They highlight clintons support of families and her close ties to her mother. Nancy cordes is in washington reporting on whether joe biden will get into the race. Nancy, good morning. Reporter good morning. The Vice President has always left the door open for a run, but he hasnt made any overt steps towards a bid either. But clintons email troubles and some soft poll numbers have reignited questions about a backup. The latest round of speculation about a biden run was sparked by a column in the New York Times. Maureen dowd wrote that biden had been talking to friends, family and donors about jumping into the race, and that before he died, bidens son, beau, tried to make his father promise to run, arguing that the white house should not revert to the clintons and that the country would be better off with biden values. My friend, my father, my hero, the next Vice President of the united states, joe biden. Reporter beau biden passed away from brain cancer on may 30th. Father and son were very close. My sense is that hes getting closer to making a decision, and im hoping that decision will be that hell throw his hat into the ring. Reporter Dick Harpootoian is a close friend and former democratic chair of south carolina. Democrats are open to another candidate and are willing to listen. I dont think its too late. Reporter bidens past two bids for the presidency were rocky ones. The first one in 1988 he dropped out after news reports revealed he plajized part of a speech. Polls now show clinton is vulnerable on questions of trust and honesty, but she still leads biden in a hypothetical matchup, 5513, according to a recent poll. Biden would be arguably the most experienced candidate on either side. Two terms as Vice President , 36 years in the senate. In a statement this weekend, the Vice President s spokesperson would only say as the biden family continues to go through this difficult time, the Vice President is focused on his family and immersed in his work. Nancy, thanks. 14 republican president ial contenders will share a stage tonight in New Hampshire. Candidates and their supporters want to raise their profiles before the top ten gather for thursdays primetime debate. Tonights event will not include donald trump, but weve heard a lot from him and his opponents over the weekend. Major garrett is in washington tracking the republican race. Major, good morning. Reporter good morning. Donald trump has discovered one of the previously unknown Fringe Benefits of president ial front runner status. The freedom to call the sunday shows. That means no fancy suits, no brightly colored ties and no hairspray is required. Donald trump on the three Network Sunday shows. Im preparing, but i prepare by seeing whats going on. I dont have pollsters telling me every move, that i cant say this, i cant say that. Reporter is he ready for thursdays debate . The poll numbers are very good. People are tired of being ripped off by the world. Reporter the latest wall street journal nbc poll shows trump leading the gop field with Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker and former Florida Governor jeb bush within striking distance. Powerhouse gop donors david and charles koch did not invite trump to their summer fundraiser. Trump suggested his gop rivals who were invited might be puppets who had to beg for money, et cetera, from the Koch Brothers. While thursdays nationally televised debate is the first of the campaign, todays forum in New Hampshire could loom large for candidates like bush, who made a solid showing in the first primary. Bush has vowed to be ready to rumble with trump. Ill have my big boy pants on. I wont have my little shorts with the nickers on. Reporter marco rubio, currently polling in the midsingle digits is among a group of republicans that may not make it into thursdays primetime debate unless they find a way to tap into the excitement trump has generated. Clearly he has hit on a theme that people are frustrated by, particularly illegal immigration. Reporter trump yesterday fired a Campaign Worker for posting racially charged remarks on facebook about reverend al sharptons daughter. He also continues to flirt with a thirdparty run if he doesnt win the gop nomination. That could become a flash point at thursdays debate. Well be watching, thank you.

