Dickerson a virtual tie for second place between marco rubio and ted cruz and loss for jeb bush. The people of iowa and New Hampshire and South Carolina have spoken i respect their decision. Tonight i am suspending my campaign. Dickerson well talk to the top three finishers in South Carolina plus Bernie Sanders and john kasich all coming up on captioning sponsored by cbs face the nation. Good morning welcome to face the make im john dickerson. It was a night for the front runners with Hillary Clinton finishing ahead of Bernie Sanders in nevada by sixpoint margin. Donald trump came up with a big win in South Carolina. Where he finished with of the vote. Marco rubio and ted cruz battled it another for second separated by just a thousand votes. Jeb bush pin finished a distant fourth and ended his campaign we have four republican president ial candidates we go first to donald trump who joins us from west palm beach. Mr. Trump, is it now your nomination to lose . Look, im dealing with very, very talented people, smart people, good people. I think they will be competing, i had great victory yesterday in South Carolina. It was amazing. New hampshire was amazing. The size of the victories i think were incredible. Yesterday i won every delegate. I won all seven congressional districts on top of having a big margin. That was a great victory. Were off to nevada, off to atlanta. Then i go to nevada where ill be for a couple of days i have lot of property out there, lot of great employees. I think i should do well in nevada. Dickerson if you get the nomination youd be shocked . Well, i wouldnt be shocked. Look again im competing against professional politicians, senators, top of the line. Ben carson is still in hes a terrific guy and a talented guy. Im competing against a lot of i dont want to say its mine. Certainly im leading, theres no question about that. Weve got long way to go. Dickerson marco rubio said now that the campaign is in this phase you have to be more specific about your Foreign Policy vision and knowledge. Well, i think i have great knowledge of Foreign Policy, frankly. Despite what some people said i was always against the war in iraq, lot of people werent. They just got on this bandwagon recently because it was a disaster. I had great knowledge of military and i think i have better vision for syria than lot of socalled great military geniuses saying to fight the war with syria. And my opinion theyre doing just the opposite, going to start World War Three over syria be there for the next 40 years. Weve whether b there for 15 years in the middle east much more than that probably. Weve spent probably 4 trillion maybe more than that. Its time to do something about it. You have to knock isis out. Dickerson let me ask you about your position on the iraq war. Youve referred to that a lot. Everybody has gone through the things you said. Seems like a lot more muted your opposition to the war, Everybody Knows when you Say Something its pretty clear what you mean. On iraq it was a little bit more muddled than youve been making it seem. Well, john, you have to understand i wasnt a politics, i hadnt even thought of being a politics, nobody every talked to me about the war. Not like now where every day youre being asked questions about things. I spoke with howard stern who is a friend of mine on his show. And this was many months before, he was talking about, yeah, i dont know, i was thinking about it. I didnt even think about it. When the war start, actually Joe Scarborough called yesterday and put something out where basically is on my side, that was early on, that was before the fact it was very early on. He interviewed me years ago at the very beginning that was just thank joe for that. Look, i was against it. I was against it very early. And we shouldnt have been in there. I think it is probably perhaps the worst mistake weve ever made. First of all, they didnt knock down the World Trade Center it wasnt iraq, it was other people. Without mentioning names, it was other people. Some day open the report and find out. But it was other people that knocked down the World Trade Center. So, no reason to go into a big thing now. It was a horrible mistake that unfortunately we should never have done we lost trillions of dollars, thousands of lives, Wounded Warriors who are all over the place and here is the other part. Iran is taking offeree a. They wanted it for decades and decades. Theyre taking it over. As you sit there and as i sit here, they are going in taking over, just walk in they can do whatever they want they are already taken it over. Dickerson last week when the pope made his remark about your especially religious should have easy ridge on or faith. Just last week you questioned ted cruises christianity several time in the course of the campaign might have helped you win South Carolina. Why is it okay for you not okay for the pope . , no i never questioned teds teds anything having to do with his religion. I just said you cant lie and hold up a bible. You cant do that. Just cant do that its not appropriate. I was tough on him. Because things were said abut me that were not true and marco rubio said that he lied, ive never seen a politician say to another politician that he lied. I guess it happens. But what marco actually gave me cover because he actually said the same thing, he said it during the debate that he was lying. I just said you cant say things which are lies and claim it. I dont think its good. Im not questioning his christianity i think its inappropriate to hold up the bible and lie. Dickerson do you think the you in South Carolina . Im asked that question so much. First, i was in state of shock because ive never seen the pope talk about something as unimportant as