The rampage began just before 6 00 saturday night. Michigan state police say dalton first shot a woman multiple times in the parking lot of a kalamazoo townhouse complex and four hours later investigators believed he gunned down a father and son at a car dealership eight miles away. Less than 20 minutes later, police say dalton shot five more people in a Cracker Barrel and critically injuring a 14yearold girl. At 12 40 on sunday morning, police say the 45yearold father of two was pulled over and arrested after leaving a kalamazoo bar parking lot and authorities found a gun in his car.

Donald trump path to the nomination is becoming much clearer. Record voter turnout lifted trump to a big win in saturdays South Carolina primary. He beat marco rubio by 11 points. Ted cruz was a very close third. Jeb bush suspended his campaign on saturday before they even finished counting the votes. He finished fourth in South Carolina. Dean reynolds is in las vegas where candidates are rushing to pick up support before tomorrows gop caucuses. Dean, good morning. Reporter good morning. Well, history appears to be on Donald Trumps side in this race, because in recent years, no republican candidate has won both the New Hampshire primary and the South Carolina primary, and then gone on to lose the nomination. I love to win. Dont we love to win . Love it. Reporter in georgia on away by his big win in earlier. I tell you what, we are just going one after another. Yes. Reporter even a temporary his enthusiasm. Dont turn the lights on right . Reporter having raised questions about ted cruzs right to run for president , trump turned a similar argument against marco rubio sharing a tweet that questioned the floridas eligibility. Though, trump said he wasnt sure one way or another the other. I havent looked at it. Somebody said he is not and i retweeted it. 14 Million People between facebook and twitter and instagram. Reporter rubio said the move was typical trump. He says something edgy and outrageous and media flocks and covers that and no one else can get any coverage on that. Reporter second place finish more than one way to look at trumps win. Of the people left in this race no one can unite this party faster than i can. Reporter with the republican advantage. Cruz a close third on saturday, saw his own advantage. We are seeing people come together behind our campaign because we are the only campaign that has beaten donald trump and that can beat donald trump. Reporter now some pretty big crowds turned out for marco rubios three events on sunday and for viewers with a sharp eye, yes, that is donniee wallberg who showed up in nevada to endorse the florida senator even though wahlberg acknowledged he has never voted for a republican president ial candidate in his life. Dean, we are big fans of him. Thank you, dean. South carolina is the next test in the democratic campaign. Hillary clinton hopes to in nevada. She beat Bernie Sanders by six points but the candidates are still arguing over who won a key segment of the voters. Nancy cordes is in greenville, South Carolina, where sanders campaigned yesterday after losing to clinton in nevada. Reporter good morning. That nevada victory was a huge relief for the clinton camp and preserved her frontrunner status and they have no time to dwell on it because 13 contests in the next ten days, starting here in South Carolina. Shrugging off his nevada loss, sanders told a crowd of thousands in greenville, hes on a roll. If you look at National Polls and you want to a candidate who is going to defeat donald trump, youre looking at that candidate reporter tell that to clinton, who blitzed the vegas strip the last 48 hours to beat some may have doubted us but we never doubted each other reporter older voters, women and africanamericans, were all key to clintons victory. While younger voters, once again, were heavily for sanders. In a new memo, the clinton camp is disputing entrance polls that showed sanders won the latino vote by eight points. It is not possible that clinton lost the latino vote, the campaign writes, citing her doubledigit win in the heavily latino clark county, home of las vegas. As the caucus we attended caesars pals lass, the women voters were overwhelming clinton. Amazing [ inaudible ]. Reporter the fight goes on reporter its not academic. Both candidates are trying to prove they have an appeal for minority votes. Community has gone up and i think youre seeing our spaurtupport in the Africanamerican Community going up as well. Reporter sanders is winning the money raise according to january fundraising totals. He outraised clinton last month by nearly 7 million and outspent her as well which could explain why she is in california today fundraising. Thanks. Face the nation moderator and cbs news political director John Dickerson is in washington. John, good morning. Good morning, charlie. Reporter on the one hand, people say, marco rubio and others say donald trump is only getting onethird of the republican vote. A as well, other people suggest if anybody on the republican side wins New Hampshire and south unstoppable. Together . Well, we are going to find out now. The field has will lowed and this is what the antitrump forces have been