welcome to "cbs this morning." it's good to be back. vice president joe biden is in new york with ceremonies marking the 14th anniversary of the september 11th attacks. on the "late show" with stephen colbert last night, bind talked emotionally about another moment of loss. >> it was his first tv interview about the death of his son beau. bind explains how the pain makes it harder to decide whether to run for president. the conversation had a remarkable amount of depth for late night tv. >> my son was better than me. he was better than me in almost every way. when he was in that accident and lost his mom and his sister, he was very badly injured. almost every bone in his body was broken. he was in a cast from his ankles, both legs, arms, a hook in his chest. i used to carry him around with

a hook in the back. he'd sit in the room in the hospital and turn and say, hon', look at me, look at me, i love you, i love you. 4 years old. nothing changed. a couple months before he died, i was at his house and he said, dad, sit down, i want to talk to you. he said, dad, i know how much you love me, so you've got to promise me something. promise me you're going to be all right because no matter what happens, dad, i'm going to be all right. i don't think any man or woman should run for president unless, number one, they know exactly why they would want to be president, and, two, they can look at the folks out there and say, i promise you you have my whole heart, my whole soul, my energy and my passion to do this. and i'd be lying if i said that i knew i was there.

it's a -- i went out to denver and landed at a military base. i met a whole group of military families, which is not unusual about 100 yards from the aircraft. 200 were in uniform and others were family members. i was thanking them. i really meant it. 1% for 99% of the rest of us. i talked about them being the backbone and sin you of this country and all of a sudden it was going great and a guy in the back yells, met your beau biden, brown star, sir, served with him in iraq, and all of a sudden, i lost it. how could you -- how -- i mean that's not -- i sho'tuldn be saying this, but that -- you -- you can't do that. >> i think that your experience and your example of suffering and service is something that

would be sorely missed in the race. not that there aren't good people on both sides running, but i think we'd all be very happy if you did run, and if you don't, i know that your service to the country is something we should all salute, so thank you so much. thank you. ladies and gentlemen. >> this was a remarkable conversation. i watched the entire thing this morning. >> i did too. >> stephen handled it well. he went right to it after some opening things. interesting thing about the vice president. he talked about his suffering, but he said, look, a lot of people in the country have gone through the same thing i have. we're focusing on me, but this has happened to a lot of people, the loss of people who mean everything to them. >> and stephen colbert talked about the loss of his father and brother in a plane crash. it was an unusual night and you could tell the aud wednesday was paying attention. that was nice to see. very personal and very raw. >> good for both.

>> i think so too. donald trump and ben carson are way up and scott walker is way down. polls show that trump is in the lead with 27%, ben carson in second with 27% and ted cruz is third. walker who led the iowa poll just two months ago has fallen from 18% to 3%. cnn has presented the lineup for next week's prime-time debate. rand paul, mike huckabee, marco rubio, ted cruz, ben car sop, donald trump, jeb bush, scott walker, carly fiorina, and john kasich, and then there's chris christie too. this morning a gunman who took hostages after a high-speed chase in california is dead. >> looks like a pit. oh, whoa, whoa. >> the man ran away from officers after crashing a car. he allegedly stole. he then barricaded himself inside a restaurant.

he was carrying a gun. > we were eating dinner and a man yelled get down, get down and then he yelled all women and babies get out and i grabbed my children. >> dozens who were inside poured into the parking lot with their hands in the air as heavily armed police surrounded the building. >> get back, get back, get back. >> reporter: approximately an hour later a s.w.a.t. team made its way inside. when the suspect refused to put down his weapon, sheriff's deputies fatally shot him. he was holding at least four hostages. the initial chase was sparked by a pair of carjackings earlier thursday evening. >> look at that. another sharp turn. >> i seen him run up and before i could react he had the gun in my face. >> it's been a difficult night

for the people in tess straunlt as well as those who had contact. >> reporter: authorities say the hostages who were inside the restaurant appeared to be unharmed. norah, the restaurant said his employees were courageous and he praised them and the customers for coming together. >> indeed. carter, thank you so much. police in phoenix this morning are looking at thousands of tips in their hunt for a freeway shooter. 11 vehicles have been struck by projectiles over the past two weeks. sources tell cbs news some bullets came from the same gun. mireya ville a has more. >> reporter: cars have come under fire on interstate 10 right below me, and sources say they have no suspects at this time. with one or possibly several shooters on the loose, the 206 live cameras inside this traffic

