its promises of truth and justice, and we thought steven avery would be an amazing window through which to look at the system. >> the documentary casts doubt on some of the evidence accused to convict avery in his murder trial, including the confession by averies's 16-year-old inch u, dassey. >> who shot her in the head? >> he did. >> why didn't you tell us that? it. >> some recompense. >> one of avery's attorneys at his murder trial tried to show that avery was framed by local law enforcement. >> the system that allowed his conviction on this evidence was a system that did not do honor to the basic precept of proof beyond a reasonable doubt. >> it ended in the hands. >> the prosecutor in the case says the series left out significant evidence against avery that was included in the

claim avery was framed, quote, is irresponsible and inconsistent with a consideration of all the evidence presented. the film-makers support any steps to bring justice and closure, particularly for the woman who was murdered. >> our goal going in was always to start a dialogue, and i'm sure -- you know, a piece of that dialogue is people's desire to have, you know, more information about what happened to teresa h ha lback, and if somebody find more information, i think that's a good thing. i think that's what she deserves. >> laura ricciardi and moira demos produced and wrote and directed "making a murderer" and have news to share about the case. thanks for joining us. in hour last hour you were speaking about a juror in the case where steven avery was convicted of murder and that juror now has had a big revelation. what can you tell us about that. >> sure. the juror contacted us directly and told us that the verdicts in steven's trial were a compromise.

the jury used and went on to describe the jurors ultimately trading votes in the jury room and explicitly discussing if you vote guilt on this count, i will vote not guilty on this count, so that was a significant revelation. >> that's a very serious charge, obviously, moira, one that could turn the case on its head. have you been able to independently verify that say with another juror? >> we've not spoken to other jurors. this juror reached out directly to us. they told us really that they were afraid that if they held out for a mistrial that it would be easy to identify which juror had done that, and they were fearful for their own safety, and what they explained to us was they believed that if there was a split verdict like this, that that would send a message to the appellate courts, and they thought that steven would get a new trial. that was sort their plan. >> oh. >> but obviously it didn't work out that way.