hopefully, waiting for. The mainstream republican vote going up against donald trump. But the challenge then, and that person, marco rubio, says, is him, john kasich disputes that, but rubio is going to have to take the case to trump. What we saw in South Carolina is what we see with every Trump Victory is that the new things that he can survive, just quickly what he survived in South Carolina, being booed at two debates and taking on george w. Bush and getting in a fight with the pope and he survived all of that to win. So he looks in pretty good shape right now. Lets look forward to march 1st, super tuesday. Who is best positioned to do well in those states, huge delegate load there. Well, donald trump is best positioned. He has got the momentum of these wins. He is doing well in those states. Obviously, ted cruz has an advantage in texas. He also cruz also has advantage in those Southern States that are on super tuesday. But the problem for ted cruz is a state with 75 roughly percent of the evangelical voters and a lot of conservative voters and he couldnt beat trump there, after having been in sustained combat with him a month he couldnt beat him back. That suggests its hard for him to do that on super tuesday. Who benefits the most from jeb bushs departure from the race . It was an emotional time for him on saturday night. Im wondering if you heard anything about that . Both rubio and kasich said they have talked to people who donated to just about bush and have gotten some support. It looks like marco rubio is benefiting more. Its not so much the voters that will come to those two candidates, but its the money and so, right now, it looks like marco rubio may be grabbing some of that more than john kasich. It continues. John dickerson, thank you so much. Work this morning for the First Time Since the death of justice antonin scalia. Thousands of mourners gathered in washington saturday for his funeral. Scalias son paul led mass at jan crawford is at the Supreme Court where the remaining justices will hear oral arguments today in two cases. Jan, good morning. Reporter good morning. I mean, today really starts an uncertain chapter for Supreme Court. None of these eight justices have ever served on the Supreme Court without Justice Scalia. But when they take their seats on the bench this morning, scalias will be empty the next 30 days and its going to be covered in a black memorial cloth. Now, todays cases are runofthemill. One is a criminal case and one about government contracts but it is hard to imagine an oral argument without Justice Scalia there. He was such a dominate presence and without scalia, remember, this court is now divided 44 along ideological lines. Many of the controversial cases will probably end up in a tie and that means the Lower Court Decision will stand, unless the Supreme Court decides to reset them for argument next term. Jan, what are your sources telling you about where we are for scalia . Reporter well, the president has already started reviewing files on possible nominees but the republicans are saying that, you know, they are not going to confirm anyone that he sends up to the senate with the court in the balance, they dont want him to turn it to the left. The stakes could not be any higher. Jan, thank you so much. The fbi director is making a very personal and passionate plea in the standoff with apple over the San Bernardino gunmans iphone.

Tim cook says complying with the precedent. Secretary kerry says a ceasefire in syria is closer than ever. Bombings yesterday in damascus nd it killed up to 150 people. Elizabeth palmer is on a rare trip inside the syrian capital at the scene of one of the attacks. Elizabeth, good morning. Reporter good morning. Im standing just a few yards from where one of those massive car bombs went off. And the definite station is epic. The front of the buildings blown clean off. The people who lived in those apartments, the shopkeepers who had their businesses on the ground floor, they are all dead. Isis was never party to ceasefire but this proves their commitment to total war. However, the other players in this war, this conflict, do say they are ready for some kind of a truce. President assad said he was ready it over the weekend and the opposition says they are but the devil, as always, is in the details. When would it start . Who would participate . Who would monitor it . In northern syria, the syrian army, backed by russian planes, are conducting a huge offensive around syrias largest city aleppo aleppo. At the moment, they are winning. That may be a reason behind the scenes that the Assad Government is actually dragging its heels on any kind of truce. However, in the next couple of days, president obama is going to talk to russian president Vladimir Putin to try and add some heft to this push for some sort of limited pause in the war. Incredible reporting there. Thank you, Elizabeth Palmer in damascus damascus, syria. The cdc said it underestimated the health risks of Lumber Liquidators flooring. They exceeded the u. S.

Dont expect them to provide security because critics say one of the beyonces new songs disparages police. Jeb has been a great husband and son and great man and one of my four favorite sons.

