the diversification has to be closely related to agriculture. and here in iowa, it means the research dollars that come to iowa state and the university of iowa and other colleges have got to be focused on businesses and on enterprises that revolve around the dominant economy arot economy that's always been here and always will be here. and that's the ability to grow things and to sell those things in america and across the world. >> as someone who was a small businessman, i think i understand what's required. 80% of the new jobs in this nation are going to be created by small businesses. and we can do a number of things. when the udeg program came in, while it was called urban development action grant. i saw it could help my house district in deep southern illinois. i got some business leaders from my area together and the first year of that program, one out of 12 dollars we created jobs. jobs that are still there, jobs that expanded. we can do it. next, we need credit for exports. small company in a small town has a very tough time getting credit to expand exports that create new american jobs. if we had federal guarantees on those loans, you w

the "tonight show with jimmy fallon." trump's appearance comes as a new poll out of iowa shows he's the top candidate in the state for the gop. according to the quinnipiac university poll, trump has the support of 27% of the iowa gop caucus participants. rounding out the top four candidates, ben carson, ted cruz and jeb bush. wisconsin governor scott walker fell from the top spot back in july to number ten. >> on the democratic side, joe biden has yet to officially enter race for the white house and thanks to late night television, we got a glimpse into what's holding him back. the vice president says he's not emotionally ready to run for president. during a taping for the late show last night, biden very candidly told stephen colbert that anybody running for president should commit themselves fully to the cause and because he's still mourning his son beau who died earlier this year, biden said he wasn't sure he could make that commitment. >> i don't think any man or woman should run for president unless they can look at the folks out there and say i promise you, you have my whole heart, my whole soul, my energy. i would be lying if i said that i knew i was there.

the crucial first caucus state of iowa. according to the latest poll from monmouth university, carson has now jumped into a first-place tie withonald trump, both at 23%. what's more remarkable is that carson has jumped 15 points since that same poll was conducted back in july. while the former iowa favorite, scott walker, has fallen 22 points. he's down all the way to just 7% now. there's no doubt that ben carson's rise is driven by the anti-establishment zeal that's overtaken the electorate. a whopping 73% of republicans in this country prefer a washington outsider as president than someone with d.c. experience. democrats feel the exact opposite. 77% of them say they want someone with washington experience, while just 18% would like an outsider. it's a pretty stark contrast in opinion. let's get to the panel on this. richard, let me start with you. donald trump, it's the summer of trump. i totally get the trump surge in the polls. he's all we talk about, he makes a lot of noise, he says provocative things. i really am at a loss to understand what is fueling this rise by ben carson in the last few weeks. because for all i can

the monmouth university poll. carly fiorina is third at 10%. rick perry's campaign is fading fast in the state that votes first in the primaries. he has only one paid staff member in iowae latest batch of hillary clinton's e-mails show that she and her staffers were wary of security issues. 7000 more pages of e-mails were released, many were concerned about protecting information. ms. clinton's e-mails from her time at secretary of state are being reviewed because she is the private server instead of a government system. that is a look at the top stories of this hour. securities and exchange commission is being dragged into the 2016 presidential race. it has led to do with how it regulates wall street. more than 40 democratic senators signed a letter to the sec senator mary jo white urging her to require that public companies spending on political campaigns. a bloomberg national political correspondent has that story from washington. on the other side, republicans are pretty opposed to this idea. should companies be worried that they might have to disclose this? to one comes down person, mary jo white. she is the decider on his boat if it ever comes to that in the fec.

university poll coming out, and where does the race stand in new hampshire? >> hi, briana, well thing the race in new hampshire is where it is nationally, and in states like iowa. as you mentioned, donald trump is in the lead, and now ben carson is in a solid second plac place, and we have seen it in recent national polls and monmouth poll in new hampshire and now, we have seen ben carson jump up to 17% support, and that is very different from july poll, and now the third place finisher now is ohio governor john kasich who is the only other candidate at double-digits, but he is not an outside er, and trump and carson have been riding the wave of the interest of votership as o outside outsiders, and kasich has held political office. >> and so, now, athena, when it comes to the pack of favorable candidates how does jeb bush fare. >> well, the gop voters seem to like the retired brain surgeon ben carson in this poll standing at 73%, and behind him is carly fiorina who is pretty far behind there and also then you can see trump is tied with governor kasich, and that is 54%. >> and you are there, athena, and give us a look at the debate? >> well, this is remarkable,

a monmouth university poll shows rival ben carson tying trump in the state of iowa. this is the first time in a month there is a poll that does not give donald trump a >> also overnight a batch of hillary clinton's e-mails released whachlt's in them? classified information. does it matter to voters? >> hey there, good morning. new polls out from monmouth university, good news for ben carson. carson is at 23%, tied with donald trump. the trend line is they are very much up from july. in july, carson 8% and trump 13%. fiorina is bunched in there as 10%. cruz at 9%. the establishment figures not doing as well as they were in july. another poll, this is from the des moines register in bloomberg shows a similar trend. trump there, a 23%, carson 18%, walker who was supposed to do really well in iowa, 8%. cruz at 8%. bush 6%. if you look back, they have a trend line back to january. what it really shows is these anti sort of establishment figures doing well since january. we think we know why. the monmouth university poll showing the gop likely caucus goers, only 23% want s

university, students, whether black or white or latino, embracing him everywhere. that's what i saw in iowa. that's what i saw in south carolina. union members, mostly african american, at the state aflcio, wildly enthusiastic about bernie when i spoke there. so i think we'll see african american leadershipship across the south and across the country in this campaign. >> let me correct any inference. i did not mean to infer that bernie sanders isn't just as capable of attracting people of color and also diverse voters because of his progressive views and the correct ideas he has about the country. i am saying that the universe of voters expands and expands into larger states, and hillary clinton, i still believe will be the nominee. she got 18 million votes against one of the greatest candidates ever in barack obama. so i do not mean to infer that bernie sanders cannot appeal to a wider variety of voters. >>> still ahead, the details on the latest republican pundit to fall off the trump bandwagon. plus, marco rubio's latest desperate push for air time. now he's using footballs to gain votes.
