captioning funded by cbs welcome to "cbs this morning." president obama says tougher regulations are neated for wall street after the $2 billion loss from jpmorgan chase, but he's also leaning on some big bankers to help him win the election. they're starting to take swings at mitt romney and the republicans are swinging back. bill plan bill plante is at the white house. good morning. >> good morning. he was raising cash at park avenue penthouse at the same time he was attacking mitt romney running as a businessman who put business before people. the obama campaign and the president's super pac are rolling out identical attack ads against romney focused the way he did business. this one is airing in several

swing states for the first time this morning. >> he'll give you the same thing he gave us, nothing. he'll take it all. >> reporter: both ads feature workers who lost their jobs when romney's private ek question capital bain capital closed the steel mill. romney countered with this web video. >> when we started we hat close to 400. now we're over 14,000. >> when others shied away, mitt romney's private sector leadership team stepped in. >> reporter: while the ad wars continued, the president turned his focus from mitt romney's wall street ties and met with new york's financial elite himself at a park avenue fundraiser on monday night. he raised more than $2 million from wall street deal makers telling them i think risk takers should be rewarded. and in an interview monday, he praised the ceo of jpmorgan

chase while at the same time using the bank's enormous trade loss as an example of the need for wall street reform. >> jpmorgan is one of the best managed banks there is. jamie dimon, the head of it, is one of the smartest bankers we've got, and they still lost $2 billion and counting. we don't know all the details yet. it's going to be investigated. but this is why we passed wall street reform. >> mitt romney wants to undo all those protections, roll back wall street reform. >> reporter: what romney says is too much regulation is leading to job loss, that wall street firms are job creators through their investment in business. charlie, erica? >> bill plante, thank you. on wall street monday, shares of jpmorgan lost 3% as financials fell across the board. this morning ceo jamie dimon faces stockholders at the annual

bank meeting in tampa. rebecca jarvis is there. rebecca, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, charlie. >> what do the shareholders want to know about jamie dimon? >> reporter: i think what they want to know is about jamie dimon himself. what was his role in the $2 billion loss? was he at the wheel or, worse, was he aware and knowingly complicit in the risk that the bank was taking on, and that's where shareholders who will be in that meeting in the building behind me later today, they tell me that that's where they're going see the sparks fly in the meeting today because they want answers and so far they're not content with what they received. just a handful of days ago, jamie dimon was calling this loss, which hasn't become a $2 billion loss, he was saying it was the tempest in the teapot. and as we receive obviously, it was much greater than that. and they want to know as the

leader of this company, whether or not his awareness of what's taking place is there and is sufficient to continue into the future. now, nobody at this point is calling for jamie dimon's head, but they certainly want to understand and appreciate where that mind is right now. >> is there expected to be, rebecca, out of the meeting today -- is there expected to be any sort of request or change requested by the shareholders? >> reporter: yeah. shareholders tell me that the number one thing that could change as a result of today's meeting in addition to learning details of what jamie dimon did or did not know is an actionable item that's on the ballot for voting and that's whether or not the chairman title will continue to be held by one man. that is jamie dimon. a number of people have split it in the past and they tell me they would feel more comfortable if the roles were split.

jpmorgan's guargument on the otr hand says it allows for the bank to run more fluidly. and we should say the bank has been profitable. $19 billion in profit last year. when you think in the context of that what this $2 billion loss means, it is a small portion of their overall profitability. >> also, rebecca, when you look at what the board has said, they seem to be very supportive of keeping both of those jobs in the same hands. >> reporter: yes. they're 100% behind jamie dimon, charlie. with us senator dick durbin. he oversees banks. good morning. >> good morning. >> tell us what you want to know. what details, what information do you need in your role at the senate? >> i could care less if a person buy as losing ticket at the kentucky derby but when the

folks at chase decide to gamble money, they're gambling with the taxpayers' money. it sunlt just a loss for the stockholders or the investors. it's a potential loss for american taxpayers and middle income families. why don't we go forward with the volcker rule. it's not in effect until the middle of july. the volcker rule says they should. be engaged in proprietary trading that could endanger their capital positions. the volcker rule is a sensible step forward for more accountability and more transparency. >> would the volcker rule have made what happened at j p morga chase illegal? >> i think so. we're not sure whether it was a proprietary trade. if it was trading its own money,

