because the president's doing nothin nothing. >> president obama says there's not much he can do for immediate relief. >> you know there are no quick fixes to the problem. and you know we can't just drill our way to lower gas prices. if we're going to take control of our energy future and avoid these gas spikes down the line, then we need a sustained, all of the above strategy that develops every available source of american energy. oil, gas, wind, solar, nuclear, biofuels and more. >> so had a chance to talk to some voters here about whether or not the politicians are really offering some solutions. or whether or not it's just hot air. >> all right. away we go. welcome to my office. >> beautiful. >> got the best view in town. >> the view, phoenix, arizona. small business owner, kevin flanagan. >> how long you been doing this? >> i've been flying hot air balloons for 28 years now. i've been one of the luckiest guys around. >> but kevin's luck is running out. >> there's 105 thousand feet of cubic space. the propane heats the air and makes it fly. whenever the gas prices glo o u propane prices shoot up. now it's $2.99 a gallon overnight. >> so how does that affect your profit? >> it takes any profit away. right now i would say most companies are operating to break even. >> so that's the view from 1,000 feet above. but what about on the ground? we decided to come to the desert's edge rv camp. this is where folks travel across the country in the trailers and rvs. these are the people who are really impacted by the rising price of gas. this is home for now. yeah? >> this is our home. our vacation home. >> it's fantastic. i love it. >> home away from home. >> it's huge. it's really big. tell me a little bit about, what does it cost to fill the tank? >> well, it's a 100-gallon tank. it will cost $4 a gallon. $400 to fill the tank. >> for dean baker, that means cutting back on family vacations, but the expense is still worth it. >> being in this enclosed space with two little kids, a 5 and an 8-year-old. sometimes it will drive you crazy. it's great. you have everything you need here. it's family time, but being together real close. it's a close-knit time. that's the greatest part. >> you can't beat that. >> yeah. >> you want mild and you want spicy? >> yeah. >> we met chefs pam and ron who traveled all the way from washington state. >> we have the original flavor, heavy garlic and soy with a touch of cayenne. >> they say higher gas prices mean lower sales. >> by mid year if it's still high or higher, it will translate to my product price, and that means probably less sales as well. >> and despite big promises from the republican candidates that they'll break gas prices down, no one i talked to here was buying it. >> any republican candidate do you think has a good idea to bring the place back? >> at this point, i don't know. i'm confused by politics. everybody is saying stuff and how it's going to turn around. the bottom result is at the pum pump. >> we're also following another story, breaking news. we'll have more on the school shooting in ohio. that after a quick break. man: 1939 -- my parents ran across an ad for a hot dog cart. my mother said, "well, maybe we ought to buy this hot dog cart and set it up someplace." so my parents went to bank of america. they met with the branch manager and they said, "look, we've got this little hot dog cart, and it's on a really good corner. let's see if we can buy the property." and the branch manager said, "all right, i will take a chance with the two of you." and we've been loyal to bank of america for the last 71 years. they sound awesome tonight. and when i do find it, i share it with the world. you landed the u.s. tour ? done. this is fantastic ! music is my life and i want to make the most of it without missing a beat. fly without putting your life on pause. be yourself nonstop. american airlines. more from the shooting at the ohio school. thank you for joining us. can you give us a sense of how many students were injured at the high school? how many were taken to the hospital. and what are the extend of the injuries is? >> we have two of the students here in midfield heights. one female and one male. one is in serious condition. one is in stable condition. both received injuries from gunshot gunshots. >> can you tell us if you expect other students to arrive at the hospital. has there been word about whether or not there are other victims? >> at this time, we have not received any word that we're receiving anymore. >> and what are the natures of the injuries? one is in stable -- these are not life threatening injuries. is that right? >> we have one in serious condition. and one in stable conditions. both are from gunshots. >> were they shot multiple times? >> you know what, i don't have that specific detail. just that they were gunshot wounds. >> are they able to communicate or talk to you. have they been able to tell you what took place in side of the school? >> caller: no, i haven't spoken with either student. >> do you know if the parents are aware of who they are? have the parents been notified? >> caller: yes. family has been notified and they are here. >> i'm sorry. i couldn't hear you. are the parents aware? >> caller: yes. family have been made aware. both families are here. >> are you releasing the identities of any of the students who have been shot or injured? >> no at the request of the families, they asked us not to release any names. what more can you tell us? are you learning any new information from the students? >> that would be from the schools to share that information. we're focusing our care on these two students. >> do you know if there are any students who were shot who have life threatening injuries, or is it your understanding that those two students in your care are the only two that have been injured? or others have been taken to other area hospitals. >> we have two here. i believe the other hospitals have