donald trump. I was like, the pope is talking about me . This cant be happening, is it good or bad . They said its bad. This was day before the election. I asked the pope is saying bad thing about me the day before the election . Then i gathered myself and i realized that it had to do with illegal immigration. That he was opposed to my measures which is basically creating a border. And i came out very strongly that we want a border and the Mexican Government probably convinced him that donald trump was saying not nice things about the border. I think it worked out well. I dont think it was a positive, though. I think it was probably neutral. I dont think it was negative but could have been a tremendous negative. Turned out to be probably mutual. I dont think it was the pope is very nice, by the way. Nice statement and i appreciated dickerson well have to leave it there, mr. Trump. Thanks so much for being with us. Thank you very much. Dickerson we go now to nashville and senator marco senator, youre saying that its now a threeman race. That means to get to the nomination you have to get past donald trump. Is that just going to happen or do you have to make that happen . You have to make that happen. But part of the dynamic up to this point is donald has been in the mid 30s to low 30s high 20s in most polls then 70 says were not voting for him. But theyre divided up. That five or seven people continues to narrow down going to make the race clearer and clear still have the then vote. There are people supporting donald trump that we believe we can win over as well. So it is a smaller race than it was last night. I think practically speaking it is down to three people who are still running full Scale National campaign. I have tremendous respect for governor carson i know hes john kasich is out there basically going to spend week in michigan make that his priority. Today alone well be in three states and continue to come pain everywhere. We feel really good about this coalescing. Of course anyone wants to join our effort they should go to our website marcorubio. Com. We need your help. Dickerson how are you going to take those voters away from donald trump. What is your argument . I think here is the argument im very realistic about the hall thanks we face. Ive seen it up close in 2010 i ran for the senate five years ago. Ive only been there five years but its been enough time to know the damage barack obama has done to this country. Im realistic, and optimistic about our future. A few things if we do them well have the greatest air rain our history. I think that is important. If i running to be president of the United States cant just tell people youre going to make America Great again, i think you need to begin exactly how youre going to do it policy wise. Were not going to win the general election with candidate obviously donald still has time then we can have policy debate about whose ideas are better. I honestly believe that once people begin to understand whats at stake here that we have a chance here not just to make our country great but greater than its ever been. We have plan to do it. I that i is going to influence a lot of voters not to mention coalesce those maybe with someone else first. Dickerson you want mr. Trump to be more specific, offer more policies, people have been asking abut that for him for months. The polls show that voters seem to be flocking to him because hes the stronger candidate on issues of national security. Are people wrong about that . How do you convince them theyre not right to be for trump because hes stronger . Well, i think strong rhetoric separate things. Anyone can use tough words, anyone can go over the top say things that sound strong. Enough. Youre going to do it. If you look at some of the policies hes talked about, they would not make america stronger. Troubling, i dont think hes fundamentally understands who he is or what hes trying to do. These are the kinds of things that i think in detail need to understand. When youre the commander in chief youre the commander in chief on day one. You dont get like sixmonth grace period. The world doesnt just stop, lets wait until the president catches up before we start challenging america. You got to know what youre doing on your very first day there. This is not an attack or anything that have nature, just very sim pep observation, if you want to be pad you have to start detailing some specific Public Policy and i dont think from this point forward in the campaign voters will be as tolerant of the lack of that as they have been up to now. Dickerson would you expect to see specific policy on . On everything. On health care. We all agree were going to repeal obamacare what but is it i. T. Going to be replaced with. Again, on issues of energy. How are we going to utilize our energy resources, what is the higher education. What kind of justices would you appoint to the Supreme Court not just because we have vacancy now but at least one or two potentially in the next four to eight years. Virtually every major issue that is before this country that is natural per view of the federal government, have some specificity of what youre going to do if you want to be president. Up to this point it hasnt been a huge factor but it will be. Let me say this, the democrats, if we dominate someone who is neb would you husband about these things theyre going to eat our lunch in november. We have to at this timely have someone ready to go that can win because we cannot lose this election. They cannot be the next president. Dickerson last question on politics. Three contests, you have yet to win one. Is there a daneer that everybodys second choice . No, i dont think so. Because as i explained earlier when you have