This morning a small kansas town and its Baseball Team are mourning the death of a young bat boy. 9yearold Kaiser Carlile died on sunday, one day after he was accidentally struck in the head by a bat. He was wearing a helmet at the time. Don dahler shows us how the job kaiser loved doing turned into a tragedy. Reporter good morning. Kaiser carlile was about to start the fourth grade in the small town of liberal, kansas. But it was the game of baseball he couldnt get enough of and thats what makes this tragic story even more heart breaking. 9yearold Kaiser Carlile loved baseball. It was his first season as a bat boy for the liberal bee jays, a collegiate Summer League team in kansas. On saturday, carlile was collecting a bat when a bee jays player accidentally struck the young boy while taking a practice swing. He died sunday afternoon. He walked into the park and guys were giving him high fives, laughing with him, cracking joexz with him. For a 9yearold kid to have that much of an impact on some of these players is something they special and something they will cherish for the rest of their lives. Reporter a player for the bee jays posted this message on instagram late sunday, saying you are now in gods hands, and being the bat boy for the angels up above. Its what he enjoyed, its what he loved. He loved coming out to the ballpark and so as tragic as the event was that happened, i have absolutely no doubt he was enjoying life and enjoying where he was at. The umpire working saturdays game who hasnt scheduled to work that day is a veteran paramedic and he treated kaiser directly after the incident. Manager Adam Anderson said it was the umpires quick thinking and training that gave the 9yearold even a chance at survival. Oh, don, such a tough story. Thank you.

Zimbabwes wildlife officials as a suspect in a new investigation into an illegal lion hunt this past april. And like the american hunter who killed cecil the lion, seskis reputation has also been ravaged on the internet by opponents of trophy hunting. Pictures posted online show dr. Jan seskis prowess with a bow and arrow as he poses with numerous animals. But officials in zimbabwe want to speak with him about the lion he hunted in april, a hunt they say was done without the proper permit. Our Law Enforcement officers are looking into the matter so that we can really understand what transpired and if whatever happened in april was illegally done. Positioning system for the patient. Reporter seski has several offices in and around pittsburgh. He has not responded to numerous attempts by cbs news to contact him. The International Fund for Animal Welfare says about 600 lions are killed legally every year on trophy hunts. And 60 of those wind up in the u. S. The scarcity is helping to drive the killing of these creatures. Its not something to be proud of. Its not something to show pictures of, standing behind dead animals.

This weekend, zimbabwe suspended all lion, leopard and elephant hunts outside and banned bow hunting. There have been a number of positive developments since this tragedy with cecil has occurred. Were very optimistic that z zimbabwe is going to take this matter very seriously. Now, seski has not been charged, nor are officials in zimbabwe seeking his extradition. There were also reports this weekend that jericho, another male lion in cecils pride, had been killed by hunters, but Officials Say jericho was actually still alive and caring for cecils cubs. Gayle . All right. The more you hear about this story, i wonder if it will make people rethink the whole trophy hunting. When i was younger, i used to think it was kind of cool. Now i feel so very differently about it. Absolutely. I think its causing a lot of people to look twice. It doesnt seem rather gamely to have somebody release them so that you can shoot him. No, and the way he was killed. French investigators are meeting with a judge this morning to discuss that possible piece of debris from Malaysia Airlines flight 370. Malaysias transport minister says the wing piece is definitely from a boeing 777, but they are not sure its from the missing jet. Johnathan vigliotti is on reunion, thats the French Island off east africa where people are still trying to find more wreck an. Johnathan, good morning. Reporter good morning. Malaysian officials have sent their own crews to assist police in this ongoing search effort. At this point its been predominantly islanders helping police, and that has caused some confusion. The local beachcleaning crew that found a flap last wednesday was back this morning looking for more debris. There was, for a moment, hope yesterday that what police put in these silver cases were more pieces of an airplane. Instead, they were just parts of a rusty ladder. Reunions east coast is still open to the public, and locals have come here to help find more clues. Oh, maybe if we can find the part of the piece of the plane, we can find another piece, and maybe more than that. Reporter but on a beach where every washedup bit of weather debris could erupted last week, delaying search efforts. Its been a dramatic few days.

They are now asking for other territories to bring backup. Norah, this may be the closest they have come to getting answers. All right, johnathan vigliotti, thank you.