yes, it would be affected by the volcker rule. what we want is to limit that exposure because if the bank goes south, goes down, we know ultimately it's the farkss, middle income families that end up holding the bag because we lived through this move before. >> the president suggested that needed reform. the reason you - do you say we need more reform or simply need to enforce the reform that's on the books? >> first, the republicans in congress have got to stop their effort to slow down this reform and to starve out the agencies responsible for reform. wat it boils down to is this. we're rewriting rules based on the frank/dodd rule. so they don't have the resources and personnel to write these rules and regulations. that isn't fair. let's do this and do this right so we don't end up in another embarrassing circumstance and

need another bailout. senator, an article in fortune makes the statement that banks are look for a way to make money. how do you feel about that? >> i can tell you there's no question that banks are in business to be profitable, to make money. what we're trying to stop or slow down is something a former chairman called irrational exuberance. when they're betting $100 billion as this wail did with chase, they won, he lost. that's what good managers have to decide every day. >> senator, are you convinced or do you have enough information to believe that what happened to jpmorgan is a violation of the volcker rule, that this was, in fact, proprietary trading? >> it seems like something that jamie dimon said that led us to that conclusion. but in all fair ps, let's get

all the facts out. let's find out exactly what occurred, what money was being at risk, being invested in this trade. >> and also how much of the money that was -- that they have lost in comparison to the size of this institution? is there any evidence that this kind of loss threatened this institution at all? >> no. as a matter of fact it appears that it does not threaten this institution. but if we tend to stand up and defend the nature of this trade, proprietary trading, i think about a smaller capitalized bank, more vulnerable. a financial institution that makes a bet like this and loses and goes under. who ends up holding the bag? it's taxpayers, middle income families across america. it isn't just the swash bucklers on wall street. we don't want to go through that again. >> is there some irony that president obama is talking about banking reform at the same time he's in new york trying to get money from bankers in his

re-election effort? >> let me tell you, if you want to get started on that topic, it was a travesty. it's not foij to be a source of great pride at the end of the day. it's nature of our system, and it should be changed, that too afternoon politicians go to special interest groups to finance chair campaigns. that should come to an end. >> senator durbin, thank you very much. good to see you. >> thank you. new charges have been charged this morning in britain's phone-hacking scandal. rebekah brooks is accused of obstruction of justice. her husband and four others are also charged. brooks calls the charges weak and unjust. for months wall street and the european markets have focused the economic troubles in greece, but a much bigger economy is in trouble, much closer to the united states, in california. according to the most recent estimates, california has the

ninth largest world in the world, economy, that is. greece's economy is fourth and falling. their deficit has now northeasterly doubled and ben tracy found that that is making budget decisions all the more painful. >> reporter: with its skylines, bridges and beaches, california is rich with beauty, but it's also flat broke. $16 billion in the red. >> even though it's a problem, we've got a big achblts the answer is cuts, painful cuts. >> reporter: governor jerry brown is talking about cuts including pay cuts for state employees who would work 4 1/2 days. >> we don't want to be a greece, port gulf or england who got too deep into the hole. >> it's a sfat that's imploding financially, and this crisis has

been going on now for four years. >> peter navarro is an economist at california irvine. >> you cut muscle to the bone and you still got a big debt in california. the only way we get out of this mess is to increase our economic growth. >> california has largely lost its manufacturing base to china. the markets meltdown continues to hurt the state's tax revenue. the university's system, once the crown jewel of the nation, has cut so much tuition has nearly doubled in the last five years. lester hayes is looking at another 6% increase. >> our tuition went up the last quarter and the quart e before. so it's ridiculous. >> governor brown says tax increases are needed. higher sale taxes and income tax on those making more than $300. >> i know what the hell i'm doing. i'm a truthful guy. this is the way it is. if anyone has a better idea,

i'll take it. >> he says if it's not passed, another $6 billion in cuts will need to be made. on "cbs this morning," ben tracey. john edwards' daughter may have to testify in her father's case. >> anna werner is in greensboro, north carolina, and a good morning. >> reporter: good morning erica and charlie. that's correct. cate edwards could take the stand today but edwards' lawyers will not be able to present some testimony that they very much wanted in from a former federal election chairman who was ready to say there was no crime committed here. the jury deciding john edwards' fate won't be hearing some testimony edwards' lawyer think are important to the case.