seven or eight people competing for the same chunk of votes its a lot of votes. But if you have sech or eight people its all segmented. Now that the race begins to narrow you have clear indication. Had to happen before the winner take all states that will begin in the middle of march. We feel good about the states were going into and process to win delegates. Were in good shape. Got to keep working hard. Dickerson thanks for being with us, senator marco rubio. Thank you. Dickerson next up from columbia, South Carolinas texas senator ted cruz. You said last night your campaign was defying expectations in South Carolina. Wasnt the expectation that you should have done better in South Carolina given that large share of conservatives in the state and very large share of those who self identified as evangelical christians . You know, john, if you look at the first three primaries we started in iowa where all of the media said we didnt have a chance, we couldnt win. We won overwhelming victory in iowa with a big margin. We went on to New Hampshire, all the media said a conservative could not compete in a moderate new england state. We won very strong third place finish in New Hampshire. Where a week ago donald trump had a 20point dominating lead, ended up closing that gap tremendously and finishing with effectively tied for second place. And that combination, what that is done to the race is at this point weve seen the race, the field narrow dramatically and from is only one strong conservative who has a path to winning that is having the affect of unifying conservatives nationally and keying us up for nevada especially super tuesday, that was always our plan, do well in the first three states then compete and have very strong night. Were ideally positioned to do exactly that. Dickerson you made the case that youre the only candidate who can unite the diverse parts of the conservative coalition but when you look inside the exit polls, you do very well with those who identify as strongly conservative but you have trouble in the other areas. How are you going to solve that problem . One of the very encouraging we were in first place among young people in South Carolina. Its interesting because we also won young people in iowa and we took second among young people in New Hampshire. If you can stitch together that kind of coalition with young people bringing together conservatives and evangelicals and ill tell you in iowa we also won reagan democrats, working class voters. As you know, john, historically in order to have chance to win the nomination you have to win one of the first three states. There are only two people that have done that. Donald trump and me. And one of the things were seeing is across the country, there are a lot of republicans who think donald trump is not the right guy to go head to head with Hillary Clinton, that we probably lose that match up. About 70 of republicans believe that. Were seeing people come together behind our campaign because were the only campaign that has beaten donald trump and that can beat donald trump. You cant beat donald trump from the left. You cant beat donald with a donald wins that head to head. Head to head with me question beat donald trump by 16 points and so what were seeing, john, is incredible. People all over the country are going to tedcruz. Org, over 980,000 contribution we want a strong conservative. We want someone who can beat hillary and i beat hillary and donald sadly the polling shows doesnt. Dickerson let me ask you a question abut evangelical voters in north carolina, they went for donald trump over you. Do you think that he he during the course of the South Carolina campaign . Theres no doubt that both donald and marco got very personal, got very nasty. And both of them when you point to their records, they follow the same pattern, they scream liar, liar, they attack your character, as you know from the very beginning of this campaign nearly a year now, i have consistently refused to respond in kind. Im not going to impugn anyones integrity, not going to attack in fact i will happily praise both donald trump and marco rubio as men who i admire, as people im not going to go personal with them. But i do think we should be focused on substance and record. If you want a candidate who opposes amnesty, who opposes citizenship for the 12 Million People here illegal loo im the only candidate who opposes that. If you want candidate who is led the fight against obamacare, who will lift the burdens on Small Businesses and bring back jobs, im the only candidate in the race with that proven record. If you want candidate to defend life and marriage and religious liberty and Second Amendment and appoint strong constitutionalists to the court. Thats why conservatives are uniting behind our campaign. If they want to continue with the attacks thats their prerogative. Well stay focused on the substance. I think that that the voters want and what they deserve. Dickerson the question of immigration and building a wall, but hes had a lot of experience in the Business World executing, gettings things done in the businessman, what would you say to a voter who said, okay, you may share the same goals with donald trump on this, but you lack that experience of having executed the way he has in the private sector. Well, listen, i have joked more than once on the campaign trail that im going to build a wall. And i have somebody in mind to build it. Theres no doubt that if you want to building contract or donald would be a strong contender for that. The question we have here is who is a leader on this issue. Back in 2013 when we were having the epic battle on amnesty, when marco rubio joined up with barack obama and harry reid to push amnesty i led the fight against it Standing Shoulder to shoulder with Jeff Sessions and steve king and millions of americans, donald trump was no where to be found. He was tweeting support for amnesty just couple of years ago even now if you ask donald he wants to give citizenship to the illegally. He wants to deport them let them come right back in. If youre a hard working steel worker or truck driver, that drives down your wages, that takes away your jobs. I think we need to be fighting for the working member and women of the country not the money of new york interest. Dickerson well have to leave it there. Well be back in a minute. You cant predict.