There is more real news, including tonights big republican president ial gathering. Donald trump is not coming but may dominate that conversation. But first, heres a look at todays eye opener. Containment on this fire 12 erratic winds and tripledigit temperatures have made a bad situation worse. In addition to the man who died, three others were severely injured when Severe Weather rolled through this field. Pilots of a regional jet from richmond reported seeing a drone, faa and Port Authority are investigating. Driver of the car that told police the shooter was his passenger. New details emerged about how this happened. The Vice President left the door open for a run. I dont think hes going to be that effective as a campaigner. Donald discovered one of the Fringe Benefits of president ial frontrunner stat out, freedom to call the sunday shows, no fancy suits new york brightly colored ties and no hair spray. You think people understand the risk theyre taking . I dont think they do. I ask people if they would drive blindfolded and of course the answer is no. Left center. Hit pretty well. Throw to the plate. Congratulations, your first career walkoff hit. This mornings eye opener at 8 00 presented by subway. Im charlie rose with gayle king and nora odonnell. There is a state of emergency this morning in california. 25 wildfires are burping across the state. The rocky fire west of sacramento is the biggest. Doubled in size over the weekend. Flames have burned 60,000 acres. The fires destroyed two dozen homes and forced thousands to evacuate. More than 6,000 other homes are threatened. Crews working to contain the fire before it reaches the town of clear lake. The northeast is breaking for potentially deadly storms. It already ripped through the midwest. One person died in a chicago suburb yesterday when a at any time collapsed at an outdoor festival. Strong winds ripped up the tent metal support poles, dozens were hurt. Thunderstorms also forced evacuation of the lollapalooza Music Festival in chicagos grant park. People took shelter in nearby parking garages. 14 of the 17 republican president ial candidates will appear together for the first time. Newspapers in three key states organized the forum. They want voters to see where all of the candidates stand, donald trump will not be there. He leads the gop field on a new poll with 19 support. Chris christie, john kasich, and rick perry are tied with 3 each. That is crucial only the top ten will be allowed to debate thursday on prime time television. Republican strategist frank luntz a cbs news contributor with us from california. Good morning. Good morning. So what do we look for in this New Hampshire debate . Well, theyre going to be trying out soundbytes because not as many people will be watching and theyll get a measure of each other. The difference between monday and thursday is that you dont have donald trump this evening and trump is going to be the focal point. I know the candidates have been preparing for him, theyve been doing various debate prep, had people stand in for him and nobody knows what trump is going to say and do on thursday. And thats why i think its going to be mostwatched primary debate in american history. Wow. How will certainly include us. Thats right. How will the knowso play out . What effect will that have, if any . People want to i dont think it will have any affect on the other candidates. Theyll get a chance to express their message. The difference in format is that each candidate goes individually. On thursday, theyre all lined up, and theyre going to have a chance to respond to each other. And of course, the big difference is, theres going to no one with trumps interest with his with his presentation, its going to be on the stage this evening. On the front page of the New York Times, Jonathan Martin has great reporting about how jeb bushs campaign is delighted by Donald Trumps surge. Has his surge kept those other alternatives to bush at bay . Its been very difficult for every candidate. Its as though trump sucked the energy out of the room. You dont get any stories about anybody else. I dont think its been good for jeb bush. I dont think its been good for any of the republican candidates because theyre trying to draw a very bright line between themselves and not only each other, but also Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party and its impossible to do if the focus is just on donald trump and all of the things hes saying. What came out of the Koch Brothers weekend . I actually am going to be speaking there in a couple of hours. And im going to be curious to ask participants what they thought. I knee carly fiorina, not part of the debate thursday night, she was definitely a favorite of the people who were there. You know, everyone is trying to size up these candidates and whats interesting about that koch conference is that theyre not looking at each other based on who is more intellectually pure or better speaker. They see these candidates versus Hillary Clinton because theyre so eager to have a replacement, a fill fof cal replacement in the white house and figure out whos best person, the best candidate for that job. Donald trump was not invited . He was not invited, no. How important is an endorsement of the Koch Brothers to republican candidate, frank, do you think . Well i dont think its the Koch Brothers and thats a misnomer people dont realize, there are 400, 500 people attending, Small Business owners, successful, most first generation and this is the American Dream thats all brought into one place at one time. They all have different candidates that they support. The one thing that theyve got in common is that theyre all about Economic Freedom and looking for a candidate with that who support less rules, less taxes, Less Government spend, Less Government involvement and more freedom. And they split, they split everybody a number of different candidates. Frank, it is true that a lot of the candidates have been making stops to meet with the Koch Brothers, hoping to get their support because their Financial Support can mean a lot. You know, a lot of money in politics, very true, a lot of money in politics on both sides but no difference in going to see people who are in that room versus those who go to the aflcio or those who go to see the teacher unions. Everyone who is running for president is desperate for two things, money and air time. You cannot win a president ial campaign without having both. Thank you, frank luntz. Certainly look like a laid back california scene where you are. Thank you very much. Love this. Thank you. Me, too. Thank you so much.

