anna werner is there. anna. >> reporter: scott, i'm standing in what's left of the nature sunshine health food store. the roof's been taken off. the store is destroyed. in fact, the only way that you'd know that this used to be a health food store is by a few books and other items the tornado left behind. the tornado skipped down main street, tearing at the businesses and theaters in the heart of this country music resort town. >> the whole house shook, and i was, like whoa! >> reporter: as sirens sounded, glenn lefebvre gathered his wife and three into their bath tub. are you thinking about your family? the tornado passed. then he heard the screams of his neighbors, trapped in this house, and ran to help. >> i had to get in. i had to. i had to get in. >> reporter: why? >> because of the way they were screaming, "help us, help us." i had to get in there. >> reporter: he got as close as he could and then kept them calm until the rescuers arrived. what was that like for you when they finally came out and you

an anna werner on high-level resignations at the komen for the cure breast cancer charity. and "on the road" with steve hartman. the shots seen round the world. captioning sponsored by cbs this is the "cbs evening news" with scott pelley. >> pelley: good evening, it was an extraordinary moment at the white house today. the president made his first public comments about trayvon martin, the unarmed florida teenager who was shot to death by a neighborhood watch volunteer. president obama spoke not only as the president but as an african american parent. he said "when i think about this boy, i think about my own kids." >> i think all of just to do some soul searching to figure out how does something like this happ happen. and that means that we examine the laws and the context for what happened as well as the specifics of the incident. but my main message is to the parents of trayvon martin. if i had a son, he'd look like trayvon. >> pelley: it was a sunday night a month ago in sanford, florida. ray von martin, a high school student never in trouble with the law, was on on an e

when you hear a northerner or a werner, somebody who is not a southerner trying to speak southern, i was under the assumption this was somewhat off-putting rather than feeling like an embrace from somebody who wants to get to know you and in addition to this, we have the controversy over the catfish. i don't know if you're aware of this. in january at south carolina at a barbecue place he said he was not a fish man. and then in mobile he said i had catfish for the second time. it was delicious just like the first time. does anyone feel patronized. >> some southerners may say kiss my grits but he does it with enough self self deprecation. i think back to the 1988 campaign you never seen awkward appeals to the south like michael dukakis. he made some really pitiful efforts. in the end people know he's not from the south. i don't think he has to keep reminding him. that's the problem with what he's doing. >> essentially a three-way too-close to call race in mississippi and alabama tomorrow. what do you make of it? >> this is like student council election math. you get two popular jocks

anna werner is there this morning.w with the attorney who's advising the admitted shooter neighborhood wochman george zimmerman. i asked him about zimmerman's claim of self-defense. >> what i will tell you is i believe there is sufficient evidence to show that mr. zimmerman was acting in self-defense. he has wounds -- injuries to his face, to the back of his head. >> anna, my question is, how do you believe this defense is going to play in sanford, florida? >> reporter: well i'm sure it depends, as you know on the individual rebecca, but i think it's helpful to look at the context here. the city manager was quoted as saying the other day that racial tensions between the black community and the sanford police department here go back ten years. also the head of the seminole county naacp said there was very little trust or confidence from the black community when you talk about the police department. there have been other incidents, too, that people have questioned in the police department's handling of other cases that i

trying to recruit american muslims, trying to get werners on his side and make the west look terrible--he welcomes stuff like this. he loves to call the u.s. out. >> and it drives me crazy that we would give him any kernel to work with. because we're supposed to be the city on the hill. we're supposed to have a moral high ground. when we do things like honestly detainerships, no, no, a couple of friends of the president got together and we decided he should be assassinated. but we're not going to call it an assassination which is something else that eric holder said in his speech. one more thing. omar hammami, they did indict him. they did go through the judicial process. do you think he belongs on the hit list? >> you know, it's a very difficult question for me to answer. i spent a year of my life basically chasing this guy. i know his family. i know his friends quite well. but ultimately you know, omar has put this stuff out there and you know, yeah. >> no, look, i think i agree with that, based on the evidence that we have. you know, i want the audience to understand something. oh

werner spitz is one of the country's best known forensic pathologists.om medical school in 1995 he did six more years of training in anatomic, clinical, and forensic pathology. >> it's not a field that attracts huge numbers of people. it's not billed as being glamorous like you see on various television shows but it has its own reasons for my interest. >> on this sunday afternoon in macomb county dr. spitz is about to solve a medical mystery, the case of 44-year-old jill moore, who had severe jaw pain after a dental cleaning and then died suddenly in the e.r. four days later. in autopsies, dr. spitz always follows the same routine. first an external exam, then internal. the external exam of mrs. moore revealed nothing. >> we're still trying to figure out exactly what happened. >> finally, as he dissects the heart, dr. spitz finds the elusive answer. >> it wasn't long before i identified a severe coronary artery narrowing that involved one of her main coronary arteries that precipitated a sudden cardiac arythmia and sudden death. >> there is a very profou

there were, you know, werner von braun was already there. a lot of people to have a lot of engineers and scientists had descended on alabama. and the city wanted to disassociate themselves from the rabid race imagery of the rest of the state, and that helped them. you know, they negotiated this quietly. so, yes. from the beginning i have memories. my parents were civil rights activists. after the of voting civil-rights act passed some of voting at, then it turned to politics. i grew out looking in tpa stance, part of the national democratic party. i had memories. my father ran for governor against george wallace in 1970. i just have these memories of my summers being taken all around the state, particularly the black part of state. those counties that were the center of the plantation economy during antebellum era, not surprising a hundred years later all the black votes were. and it fell like particularly during that election, 1970, it felt like i had been carried to every black church in the black belt. i watched my father give this speech

as brooks and werner wrote -- quote -- "markets, precisely because they are wealth generating, also end up being wealth distributing." by every universal measure, life has improved dramatically in free market societies. literacy, basic living standards and life expectancy have increased while disease and starvation have plummeted. child labor has been eradicated. as free enterprise has spread during the last two centuries, the world's average per-capita income has skyrocketed by about 10 times. these are major moral achievements. yes, some people are richer than others and that is true in all nations, whether characterized as market economies or not. but where it exists, free enterprise has helped make the poor make tremendous gains and they continue to climb. in the modern era of globalization, we've seen this on an unprecedented scale. since 1970, as economic freedom has grown in developing countries like china and india, the number of people living on a dollar a day has plunged 80%, according to a recent study. what about president obama's arguments that free enterprise has harmed mi