Dickerson democratic primary in South Carolina is saturday, senator Bernie Sanders joins us from columbia, South Carolina. I want to start with South Carolina primary you said you have excellent chance on super tuesday but are you skipping over your chances in South Carolina . Well, john, im talking to you from columbia, South Carolina, we have major rally, were not skipping over anything. But i think that after South Carolina we have 11 states, we stand a good chance of winning a number of those states. We think we have a whole lot of we lost yesterday in a month ago we were 5 points behind. If you look at the National Polls, those are tightening up, some cases were ahead nationally. I think people around this country are responding to our message of a corrupt campaign, finance system and broken criminal justice system. Im feeling quite good. Dickerson how should people judge the Sanders Campaign as you said youve come a long way, your message has influenced Hillary Clinton a great deal. But should people say, where are some big wins for Bernie Sanders or should they say, this is a Message Campaign and let the message continue through the contest. No, this is not a Message Campaign. Were in this race to win. I think on super tuesday, for example, youll see major victories, john, as you know, most people know, that these are primary elections and caucus elections are proportional. That means that its not winner take all. 19 delegates we got 15 delegates we need 2400 to win. Its a state by state process. We are going to win some big states i think on super tuesday. Dickerson in the cbs poll nevada caucus, 90 said they thought Hillary Clinton had the right experience to be president. Only about 10 said you had the right experience. How do you change that feeling . Well, i think remember when we started this campaign, Hillary Clinton is almost universally known. She was a first lady, she was secretary of state, she was a senator. I am a senator from the very small state and great state of vermont. Not a lot of people know me or my experience. My 25 years in congress, eight years as mayor of the city of burlington. We got to get that word out. I think we are making progress, we have long way to go. People also have got to understand the agenda that we are fighting. This is a senator who has taken on every powerful special street, whether its Drug Companies ripping off the american people, military industrial complex, more people know our record the better we do. I point out, john, that just yesterday to the best of my knowledge we actually won latino vote in nevada that is a major break through for us in reaching out to a diverse nation. Dickerson that is major break through. Hillary clinton however won among African American voters, a large portion of the electorate in South Carolina, you dont seem to be making inroads and the clock is ticking. We are making inroads. We are doing better interestingly lot of holding that i see not along racial lines but generational lines. We are doing better and better among younger people, not so well among older people. Whether theyre white or latino. But we youre right are we have lot of work to do. But i think with the African American community understands record on economics, the agenda, raising minimum wage to 15 an hour. The fact that we have more people in jail shamefully than any other country on earth, i am against the death penalty, secretary clinton is not. I think as people become familiar with my ideas we are going to do better and better. Dickerson senator sanders, thanks soap for joining us. Well be right back. Hey, jesse. Who are you . Im vern, the orange money retirement rabbit from voya. Vern from voya . Yep, vern from voya. Why are you orange . Thats a little weird. Really . Thats the weird part in this scenario . Plook, orange money represents the money you put away for retirement. Save a little here and there, and over time, your money could multiply. See . Ah, ok. So, why are you orange . Funny. I have asthma. One of many pieces in my life. So when my asthma symptoms kept coming back on my longterm control medicine, i talked to my doctor and found a missing piece in my asthma treatment. Oncedaily breo prevents asthma symptoms. Breo is for adults with asthma not well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Breo wont replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. Breo opens up airways to help improve breathing for a full 24 hours. Breo contains a type of medicine that increases the risk of death from asthma problems and may increase the risk of hospitalization in children and adolescents. Breo is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on a longterm asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Once your asthma is well controlled, your doctor will decide if you can stop breo and prescribe a different asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. Do not take breo more than prescribed. See your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. Ask your doctor if 24hour breo could be a missing piece for you. See if youre eligible