that disaster. more people hurt, more people killed today across syria. this is the city of homa where nine people died today in street battles between security forces and anti-government fighters. violence across the country has not let up, despite today s nationwide vote over whether to change syria s constitution. nelson mandela, the founding father of democracy in south africa is out of the hospital. he was discharged today after undergoing treatment for an abdominal ailment. a family member says it was hernia surgery. he s 93 years old. he was in prison for 27 years for fighting apartheid. he was released in 1990 and was awarded the nobel peace prize three years later. you know what that music means. now to the gop race for the presidential nomination. tuesday is shaping up to be a very important day with voters going to the polls in arizona and michigan. so we re watching those two states especially closely. i have two big developments to tell you about. first, th
about the cars, plural, that he owns. this feels good being back in michigan. you know? the trees are the right height. the streets are just right. i like the fact that most of the cars i see are detroit made automobiles. i drive a mustang and a chevy pickup truck and ann drives a couple of cadillacs, actually. and i used to have a dodge truck. so i used to have all three covered. just a cup of caddies. a poll taken before he told his wife drives a couple of cadillacs has romney leading santorum by two points. 13% for ron paul and 8% for newt gingrich. santorum had taken a lead in michigan so romney has stormed back. since the economic crisis, detroit, the setting for that speech, has occupied a place in our mind about what decline looks like. there is a tendency to forget that detroit was still a major

government tanks and troops. we are going to show you more of that very dramatic video. presidential candidate mitt romney addressing an empty stadium. more to the picture than meets the eye. we are going to explain. ever want to hand pick the person sitting next to you on a flight? good news. there s an app for that. from cnns world headquarters bringing you news and analysis from across the nation and around the globe. live from studio 7, this is cnn saturday morning. good morning, everyone. we start with a developing story out of south africa. former president, nelson mandela has been hospitalized with an abdominal complaint. his health declined in recent years and p has been living quietly with few appearances. what are you hearing? what s going on there? well, deb, as you can imagine, the african nation and many people who love and adore nelson mandela are holding their breath. he was admitted into the hospital. they are telling us it was because of a long st
reach new highs. 7.6 billion in 2011. almost all of it in north america. well done mr. romney. you just sold america and michigan on president obama s greatest american success story. to be fair, at least the romneys are doing their part and mrs. romney in particular. detroit made automobiles. i drive a mustang and a chev quick pickup truck and ann drives a couple of cadillacs actually. romney s campaign staff might want to tell him to stop talking. we ve got a fantastic friday panel with us. dr. peterson, i must start with you. which is it, do you work innen
