knows how to play the goesing game. >> indeed. thank you very much. another primary win for bernie sanders is prolonging the democratic race. his victory in west virginia doesn't change hillary clinton's overall lead, but it is one more bump in her path to the general election. sanders beat clinton by 15 points, 51-36%. cbs news estimates he earned at least 16 delegates, and she got at least 11. clinton needs another 144 to clinch the nomination. nancy cordes is in louisville, kentucky, where the democratic front-runner could face more obstacles in next week's primary. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. that's right, oregon is up next tuesday. it's the kind of progressive, mostly white state where sanders typically does very well. and he was there celebrating his west virginia win last night. and so the clinton camp is putting more time, more money into this state, kentucky, which also votes next week and where clinton won in a landslide last time around. >> we've
7:12 am
in west virginia! [ applause ] >> reporter: sanders capitalized tuesday on opposition to clinton that runs so deep in west virginia, 43% of sanders voters say they'll defect to trump in the fall if clinton is the nominee. a massive shift in a state clinton won by about 41 points in 2008. this time her record on free trade hurt her. so did this slipup -- >> we're going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business. >> reporter: clinton's repeated apologies did not heal the wounds. >> that is not what i intended at all. >> reporter: she could run into the same problem next week. kentucky is the third-largest coal mining state in the country. ♪ >> reporter: it's also her next chance to stop a sanders mini streak. >> hello, louisville! >> reporter: she barnstormed the state on tuesday and began airing ads here. >> and she's the one who will make a real difference for you.
7:13 am
tried to stay neutral in the primary, but vice president joe biden weighed in tuesday on clinton's behalf. >> i feel confident that hillary will be the nominee. i feel confident she'll be the next president. >> reporter: sanders insisted clinton is still beatable even though she only needs to win about 13% of the delegates in the remaining eight-state contest. >> and let me be as clear as i can be -- we are in this campaign to win the democratic nomination! [ applause ] >> reporter: it's easy to see why his supporters are still hoping against hope. sanders has now won nearly as many states as clinton has -- 19 states to her 23. it's just that her states have been bigger, and she won some of those big states by large margins, putting the delegates that he needs, charlie, virtually out of reach. >> thanks, nancy. cbs news political director and "face the nation" moderator, john dickerson, is in
7:14 am
good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> what is it that donald trump must do to get the speaker, paul ryan, on board? >> well, it's a two-way street, of course. i'm not sure -- the central challenge is that usually what happens in these unity moments is that both sides feel each other out, and they recognize that going forward they're going to have the same instincts. donald trump and paul ryan have totally different positions and instinks on issues like trade, immigration, entitlements, taxes, tone. i mean, those are the big issues. what worries paul ryan and some other republicans is that donald trump is unpredictable. he loves being unpredictable, and that makes them nervous. >> he won the primaries in their party. he won the primaries. he'll win the nomination. >> he sure did, no question about that. they have their own both political future to think about, the primaries aren't the entire electorate.
7:15 am
secondarily, they have ideas that they believe in, and they just are in a totally different place than donald trump. they may be able to have a unity moment. when what they -- what they worry about is what does it look like as they go forward k. they stay in sync? >> do they have common ground? >> they don't want to see hillary clinton be president. they want to see conservatives on the supreme court. but is that enough given how far apart they are on the issues, and also on tone? remember that paul ryan came out and spoke out several times against or about things that donald trump said, but muslims, about white supremacists. so this goes pretty deep. >> john, one of the most something stories today is what hillary clinton said yesterday, that she's willing to support medicare buy-in for those 50 and older s. -- and older. is that what bernie sanders supporte
7:16 am
the left? >> we'll have to see how the fight goes with trump. yes, that's part of what it's done at least for the primary process. >> john dickerson, thank you very much for joining us today. we have breaking news from baghdad where isis claims responsibility for a massive car bombing this morning. amateur video claims to show the aftermath of the attack in sadr city. officials say the bomb killed at least 45 people. me to developments in the controversy over whether facebook sensors news. allegation of liberal bias are drawing scrutiny. some say the network blocks stories about conservatives in its trending section. jan crawford is at the capitol where commerce committee secretary john thune calls the issue serious. >> reporter: john thune is raising questions, facebook has launched its investigation into whether it filtered out conservative topics. interestingly, this controversy trended for much of the day on facebook yesterday.