for we built our factories here because of a huge natural resource. Not the land. The water. Or power sources. It s the people. American workers. They build worldclass products. And that builds communities. And a better future. For all of us. Because making something in america means so much, to so many. Weathertech. Proudly made in america. Dickerson theres now only one governor left in the race. Ohios john kasich standing by this morning hes in columbus. Governor, we need to take a quick break but well be back in jake reese, day to feel alive jake reese, day to feel alive jake reese, day to feel alive how was your commute . Good. Yours . Good. Xerox real time analytics make transit systems run more smoothly. And morning chitchat. Less interesting. With xerox. Thank you for calling. Well be with you shortly. Yeah right. Xerox Predictive Analytics help companies provide a better and faster customer experience. Hello mr. Kent. Can i rebook your flight . Im here Customer Care can work better. With xerox. Wait im here mr. Kent . Dickerson some of our cbs for most of you well be right back with lot more face the nation including Ohio Governor john kasich. Plus talk to our cbs political commentate or. And well have our political panel. I dont know what im doing. I cant find anything just when i think its just not going to work. This woman that works there comes over and asks can i help you . And he was so happy, to do it amazing right . I never would have expected would have thought that anyone would find that do that. Make that go out of their way for me. Right then, right there i couldnt believe it he was so helpful i know its such a small thing little thing. Simple thing but it made me smile made me happy made my day share your story. Dickerson welcome back. Ohio Governor John Kasich joins us now. Governor i was talking to two ever your supporters in a super tuesday state. They would like to vote for you but theyre worried that the primaries happen, they should get behind maybe marco rubio because theyre worried about donald trump. Make your pitch to them about why they should stick with you . First of all, you know, im starting to get known in this country for the first time and a message is being heard. These guys have spent 50 spent about 15 million. The fact of the matter is a lot of the money they spent has been designed to hammer me, negative ads against me. Were getting big crowds everywhere we go. I was just in vermont, tremendous turn out. Massachusetts, im heading to virginia tomorrow. And we just keep going. And look, we finished second in New Hampshire. I think marco finished fifth. We never expected to finish at the top in South Carolina and i think frankly weve exceeded expectations there. The late voters, we did very well with. The late deciders. And were moving on and we feel good about where we are and, look, all i can tell saw the National Polls, were still strong, weve got good grass roots and everybody just hang on, things are going to settle down. Dickerson isnt there a sense of urgency youre getting wellknown, youre on the rise. But there is also contests happening, people are coming in ahead of you. Win to still have a shot at this . Well, look, we got to do well in vermont, in massachusetts. We think were going to do well in virginia. We believe that we will over perform in mississippi. We think we get to the midwest, whether its illinois or whether its michigan. Remember, john, as i heard Bernie Sanders saying its proportional. I dont have to win these places, i just have to hang in there and continue to gain momentum. And no one ever expect me to get in the race, they didnt think i would get on the debate stage, different they didnt think i would do well in New Hampshire i finished second. We went to South Carolina. Short period of time later two weeks ago people in South Carolina had no clue who i was. So, were the engine that can. Everybody just relax on this, look, think about it, there were 16 people in the race including a number of governors and theres only one left. And i think that at the end we have to make sure that we have somebody that can go to that town, change that system, grow employment, change the whole way states. Im optimistic about it. Dickerson one of the other arguments that people who would consider themselves mainstream republicans are making, only until there becomes one mainstream alternative to donald trump is there any chance for trim top get knocked off by people whose beliefs they share, why arent you just continuing to split the vote with marco rubio, address those concerns. Again, i finished second in New Hampshire. He finished fifth. I didnt play in South Carolina. Were going to go to march 19 to number of states, where we think were going to do well. Its a matter of continuing on, john. Being able to take advantage of the grass roots, we now have some bush people who have come our way both from a political point of view and a fundraising point of view. And were going to keep struggling. To make sure that we can be out there, keep putting the position of doing well. Remember this, im the person who beats Hillary Clinton by more than any other candidate in the usaed to today poll i beat by 11 points. Ive risen to third police in the National Polls out of no where without spending much money. I get the money, continue to put the grass roots together, youre going to see a great result. People want to consolidate. They ought to consolidate my way. Dickerson let me ask you a policy question. When we discussed Donald Trumps immigration thats not who we are as a country. In the exit polls in New Hampshire, 65 supported muslim immigration ban now in South Carolina 74 supported that policy. Maybe that this is who americans are . Its