Im charlie rose arewith gayle king and norah odonnell. The president ial race is turning to South Carolina. Clinton is almost a quarter of a way towards her partys nomination. She has 501 Convention Delegates and Bernie Sanders has only 70. Clintons campaign was relieved after saturday as win her razorthin victor iny in iowa. Sanders say they still have the momentum for the upcoming primaries and november election. Tomorrow. The top three finishers will be campaigning in nevada today. Trump trump swept the victory in saturday as voter turnout set a record. Marco rubio edged out ted cruz for second place by over 1,000 votes and jeb bushs third disappointing loss in a row marked the end of his president ial campaign. He suspended his campaign before all of the votes were counted. Peggy noonan is a cbs news contributor and is writing about the 2016 president ial race. Good morning. Good morning. It is monday yea we love monday. It was tough to see jeb bush on the stage pull out of the race. About where we are now . Oh, my gosh. It says a million things. This was a candidacy that i was beginning. It didnt seem to me that jeb was the answer to any question the Republican Base was asking. I think he proved that there is a lot of people in politics think we have got the money, we have got the money and we will blow you away. He had the money and he didnt blow anybody away. They think we can buy up all of the advisers and consultants and we are going to kill you. He handled all of those consultants and that talent and it didnt work. Nothing is sure in politics and that was something that didnt work. 150 Million Dollars didnt work. They say i wonder what is left and i wonder where it goes, you know . Sometimes a right time to run and sometimes a wrong time to run. Yeah, thats true. Also. Highly successful twoterm governor of florida. A while since he had run for office. He was not a great candidate. Part of the reason, you constantly saw his sense of unease out there. That so me is strersmysterious and i wonder what it was about. In a way jeb was really working and on the other side his psyche wasnt into it and his smile i noticed never reached his eyes. You know . Whereas a john kasich, he cant stop smiling. He is trying to get his eyes to calm down. A happy warrior. Yeah, i think he is. Donald trump is now leading in the 10 of the next 14 states, leading in the polls. Is he unstoppable . Well, you know, the proper approach of anybody prognosticating in politics right now is humiditylity. This doesnt seem like the oh, no. I mean for prognosticators i was to preface everything with, my god, nobody has any idea. But look. Everybody thought donald trump would stop himself with his mouth, with his feeling you didnt know what he was going to say next and he didnt know what he was going to say next. He hasnt stopped himself and he has just grown on. Interesting he had 25 of the party and polls and then maybe 30 and then maybe 34. It seems to me as he continues to roll up wins, as we expect he will, that ceiling will probably get higher which will affect look to the democrats. Where do you think hillary is today . Hillary is saved. She took it right in the face in New Hampshire, had a dangerous she just came back in nevada. She can now, i think, sort of subtly or not subtly paint her competitor Bernie Sanders as not a movement, but a little protest outlet. Do you think Bernie Sanders has helped her . You know, i think so far in two ways assuming he doesnt beat her, he has helped her in the fact that he gave her someone to sharpen herself against when she ran but also forced her to come up with a meaning of her campaign, that meaning is, i think, if im reading it right, i believe in progress that is possible. I believe in politics is the art of the possible. Saying. In other words, she is saying, deliver. He cant deliver anything. He is making all of these things up. All right, peggy. Depending on how many new voters he can bring into the race. That is very exciting. Even as it is on the trump side. New voters are a big part of it this year. Still very early in this race. Thank you, peggy noonan. Good to see you. Pop star kesha is getting support this morning from some of the biggest names in music. A judge last week ruled she cannot leave her recording contract. Now the pop star claims her producer who goes by dr. Luke sexually abused her. He denies the allegations and has not been criminally charged. A number of female musicians are supporting kesha including taylor swift who donated 250,000 to help the singer financially. Going down reporter platinum selling pop star kesha says she wants to keep making hits. But not working for the man she says tormented her for years. The singer filed suit against her long time music producer dr. Luke in 2014, claiming had he and emotionally abused her for a decade. Her career on hold, kesha wants to be released from her contract with dr. Luke and sony music entertainment. Sony is refusing and says she can choose her own producer. Friday, a judge agreed with the precord label and denying an injunction and leaving the 28yearold singer in tears. Opposite a criminal complaint, any medical records, a police report, or other evidence to support kesha claims, she could not rule that this contract should be set aside or terminated.