7:17 am
>> keep an open mind -- >> reporter: in this video posted last month, facebook urged viewers to seek out opposing points of view. >> maybe, just maybe it's a good time to search for them. to find the other side of the story. >> reporter: south dakota senator john thune is worried the conservative side is being suppressed on the social network. in a letter sent to facebook tuesday, the south dakota republican asked if the trendg topics were subjective and filtered to support or suppress particular political viewpoints. >> consumers have rights, and wea want to make sure that we're protecting consumers' rights and that businesses aren't in fact engaged in any deceptive practice. >> reporter: on monday, gizmodo's technology editor said that facebook employs human curators who work off a list of stories generated by an algorithm. they select the items that become facebook trending topics. >> we have evidence of them blacklisting in a lost c
7:18 am
conservative news -- >> what's a particular story they blacklisted? >> the c pap conference. as that was going on, it was not allowed to trend. >> reporter: in a statement, facebook said it will "keep reviewing our operational businesses around trending topics, and if we find they are inadequate, we will take immediate steps to change them." cbs news contributor nicholas thompson says the controversy could reinforce a perception problem facebook had among conservatives. its founder and chairman, mark zuckerberg, has recently taken positions supporting same-sex marriage, immigration reform, and black lives matter. >> if republicans leave facebook, that's terrible for facebook. they can't afford to alienate the party that controls congress. >> reporter: now, that perception problem, that is really the issue because there's nothing that congress can really do. i mean, media companies are protected by the first amendment. they're not obligated to tell congress why they pick the story that they choose. you know, facebook, it's denying the allegations. it c

8:04 am
ryan told the "wall street journal" why he said last week he is not ready to support trump. >> we didn't think that that would happen so fast. i thought cruz and kasich would stay in the race until at least california. i think everybody was caught off guard. i think donald himself was surprised that he wrapped it up this quickly. it was too soon to basically jump out there. is this me being candid and honest? i want to make sure we run a campaign that everybody can get behind, that people are proud of having. i have experience with the electoral college. i learned the hard lesson in 2012, how not to win the electoral college. we have to be a party that is -- that is broad and inclusive. >> ryan said the goal is to unify the party. "wall street journal" columnist peggy noonan is with us. she's a cbs news contributor. good morning. >> good morning, guys. >> i think it's important to read speaker ryan's comments yesterday very carefully. and i took a look at them again this morning. he said it avenues going to take more than a week just to repair and unify this party. do you think his comments
8:05 am
prophetic? >> oh, interesting question. i think all of us would like to be in on the meeting tomorrow with donald trump. >> gayle said she want to be a fly on the wall. >> this is a party trying to reconcile itself with the fact that it has an unusual nominee who they did not imagine even against all the signs the past few months would be the nominee. there's something even more unusual than that -- donald trump won just about 10.5 million votes along the way to winning the nomination. those voters were not only in deck endorsing trump, they were rebuking republican leadership in washington. it is now republican leadership in washington that has to come together with trump and his people and figure out a way to go forward when they disagree on so much. >> if you think paul ryan has to
8:06 am
move, not donald trump, in terms of policy? >> one thing i hear from washington is, paul ryan will go in and see what concessions he can get. if that is true, i'm not sure the way -- that's the way they ought to be holding their first meeting. maybe they ought to get to know each other. maybe they ought to see areas where there may be commerce, areas where there may be give. in those areas where they're just head to head in disagreement on, say, immigration, then come forward and speak of it seriously. don't be furtive. you know, don't be taking shots at each other. speak seriously and with depth. b the differences. >> peggy, this is what i'm curious about -- what are your republican homeys say about donald trump? a lot of you talk behind close the doors. what are you saying? >> some people are trying to wrap their heads around what is still for them a
8:07 am
it's a funny thing about people and politics. they ought to be the ultimate realist. yet, there were a lot of people in washington politics, washington republican politicses who thought, trump won't happen because that's not the kind of thing that happens. therefore, it won't happen. >> it has. >> so they managed to be surprised last week when he cleaned it up. there's lots of arguments going on, lots of accusations of bad faith. when people in politics come forward and say, i've thought about it, i'm going to support trump, they are immediately lambasted on social media as sellouts, as cynics. as bad people. there's not very much good faith out there right now among republicans. there's -- not a lot of granting of good faith -- >> he seems to have the support of the people that can't be ignored. >> 10.5 million people, plus, he brought a bunch into the republican party for the first time.