not all americans. I understand those polls. As a result that have, thats not going to change my position. Practical, i dont think its right. Just because somebody happens to be muslim faith doesnt make them a terrorist. Or make them a threat to america. Weve had relations with people all over the world of the muslim faith. Look, nobody wants anybody who is radical, who wants to move in here to be able to gain access. I said we should take a pause on these syrian migrants. I believe we should do that. But frankly to try to create some sort of a religious standard in terms of who can come to america, were a melting pot. As long as people have positive and good intent they ought to be able to come. Dickerson Governor John Kasich, thanks for being with us, we look forward to seeing you down the road. All right, john, thank you. Dickerson well be right back. Re am.

Im vern, the orange money retirement rabbit from voya. Vern from voya . Yep, vern from voya. Why are you orange . Thats a little weird. Really . Thats the weird part in this scenario . Plook, orange money represents the money you put away for retirement. Save a little here and there, and over time, your money could multiply. See . Ah, ok. So, why are you orange . Funny. Dickerson we turn now to very familiar face for our viewers in greenville, South Carolina, this morning, i just want to say, bob, it wouldnt be president ial campaign without you. Very happy to have you. Thank you very much. How do you like that job . Dickerson i like it all right. I had a great predecessor. Youre doing a great job. Dickerson what do you make of all this that is going on . Schieffer you know, i was listening to donald trump this morning he was mr. Nice guy. He was almost humble talking about, no, he doesnt have it wrapped up, running against very good people. Favorite to get the republican nomination to put it in one sentence. He didnt win here in South Carolina by as much as some people thought he would in the beginning. But it was a good solid victory. He goes in to super tuesday in nevada in a very strong position. But i also think that marco rubio is right when he said and toll you this morning, look, this is now a threeman race. I think for the first time it is. And i think with the race winnowing down as it is, donald trump may wind up getting the nomination but hes not going to cruise to it, john. Hes going to have his work cut out and going to be really good race from here on in, i think. Dickerson usually its a loss that hum bells you maybe in his case its the opposite. What do you think in Donald Trumps case actually how would you stop it . How can he be how can he be stopped . Say today that he thinks hes got to start giving some details on how hes going to do all of these things that hes promising to do. In many cases, donald trump is really connecting with voters. I went to one of his rallies down here the other night. You have to go, you have to be there in person to get the feel of whats going down. And people, he really connects with people. He speaks in language and in in sentences that they can understand. That people who like it. Sometimes you get the feeling theyre not even worried about what he says, they just enjoy hearing him say it. I asked one man, who do you really like about donald trump . You know, he speaks his mind. People just dont do that much any more. You may agree with him, disagree with him, you can certainly question some of the things that but the people who really like him, he is connecting with them. And i think thats his great asset. But the great follow up to most of the things he proposes is, how are you going to do that . He hasnt given us many details on that front yet. This is a great set up for super tuesday. This is going to really be an exciting night. We may see this winnow down even more. Dickerson quickly before i let you go. The democrats, whats your take on that race . Well, i think Hillary Clinton her ship may not have been totally righted but no longer taking on water. I think she comes now into South Carolina in a very strong position i think shes going to win down here overwhelmingly. If she doesnt her campaign is really in trouble because so much of the vote here is the black vote and she has got to carry the black vote. I think she will. I think shell win more of these Southern States down the line. Once a reporter always a reporter thanks for being with us well be back in a moment dickerson were back with our panel. Susan page is the Washington Bureau chief for usa today. Ron brownstein from the atlantic. Reihan salam editor of National Review and policy fellow at the National Review institute and Mark Leibovich is the chief National Correspondent for the New York Times magazine. I want to start with you susan, donald trump insulted george w. Bush, he got booed at two debates got into a fight with the pope was in a fight with ted cruz back and forth and still won South Carolina. Is this it . I think history is on his side. Wouldnt want to say that its his wouldnt want to say that hes won it but i think the nomination now his to lose cant figure out way which he would manage to lose given the things he has done. Points. No republican has ever won both those contests and failed to then get the nomination. Two of the three who did that i would say as i said, republican race can be summarized in two sentences, donald trump has consolidated the blue collar wing of the fragmented. He won 42 of the Republican Voters without a college education. Exactly same number in New Hampshire and as much as rubio and cruz combined. Less imposing among college it kate republicans. Only 25 among them. Only low 20s in iowa as well but the problem, cruz and rubio have mirror image problem. Cruises