some the students as well. >> do you know if any of those students have been injured? have life threatening injuries at the other hospitals or other facilities. >> no, i don't know that. >> okay. >> well, thank you heather phillips. we appreciate your time. we'll get information about the extebt of the injuries. thank you very much. more apparent retaliation for the burning of korans at a u.s. base in afghanistan. we've seen days of violent protest across the country. now we're seeing a car bombing. u.s. officers being killed and an attempt to poison a dining hall for u.s. troops. nick, it seems to me as if the situation is getting worse now. you have the taliban that are claiming responsibility. what are we seeing on the ground here? >> we're in the seventh straight day of koran burning related violence. protests have aired, but today we had a rather awful suicide bombings. six civilians and three security guards killed in the airport in the east of the country. it may have been the personnel at the airport. unfortunately the taliban quickly claimed this as an act of vengeance for the mistaken koran burning by the act of troops not far from where i'm standing. violence will continue as it warms up in the months ahead. it suggests that all of their acts are perhaps somehow vengeance for the one you think intentional mistake they've made. >> it seems like there's a growing concern that the afghan president karzai is not doing all he can to stop the violence to americans. some took offense that he didn't mention two american officers were killed until asked about it at a news conference. are we seeing the relationship between the united states and the afghan leadership? >> yes, that's pretty fair. always a much worse relationship in reality than both sides like to say. i think particularly the act of the press komps, particularly it's slow to call for a protest when they first broke out and made many officials a little concerned as to whether he could be considered a reliable partner. that's something we heard from years past. what we have to look for in the days ahead is the issue of trust between americans and afghans. the taliban came out with an e-mail saying they poisoned and killed them. he said in this case, yes, there had been contamination by chlorine bleach in food. instnss like this with the shooting of four americans in the past week just feed into the whole sense that the americans here don't necessarily have the trust they need in the afghans they're teaching to take over security so they can leave. that's really a threat because of the week's violence. >> yeah, nick, i know in speaking to president karzai, in the 11th anniversary. often coy and critical of president obama. it certainly seems that things are deteriorating. thank you. nick paton walsh. appreciate it. would having the strategic oil reserve is spiking gas prices. some say it's time to do it. we're going to go in depth. carfirmation. only hertz gives you a carfirmation. hey. this is challenger. i'll be waiting for you in stall 5. it confirms your reservation and the location your car is in, the moment you land. it's just another way you'll be traveling at the speed of hertz. your doctor will say get smart about your weight. that's why there's new glucerna hunger smart shakes. they have carb steady, with carbs that digest slowly to help minimize blood sugar spikes. [ male announcer ] new glucerna hunger smart. a smart way to help manage hunger and diabetes. all right. seems every time you blink gas prices going up again. according to aaa, prices have plunged 20 straight days. that's right. national average is now 3.$70 a gallon. the average american pumps about 7.5% of their income into their tanks. white house correspondent dan lothian is joining us for today's in depth. great to see you. we know this is the kind of problem that the president has dealt with before. president bush dealt with it as well. you have democrats calling on the president to tap into the strategic oil reserves to ease the prices. does he sound amenable to that at all? what would be the point? >> you're so right. representative markey, a democrat, two others signed the letter, sending it to the president, asking him to tap the reserve. obviously the sense is this might provide some temporary relief to the high gas prices that are expected to continue to rise, at least accord thog the experts. from the white house, they're not ruling anything in, not ruling anything out. aides here are saying all options remain on the table. perhaps a little bit of a hint we got last week from secretary geithner, he said there's a case for the use of the reserves in some circumstances. but he went on that they're still evaluating the administration. in fact, the obama administration did it last summer, responding to the loss of the libyan oil. 30 million barrels, then dating back to 1977, 1991, 2000, 2005. the message from the white house is they don't want a temporary fix. this requires a long-term solution, not some kind of, quote, silver bullet, suzanne. >> yeah, dan. if they did this, would it actually work. would gas prices go down? white house believes? >> well, i think the experts will look at this and say temporarily there might be a dip providing at least psychologically some sense that there's more oil coming into the market. so it could. but long term there's a sense that something like this won't work. but politically for the president, there's a lot of pressure here. because in an election year, no president wants to be sitting on gas prices at these levels and again, threatening to go even higher. and there's pressure coming, as we pointed, not only from republicans, but from democrats. so it will be interesting to see what the white house decides to do over the coming days. right now they're saying the word here is that all options remain on the table. >> all right, dan. thank you very much. gas prices, number one issue for them. and