Ohio Governor John Kasich is struggling to stay in the race for the gop president ial nomination. He trails frontrunner donald trump by a mile. But says he expects to resuscitate his campaign in the early voting states. Kasich sat down with charlie, nora and gayle on cbs this morning. Pleased to welcome governor kasich to studio 57. Welcome. Always great to be here. Glad to have you here, governor. This is really good. We thank you for that. Lets first talk trade. As the the governor you supported trade as long as workers are protected. Do you support this bill . I think so, charlie. I havent seen all the details. The senate is going to look at it. Look, we want to have a strengthened group of people in asia to interface against the chinese. And trade can help do that. My concern about trade is when countries dump material into our country we wait for a year, two years before we get a resolution as to whether they cheated or not. So by the time we find out they dumped, people are out of work. I think we need an expedited process, somebody to stick up for the american worker. So free trade but no looking the other way. No bureaucratic slowdown. Inclined to support. Yeah, i think it is good for u. S. Not only in terms of economics also in terms of foreign policy. Trade can make a difference in strengthening us around the world. Lets talk the 2016 president ial race. You have taken a risk, differing on issues. Whether immigration, on gay marriage. On obama care. Do you think the partys platform need to evolve on those issues . First of all, i am not for obamacare. I dont flavor it. I have a plan to replace obamacare. Not just against it. I have a program that drives toward Quality Health care rather than quantity health care. Would take time to explain. Actually a legitimate alternative to keep prices down and make sure people have access. On gay marriage. Look i believe in traditional marriage. But the court has ruled. When the court rules, you know. Does your party need to evolve on that issue . I dont know if they dont have my position. They dont say much about it. Thats my position. The first one you raised was immigration. You dont believe in a wall. I believe in a wall. What i believe is we should have a guest worker program. And the people who were here who have abided by the law should be able to have a path to legalization. It know it practical to think we are going to go take, 10 million, 11 million, 12 million people. How are we going to get them . Ship them to the border and yell get out of our country it is not practical. By the way the folks who are here, many of them are creating a wonderful, stronger america. So, i think i think this can pass. See in this campaign we should stop talking about pie in the sky. And Start Talking about real solutions. I have been a reformer my entire lifetime. But i know huh to land a plane and get it done the question is has your party moved to the right so far that as a conservative, a long time conservative, its too far right for you and youre too far center for them . I think i have a right to define what the party is, charlie. Look, we have risen. I was up in second place in new hampshire. We have come down. The polls are volatile. We have the best organization in new hampshire. We are building out in iowa, South Carolina. Look if i win, i have a right to define what the party is. Along the way i am defining what it is. A party of economic growth. And economic growth. Not an end unto itself. But also can help people who live in the shadows, mentally ill, drug addicted tell you who else. The people in their 50s who faced job loss because their company left america or company shut down. They have become depressed. Alienated. Lonely. These are people that have to get opportunity to be trained so they can get work and support their family. I think this is a conservative message. Lets talk about the poll numbers for a second. In your own state you are down. Donald trump is beating you. People say you are one of the most experienced, most qualified. What do you need to do to break through. Whats your strategy . Is it frustrating for you, governor . My Approval Rating is well over 60 in ohio. I got like, very little negative. And very high positive. Nationally, my positive ratings are very high as opposed to my negatives. I have a big ceiling because people dont know yet. Look, you are all experienced. You know that places like ohio, like, iowa, and new hampshire, are launching pads. If i do well in new hampshire, you are going to have me back every day. So, thats. Thats what we do. Heres what i wanted to say. You can build a campaign where you rise real fast, but you have no underpinnings we have seen this with a candidate who ran and dropped out. Building the base to be sustaining. Lets get you on foreign policy. The big headline in syria. What russia is doing. There are reports that moscow is deliberately targeting u. S. Backed rebel groups. Sure they are now. Youre sure they are now. Reading the press reports that they are. What would you do to stop president putin from doing that . I called for a nofly zone, a week, two weeks ago, whatever it was. Sanctuary for people. Any body violates the nofly zone. I didnt have red lines that i dent stand by. You come into the nofly zone. You will suffer the consequences. You would shoot down a russian airplane . If anybody violates the nofly zone. I dont believe in painting a red line. What is a severe consequence . You know what it is. When you are commander in chief, you got to be steady and you got to be calm. I served on the Defense Committee 18 years. Everybody would understand what i am saying without having to use fiery rhetoric to get a headline the dont violate the nofly zone. We should have been supporting the rebels we must suppot the opposition to assad, it is an iran, assad, russian deal. The russians are there. Theyre there because there was a void. But on top of it in the long haul, russia doesnt have the influence there that they are seeking in the middle east weft have to reassert ourselves in many ways, establishing a nofly zone, helping the rebels. Training people. Creating a relationship with the kurds, with the sunni. We can make a big difference there. Send multiple messages about the strength of the United States reasserting our leadership. Who are you picking for your runningmate . Are you available . You are looking you are smart, you look great, youre articulate. Would you think about it . I will give it some thought. You have to get married first. No, well take her. Well take her. That would be a winning ticket. Thank you. The cbs overnight news will be right back. Yeah. Just wait til we hit ten thousand feet. Im gonna take mucinex sinusmax. Too late, were about to take off. These dissolve fast. Theyre new liquid gels. And youre coming with me. Wait, what . you realize i have gold status . Do i still get the miles . New mucinex ssinumax liquid gels. Dissolves fast to unleash max strength medicine. Start the relief. Ditch the misery. Lets end this. Weve been changing things up witoh yeah. Ve. Its a pleasure gel that magnifies both our sensations. It gives us chills in places weve never gotten chills before. Yeah, it makes us feel like.