coalition is to narrow, rubio too shallow. Got a little bit of everything but hes not dominant anywhere. Until one of them shows they can broaden more effectively have to agree trump is in the drivers seat. Dickerson reihan, marco rubio said its going to become about policy. People have been trying for awhile to make that case. Do you think theres any chance that rubio is right about that . If youre looking at those trump voters, lot think of themselves as moderate. And yet rubio has been relying on the psyche that the quote, unquote, establishment lane is clear hes going to automatically win the voters over. That hasnt happened. On the other hand you have ted cruz very different problem. Ron mentioned cruises evangelical voters. Truth is when you look at South Carolina theres interesting split. When youre looking at evangelical voters who go to church once a week, cruise does very well with those voters. Of course theyre not that many of those voters in southeast compared to texas, oklahoma, the great plain states. Where as if you look at people who identify as evangelical christians but who are unchurched those are the folks who are going to trump. That. At one of the evangelicals, if you look with evangelicals by education as well. Donald trump won 44 of the without a college degree. He crushed cruise among them. On the other side, rubio narrowly beat cruise with a college degree. Getting squeezed from both sides. If donald trump can hold that 44 , anything like it among blue collar evangelicals who are big in the Southern States that quickly. Dickerson lets talk about the cruise wall, his argument hes going to do Railroad Well in super tuesday states. Hes now been in protracted back a month. He knows how to debate. He has currency with those voters and it hasnt worked so far. The reason it hasnt worked frankly numbers. The words coalescing, consolidating they have been very popular this morning. The fact is, donald trump has his own consolidated base at this point. Across many demographics, crosses evangelicals, young voters, older voters. Rubio thinks the establishment seems to think cruz will think they will flock to him. Until there are just two people, theres not going to be clear shot at donald trump. By that time, youre in the big states that have winner take all primaries which means donald trump with 35 of the vote could amass enough Convention Delegates to assure his nomination. The other thing that will change, promising cbs intern bob schieffer, there was sort of graciousness which everyone this morning, maybe just a rest period. But i do think that to take, donald trump. Marco rubio or ted cruz have to open this thing up. Have to go after him. I also think the policy specific piece, the problem that trump whole point im just going to make America Great again, spes i have, leave it at that. One area where he has very detailed policies and specifics on immigration hes moved sharply away from from that. For months its been very clear the number of republicans who want to increase immigration level is 4 of self identified republicans. You have all of these republican candidates. Rubio needed to do better job of getting specific about exactly how and why his position changed he failed to do that. On the as a matter of fact where trump has articulated his position, thats where the support is rooted. Clearly likely the business, the exit poll 44 of the voters in South Carolina are minority supporting all undocumented immigrants trump had almost half of them. Supported the within on muslim. He has established as you said he has constituency that cuts across many traditional demographic boundaries but still rooted in one slice for first time the blue collar wing of the candidate toward the nomination. White collar rain was essential for mccain and romney. Were seeing internal power shift in the party. Dickerson set the table for us the next big super tuesday fight. What does that look like. Weve been focusing on little tiny states now it gets opened up. A dozen states including texas might be state to watch in the polling that weve seen, weve seen cruz ahead of trump. What if trump beats cruz in texas how does it look. Two weeks later ohio test to see if john kasich stays in the race until ohio. At the moment trump is winning ohio. When you look at the super tuesday, you have bunch across the south. Got couple in other places. But its really a contest to go to the base of the Republican Party which is a southern base, well see who can carry that. Dickerson mark, usually people like to get mind a winner in politics in washington we see donald trump doesnt have any endorsements, senate or congress do you expect any that have to come . No. I dont. I think if it does, i dont think it will help or hurt. I expect marco rubio is surrounding himself with so many endorsements trying to roll them out periodically in the next few days. I dont think it matters. I think traditionally it doesnt matter. One of the reasons donald trump has been stand alone phenomenon that populism, still very populist problem is celebrity. And donald trump is a celebrity. Ted cruz, future is now. The states that are coming up are the heavily evangelical, heavily blue collar not only in the south but midwest. You cannot drive donald trump off of his stature given blue collar evangelicals hes won in New Hampshire and South Carolina then looking at places like alabama, arkansas, oklahoma, tennessee, also missouri, ohio, extent where if trump can hold those voters, just isnt enough for cruz. Cruz is so weak, among voters who are not evangelical. Cruz has a lot of money. Im assuming rubio staying in the race that is good for donald trump. Rubio could make a blue collar pitch. If he actually said, look, this