thank you. the senate intelligence committee is preparing for a highly anticipated hearing with former fbi director james comey. comey is expected to testify thursday about his conversations with president trump. intelligence committee members mark warner and susan collins spoke about the questions they want answered. >> i want to know what kind of pressure, appropriate, inappropriates, how many conversations he with the president, did some of these conversations take place even before the president was sworn in. >> this will give us a chance to get his perspective on the issue of russian involvement and on the issue of collaboration or collusion. what is he seeing, what initial judgments has he made? >> democratic senator joe manchin of west virginia is also on the intelligence committee. good morning. >> good morning. >> what's the big question you have for the fbi director? >> the question asked by west virginians if
8:06 am
thought there was obstruction of justice, why didn't you act on it? >> what should the fbi director have done? >> we're anxious to hear this. he was suspicious after he came back from that meeting and took the notes. what was his concerns. if there was deeper concerns why wasn't something done at that time. >> you were talking about what happened on valentine's day. inside the oval office, the attorney general, the vice president of the united states and the fbi director. the president of the united states asked the attorney general and the vice president to leave and then reportedly says to the fbi director, i hope you can let this go, meaning the whole russia investigation. does that raise questions? >> it does raise questions. we want to know what comey was thinking, if he thought it had risen to the level of obstruction. if so, why didn't he act on it? if not, was that concerned filed away for what purpose? >> is director comey going to be, either by himself or others,
8:07 am
can say? >> he will not go above an open source, basically what's being reported in the public. he's not going, as i understand it, into a classified intel. we'll do sometimes an open meeting, such as what you'll see thursday. then we go into another classified setting which is pretty secure. >> is the president trying to get executive privilege for him, and if he is, will it be successful? >> i don't think so. we have not heard that whatsoever. it hasn't been brought to the committee as far as i know. i know it's been reported that that might be done. >> if he tried that, what would be your reaction? >> i think it would be wrong. >> i want to go back to the memos you say your constituents raised. we know he took copious notes. have you or anyone on the committee seen the memos and how important are they to this hearing on thursday? >> i haven't seen them. >> do you want to? >> yes. our intelligence committee is made up of 17 of, i think, truly americans.

8:09 am
foolishness, something along those lines. you all are making all this up, it didn't happen the way you're saying. do you think we'll ever get to the bottom of this? >> the intel is very pointed and direct that they have gotten more involved, they became more involved and did everything to become more involved than ever before. we've been going back in this charade for the last 40, 50 years. >> why do you think the president refuses to acknowledge that? >> i cannot answer. that could be the $64,000 question. we have to find out. i want to make sure this gets behind this. i said this, whether it be to michael flynn, help us prove your innocence. don't make us pull out you're guilty. >> the president has an agenda that has to do with health care, immigration, it has to do with tax reform, infrastructure, all of that. is he going to get any of that passed before the 2018 election? >> i would sure hope so. this c

it counts on all of us. the democrats and republicans have become so side lowed, if you have a d by your name or an r by your name -- we all take the same oath. how can we have a tax reform that really works, gets rid of $20 trillion of debt, starts paying that debt down and secures the country. >> what did you tell the president about health care in west virginia? >> i said, mr. president, there's 180,000-some that received health care for the first time. they voted overwhelmingly for you. they don't know how they got it. they know who took it away from them. be very careful where you're going. don't use the word repeal. >> what was his response to that? >> he listened. we're hoping he'll work on that and act with us. you can't repeal where we're agreeing, 50%, pre-existing

conditions, we believe in so many things. why would you throw that out and start over. we can't get 60 votes. >> it looks like a conflict. do you believe, yes or no, that conflict can be solved before the 2018 election? >> i believe it has to be solved. if it doesn't, god help america. we can't continue down this road and you can't go back to what we had which is nothing. >> senator manchin, thank you. we'll bring you full coverage of comey's testimony thursday at 10:00 eastern, 9:00 central on cbs. >> will you be available on friday to talk to us? think that over. one of the architects of obamacare has a new prescription for the

congress to repeal obamacare by this summer. dr. ezekiel emanuel was one of the architects of president obama's affordable care act. first on "cbs this morning," dr. emanuel shares his solutions for higher quality and lower cost care in his latest book called "prescription for the future." he writes, although the next few years may be rocky, the american health care system will ultimately become better performing and more affordable in the long run. a lot of people sure hope so. doctor is chair of medical ethics at the university of pennsylvania. i hope you heard senator manchin say millions of people have health care that didn't before. they don't want to lose it. would you agree it needs to be fixed? you're one of the architects? >> absolutely. we've had unintended consequences from the affordable care act. we had pbl
8:18 am
we couldn't solve before it gotten acted. it's been around for seven years. any corporation that would do a massive change like this would macon stand adjustments, because of the paralysis in congress, we haven't been able to make the adjustments. we know there are repairs needed. >> what do we do about it? >> on the exchanges there are three very simple things. enforce the mandate, guarantee the subsidies to the insurance companies for cost sharing, the deductibles and co-pays for family making less than 50,000 and make sure the insurance companies have risk orders so if they get too many sick patients, they're protected against that. two of those things were the aca, but the republicans undid them. we have to do those basic things. everyone knows it's those basic things -- >> before all of that, one of the thangs that drove opposition to the affordable care act was ss
8:19 am
that perhaps the obama administration did not accurately predict or prevent. >> so, first of all, we need to be accurate. the health care inflation rate has actually stabilized under the affordable care act. in certain markets like some of the exchanges you have seen very steep rises in premiums. there are things to do. there are many, many cost control measures. one of the things i would say is the republican bill has zero cost control measures in it. they're not going to address affordability. i agree with you affordability is one of the things people care about, and quality. they want to make sure they get good quality. my book is about how can we improve the quality of the system and lower the cost. >> can you do that without mandates? that's what drove the opposition to obamacare. >> answer, simply, charlie is kn no. you can't have the sick people in the system and healthy people waiting to get sick before they
8:20 am
that's just the simple fact. we're going to have to accept that fact. you can either have mandates or auto enrollment, you just get basic coverage. >> you had two things in your book on how you choose the best doctor for yourself. two questions you should ask. >> the first one is, do they do open access scheduling which means they start the day with half of their appointment slots empty for people who walk in or happen to get sick or they need that checkup done. open access scheduling is very important. it's so the doctor doesn't say, i'll see you in six weeks or i'll double book you and everyone is waiting and being annoyed. the second one is, are they on some performance measurement plan, do they have something like patient-centered medical home so they're measuring their performance and trying to improve it. that is key because we want doctors who are going to do better and know how well they're doing. so open access and are they on performance measurement plan like a patient-centered