Calculus may be confusing for many people but we met two students who not only concustomered it but pulled off an achievement that stumped College Professors. In fairfax, virginia, chip reid is adding up the success. Reporter when i walked into this classroom this morning, i thought i was walking into a language class, because that is greek to me. But youre about to meet a couple of High School Students who know all of that and exactly what it means and a lot more. Landon may seem like an ordinary 15yearold. But he also knows what its like, at least in math, to achieve perfection. The more than 300,000 students around the world who took the advanced placement calculus test last year he is one of only 12 who achieved a perfect score and most of the test takers were juniors and seniors. He was a 14yearold sophomore. What does it feel like to have been perfect on this test . Honestly, its a little overwhelming. Its lots of interviews like this. Reporter and the tweet from the president . That was pretty cool. Reporter pretty cool . That is an understatement, right . Yeah. Reporter his perfect score placed him in the top. 004 . That means 1 in what . 25,000 . Reporter i got 2,500. Oh, very good he beat me at math. Beating a tv News Reporter at math is no big deal but landons parents say perfection is a big deal for him. Mom and dad, were you surprised he got a perfect score . I was surprised. Reporter not because you dont think highly of him . No, no. Reporter you thought else make a silly mistake . I did. That is just natural. Reporter even College Professors who write the exams make mistakes. The professors dont expect this and its remarkable when a High School Student who doesnt have a College Degree let alone a h. Ph. D. In this subject area does not miss a point. Reporter landon credits his calculus teacher ann watkins. Reporter can calculus be intuitive . Absolutely. Reporter you come to calculus to push the limits . Absolutely. One of my tshirts say calculus reporter that is something cedric understands as well, a 17yearold senior in Lincoln High School in los angeles, he, too, is one of the 12 students with a perfect score on the calculus exam. I like to absolutely math there is always an answer. But i know that there is not always an answer in upper level math. Sometimes there are unsolved problems and just the unknown out there that makes me want to, you know, solve it. Reporter cedrics record with rubik cube is 15 seconds and he has a near obsession with avoiding careless errors in math. I dont like make is mistakes, i dont. Reporter cedrics mother is a nurse foreign in the philippines and his mother is a Maintenance Worker originally from el salvador. This country offers a lot of good things to the immigrants, like us. I didnt have the opportunity to we are here to help him do whatever he wants. Reporter aside from the perfect score, that is another big thing cedric and landon have in common parents who encourage their children to do their best. The problem with somebody like landon, his best just keeps getting better, so its hard to know when he has done his best. Reporter as you can see, ive been using the time productively to sharpen my math skills and not sure about the last one. The number of today is 12. The number who had a perfect score on this exam. By the way, both landon and cedric want to be engineers. Landon wants to possibly send a rocket to mars and cedric wants to design something that is so cool that his name will be known around the world. Believe i believe that is going to happen i believe. Thats right. I love both parents, too. The pride that both parents felt yeah. Really good to see. That is the american story. Thats right. Immigrants come here and their kids take a real place. Succeed. Dont we line it . The best just keep getting better. There is a High Altitude trapeze act you wont see at the circus. The routine two miles above the ground aiming for a world record.

