3:36 am
what that means. you know, i have gotten more votes than anybody running. on either side. i have gotten more votes than donald trump, although i am sure he doesn't want to hear that. and we have gotten it from a wide, broad base. i have gotten in the democratic primary, election, i have gotten more white voters except for the state of vermont all told. all told i have had more support from white voters. i feel really good about where our campaign is and where it is going. >> in places like ohio, massachusetts, there are reports that democrats, switching over changing their registration, becoming republican sews they can vote for donald trump. aren't those voters you are going to want back. how do you get them back? >> well, i want to get every voter back. i will keep working during the primary to earn every vote. and make it clear i am running an inclusive campaign the i want
3:37 am
americans not just some of them. and i hope that, as we move forward, people will be giving a second, third look to all of the candidates. and that includes me. it include, mr. trump. so i am going to keep reaching out. and demonstrating unequivocally if people are frustrated, discouraged, upset by what is happening in the economy or the government or political system, that i come ready, prepared, to do what's necessary to make progress. i think that is a very strong case. >> let me ask you a question about something in the news this week, brian pagliano, former state department staffer, who was granted immunity from prosecution into the criminal server. when this happens. worry somebody is going to get >> well there is no basis for that. i am delighted that he has agreed to cooperate as everyone
3:38 am
and i think that we'll be moving toward a resolution of this. >> so you see -- >> after all. >> yeah, i do. absolutely. i think we are getting closer and closer to wrapping this up. >> the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. ws on tv now, i'm walking them. life is unpredictable being flake free isn't. because i have used head and used regularly, it removesr up to 100% of flakes keeping you protected

me. for massage and intimacy. every touch, gently intensified. a little touch is all it takes. k-y touch. marco rubio won the gop primary in puerto rico. but remains far behind in the delicate count. -- behind in the delegate count. ted cruz says he is the only republican that can block donald trump from winning the presidential nomination. saturday, cruz won in kansas and maine. trump won louisiana and kentucky. both trump and cruz spoke to nation." >> conservatives talked about the coarsening of the culture and job of a conservative politician to stand up and say
3:41 am
has this campaign improved the culture? or made it worse? >> well, listen, there is no doubt there are aspects of the campaign that have gone into the gutter. we saw moments with donald trump and marco rubio engage in insults. offcolor jokes, nastier and throwing mud. my approach, i am not going to play, not going to engage in the insults and throw the mud. i don't have the views on the size of any parts of donald trump's anatomy. i am not interested in talking about that. what i am interested in talking about is issues facing american people. millions are facing stagnant wages not having jobs. my top priority is bringing back jobs and raising wages. we will do that by revealing obama care, passing a flat tax. abolishing the irs, stopping amnesty, securing the border that's my priority. >> you said last week talked, donald trump is entertaining. it's entertaining. other stuff slips in that's the way in which conservatives i talk to for years have said that's the way the culture
3:42 am
it's the job of a politician to stand up and say no there are guardrails here. >> listen, think about what presidents have meant in history. lincoln's gettysburg address. fdr, only thing we have to fear is fear itself. jfk, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. i think people at home are asking themselves, how would we feel if our children came in repeating the word of the president of the united states. if that president was donald trump. if it would embarrass you to have your children repeat the word of the president, that's not a good thing. a president should unifiep, appeal to our better angels, appeal to our shared val use that make america who we are. and that is how i am trying to campaign. i think that's what the american people are looking for. >> donald trump said there need to be flexibility on m immigration. you talked "the new york times." and off the record conversation. he is right of course. negotiation. flexibility. right? >> he is most absolutely not right. but it was a stunning aspect of the debate.