they're looking to president obama. they're complaining about him. they're also complaining about the republican candidates as well. they don't have a lot of faith that they can really handle this. and gas prices going down. dan lothian, thank you there at the white house. and here's your chance to talk back on one of the stories of the day. now this story really got us talking here. you're talking about a world war ii veteran is attacked. his car is stolen, and then he had to crawl on his hands and knees to get to a gas station. well, at first, no one helped him. 86-year-old aaron brantley was on his way home from church when someone jumped him from behind, broke his leg and drove off in his car. so this was all in broad daylight. as you can see by the surveillance video, people just walked away. just kept walking by as he struggled for help. >> i opened the door, and proceeded to get in. all i can do, i was on the ground. they don't care about you. there's a saying why things are like they are now. >> he makes it inside the station. he offered money to a man to help him out. a good samaritan, took him home with him, but he didn't accept the money. it brings us to today's talk back question. this is a heartbreaking story here. but we see the video. what would you do if you saw someone struggling for help? send us your thoughts at facebook.com/suzanne/cnn. i'll read your responses at the top of the hour. we're also keeping an eye on the white house. president obama and vice president biden are talking to the national governor's association. going to take a listen on what they have to say after a quick break. [ male announcer ] the cadillac cts sport sedan was designed with near-perfect weight balance from front to back... and back to front. ♪ giving you exceptional control from left to right... and right to left. ♪ the cadillac cts. ♪ we don't just make luxury cars. we make cadillacs. i want to go to the white house. president obama speaking before the national governor's association. let's listen in. >> we know what it means to guide. what it means to make tough choices during tough times and hopefully to forge some kmond ground. we all felt the weight of big decisions and the impact those decisions have on the people that we represent. i first addressed this group three years ago. it was a moment, as joe mentioned, when the economy was in a free fall. some of you were just coming in the office at that time as well. hundreds of thousands of americans were losing their jobs or their homes every month. businesses were closing their doors at a heartbreaking pace. the entire auto industry was on the verge of collapse, and all told the prospects of us going into a full-blown depression were very real. today there's no doubt that enormous challenges were made. but the fact of the matter is that american businesses have created 3.7 million new jobs. manufacturers are hiring for the first time since the 1990s. the auto industry is back. our recovery is gaining speed, and the economy is getting stronger. we have to do everything we can to make sure that we sustain this progress. that means we've got to strengthen american manufacturing so that more and more good jobs and products are made here in america. we have to develop new sources of energy so we're less dependent on foreign oil and yearly spikes in gas prices, and it means that we've got to make sure that every american is equipped with the skills, with the education they need to compete for the jobs of tomorrow as well as the jobs of today. that's what i want to talk to these governors about. no issue will have a bigger impact on the performance of our economy than education. in the long run it's going to determine whether or not businesses stay here. it will determine weather businesses are created here. whether businesses are hiring here. and it will determine whether there's going to be an abundance of good, middle class jobs in america. today the unemployment rate for americans with at least a college degree is about half the national average. their incomes are about twice as high as those who only have a high school diploma. so this is what we should be focused on as a nation. it's what we should be talking about and debating. countries who out educate us today will outcompete us tomorrow. that's a simple fact. if we want america to continue to be number one and stay number one, we have some work to do. in the last three years we've made important progress together. we have broken through the traditional stalemate of left and right by launching a national competition to improve our schools. arnie has done an outstanding job of saying we have to get past the old office. whether it's the dogmas on the liberal side or the conservative side and figure out what works. we've invested, but we've invested in reform. and for less than 1% of what our nation spends on education each year. almost all of you have agreed to raise standards for teaching and learning. that's the first time that happened in a generation. we also worked with all of you, democrats and republicans to fix no child left behind. if you're willing to selt more higher, honest standards we'll give you more flexibility to meet the standards. aannoun i announced the first 11 get a waiver. i hope we are adding more stakes soon. i believe education is an issue that is best addressed at the state level. and governors are in the best decision to have the biggest impact. i realize that everybody is dealing with limited resources. trust me. i know something about trying to deal with tight budgets. we've all faced stark choices over the past several years. but that is no excuse to lose sight of what matters most. the fact is that too many states are making cuts to education that i believe are simply too big. nothing more clearly signals what you value as a state than the decisions you make about where to invest. budgets are about choices. so today i'm calling on all of you, invest more in education. invest more in our children and in our future. that doesn't mean you have to invest in things not working. that doesn't mean it makes sense to break from china and move aggressively on reform. the fact of the matter is we don't have to choose between resources and reform, we need resources and reform. now there are two areas in education that demand our immediate focus. first we just got to get more teachers into the classrooms. over the past four years, school districts across america have lost over 250,000 educators. 