Surface temperatures will be above freezing throughout the event, thus, we will be mainly concerned with plain rain the forecast is coming up in this half hour, former cia and nsa director general Michael Hayden is in our toyota green room. There he is sitting with his brother harry. Hello, hayden brothers harry is here for mental support. We like it. We will explore apples fight with the fbi. American girl is getting ready to release, the first look at the dole months before it goes on sale. That story is ahead. Time to show you some of the mornings headlines from around the globe. The Los Angeles Times reports on a damming study out today that says hollywood is still largely whitewashed. Researchers at unc gave a failing grade to Major Media Companies which when it came to including women and minorities from ceos down to minor character. The report found the film as a straight white boys club. The New York Post reports that author harper lee kept an apartment in manhattan. Her to kill a mockingbird was set in the south and claimed alabama was her home. One neighbor in new york remembers her as hospitalible and she made them promise not to reveal details about her life. Harper was laid to rest over the weekend. The New York Times says a vaccine, since the government started recommending the hpv vaccine, the number of girls with the disease has fallen 64 . Hpv has dropped 34 in women aged 20 to 24. The vaccine is more effective the new Orleans Times is reporting Anthony Davis scored 59 points with 20 rebounds. The only player to report that in modern nba history. That is huge. 59 is a lot of points in the nba. He has prelreal promising potential. Tension is on display in the fbis standoff with apple over the San Bernardino terrorist iphone. A powerful intelligence insider is weighing in. Retired general major Michael Hayden says apple is right in principle, but the government has a point. Hayden created and oversaw programs designed to keep americans safe. He is director of the National Security agency and director of the cia in the past and he is now telling his side of the playing to the edge american intelligence in the age of terror. General hayden, good morning. Good morning. Lets look at the fbi story and make sure we understand exactly what you think. You have on the one hand, the fbi says we ought to be able to look at this. We need you to help us do it and only asking you to do it one time. Right. Ian apple says no such thing as one time. It means we are opening up privacy and violating the privacy of those people who buy iphones. What do you say. This is a morality play for the theme of the book which i describe is tough choices and not about the forces of light and the force of darkness. This is about balancing two virt things we want, liberty and safety and acting out in this particular sphere. I think apple is right in terms of opposing universal back doors to make it easier for any government to get into encrypted but is that what the government is asking them . No. But i am not convinced that what the fbi is asking apple to do in San Bernardino is that. And i think the burden of proof is on apple to show that there is an inevitable slippery slope from this very targeted focused request from the bureau, a slippery slope from that to this thing over here. Charlie, look. As you said, i ran nsa. Back doors are back doors. If they are in there, good Security Services around the world will exploit that and take advantage of that. Government too . The government actually wish us no good. You also say in the book when it comes to National Security and protecting our privacy and our lives, sometimes you have to go right to the edge and do whatever it takes. Thats right. Is it a bit of a contradiction to say, well, i dont totally oppose i agree with a back door . Do you know what im saying . Perpetual gray area and never easy choices but there are lines. I say playing to the edge and you should not go beyond a certain point. In my judgment, in this particular case is that universal back doors, although it may facilitate american Law Enforcement for very good purposes, on balance, on balance, actually are an overall negative for american security, not just american privacy. Why would Law Enforcement or intelligence agencies need the iphone exactly . In other words, you can go through the cloud. They have already checked his phone records, know who he has spoken with and pretty much cleaned a lot of material doing all of that. They have. And that is one of the arguments folks like me use for no universal back doors. There are other tools available. But, norah, in this particular case, it wasnt backed up to the cloud. And for the past 44 days before the attack . Right. And you cant get it to talk to it and changing its cloud code. And so youre back to apple needs to suppress the current ios which will destroy the data if you have unsuccessful attempt to open it. Can you clear something up for me . Its interesting to me to watch on saturday the fbi put out a blog case and this morning, tim cook emailing. A Public Relations war going on between the two of them. Isnt it true in the past apple has been cooperative and worked with the cia in the past . I wont get into operational details and apple has made it quite public they have been cooperative with american Law Enforcement with cases like this one but now apple is drawing this line. Ios 7 or ios 8 . I wouldnt get into the specifics. That is one of the detailed arguments that tilts this one way or the other. Interesting thing is District Attorney of new york has said he he cant gain access to an iphone and he needs that evidence in terms of dangerous criminals. No. Frankly, charlie, i think the u. S. Attorney here making that case undercuts jim comeys argument that i got one off that i need your help. Can we talk about your book for a second . Please here you are, the master secret keeper. For years you keep all of the secrets and now youre writing a book about the secrets. Im curious will the process for you and was it difficult for you to do . Did you struggle with it . First of all, ive been doing this for a while. Yes. I kind of know my own limits. Got it. So i write to what i think the edge is in terms of