His death could have a Lasting Impact on his pride and other lions. Animal planet save salmoni is standing by. First on cbs this morning, the top pics from nearly 18,000 photos. National geographic traveler takes us behind the scenes on this years picture contest. Thats ahead. I love those pictures. Right now its time to show you some of this mornings headlines. The Washington Post reports on why reporters are not asking Actor Tom Cruise about scientolo scientology. Even jon stewart avoided the topic last week. Tom cruise is promoting his latest Mission Impossible movie which was number one this weekend. Reports say his Publicity Team stopped interviews from asking him about scientology or his dating life. Tom cruise is one of several celebrities to ban subjects after a highprofile controversy. The Dallas Morning News says cowboys star dez bryant got, in his words, a little overheated at training camp. Bryant took several swings at teammate tyler patman on sunday. It started when patman pulled bryants helmet off during a drill. He does not cool off until his quarterback, tony romo, got between them. Bryant and patman shared a hug when practice was over. And tributes to cecil the lion making history. Cecils likeness lit up the Empire State Building saturday night alongside a group of other endangered species. This is the first time moving images appeared on the iconic skyscraper. The display promoted a new documentary. Really just an incredible display. Yeah. Beautifully done. Says a lot. Cecils death and the killing of a second african lion have caused zimbabwe to crack down on new hunts. The Scientists Say the Lion Population is down more than 50 over 35 years, and one nature Group Considers it a vulnerable species. Dave salmoni is the animal planets large predator expert, and he joins us from toronto this morning. Dave, good morning. Hi, dave. Morning. Every time i see the pictures of cecil walking around, he looks so majestic to me. Like something out of lion king the movie. It really is heartbreaking to see him when hes walking around. And i wonder how his death has affected other lions in the reskron ar region and your thoughts on that. Yeah, i feel like theres a lot of impact that his death had. The Immediate Impact is on his own pride. Obviously, we now know that there was another, you know, coalition member, jericho, another big male thats left by himslf to defend the females and those cubs which makes them susceptible to any other coalitions. One male by himself is going to have a hard time defending those females and those cubs. And if new males do come in, theyre going to kill cecils cubs in order to have their own. And then long term, obviously the bigger problem with trophy hunting is the fact theyre always going after the biggest, the strongest. So what theyre doing is theyre removing the good genes out of the gene pool. Weve actually noticed over the last 30 years that the average size of a male lion has decreased significantly. How does trophy hunting work . Trophy hunting, it doesnt really work, to be honest. Its not a sustainable system. But what they do is typically, you know, these professional hunters will say come to my area. Shoot this animal or that. Oftentimes theyll have the animal already on their property. Theyll send pictures to someone and say hey, would you like to come and kill this thing . And they come over and have their experience. Wow. Do you think this will change things . I think its changed things already. I think it is a great representation. All of this attention that this story is getting represents the globes feelings on trophy hunting. I think, you know, african countries who make a majority of their income some of the southern and eastern parts of africa, the biggest industry they have is ecotourism. So the world is saying we dont we dont believe in trophy hunting. The world is saying well come to your country. Well come and look at your animals, but we dont support this. So i think its the awareness always creates a built of change. So what can people do at home to help, dave . To take action . I think the biggest the biggest thing is as i was talking about is, you know, if youre going to go to a certain country to have your once onceinalifetime safari, i think you should spend your money in places where people cant come and do these types of trophy hunts or at least the legalities are a lot more controlled. The other big thing, obviously, i always tell people is if you have your heart in the right place, if Lion Conservation is your thing or dolphin or whale or whatever animal it happens to be, you go and you research what the problems are. You see the groups that are doing things that you like, and you help them out. Maybe its with your skills, maybe its with your money. But there is something you can do for the animals that you love. David salmoni, well said. Thank you so much. And thunderstorms in chicago forced the locllapalooza Music Festival to end 30 minutes early on sunday.