250,000 teachers. >> president obama addressing a group of governors there at the white house. it's the last day of the group's annual winter meeting. today it's all business. the governors are talking to the president about job growth, how to create partnerships with the federal government. last night was a lot more fun. it was a black tie dinner. but there was one governor who was missing at last night's dinner. that's jan brewer. she told her staff it was a social event so she didn't participate. her staff says she's now attending today's meetings. so we wanted to know what was up with the arizona governor. want to bring in mark preston. mark, she's not here. she's in washington attending the meetings. is the white house seeing this? >> how can they not? the fact is governor brewer and her do not see eye to eye on policy issues. unfortunately between the two of them, because they're both powerful politicians. we saw that during mr. obama's visit to phoenix when she confronted him and literally waived her finger up to her nose. i spoke to someone close to the governor. and she told me because it was a social event, she had other things to do. she didn't feel like she needed to be there. but this person tells me it doesn't have anything to do with it. >> let's talk about the relationship. i talk to folks in arizona. they like the governor. they like the fact that she has a different position on immigration than the president does. but do we think as long as you have attention or talk about these two and their relationship, does it help or does it hurt president obama? >> certainly when it comes to immigration they're not going to see eye to eye. when it comes to a lot of policy positions they're not going to see eye to eye. yesterday she came out. no surprise. she gave an endorsement no the republican. she gave it to mitt romney. what's interesting about that for mitt romney now, suzanne, is that having her endorsement could help him with conservative voters. as far as any relationship that might exist or could potentially exist between president obama and jan brewer, i don't think we'll see it happen. >> folks in arizona certainly think it's to her advantage to take on the president and how the tension is back and forth between the two. great to see you. i want to invite viewers to join us tomorrow night. we'll be here in arizona following the primary here. we're also following special coverage michigan primaries. special edition of john king usa at 6:00 eastern. and then complete live coverage of the results starting at 7:00 eastern with my colleagues, friends, wolf blitzer and the rest of cnn's political team. well, this guy, he calls himself america's toughest sheriff. well, i caught up with arizona's joe arpaio under the weekend. he was signing pink underwear. he became famous for making prisoners wear pink. he has a lot of pull with arizona voters and the republican presidential candidates are going after his endorse. big time ahead of tomorrow's primary. tell me a little bit about who you've seen lately. i know you're have a very popular person among the candidates. >> well, i guess a couple came to my office. michele bachmann, herman cain, and of course, perry. i campaigned for him in iowa. which i see a lot of iowa people walking by. and romney called me briefly. >> how did that go? >> this goes back three or four months ago. i was his campaign guy four years ago. and then newt called me last week. so we talked about immigration. but they also want my endorsement. who are you going to give your endorsement to? >> you haven't decided. why not? >> we'll see what happens. they're all good people. we'll see what happens. >> all right. he's playing coy now. hear more of my conversation with the sheriff tomorrow. we're going to go head to head on immigration. that's tomorrow. cnn starting at 11:00 eastern. now this veteran car jacks and then crawled on his hands and knees to get help. nobody stopped. today's

(announcer) starts working on contact and at the nerve leve. to block pain for hours. new capzasin, takes the pain out of arthritis. all right. a world war ii veteran crawls on his hands and knees to safety after being attacked at a gas station. so what is joult rageous is that first nobody offers to help him. we sounded off on the talk back question. what would you do if you saw somebody struggling for help. mary writes, help him, of course. sometimes i really wonder about this me first society being fostered by current political rhetoric of screw thy neighbor and party over the people. it certainly does not bode well for our future as a civilization. brandon says my parents taught me about right and wrong and the right thing to do, would be to help that person. it's not about gaining fame or notoriety. the person that walks away should not be considered part of humanity. but mike says i would like to think i would help. but the sad reality is if i see a strange old man crawling on the ground, i would more than likely try to avoid him. michelle writes, it should be a no brainer. what possesses people just to walk by and do nothing is beyond me. not only would i stop and help, i would make sure he had help in his home in the recovery of a broken leg. ryan says this becoming an all too often warning sign of america that has lost the moral compass. keep the conversation going on my facebook page. going to read more of your