[inaudible conversations] >> good afternoon. i apologize for though they start today. [laughter] i am humbled by that's especially. it is of powerful morning and i hope some of you can get outside to enjoy the beautiful day but other then that i don't have any other items. >> what about the meetings or what it talks about? >> unfortunately not tour disappoint you there was not a stenographer in their. it was a one-on-one meeting between the pope and the president. that limits liability to give you the detailed readout because it says a private conversation but it did last 40 minutes and all of you or representatives have an opportunity to observe the beginning of that discussion you saw the two men walking through and the president's stop them on a couple of occasions to describe their surroundings. and

john kerry, and he was going like this. >> going to john kasich at independence hall, we can hear you. >> you were asking me earlier aboutthe size of the crowd. and i want to pan over so you can see, it's starting to swell here, but the people behind us, gathering to wait to hear what the pope will say, there are a noticeable amount of families, and he has spoken about that issue on several of his stops in the united states, but it's here in this place that he has talked about in depth. tolerance and religious freedom, and also using personal stories to talk about. he has talked about that to congress, being a descentent of immigrants, and a lot of the people are waiting, now that the pope has gone by, to wait and see what he will say. >> i hate to ask you again. there he is. we're going to turn around and look at this crowd. but what's interesting about this is, from the front, it looks like there were not that many people, and then you look behind, and there's this enormous crowd, this is not close to this location. but at this location, where the pope will speak tonight, flurry thousands of people gathered in front of

john f. kennedy went on in 1960 and who could forget bill clinton playing the sax on hall. there is the risk of an awkward moment or coming off dull. many thought john kerry bombed in 2004. >> are you or have you ever flip-flopped? [ laughter ] >> i've flip-flopped flap pliped. >> reporter: tonight viewers will watch stephen colbert's debut to see if jeb is a big hit or another political miss. now jeb bush, these comedians are not journalist but sometimes perform acts of journalism and reveal information about the candidates so interesting to see what we hear on colbert's show tonight. we has vice president joe biden later in the week and there is speculation what biden might say and next week colbert has bernie sanders. there are two candidates colbert could not get, hillary clinton and donald trump, they will go on jimmy fallon's tonight show instead. it's a new era of late night tv booking wars and candidates are perhaps the hottest commoditiec. >> no question. >> brian stelter in new york. joining me now is katrina pierson and mike shields, former chief of staff for the rnc that worked in the bush administration. mike, i'd like to start with you. this

. >> secretary of state john kerry enters the building, headed towards the unga hall. we are going to be looking very closely at what president obama says and what putin says, particularly about syria. >> it's an incredibly tense time around the world, especially in the middle east and north africa right now. certainly, with ukraine, all these issues, jim chute tsciutt they're coming to a head. what the leaders do in the bilateral meetings on the sidelines, if they will, could be critically important. >> no question. you look at russia and ukraine. this is an issue where the american president has not really figured out a solution. they haven't found their common ground to move forward and, certainly on syria, as well. syria is an issue which is accelerating into danger very rapidly. certainly on the issue of refugees coming into europe, but russia's increased involvement. this is a development that the u.s., frankly, is not comfortable with. there's also an open question as to what the u.s. can do about it. russian military personnel and equipment on the ground, but a

hall. there is the risk of an walk ward moment or coming off dull. many critics thought john kerryombed on "the daily show" in 2004. >> are you or have you ever flip-flopped? >> now as the 2016 race heats up viewers will be watching to see if the candidates are big hits on late night or political misses. >>> what's already clear about colbert's "late show" is that he wants to distinguish himself by having serious guests and conversations like his emotional interview with vice president joe biden the other day. let's talk about that with dick cavett. his book is out in paperback next month. mr. cavett, thank you for being here this month. >> i was in the neighborhood. >> i asked you more than a year ago on the show if you thought the decision to have colbert host the show was a gamble. here is what you said back then. >> if they are, it's probably the best gamble anybody ever took. i can't think of anybody more qualified or if there ever has been anyone more qualified -- >> wow! >> -- to do this show. >> now you have seen the first week. do you still agree? is it true? >> absolutely

hall and that helped him get focused. for others it might be taking a nap, it could be playing tennis. i know john kerry went and had a manicure and pedicure before his event when he ran. >> carly fiorina likes to play solitaire. she talked about that. we will see who is the most centered when they step to the stage. who do you think has the most to lose tonight, brett? >> i think several candidates have campaigns going in reverse who have a lot to loose. scott walker, chris christie, they need moments. but it is interesting to see how trump handles ben carson. t he attacked him and dit didn't o over well. carson is not aggressive. he is passive and laid back and i am not sure he presents an opening for trump to go after him. it will be interesting to see how that exchange goes. in the under car debate, i think lindsey graham has a lot to gain from foreign policy experience. i look for him to shine in that debate as well. >> and we might expect that, brett. let me ask you about how you win a debate. you know? as we got past the first debate, many suggested that mark rubio was the winning. but mark rubio