3:43 am
flexibility. flexibility. flexibility. that's one of the reasons why we are selling now, yoga mats on our website. tedcruz.org. they're breathe yoga mats. if you find yourself, boiling over with rage. spend time doing yoga. breathing maybe help you relax. listen, conservatives are used to seeing republican candidates run to the right in the primary. run to the left in the general. part of the reason we are frustrated. angry. we are tired of politicians lying to us. what was amazing about the debate, john, donald is running to the left. he is not out of the primary. in the debate this week. donald stood up there and said to marco rubio, i agreen with you, i understand why you compromised and were flexible negotiating with chuck schumer on the gang of eight. this is the donald trump who has made immigration the centerpiece of his campaign. who said he agreed with marco rubio supporting the gang of eight amnesty bill. stunning. >> last question, something that
3:44 am
you talk about he is going to be a president. you can't let your children watch tv. marco rubio says he is a con all these terrible things. at the end you are asked if you doesn't that undermine the danger to conservatism and >> listen, one, hillary clinton catastrophic. a third term of barack obama. i cannot support hillary clinton. number two at the outset of the campaign. i promised i would support the republican nominee. i am some one who keeps his word. past week on super tuesday. in the state of texas. we won an overwhelming victory by 17 points. that was particularly meaningful. the people of texas, they know me. and they know my heart. they are people i made promises to. i ran for senate. you elect me. i will lead the fight against obama care. amnesty, lead the fight against our debt.
3:45 am
religious, the bill of rights. the reason we won in texas, texas said, ted you kept your word. i will tell you, john. as president i will do the very same thing. >> mr. trump you are bringing a lot of new people into the republican party. some people are saying they want to leave the republican party too. what is your message to those who want to leave? good riddance? >> i think they shouldn't leave. i think they should get together. i think everybody should be unified. we are building up numbers incredible within the republican party. you have been seeing, south carolina, new hampshire, the numbers are astronomical. i don't think they have ever seen anything like this, actually. by the way the democrats are losing. democrats are going down, 35%, 40%. we are going up 50%. couple states over 100%. >> what do you make of the effort to try to take the
3:46 am
>> i am very surprised by it. very surprised to hear third party the i will appoint conservative judges. and a third party would mean that him ear would win or who ever is going to be running. you are going to have liberal judges as many as four or even five if you can belief that during this, period of time. so a third party means absolutely they will have four or five very liberal judges appointed as owe posed to four or five, very conservative judges. i think it is really playing with fire. >> they say they can't be in the party with you as head of it? >> i've don't understand that. i get along with people. very much a unifier. maybe people don't see that. they will see that. my relationship to people has been great over the years. again. i am new to politics. been doing this now for seven months. i think i have done a very good job in seven months. but we have a tremendous number of people coming in and showing up to volt. the lines in all the states that i have won have been record setting.
3:47 am
said about paul ryan you hope to get along with. if you didn't. he will have to pay a big price. you said about john mccain. he has to be very careful. how can you be a unifier when you are saying those things about two republicans. >> i think he would pay a big price. you'd really have a split party. a very split party. he has done a good job. i may be mr. conservative than him. i am stronger on the border. but he has done a very good job. i was in favor of paul ryan. he very much is a unifier. he was sort of chosen i think. >> a lot read that as a threat. >> not ape threat. not a threat. >> paul ryan said, if a person wants to be the nominee of the republican party. no evasion and no games. they must reject any group or cause built on bigotry. he was talking about you. >> i have rejected. how many times do i have to reject. i reject david duke. rejected david duke. i have rejected the kkk, the ku

3:49 am
question was asked. i rejected it there. news conference was a day before. how many times do i have to reject or disavow. >> let me ask you this question. david duke is saying to his supporters and followers, vote for donald trump. white supremacists are saying. do you want the votes? >> i don't want them. i don't want him to. i can't help it. if he says it. but i don't want it. john, if he says it, he says it. do i want it, no. no, i don't want anything. >> white supremacists. >> i don't like any group of hate. hate groups are not for me. but i have said this before -- the press hates me to say it. they just don't want to pick it up. >> you are turning, thinking more about the general election. in december last year, you said, talking hillary clinton. we view this as the war. then you asked the audience, don't we view this as war? do you still view it as war? >> little bit.
3:50 am