responses in the next hour. gas prices getting close now. if you can believe this, to the $4 mark. so we have some ways to save. one tim. don't let your tank run on empty. we're going to explain all right. i don't need to tell you this. you know gas prices are up. they're getting closer and closer to $4 a gallon. right now national average is at $3.70 a gallon. alison kosik is here to save us some money. i know what the tips are. i don't think i'm doing it right. why don't you tell us what we got to do? >> okay, so that means that you are getting that sort of sticker shock when you get that grand total, after you fill up your gas tank. so you want to save money like everybody else. aaa says, for one, don't run your gas tank to empty. it will cost you more in the end. $500 more to replace parts like the electrical fuel pump inside the tank which could overheat if you don't have the minimum level of fuel. a good rule of them, suzanne, always have a quarter tank of fuel in there. >> yeah, i'm always the one just running on fumes, actually. so that's great advice. the way you drive. it's true. >> the way youdrive, i guess it could save you a couple of dollars as well. explain how. >> so if you're one of those people that idles in your car, don't do that. you can waste up to a quarter to half gallon of fuel depending on what kind of air conditioning you use. you want to turn the car off and restart it if you're sitting still and if you're an aggressive driver, you know who you are, either lowering your gas mileage by 33% on the highway and 5% around town and could be costing up to $1.18 per gallon. also, get the junk out of your trunk. avoid unnecessary weight that can be a drag on your gas savings. suzanne? >> all right. junk out of the trunk. got that. does it matter whether you pay with a debit or credit card at all? >> it does. don't use your debit car to pay at the pump. this is something that i didn't know. if you're low on funds in the account, that's tied to your debit card. the merchant can sometimes hold more than the amount that you hold at the pump. this is only an issue when you swipe your car outside before you fuel up. the charge winds up clearing and it is the right amount. but if you're close to zero dollars in your debit account, you can be charged with fees and other transactions may not clear. >> all right. i don't do any of those things and i guess i need to change the way i do it so i can save some money here. thank you, alison. we're actually here in phoenix for the republican primary. we want to give you a view on the ground, of course, but also from up above. we're going to take you on a ride in the skies above arizona straight ahead. ♪ he was a 21st century global nomad ♪ ♪ home was an airport lounge and an ipad ♪ ♪ made sure his credit score did not go bad ♪ ♪ with a free-credit-score-dot-com ♪ ♪ app that he had ♪ downloaded it in the himalayas ♪ ♪ while meditating like a true playa ♪ ♪ now when he's surfing down in chile'a ♪ ♪ he can see when his score is in danger ♪ ♪ if you're a mobile type on the go ♪ ♪ i suggest you take a tip from my bro ♪ ♪ and download the app that lets you know ♪ ♪ at free-credit-score-dot-com now let's go. ♪ vo: offer applies with enrollment in freecreditscore.com™. you know, typical alarm clock. i am so glad to get rid of it. just to be able to wake up in the morning on your own. that's a big accomplishment to me. i don't know how much money i need. but i know that whatever i have that's what i'm going to live within. ♪ ♪ who have used androgel 1%, there's big news. presenting androgel 1.62%. both are used to treat men with low testosterone. androgel 1.62% is from the makers of the number one prescribed testosterone replacement therapy. it raises your testosterone levels, and... is concentrated, so you could use less gel. and with androgel 1.62%, you can save on your monthly prescription.

>> good afternoon. i'm the superintendent of chardon local schools. at this time i'd like to thank our law enforcement, first and foremost, for the quick response. as you may have been aware from a conversation this morning, we've had a number of disaster drills in the past. thank god we've put those into place because our teaching staff did an excellent job in a very formidable, traumatic experience this morning. our prayers go out to the five victims and their families. first and foremost. again, we shift our motive to looking at them. we feel so disheartened. this will take a moment for me to get back together a moment here. i certainly hope their family know that they are in our thoughts and our prayers. we will be having a candlelight vigil service at st. mary church at 7:00 tomorrow night. we have grief counselors in place at beginning at 3:00 to 7:00 for anybody, teachers, students, community members who have been impacted by this tragedy. once again, our students are safe. the remainder of our students are safe home with their parents, 100% across the board to the district has been reported to me. once again, it's a horrible tragedy. i just want to thank again once again our law enforcement and especially want to thank our teaching staff well prepared to respond to a tragedy of this nature. thank you. >> i want to give out the phone number again for all of the media. they definitely want to call 440-279-2009. that would be the number where you leave a name, phone number, and an e-mail address. as our press releases are brought up, the next get-together for an update will be at 4:00, same place. thank you. >> one gunman or more than one? >> one. >> reporting sad news here. an update about this ohio school shooting. we heard from the police chief. and one student has died and four are injured in the school shooting that took place earlier this morning. we saw the superintendent of school as well talking about how he thought that teachers and students handled themselves very well in this tragic situation that occurred earlier this