he's the muhammad ali of global democracy. he has to believe, i am the greatest. but he was certainly a man who took care of himself. he understood the principles of feudalism. and he gets out of prison, after 27 years, his lean frame was a tribute to his discipline. and that physical discipline was a reflect of his mental and spiritual discipline, as well. >> and kept up the lifelong love of boxing. just four days out of robben island, the first thing he mike tyson. want to go back it byron pitts in the stadium now. we're hearing that song, as more and more world leaders pour in, talk a little about what's going to happen over the next days when this service is done. mandela will be moved to pretoria to lie in state for several days before the funeral. >> reporter: you're breaking up a bit. today, he will lie in state in the capital of pretoria. the funeral service will be held in the village of his boyhood on the eastern cape. while he was a prisoner at robben island, every day he would wake at 4:00 in the morning. he would do fingertip pushups, 200 situps, run

an escoffiere, a muhammad ali, a dalai lama, a joey narone, somebody who changes everything about their changes the whole landscape. life after them is never the same. martin picard is such a man. a heretofore unencountered hybrid of rut outdoorsman, veteran chef with many years of fine dining experience, renegade, innovator, he is one of the most influential chefs in north america. he is also a proud quebecois, and perhaps he more than anyone else has defined for a new generation of americans and canadians what that means. he's an unlikely ambassador for his country and province. but maybe not so unlikely. i mean, look at him. out for a day trapping beaver with local trapper, carl. >> no? >> so the bait is wood? >> yeah, just the bark. >> they eat the bark? >> yeah, yeah, yeah. >> i understand in pioneer days, beaver was the financial engine of canada? empires were built on it. every hat practically in the world was made of a beaver pelt. >> that's why today it's the icon of canada. >> to a lesser extent, the tradition continues today. carl continues to trap, usually called on by provi

and i put that in the same category of meeting others like muhammad ali and others because of being inamily of martin luther king. >> what were some of the characteristics you saw that were common to your uncle, dr. martin luther king, and nelson mandela. >> i would say that my uncle was always a peaceful warrior. he held on that that his whole life, of course. nelson mandela only awired some of those qualities later in life. i believe they both went through the stier. i believe they were forged to be leaders and to resist oppression. and martin luther king jr. fought for that here in america and nelson mandela fought so hard in south america. those movements did finally meet and i think that was their commonality. >> i think they were both noble peace prize winners and they overcame racism, and when he came out of friday, you mention thad he came out a very different man. he was stilled with humility, grace, and gentleness that he took with him when he went to office. he ended up working with the very people that villainized him for all of his life. how does a person come to the place

>> guest: they were primarily theological for the same reasons that on tape that muhammad ali and the second to last circle of hell was the theological kind of idea. but again with all of these prejudice is, they take different forms in different periods of time. so they are like an underground stream that erupt at times with the conditions of the particular historical. and so, clearly today part of it might be theological but part of it is also the fact that what is carried over is the statistic that muslim men are bad and angry and violent and muslim women are repressed by their husbands. of those things have really carried on for quite awhile in the united states and they may have originated in the purely theological context but the increasingly change. so when the women's rights movement occurs we can see the difference between the ways in which muslim women had previously been an object of fascination by many american audiences like i dream of jeannie moos kind of the tail end of that where you have the clad woman at the behest of her master. but i dream of jeannie really kind of

mandela was fascinated at that time by mike tyson and american boxers, muhammad ali. a lot about boxing. he was a poet. he was a great world leader and inspiration to so many, but not a guy who was self-possessed. unlike at love politicians. interested in the world, other people. wanted to know about american politics. fascinated by the american civil rights movement. martha: i think that is such an important point that you make about him and he was, he was sort of regal. he had a very regal bearing and yet he was humble which is such a great combination. >> awesome. i was remembering that when he came to the 50th anniversary of the united nations opening in new york, all the world leaders were around obviously and yet somehow mandela stood out as a leader among leaders because they all flocked to him. they all wanted photos with him shaking hands. i got to go over, i was like, it was unbelievable that the world leaders were almost like, tell us your secret. how did you do this? martha: yeah. and think one of the secrets was that he put everything before himself and t

>> first of all, that was barack obama as muhammad ali doing the rope-a-dope. he was tired, he was laying on the ropes. his main goal, i think today was to get through that press conference and get on that airplane and not cause problems. he did that, but there is good news in what he said. i think we have been really focused on some of the downsides. listen. the economy is growing. they had to revise the numbers up 4%. he pointed that out. unemployment, good. fuel prices, low. we're focusing on the bad stuff. in the background, good stuff is accumulating. i think the president pointed to that, took some blows and got out of there. >> he did say, the president, when the debt ceiling has to go up again in february, he's not negotiating with the republicans on this. this is a debt, newt gingrich, that the united states has already accumulated and there's no negotiations on this, even though paul ryan and others say, you know what, let's nmake a deal. >> i thought overall, it was sort of an eisenhower quality press conference in which he manages to obfuscate and u