prosecutor objected arguing his opinions and past s.e.c. rulings are irrelevant to the case. eagles sent the jurors home. thomas told the court in his opinion this is a clear-cut case that the payments were not campaign contributions and thus did not have to be reported at such. even when edward was indicted last jurngs thomas wrote in that the payments would not be considered campaign contributions and they did not violate the constitution of the law but the judge ruled they would be inadmissible. edwards' lawyer an abbie lowe.

on the stand she said she never thought the money from wealthy dough no, sir bunny mellon and fred baron had to be reported to the s.e.c. even after charges were filed against edwards. she said they were not contributions to the campaign to urge the public to vote for mr. edwards. it's still unclear whether edwards himself will testify but the person who's been by his side daily, his daughter kate, could take the stand as early as today. another in fact the lawyers will not be able to use, haggard said yesterday out outside the prince of the jury teen auditors determined the donations were not campaign contributions. >> thank you imtime now to show you this morning's headlines from around the globe.

sully sullenberger is here. do you see this the same? the labor issue? >> it's very frustrating to be in this company where they really won't negotiate with you in good faith and you go almost a decade without a working agreement. >> we have a situation at u.s. air, you know, sully's former airline, where in a situation last year the pilots took out a full-page ad in "usa today" that the airline was operating unsafe. in that situation the airline went to court and got a junction to gag the union. now we have the pilots with this union going back to the same playbook saying the airline is operating in an unsafe situation. >> a lot of people at home, do they have to wonder if when they get on the plane it isn't safe? >> the leadership isn't producing a good safety culture and what we're doing is relying on the initiative and dedication of employees to operate at a

very high level even though they're going to make flaws with the way the airline is managed. >> outsourcing. they're outsourcing for maintenance and carriers. >> when you go on an original airline, you're not achieving the same level of safety that we have at the major airlines. at the regionals, you don't have the same robust safety system in which we operate that you do with the large major airlines. so we still have not, in spite of our best efforts, achieved what we call one level of safety. they're not the same. >> can you go from that statement to this statement, it's less safe to fly because of these kinds of issues. >> it's actually very safe to fly. but what we need to remember is you can't define safety solely as a result of recent accidents and incidents. unless you look further behind the curtain and proactively look at it and mitigate it, you're

not doing what our passengers dserve. >> that's what the pilots are saying. they don't believe the checks and balances are there. >> what they're doing is cross crossing the line. what happened last year at u.s. air is akin to doctors standing in front of a hospital saying, don't go in there, they're going to kill you. and that's really crossing the line. >> and what many people don't realize is when they buy a ticket on a major airline, over half of the scheduled airlines now are flown on regional carriers, not the majors. >> increasingly so. >> and it may say the same name on the side but it's often run by a company who's the lowest bidder. >> we should point out united has issued a statement saying you safety is its highest priority. >> when you hear that, what do

you think when you hear that kind of statement, a anegotiatig tact tactic? >> there are concerns. there are real concerns. i have seen it. i have lived it. my colleagues are still living in flawed safety cultures at major airlines. >> and them you have the union's future at heart as well. for example in the situation with american and u.s. arks they went behind everybody's backs and said, listen, america is going to announce right now in their bankruptcy proceedings they're going to lay off. if you play in our venue, we're only going to lay off 6,000. so would you rather get stabbed or shot. >> it's particularly frustrating for the original us airways employees. because the american pilots have something that the us airways management wants, they're willing to do it in jump a few

weeks what the us airways pilots couldn't get done for years. >> what will be decided in the end? >> the alignment of goals. when there's something in it for everyone. then there'll be a deal. >> we'll see. thank you, peter. thank you, sully. we'll talk with sully again on his position as leader. and tomorrow former defense secretary robert gates will be with us. you're watching "cbs this morning." today's workout is hardcore... and hot! but we'll be pushing it to the extreme. so we use new coppertone sport pro series with duraflex. it's the best coppertone sport ever. it's light so your skin can breathe. but it stays on strong in extreme sweat conditions. it's all about taking it to the next level. that's why we stepped up to pro series.