8:08 am
republican leaders in washington ought to be thinking, for ten years we have been doing white papers on how to bring people in. this guy just bought them in. normally you like the guy who makes the tent bigger. >> he says he's not going to go with data-driven campaigns that were successful for president obama. >> yeah. >> that he's going to rely on rallies. what is your take on that? >> my take is, wow, back to the future? this is surprising. we have broken into the digital age in which unforgettably in 2012 obama's people showed you get out the vote by knowing the voters, by being in contact with them, by social media. fine, new things happen. that was a change. trump is saying, no, i like the old way. i'm going to have big rallies. everybody likes my rallies. >> your take on bernie sanders who says he still has a chance? does he know something that the pollsters don't? >> i think he wants to win, and he feels continually a wave of support behind
8:09 am
it is not meaningless that mrs. clinton last time in the primary took west virginia and last night did not. i mean, there's still something behind sanders. it's hard to imagine mathematically how he becomes the nominee. you can tell he's going to stay in this game. >> peggy noonan, great to have you as always. >> thank you. >> good to see you. london's muslim mayor is slamming the republican presumptive nominee. he calls trump's views of islam ignorant. donald trump has suggested that the mayor would be exempted from his proposal to temporarily ban muslims from entering the united states. mark phillips is in london with how kahn is changing the debate. >> reporter: good morning. whatever or whoever donald trump had in mind when he announced the end toal -- the ban on allowing
8:10 am
has backtracked a little. sadiq, kahn not only won the race for mayor, he won by the largest margin any mayor has ever had. that in an election where his faith and history as a political activist and human rights lawyer forced him to battle claims that he was sympathetic to some extremist views. now that kahn is the merritt of one of the great western capitals, donald trump was inevitably asked if he would be banned like all the rest of the world's muslims. "there will always be exceptions," trump told "the new york times." sadiq kahn has told dwlaump to do with his -- donald trump what to do with his exceptions. >> i think donald trump has ignorant views about islam. it's not just about me. i don't want to be the exception to be allowed to go to america. >> reporter: this has become a tale two of cities. the paris mayor hopped the rain to congratulate the new mayor. what did she think of donald trump's ban all m
8:11 am
not much. >> my god, my god. >> reporter: not just stupid, >> you can be a muslim, and you can be european. >> yes. >> you can be a parisian mayor and london mayor and work closely together. inhope donald trump looks to the lessons that london set last thursday and realize it's possible to be western and muslim and to be friends with mayors of paris, as well. >> reporter: sadiq kahn says the trump position plays into the hands of the extremists by playing into their narrative that the west is an unwelcoming place and is the enemy. and by the way, he's broken with tradition from foreign politicians. he says if there is a contest between donald trump and hillary clinton, he not only backs hillary clinton, he hopes she trounces him. norah? >> mark fill nips london. thank you very much. the company that changed how we shop is taking aim at youtube. ahead, amazon's