morning, that there would be a vigil that will take place later for this community but obviously some very disappointing and sad news for that community. the fact that one of those students has now passed away. the police chief also giving us an update saying that there is it one suspect who is in custody four this shooting and that he is in juvenile detention. there had been some reports before, some speculation that the suspect will get the idea that this is a young person being held in juvenile detention at this time. that's all we know about the shooter. somebody did ask if it was more than one shooter. we didn't get a response from the police chief or the superintendent when they walked away. so there are still some questions as to how this came about but i do want to bring in somebody who knows a lot about what is taking place there and has been looking into this all morning m mike brooks is a law enforcement analyst for our sister network hln and also law enforcement "in session" mike brooks, we found on the the sad news that you have this child who has now died. give us a sense of what you know about what happened inside that school? >> the law enforcement is saying it's one gunman that came into the school, apparently with a handgun and opened fire. they are not saying what the motive for this shooter coming into school was. this particular high school does not have any kind of metal detectors as some high schools do. but we don't know any kind of motive. there was apparently a teacher who chased the gunman out of the school. and, you know, he could have saved many lives but the gunman was caught a short distance away. police and canine officers tracked him down and that's where he was arrested. but our affiliate wews, suzanne, is reporting that fbi and local law enforcement are at the house of the suspecteded shooter and they are treating the house as a crime scene. this is something that i would expect them to do early on in an investigation like this, go back, look at computers and cell phones, anything else, any writings that this is going to happen. this is all part of their investigation. >> mike, i understand that one student told a local affiliate that this gunman may have actually posted threatening messages on twitter or on facebook. what do we know about his use of social media and whether or not there were kids or people who picked up on this ahead of time? >> the one person who spoke to our affiliate wws said that, you know, he talked about bringing a gun to school but everybody kind of blew it off as a joke but it's -- when you have an incident like this or they don't p mean anything about it, it has to be looked into. if you're out there and you're a parent of a child, tell your kid, if you see something, posting something like that, say something to somebody. remember the guy at times square, he was trying to blow up times square, if you see something, say something. that is the key here, suzanne, because could this have been prevented? maybe, maybe not. but, still, if this guy posted something on twitter, then somebody saw it and didn't say something, well, you have to nowadays, suzanne. you just have to. >> absolutely. do you know anything more about this teacher who some consider a hero who actually ended up chasing this student, the gunman out of the school? >> no, they are not giving the teacher's name. i'm sure a little later on we'll find out who this teacher was and what his actions were. i'm sure right now he's with law enforcement giving them a statement as to what he saw, what he heard, any sackses he took, chasing this gunman out of the high school. i think he probably saved quite a few lives. >> mike brooks, thank you very much. the ohio school shooting, a lot of details still that are unanswered and of course the sad news now that one of those students passed away. we'll have much more after this very quick break. i heard they found energy here. it's good. we need the jobs.

>> not at all. i was in a classroom that was probably the farthest away from where it happened. i thought it was a drill. and then we got an announcement that it was a serious deal. we hunkered down and locked the door like we had practiced over and over. and then we got a knock on the door that we were being evacuated. a freak accident. >> have you drilled these kinds of things before? >> yes, countless times. >> so there wasn't any panic or anything? >> no, not at all. >> reporter: so what's the drill when you have a lockdown? >> shut the door, lock the door, put a black piece of paper over the window so they can't look in or out and we both got on either side of the wall so if they could see in, they couldn't see us. and we shut off the light. >> reporter: do you know personally anyone that was hurt?

because the president's doing nothing. >> yeah, but the president says, there's not much he can do about it. take a listen. >> you know there are no quick fixes to this problem and you know we can't just drill our way to lower gas prices. if we're going to take control of our energy future and avoid these gas spikes down the line, then we need a sustained all of the above strategy that envelopes every source of american energy. oil, gas, wind, solar, nuclear, biofuels, and more. >> so we talked to voters about whether or not they believe politicians are offering real solutions or if it's just a lot of hot air. >> all right. away we go. welcome to my office. >> beautiful. >> you've got the best view in town. >> the view, phoenix, arizona. small business owner, kevin flanagan. >> how long have you been doing this?

>> it takes any profit away. most companies are operating at break even. >> so that's the view from 1,000 feet above. but what about on the ground? we decided to come here to the desert's edge rv camp where folks travel across the country in their trailers and rvs. these are the people who are really impacted by the rising price of gas. this is home for now, yes?