pierced this commercial truck. four new incidents are under investigation including one reporting by corinne packer. >> it with us very scary. i was shaken up, crying. it's like something that happened to someone else or something you see on the news. you don't think it's going to happen to you. >> reporter: interstate 10 is the major artery to the stadium where the cardinals will play their opening game. >> reporter: the troopers are worried about drivers' safety, so they're offering a $20,000 tip for anyone who can lead them to tips. the f joint terrorism task force arrested joshua goldberg yesterday f yesterday at his parents' house. jeff pegues is in washington with new details. good morning. >> good morning. the investigators originally thought the suspect was recruiting people to kaye out attacks in straichl turns out

who have been hurt and yet, i'm not going to embarrass you, but you're one of them, little buddy. no, no, no, no. your mom, your family, losing your dad, your kid and three brothers. i mean, you know, it's just -- it's like asking what made your mother do it every day. how did she get up every single day wiyoth, u know, 11 kids. i mean -- >> she had to take care of me, you know. i like to make a little joke. oh, yes, i raised my mother. in what ways did beau and hunter raise you? >> my boys, honest to god did. if you saw -- if my son hunter was here, the first thing he'd walk in and give me a kiss and say, dad, do you need anything? always worried about me. >> such a close family. that's why i think that pain is so difficult. but it was a wonderful conversation between the two of

them. >> it was such a personal conversation that you don't often see. >> yeah. they took us there. >> very human when you see a side of joe biden, a man in pain in public. >> yeah. and colbert's "late show" is quickly becoming a go-to place of big names. now donald trump and ted cruz will soon join the ed all van theater. sometimes it's not easy to mix politics and personality. >> reporter: gop front-runner donald trump is in some circles derided as a celebrity act, the kind of 20th century vaudevillian. okay. but is there really anything new about politicians trying to be celebrities or at least wants to bask in vary validating glow?

of course, not. doing so can sometimes give a campaign a welcome jolt like ellen degeneres's crowd came to her defense over the e-mail scandal. >> we're held to a higher different double standard and it gets a little old to be honest. >> reporter: and the obligatory dance with ellen can make moves. and carly fiorina, bernie sanders, and chris christie. >> reporter: all an effort to put some pop in politic, some humanity in a largely dehumanizing presidential process. rick perry used david letterman to make up for his famous 2012

oops moment. >> three -- >> reporter: john edwards allowed david to play with his notoriously perfect hair. and barack obama notoriously played along with jon stewart. >> i want you to hope up to the common phrases you hear. >> i'm calling to find out if you're happy with your cell phone service. >> reporter: and bill clinton ripped his way into late night history with his saxophone solely on arsenio hall. >> and oprah asked the question. >> i know people have talked to you about whether or not you would run. would you ever? >> probably not. >> the strategy can backfire. john kerry driving his motorcycle on stage. and jeb bush. and john mccain blew off

letterman to his ever lafgt late-night regret. >> i screwed up. >> don't screw it up. for"cbs this morning," major garrett, washington. >> that's fun. >> it is fun. you're so used to seeing politicians work with their talking points. they very seldom get out their talking points. any time you see them in a moment of humanity. >> authenticity is king. >> it works. it can work. >> it can work. >> you think only millennials take selfies? even andy warhol one of america's most famous

is your gut bacteria or lack of it making you fat? our dr. tara narula is a leading cardiologist. she's in our toyota green room with the results from a surprising new study. that's next on "cbs this morning."

i needed work done around my house at a fair price.f sure can. so i could get a faulty light switch fixed? yup! or make a backyard pizza oven? oh yeah. i can almost taste it now. tastes like victory. and pepperoni... i guethought to the acidity much in any foods. never thought about the coffee i was drinking having acids. it never dawned on me that it could hurt your teeth. my dentist has told me your enamel is wearing away, and that sounded really scary to me, and i was like well can you fix it, can you paint it back on, and he explained that it was not something that grows back, it's kind of a one-time shot and you have to care for it. he told me to use pronamel. it's gonna help protect the enamel in your teeth. it allows me to continue to drink my coffee and to eat healthier, and it was a real easy switch to make.

myleaves me feeling locked up. that's called opioid-induced constipation, or oic. a different kind of constipation. it's been a real struggle to find relief. paint a different picture. talk to your doctor about oic and prescription treatment options. look more like a tissue box... you may be muddling through allergies. try zyrtec® for powerful allergy relief. and zyrtec® is different than claritin®. because it starts working faster on the first day you take it. zyrtec®. muddle no more™ .