john kerry opens the door to more. and, america after charleston: a return to the city where nine people were killed three months ago. a pbs town hall on healing, forgiveness and race. all that and more on tonight's pbs newshour. >> major funding for the pbs newshour has been provided by: ♪ ♪ moving our economy for 160 years. bnsf, the engine that connects us. >> and the william and flora hewlett foundation, helping people build immeasurably better lives. >> and with the ongoing support of these institutions and individuals. >> this program was made possible by the corporation for public broadcasting. and by contributions to your pbs station from viewers like you. thank you. >> ifill: a river of humanity continued flowing into europe today, but it appeared to be somewhat better regulated. thousands of people were being taken in buses directly from croatia, across hungary and on to austria. jonathan miller of independent television news reports from the croatian/hungarian border. >> the hungarian military is busy building its reservoir just like the one on the serbian frontier. they want to ensure the transient in hungary is tightly

hall. ♪ there's always the risk of an awkward moment or just coming off dull. many thought john kerry004. >> are you or have you ever flip flopped? >> i've flip flopped, flap flipped. >> now with trump, clinton, bush, viewers will be watching to see if there are big hits or political misses. cnn, new york the ceo of apple is scheduled to make big announcement on wednesday. likely to unveil the latest in the iphone line of products. >> it could make a major splash in another was way. samuel burke reports. >> iphones are the stars of these big apple events. this time it looks like an updated version of the apple tv console might steal the spotlight. that's because no one is expecting an iphone 7 until next year. likely just an iphone 6s and 6s plus with an improved processor and better camera. the biggest change is a screen with force touch. if you press a little harder on the screen it will reveal extra menu settings and a new ipad. sales keep going down for apple's tablets. they are hoping a bigger screen, possibly 13 inches, 33 centimeters will help to turn things around. all eyes wi

john kerry just spoke at the united nations. we will play you some of his remarks. >>> round two in the granite state. donald trump and jeb bush have dueling town halls in new hampshire. we start with what was likely the best kept secret of pope francis's u.s. trip. a secret meeting with the kentucky clerk jailed for refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses. attorneys for davis released this photo of two rosaries they say the pope gave to davis when the two of them met last thursday. with every move crowds of people and hundreds of cameras followed the pope on his trip in the united states but no one until now know this meeting with kim davis had happened. davis just opened up about what her conversation with the pope meant to her. >> i put my hand out and he grabbed it and i hugged him and he hugged me. and he said thank you for your courage. he told me before he left stay strong. that was a great encouragement. knowing the pope is on track with what we are doing and agreeing kind of validates everything. >> last week reporters asked the pope about davis. he didn't mention her by name but did say i can say that objection is a right that is a par

john kerry discussed iran with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu. >> republican presidential candidate marco rubio campaigning in new hampshire holding two town halltings. he vowed to void any nuclear deal with iran if elected president. in the latest marist poll, rubio has only 3% support in the state. >> the 2015 college basketball champions, the duke blue devils meeting with president obama at the white house. they presented the president with a jersey and signed ball. and a fantasy camp scholarship that he can redeem after he leaves the white house. that's your cnbc news update. back to you guys. >> let me remind everybody, they won that in april. what took so long? some of those kids graduated. >> they probably have. the white house is a busy place. it's got a lot on the agenda. >> thanks, sue. >> thanks very much. >>> 30 minutes to go. dow is up 360. we are continuing to edge higher here. s&p is now up 2.3%. nasdaq up 2.5%. >> a top trader will tell us what he's watching as we roll through what will be a very critical final half hour of today's trading session. >> we'll speak with the veteran china watcher who calls the country's stock marke

kerry. how interesting secretary of state john kerry, mika and joe biden sitting fairly close to each other. two that have been the subject of intense political speculation over the past several weeks. at least in the hallswhen the pope should be leaving the papal nunciature and heading to the white house. right on cue, he is headed to the white house, getting into the small car that he has been using since arriving here in the united states. the crowd is going wild. this is what i love about the catholic church and catholics. they get excited about their pope, and they don't hold back. it's almost like a sports event. let's take a listen. >> and that is a change. [ chanting ] >>> so, few, mika, few of us could have guessed when pope francis ascended and -- to the leadership of this church that this man could have excited the church the way he has. it was a church obviously that had been mired in scandal, that had been -- mired in a series of problems. it seemed more disconnected than ever before from its followers. and now we see scenes of this pope that we would see anywhere across the planet, beloved by young and old alike. >> he has found a way very quickly and quite frankly at a time that the cathol