according to a new study, talking about yourself gives you as much pleasure as eating or having sex. in fact, today donald trump was named the happiest person in the world. a boy from long island, new york, could find out today if he'll be allowed to play on a

girls' field hockey team. >> for two years he played without a problem but as reported the controversy began when he was kicked out. >> reporter: it's a rough-and-tumble sport played with no hats and helmets, just shin guards an a stick. this is field hockey. and for as long as 14-year-old keeling pilaro can remember, this game is his passion. >> i just love playing because it's just so much fun. >> reporter: pilaro was born in the u.s. but raised in dublin, ireland, where the sport is popular. he found out boys didn't play field hockey. girls did. in order to play on a girl's team, head to get special permission from section 11, the group that regulates sports on long island. and even when he was told he had to wear a skirt like the rest of his teammates, he didn't think twice.

>> did you ever get picked on? >> reporter: my friends make jokes. they're not mean. they're funny, sarcastic. >> do you care? >> no. >> reporter: last year he was able to make the varsitiy squad with the eighth greater. he went head to head with girls who tower over him. >> you have to get mostly low. >> reporter: i saw what he lacks in physical hat he makes up with heart. it's that commitment to the sport that quickly won the respect of coaches, teammates and opponents alike. it seems pilaro found a fit until one day this past march -- >> somebody told you you couldn't play for this team anymore. >> yeah. i mean i couldn't believe it. i thought it was a dream and that they would let me play. >> reporter: even though pila pilaro's present on the girl's team was never controversial, section 11 officials, the same committee that allowed to let him play in the first place decided to kick him out. they believe his stick-play and

vapsed field hockey skills had adversely affected the opportunity of females to play the sport. simply put, he got too good. >> you feel he's discriminated against because of his sex. he's not the best player, not the fastest. certainly not the strongest. >> reporter: this is where pilaro plays field hockey and almost everyone from students and teachers to opposing players at other schools want pilaro back on the team. keeling has become such a great part of our program, pilaro's teammates wrote, and for him not to be able to play is going to crush him and all of us. >> and there aren't any other options here on long island for him toplay with other boys his own age. >> reporter: but if the ban is upheld, the particular rows are planning to fight in court using title 9, a 40-year-old law that ensures boys and girls have

equal chances to play in sports. >> it should be supporting my son. >> you know what you're doing is rare. >> we do know that. but this child is rare. this whole situation is quite rare. >> reporter: rare and difficult to win. sim the cynthia augello says removing him from the team is reasonable. >> while he's playing, some female is sitting on the bench. >> he wants to get better and improve his skills is and he's being punished for it. does that seem fair. >> one would think there should be a law that helps him. unfortunately title 9 might not be it. >> why does it mean so much to you? >> because it means so much to him. >> how badly do you want to play on the team? >> so bad. i'm hoping in the end they let me play and change their minds.

>> for "cbs this morning," terrell brown. >> i am a pavement it's a tough thing. you understand why the law was put in place, but like the mom said when terrell asked why dow do you care so much about this. as she said because as a parent he cares so much. >> it's one of those cases where you look at the individual and say there's great justice and at the same time you look at the poufrps the law which has to do wih a lot of people. >> it is kind of funny that field hockey is a female sport in the u.s. i would watch the olympics and say, huh, we don't have boys'

"entitlement" comes up a lot. i don't see that only in baseball but other sports where players used to come to the big leagues, tip the toe into the clubhouse and come in. these players burst onto the scene. they're talented, there's no question. they're in better condition than we were years and years ago. i think the game is better. i think the game is more scrutinized because of technology. but i think the game overall is better because we have players that probably are in better shape than we were years ago. >> will we see a .400 hitter? >> that's tough. i don't think so. 4 out of 10 is tough. we change pitchers too often for that. >> good to see you. >> we want to invite you to dinner. you also, gayle, our safe at home foundation where we put safe rooms in schools and we're