a liberal college professor. do you think this is working for his base? >> well, if you look at the fact that he's in a statistical dead heat for romney in his home state, when it comes to the polls, this is classic, classic rick santorum and the kind of voters that he is going for. mostly blue collar voters, those who don't have an education and socially conservative and don't like mitt romney for various reasons. interestingly, our colleagues behind me pointed out that this is something that rick santorum pointed out before, something called barack obama a snob. but the fact of the matter is, it's very important when it comes to context when talking about it in michigan and paying attention to every word he says. >> yeah, sure. i guess they said that back in 2008, right? that he was an elitist in some way. we heard from romney as well. he appeared at the daytona 500 as well. what did he say? >> well, he did make a very, very specific pitch to go and try to appeal to those so-called nascar voters but it may have backfired. i tell you, democrats are having a field day with some of what mitt romney said, is he a nascar fan and his response was effectively, i don't know much about the sport but i know some of the owners. that is not something that exactly appears to the nascar voters and workers, the people who are out there at the nascar events every day, i don't know that they have a lot of relationship with people who own the cars and so forth. >> right. probably not the best length there to make. and dana, i understand that the candidates also took on president obama for apologizing for the koran burnings that happened in afghanistan. this is is what romney said first. >> with regards to the apology, i think for a lot of people the statistics in their throat to the idea that we're there having lost thousands of individuals to casualty and death. we've made an enormous contribution to help the people achieve freedom and for us to be apologizing at a time like this which is very difficult to the american people. >> so, dana, what do we make of this? and the fact that you've got both of these candidates going after obama? >> that's right. newt gingrich was the first one to do this. rick santorum you displayed and now mitt romney you displayed what he said. it's also to try to get their republican voters in the primary for tomorrow. it enrages people who are kind of america first voters than the president of the united states apologizing for something like this. you know this because you and i covered the bush white house together during abu ghraib. they clearly think it was wrong and ignited very real anti-american sentiment in the region. >> absolutely. and dana, finally, i imagine they are looking at women voters, female voters as a really critical group there. when you have the race so close, neck-and-neck. >> absolutely. those voters in every race are important but particularly when you're looking at some of these areas. i notice you picked the sunny state, not michigan. well done. but, look, these voters -- these female voters are very important when newt gingrich was kind of higher in the polls and the romney campaign and democrats to some extent are really, really trying to paint rick santorum as anti-woman because of the things that he's talked about serving in the military and contraception and so on. and what he has done, rick santorum, has pushed back and said, that's not true. it's my personal belief. look at my wife. karen santorum, who he says is a strong woman and female voter, no question, is going to be big here in the two contests as they have been in the past several contests. >> yeah. dana, i spoke to several female voters. they are undecided. they still don't know. tomorrow's the big day. they we will see which side they actually fall on. we picked sunny arizona. >> yeah. very smart. dana, thank you so much. we're following arizona here, michigan primary. you're going to have a special edition of john king usa and then complete live coverage of the results starting at 7:00 eastern. wolf blitzer and the rest of the cnn political team. medicare. it doesn't cover everything. and what it doesn't cover can cost you some money. that's why you should consider an aarp... medicare supplement insurance plan... insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company. all medicare supplement insurance plans can help pay... some of what medicare doesn't, so you could save... thousands of dollars in out-of-pocket expenses. call now for this free information kit and medicare guide. if you're turning 65 or you're already on medicare... you should know about this card -- it's the only one of its kind endorsed by aarp; see if it's right for you. all medicare supplement plans let you keep your own doctor, or hospital that accepts medicare. there are no networks and no referrals needed. help protect yourself from some of what medicare doesn't pay... and save up to thousands of dollars in potential... out-of-pocket expenses with an aarp... medicare supplement insurance plan... insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company. call this toll-free number on your screen now... for this free information kit, including this... medicare guide and customized rate quote. gop presidential race, coming to arizona, that's right here tomorrow. that's why we are here. i want to bring in an expert on the local scene. bruce is with us, a political scientist from arizona state university. thank you for being here. it's beautiful here. windy. >> it is. with the political rhetoric the way it is, i hate to use the term apologize but it's only going to be 72 degrees here in arizona. >> you don't have to apologize for that. >> you were saying you were one of those professors that santorum was talking about. >> we've been talking to some of the voters and what struck us is that people seem to be kind of apathetic here. you talk about the candidates and they don't have a strong sense of who they want to vote for. a lot of people are still undecided and there's like this apathy factor here. does that help or hurt