Reporter for six National Geographic judges, they had to narrow it down. One by one they decided which would stay and which would go. No. No. Yes. Yes. I think this is elegant. Do you like it . Yeah, i like it. I like this one. Reporter Jim Richardson has been a National Geographic photographer for over 30 years. Is the judging subjective to some degree . I think ultimately you have to be in some way because what you have to measure is do these pictures get to me . When i look at this picture, something happened. Reporter is it usually an aha moment where you go, wow, look at that . Or does it take some time for it to grow on you . It can be both. Sometimes you just look at this thing and you go, yeah, there i get it. And those things are those moments are wonderful because they expand me. They take me someplace i havent been before, either physically in the world, geographically, or emotionally. The kind of reactions that you get out of a great novel. Reporter a judges emotional reaction to a photo can override the Technical Rules of photography. Some images pose questions. Who are these men . What are they doing . Is this bird escaping or meeting its demise . Im waiting to be shown something new. Reporter sara polger is a senior producer at National Geographic and runs the contest. I like working with all the photographs entered and looking to be taken to somewhere i havent been before. And when that happens, it clicks, and youre excited for both the photographer and for yourself to help go to that place and show this persons work. Reporter beth mccarly was on vacation in namibia. I was just so busy feeling like the area was so surreal and, like, i didnt want to take photos. I just wanted to enjoy it. Reporter but she snapped away, not sure if she was capturing what she was seeing until she got home. It almost looked just as surreal as it felt being there in those conditions with the moonlight out and the stars shining as well. Reporter how much of a role does luck play in getting a great photograph . In my career, ive had about three truly lucky pictures. Reporter so mostly its work. Never turn down luck. Never, never turn down luck, you know. Reporter anwar is a photographer in mexico. We talked to him on skype. We were very lucky that day. Reporter on a dive off a small island in the pacific, a humpback whale allowed him to get this close to her and her calf. You have to see things before they happen. They open up the stage, and we had divers surrounding the whale and moving away from her. And you can see the proportion of the whale. I knew that there was power in it. So we have 31. Reporter as the judging continued weve got to lose something. I dont want to lose the rhino. Dont lose the rhino. This one. Yeah. Reporter some judges felt powerful connections, but hard decisions had to be made. I just find that just bear as loan dont do it for me anymore. I think those two are going to lose out to the three guys looking out. Reporter finally yes. Yes. The winner, grand prize right there. I absolutely love this picture. Reporter they agreed. This is the one. Right, so we can now officially announce that this stunning photograph by anwar took first place, and anwars prize is an eightday National Geographic photo expedition to panama and costa rica. Second place goes to this image of gravel workers in bangla esche did and third place goes to this camel racing photograph taken in oman. Norah . All good choices. Great interviews. What a beautifully produced piece. Absolutely love it. Thank you. I love, chip, that you took us behind the scenes to see how the judges worked. That was really fun to get that perspecti perspective. Reporter it was fun. And in the end, theyre all winners, arent they . Yes, they are. Absolutely. Although a trip to panama and costa rica is nothing to sneeze at. Thanks again, chip.