i was going to the library to do my homework. it was a little bit of a walk to get to the bus stop. i had to wait in line to use the computer. took a lot of juggling to keep it all together. what's possible when you have high-speed internet at home? the library never closes. it makes it so much better to do homework when you're at home. internet essentials from comcast. helping to bridge the digital divide.

in our "morning rounds" the gut/heart connection. a new study finds that our gut bacteria is linked to weight, gut, and fat levels. dr. narula is a cardiologist at lenox hospital. i asked people if they knew what it was? no one did but peter said i dated one in college. what is it and what does it do? >> basically we have co-evolved and developed a symbiotic relationship with hundreds of trillions of bacteria that live in our die jess tick track. they don't just affect food and digest but they affect a lot of other systems. they have been shone to reduce the risk of cancer and increase it and now to eventually affect our cardiovascular health. this particular study took blood and fecal samples and use thad and was able to find a link

between the bacteria or micro-organisms in the gut and your body mass index, your hdls, and your triglycerides. they account for differences of about 4% in your body mass, 6% in triglycerides and 4% in hdl. >> how can we pat them on the back and say thank you. >> that's a great question. >> that's what he does. >> how can we improve our microbiome and improve the good and bad. >> there's a couple of things you can do. eating a diet that's good in fruits and vegetables, lower red meat, prebiotics and probiotics can help. but it's create over time. by the time you're born, whether you're cesarean or vaginal it

starts to affect your gut. then the diet you eat throughout your life. in addition the environmental you're raised in. whether you're in new york city or where you live in the country you're exposed and the antibiotics you take and the hand sanitizers. >> should we wave a warning over the use of antibiotics? >> definitely. i think the most is how it affects the heart. we know obesity is linked to cardiovascular disease. they've taken experiments of taking lean mice and given them the bacteria of obese mice and they become obese. the bacteria in the gut affect bile production. it's extra cholesterol. finally if you eat a diet high in choline it produces a product called tmao that causes early

plaque formation and raises the risk of heart and stroke. >> we did a study. eat more sauerkraut and pickles and yogurt. >> i eat myogurt every morning. dr. tara narula, thanks so much. >> thank you. ahead, a tragic mystery on the water. >> reporter: i'm peter van sant of "48 hours." it happened here on the hudson river. an endwajed couple goes kayaking. after he goes missing, the police charge her with murder. >> please call somebody. >> the exclusive 911 tape coming up on "cbs this morning." >> announcer: cbs morning rounds sponsored by cottonelle. go cottonelle, go commando. did you notice anything about the texture? it's very...functionally efficient.

this is the equivalent of your muscles. it just gets a hold of everything. yeah. nothing's left behind. nothing. are you clean enough to go commando?

charged her with second-degree murder and manslaughter. she was accuse of tampering with vincent's paddle and removing the blug on his kayak so it would fill up with water. the d.a.'s office and state police turned down our request for an interview, but angel leka's defense team has conducted various experiments they claim raise some questions about the state's case >> and we're going to have the water come over the kayak and see just how much water goes into the plug. >>f/ sounds good. let's check it out and see how much water we've got inside. nice and slow. >> sure. >> this bottle is 16.9 ounces. less than an ounce. >> that's it? >> yes. >> what does this tell you.

>> that for what wouldn't fill a shot glass, a woman sitting in jail being charged with a murder. >> wow. peter van sant. there's in evidence when you look at this. >> we have some new evidence that we can't talk about this morning that we're going to have on our show tomorrow night. but it's profound and it will change people's perception of this case which has had nationwide publicity as to whether a murder took place on that river. >> well sheerks definitely been judged with all that's in the press and all that you've read about her. >> she has been. but in prosecutorial documents, remember, she said some very incriminating things, that she was happy he was gone, that she was pleased with that. that brought a lot. >> this may have been an accident. >> it may be. >> watch for all that new information. that's a new episode of "48

think we always will. it's something we've forward to for so many years. everyone took a part in it. >> what was different this time? >> you know, i think if we knew that answer, then we'd probably do it every time. we don't know the reason for that. we just know we came together as a team more than ever and it felt like home games. canada almost felt like we were at a home world cup. had so many american fans coming to the games. that helped us. >> you have loved the game since you were a little girl. i loved in the book where your mom saved a note you wrote when you were 8 years old. i asked them to pull that note i was so impressed. look at this. hi, mommy, my name is alex. go ahead. >> i'm going to be a professional soccer player. love you. al alli cat.