classification. But everything then has to be cleared and, in this case, by cia, and nsa and the director of national intelligence. And, frankly, gayle, in the conversations, i pretty much got to say everything i wanted to got to say it the way i wanted to say it. What was your process . I picked a topic. Lets take the Syrian Nuclear reactor. Lets take that. Long airplane rides with my ipad and kind of put out about 2,500, 3,000 words stream of consciousness and realized a lot of i dont remember. Go to the agency, ask to see documents. Ask to talk to people. Meet with them. Enrich the basic outline that i have. Now im about 80 , 85 of the way i need to be on that particular chapter. Can i ask you about the current president ial debate . I know you know bob gates well, the former secretary of defense. He has essentially said it would be its embarrassing the level of dialogue that is going on. When a candidate says they want to carpet bomb isis into oblivion, would that be possible . No and it would be unmoral and unworthy of a republic like ourselves. Secretary gates is absolutely right. These are hard issues and an infinin gray. Donald trump said he would waterboard. He said he would waterboard and a lot worse because they deserved it. This was never looking backward. This was trying to keep americans safe looking forward. People can argue what we did but it was never a form of punishment. Do drones raise any morality question for you . Obviously, i was intimately involved in targeted killings and in detail in the book and always raises moral questions. When the phone would ring in the middle of the night, charlie, i mean this, before i would pick it up, i said to myself, hayden, listen up. Whatever you are going to decide on this call, youre going to live with the rest of your lirve. Ive been told by cia directors there have been moments they identify where they not to because they knew the family was too close. Well, you make these value judgments all the time. The laws of war, necessity proportionality and distinction and it goes through your mind. I tell a story in the book with the United States, where they took a shot at a wmd exert for be al qaeda even though his grandson was nearby. We contributed to the intelligence to that shot. You had to make the decision. The United States had to make the decision do you take it or not . We tried to avoid the civilian loss of life. But the grandson was killed in that scenario . You had you can live with that . I can but without cavalier, i have grandchildren. When youre director of these kinds of agencies, you still have your personal moral self but youre acting on behalf of the nation and you have to realize its a failure to make a tough decision. The failure to take that kind of something catastrophic. General hayden, thank you. The book is called playing to the edge and goes on sale tomorrow. Only on cbs this morning, inside the designed studios at the company is American Girl is celebrating its 30th anniversary this it will release a New Historical doll. Jericka duncan went inside the Design Studio to get the first look at melody, the companys third black doll in its be forever historical line. Reporter for the last 30 years, American Girl dolls have brought countless smiles to faces of little girls. I like her reporter what is it about American Girl . I think its that we have stayed true to our mission and our purpose, and while it would be really easy to call us a doll company, we have always seen ourselves as story tellers. Reporter Vice President of marketing julia prohas ka says their doll comes with books that tap into imagination while providing a rich history lesson. We put at the center, stories and advice for girls that really are intended to help them be their personal best. Reporter stories like kia, is a native American Girl who wants to become a leader for her people. Or addie, a child slave who what wrol do you think the doll industry has in making sure there is diversity and little girls see that at a very early age . I think the doll industry has a very heavy responsibility in reflecting what is true about our society. Reporter but in 2014, the company was criticized for discontinuing four characters. Two were minorities. Africanamerican and a chinese american. In the 30 years, youve designed over 20 character dolls but only three of them had been black. Uhhuh. Reporter why is that . When we launched addie, the universal feeling was that we needed to address the very difficult topic of slavery before we addressed any other experience in black history. Then the orange one. Reporter this summer, American Girl is addressing another chapter of black history with the release of melody ellison. So here she is. Reporter she is a 9yearold during the 1960s several times era who loves to sing and uses her voice to make a difference. Why did it take until 2016 to see a doll that is representative of arguably one of the most important period for africanamericans today . Well, we do approach every character very thoughtfully so this isnt something we rush into. We are not looking to address critical demand. We are looking to tell stories in the most authentic and genuine way that we possibly can. Reporter clinical psychologist dr. Charlene jackson supports what American Girl is doing, but stresses the importance of seeing more modern stories for africanamerican dolls. As we encourage our children to learn about their history, we want also to teach them and show them that who they are right now in 2014 is fabulous as well. Probably purchased about 200 Senior Historian who developed melodys story. When we learn about the civil rights we learned about many and important people. Reporter to ensure her story was authentic, American Girl formed a sixpanel advisory board, made up of his toretorians and educators including the late civil rights bond. They worked with the board to bring melodys story to life. This doll is different. Reporter when it came to choosing her hair, northrop consulted the panel several times to get specifics. She even has her own bed and Recording Studio that plays music from motown. Reporter to build and keep interest in a company that has seen annual sales drop over 9 launched a new Campaign Last year.