8:32 am
making progress. maybe it's this show, creating awareness. >> maybe so. i was focusing in terms of what their concerns are? >> the same as all of our concerns. high cost of living and the cost of health care. that's on the front page and they're very concerned about that. it depends what category you're here. it's very hard, especially if you're on social security, to know that the cost of living adjustment is going to be below that of what health care costs are. and depending upon how much you are saving, you're starting to know that you're living longer. when did living longer become a bad thing? it's a good thing. but it means that people haven't saved enough for those extra ten to 12 years for retirement. that's what we're trying to do, create awareness that it's not timing the markets. it's time in the market. you can't start early enough to get the returns that you're going to need to be able

retire in dignity. >> we're showing this graphic now. what group of individuals are not saving money? >> norah, it would be obvious, the millennials because they know they have a lot more time. but where rates are today, it's going to take a lot more time to accumulate that money so they can start early. i think they need to focus on their parents as well because they need to save for retirement and sometimes when i tell this to millennials, they don't listen to me until i tell them that their parents are going to move back in with them. >> wait, but i'm already living with my parents. >> let me figure this out. how much should we be saving? do you have different amounts of saving for different age groups? >> i think what you first need to do is try to understand how much you're going to need. so in the past, $50,000 a year is what someone needed to retire. at 6 a

8:44 am
>> it's going to be really high. that's an understatement. >> higher than you've ever been. >> they spent more than a month on everest so they could learn to endure some of the highest altitudes on the planet. their goal was to summit it together without the use of oxygen. cory was forced to turn back, he did not give up. used supplemental oxygen. both at the table: charlie said they're going to make it. you did make it. what was it like for you, adrian, because cory turned back? you think we're not going to make it together and he comes, he reappears. >> it was this incredible moment. i knew i would continue like cory did last year without me. but then to have cory come back around. i don't remember the radio calls, he was there, fist bumping and yelling and encouraging me. he had the oxygen so he had extra energy. it was the most powerful moment of the whole trip for me, gave >> that energy.
8:45 am
>> for me there was so many things different. i had a different diet this year and trained really differently. ultimately i had to let go of my ego a little bit. >> meaning? >> i'm a slower climber than cory is above 8,000 meters. last year i tried to keep up and tried to keep up until i exploded and turned around. this year, this is how i'm going to climb the mountain, be patient with my body. it was enough to get me on top. >> cory, you made the decision you couldn't make it without the oxygen. you turned around but then decided to keep going. what changed your mind? >> an innate feeling that this wasn't something i could give up that easily. the decision to turn around and not do it, it was based on ego. i've done this without oxygen, i'm not going to do it with oxygen, which is silly. this en the opportunity arose, and i turned around, to be fair, going om
8:46 am
is like going from clark kent to superman. it's unbelievable. >> literally doing circles around me. >> adrian, describe that final push. how many hours? >> our final summit push was 41 hours from when we left 26,000 feet, 25,500 feet and went to the summit and back down. we rested some during that time to hydrate, but no sleep. it's just too high to sleep. you probably wouldn't wake up. 41 hours. i remember the last three hours were probably from here to the side of the studio, that's how little the distance is, and it takes that much time. it's heartbreaking to move that slowly. and it took all this support for me to be able to keep taking these steps and push through. >> some reports that too many people are trying to climb mt. everest and it's too dangerous. >> it's absolutely dangerous. >> i think there's too many
8:47 am
people trying to climb it which leads to unnecessary deaths. it's people, companies taking on unqualified clients and making poor decisions and those clients don't have any reference for the kind of trouble they're getting into. >> some people died while you were making the climb. >> seven people killed while we were on the mountain. you do see bodies when you're climbing the mountain. >> you see bodies? >> because they're so difficult to carry back down from those extreme altitudes. >> stepping over bodies, that doesn't deter you? >> for me it adds to the seriousness of what we do and makes me think about is it worth it and how am i going to climb the mountain? that's why i turned around last year. i didn't want to be one of those bodies. >> never occurred to me that bodies are there in your wake and you actually see them. you both look thinner to me this time. that's not a criticism. but it's noticeable. are you? >> i think even if my diet and