>> your dad said he always knew. >> he pushed me the right amount. it's okay to push kids into something but not too much. you want them to naturally gravitate. i think that's why me and my dad have such a great relationship. >> how did you know? what was struck by you at that age this is what i want to do and this is what i want to be and this is a goal i have? >> it's weird. i do have that sticky note and my mom kept it for so long. obviously she thought i was going to make it big in soccer. she didn't think twice about it. it was up on her office wall for so long. i had this feeling. you sacrifice so much along the way. you become so committed because you love the game so much. >> you said never look a goalkeeper in the eye. why? what does that mean? do you know what that means? >> no. >> playing sports, they're so physical but mental and emotional. it's just the fact that i'm in

control of my own emotions and in control of my mind. so it's a way for me not to let the keeper get into me. >> and they probably want to do it and say you can't get that ball past mer. >> or sometimes coopers will point left or right and it makes you think she's pointing should i go the opposite way. it's a little bit of a mind game. >> you speak so warmly about abby wambach in this book. what was so special, do you think, about this year's team? >> you know, we had a lot of bad turns on this team and abby was one of them. i look up to abby. honestly, she's been a rig big mentor to me throughout the national team career so it's great to be able to finally get this world cup for her, the team, the country. she's had the best career and all she was waiting for was that world cup title. she got it. it's pretty amazing to be on that ride with her. >> is there a sense that this is going to give a great push to

women's soccer? >> i think so. i think we've seen that in the last couple of years. obviously it's going to take a long time eventually. just soccer and america has been growing, but it's sloi. it's slow and steady. but i think for women's sports -- i don't think just women's sports but soccer, it's going to help other countries who may not give as much funding for the women's teams, it may give more insight and give an increase to women's soccer. >> you wrote in 1999 you were watching mia hamm and brandi chastain saying i want to be like them. and now people are looking at you, alex and going, i want to be like alex. what's that like to be in that position? you got to play with your friends. what does that mean that girls are sitting at home thinking, i want to be her. >> i did look up to me and

brandi that way. so many girls have a big opportunity that 20 years ago they didn't have in sports. so i think it's important for me to be able tohow t that and help them spark that dream. >> this book is perfect for teen girls. >> yes. thank you, alex. the book is called "break-away" and it's on sale now. this morning a look at an da

andy, a spokesman said you could not be described as an original sculpture. do you agree with that? >> yes. >> why do you agree with that? because it's a copy. >> why would you do that? why not create something new. >> because it's easier to do. >> that's authentic. >> very much. how much do they sell for now? >> in that 1965 interview andy warhol did not fight misconceptions. he quietly preferred to change

glamorous and the best she could possibly look. >> reporter: warhol it turns out was an almost obsessive collector, amazing thousands of polaroids. the earliest ones from 1958. >> remember polaroids when we first had them. i think of them as disposable and nothing you would necessarily keep. >> he kept everything. >> reporter: michael is the director of the licensing foundation. he began sifting through these frats 18 years ago. >> the difference about warhol is he didn't differentiate life from work. everything he did was life as an artist and these photos speak to that. >> reporter: some of the polaroids became warhol's famous silk screens. others he studied for later works. many of them simply chronicled life. all of them revealed the eye of

it. >> and if seeing the polaroid isn't enough for you. christie's is auctioning off photos this month. they're expected to command up to $25,000. >> talk to me about this one here. >> andy seems to have had some kind of fetish with shoes, with feet throughout his life. it was something -- a kind of motif that he returned to time again and again. >> the polaroid's instagram. documenting virtually everything. it's just that he did it years before anyone ever heard of the internet or social media. >> andy warhol carried around either a camera or tape recorder with him most tty amazing how obsessive he was about life and now looking in the current context of seeing how we've become. >> what do you think he would do with social media today?

>> i think immediately you would embrace it. but the one thing i love about war hall is he was predictably unpredictable. he was doing things with it that we couldn't do with it a that time. i think he would embrace it but use it in a way that we're not thinking of right now. >> the book is on sale now for 1 x $00. thank you so much. we want to pause now to bring in viewers from other parts of the country to honor victims of the september 11th attack. 14 years ago today, nearly 3,000 people were killed in the 9/11 attacks. the president and first lady rb to leave. a moment of silence at the white house. another ceremony is taking place in lower manhattan where the first hijacked plane hit the