>> did you have something to do with creating jesse? >> i read a book called "stone cold" and i said i're got to play this guy and i brought the book to les and les wanted me to do a movie. >> we've heard of him. >> and i said, you know, this character has legs. he's so flawed. he's kind of like magnum. and les want add movie and he said, sure. he was very polite. but i don't think he ever considered it. i should say something about jesse. you don't have to have seen the other mirrors movies to enjoy t. it isn't plot. it's character bonuses. our movies begin andnd like movies. we're the last one, i guess, movie of the week. >> because of that many people say this is a good time for television. >> yeah. >> whether it's premium television or regular television

obesity problem, but that could soon change. >> there's more fried food in the southeast than in other parts of the country. i love it all. i first came down here 30 years ago and encountered my first meat and three. >> your first what? >> meat item and three choices of vegetables. i love the food here, but i think part of that has led to this obesity issue. >> reporter: mayor karl dean is waging a slow steady battle against the crisis here and throughout the south. tennessee is ranked as having the fourth highest obesity rate in america. >> we're not telling people -- i guess i amteling people what to do in the sense that karl dean is saying, please, exercise more, but no one is enforcing it. everything we've done is entirely voluntary. >> reporter: his strategy, he says, is simple. expand exercise and good new tigers and to lead by example. >> you do this how many days a

week? >> i probably ride the bus two or three mornings a week. i really enjoy it. i think it's great way to start the morning. people are incredibly friendly. >> you get a little exercise in walking to t ing ting t ing tii >> do you want to sit here? >> that's orks mkay, mr. mayor. nice to see you. >> nice to see you. >> reporter: with a $7.5 million stimulus grant mayor dean is transforming nashville into an exercise-friendly city, creating bike paths and parks where they've never existed. but he's most proud of a program that's getting nashvillians moving together. so last april he put out a challenge to get people walking. >> a hundred miles over a couple of months. please join me. i don't care what your fitness level is. and we'll have fun. i don't care what your fitness level is. >> reporter: he launch the st e

office and i couldn't weigh on the scale. and he said -- >> why couldn't you weigh on the scale? >> because i was too heavy for that scale. >> what did it go up to? >> 400 and something. dad said if you want to know how much to way you're going have to go down to farm 'eers co-op and get on the grain scale and i was like, nope, i'm going to lose the weight. >> reporter: and he did. lay lost 200 pounds and now he's determined to keep the weight off. >> i went to being pretty much sedentary, walking at least three time as week now, walking, trying or doing some kind of activity every day, and that's what it takes. >> we are an active city, there's no question about it. we're going to continue to work and build parks and greenways and bike programs and invest in the things that keep a city healthy, and i'm going to keep pushing people to take advantage of them and i'm going keep trying to turn away from that cheeseburger.

to do with defining moments as well. >> it does. but, you know, it starts with core values and the willeness to actually live by them. it starts with as many of the interviewed subjects in the book say being able to check your ego at the door and do things to serve a cause rather than your own needs. >> you say it all boiled down for you a big reflection on kour career. did you find with the people you interviewed where everybody has a defining moment where they say, okay, i'm a leader? >> some did, some didn't. they never had the ambition to be, but the way they had lived their lives, they became a leader. i think one of the big takeaways from the book is you don't have to have a big job or fancy title to be a leader. in fact, many of the leaders we meet in our everyday lives don't but they do make a difference in their lives.

this is something they can do. we can learn to be better at it. we can be more fulfilled at work, being more effective in school. >> does it take one to know one? >> people have certainly seen me that way so i felt anopolygation to live up to the expectations but it's something i thought about. >> interesting the way you lay i it out sort of where that leaders are made or born. tony la russa says one of the priority leadership lessons he teaches ballplayers is you can be the go-to guy kind of like you were. >> i think he proved that by winning the world series again. it wasn't that there was one star that took him all the way through. so by being able to make that personal connection with these players, by very effectively creating this sense of teamwork, everybody shares a responsibility for the outcome. he proved how effective that can be. >> do you feel that's harder these days. we see the stories and people talk about how selfish we become