guy is a plutocrat charlatan i have real went da. Thats something that he he always keyed up. He never talks about it unless moderator actually bring up, here is your tax plan. Whether or not that works thats the kind of message that could theoretically resonate. Rubio, the opening is there if donald trump faces more resistance on the white party side. Rubio now won College Graduates in two of the first three races by tiny margins not enough to make it different. Theres a door open for him that through and instead pitching himself more trying to canal buys conservative support of cruz and trump rather than veering more toward the lane. That elected john mccain and mitt romney. Dickerson mark, wouldnt marco rubio have to go right at donald trump . Isnt that the run . It has been to this point. Thats his only option. He does seem to, i mean, i think seems to be Going Forward just waits for things to coalesce around him. The endorsement. The establishment, which to his point shown not to exist over and over again. Yes, i dont think thats his inclination. Dickerson we got to go to the democrats. Give me your take on Hillary Clinton do herself good in nevada or where do you think . Definitely she lost in nevada state we expect though win in unwhether like the very narrow one. Unlike republicans, the democrats require proportional representation. I assume Bernie Sanders stays in this race, continues to get Convention Delegates, goes to the Convention Even if she has got it wrapped up, nomination wrapped up, presses his cause which i think was his original agenda. Dickerson the message . Good news nor Bernie Sanders in nevada that his generational advantage that we saw among white young people in iowa and New Hampshire extended to minority young people in nevada. That goes well for him. He lost older minority voters, even more than he lost older white voters. Under reported fact, hes having trouble with democrats. Only won 40 of self identified democrats roughly in nevada. Same in iowa. As john mccain found, hard to win a partys nomination if you cant get people to vote for you insufficient numbers. Yes, he is serious challenger not just one track candidate, not just young people, hes whites. He can fully expand, especially into African Americans, go to be hard to get over the top. Dickerson sanders can stay in for long time stick with his message doesnt that become, though, that hes constantly there, which is you cant bring in young voters they were part of the obama coalition. That would be quite damaging to hillary. First of all i want to praise explicit on demographics we all. I can say, thats a bruise that doesnt need poking, proven to be there over and over again. Its a problem for her, it was problem for her six months ago problem a year from now not a greer now, close to a year from now. He is a constant reminder in some ways remains ideal opponent for her because he moves her left, also hes probably not going to win. Only antidote Hillary Clinton but the negative response we had new poll out this week that said, what is your dominant reracks action to these peoples. To Hillary Clintons nomination was, scary. And that was also the domination dominant reaction to Donald Trumps nomination was scary. Election. Its worth noting that if you look how liberal these democratic primary electorates today even four years ago, its reflex of sha ripping of the Democratic Coalition where as trump for better or worse, appears to be egg growing the republican coalition. Its complicated. But that is one pattern that is striking between the two. Dickerson well have to end it there. Nothing scary about you all. Thank our panel. Well be right back. I think we shouldve taken a left at the river. Tarzan know where tarzan go tarzan does not know where tarzan go. Hey, excuse me, do you know where the waterfall . No, me tarzan, king of jungle. Why dont you want to just ask somebody . If youre a couple, you fight over directions. Its what you do. If you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. Oh ohhhhh its what you do. Ohhhhhh do you have to do thattright in my ear . Good morning, good morning, hello, my name is patricia rodriguez. Good morning governor, counsel, and jim allen. Good morning everyone. I think its still the most thing we can do for any family in this state is to create an opportunity for them to get a job. Im a single mother of three. Ive been working for the seminole tribe for fifteen years now. This company has given me the opportunity to provide for my children. How does it make you feel when you worry about whether this compact gets signed . If the compact isnt signed, then it does affect me tremendously because i would be out of a job. A month ago my sister passed away. She have children . How many . Five. So are you taking care of them . Yes. This compact not being signed would affect me and many people that have grown with me at this company. If would affect them immensely. Jobs for florida. Washington paused to reflect on the life and work of Supreme Court justice antonin scalia. Some 3,000 people attended his funeral including Vice President biden. Ten of the 11 living Supreme Court justices. Among the mourners scalias wife of 55 years, maureen and their nine children and dozen grandchildren. His son, paul, a Catholic Priest led the services. Justice scalia was 79 years old. Until next week for face the nation, im john dickerson. Heres whats coming up on retirement talk with sandy morris. Today were going to talk about building your financial house. And building your financial house is very much like building your own house. And last week we talked about cost and risk, this week were going to talk about social security. And this is a totally hot topic right now.