tomorrow when you look at romney or santorum or these other candidates? >> well, it's one reason that this race in arizona is as close as it is. with romney's support here, the race shouldn't be as close as it is. but i think what we are seeing with romney here, and across the country with the republicans, is that there is -- first, there's not a lot of interest in the candidates because the right wing still has not connected with romney. they don't like romney. they didn't like mccain here in arizona four years ago. and so the right wing of the republican party is still looking for someone that they can identify with. romney's working with very hard to make that connection. he should win arizona but it really gets back to your point. it depends on the turnout. the lower the turnout, the greater is the probability that there could be an upset. i don't expect that. i expect romney to win but it's not impossible santorum could win if the turnout is very low. >> some of the things that affect them, that make it very emotional, are not necessarily at the top of the list when it comes to issues and politics in the election. because we're talking about gas prices and there's really little these candidates can do about gas prices but that's what people are talking about here and they are very frustrated because they say they don't see any of these republicans as being a viable option right now. >> well, and that's the controversy over the social issue focus of many of these candidates. they would have to move so far to the right that they really are talking to a very small group of republican voters. and so the problem is that once they get the nomination, whoever gets the nomination, they are going to be pretty far out of the mainstream of american politics. it still gets back, in my opinion, to the economy. things are getting better. obama's gone way up in the polls. but the great threat to obama is $5, $6 gas in september. >> that's what a lot of people are saying here. >> as you say, suzanne, people think politics is rational. it isn't. it's emotional. and not being able to fill your gas tank, you're going to take that out on some one. >> or not fill your hot air balloon. >> there you go. >> thank you so much. really nice to see you. politicians sometimes say funny things, especially when they are under pressure. we're going to separate the fact from fiction up next. every time a local business opens its doors or creates another laptop bag or hires another employee, it's not just good for business, it's good for the entire community. at bank of america, we know the impact that local businesses have on communities. that's why we extended $6.4 billion in new credit to small businesses across the country last year. because the more we help them, the more we help make opportunity possible. oh there's tons. french presses, espresso tampers, filters. it can get really complicated. not nearly as complicated as shipping it though. i mean shipping is a hassle. not with priority mail flat rate boxes from the postal service. if it fits it ships, anywhere in the country for a low flat rate. that is easy. best news i've heard all day! i'm soooo amped! i mean not amped. excited. well, sort of amped. really kind of in between. have you ever thought about decaf? do you think that would help? yeah. priority mail flat rate shipping starts at just $5.15, only from the postal service. a simpler way to ship. [ roger ] tell me you have good insurance. yup, i've got... [ kyle with voice of dennis ] ...allstate. really? i was afraid you'd have some cut-rate policy. [ kyle ] nope, i've got... [ kyle with voice of dennis ] ...the allstate value plan. it's their most affordable car insurance -- and you still get an allstate agent. i too have...[ roger with voice of dennis ]...allstate. [ roger ] same agent and everything. [ kyle ] it's like we're connected. no we're not. yeah, we are. no...we're not. ♪ the allstate value plan. dollar for dollar, nobody protects you like allstate. we want to separate political fact from campaign fiction. we will bring in bill adair. bill, great to see you. mitt romney says during the last debate in arizona, romney said this president should have put in place creimina crippling san. >> the reality is that obama has not been able to do everything that he wanted or that the republicans would have wanted, which is to get the united nations to bank -- to back sanctions against the central bank but then obama has done a lot beyond that. what he can do in conjunction with congress. so mostly false on that one. >> all right. now, this is from rick santorum. he was criticizing the france to meet with nichololas sarkozy. true or false? >> we give that a pants on fire. we all remember that france was not at the u.s. when it came to going to war with iraq, that it had pushed for multilateral efforts which of course resulted in the famous freedom fries. they renamed french fries. the reality has been that france has backed international objectives like afghanistan, libya, the war against terrorism, and so it's just ridiculously false to say that france has not been with us. pants on fire for that one. >> pants on fire. that's the worse it could possibly get. bill adair, thank you for keeping them honest. appreciate it. so world war ii veteran is carjacked, injured, and then no one helps him as he crawls by. today's "talk back," what would you do? goodnight, stuffy. goodnight, outdated. goodnight old luxury and all of your wares. goodnight bygones everywhere.

[ male announcer ] the audi a8, chosen by car & driver as the best luxury sedan in a recent comparison test. following a breaking news story out of chardon high school out of chardon, ohio. that's where four students were injured and one killed when a gunman, an alleged student, opened fire at the cafeteria of chardon high school. i want to go to a student at this high school. he's a freshman. he's on the phone and joins us now. and if you can tell us, i understand that you passed by the cafeteria where this shooting took place. can you tell us what you heard or what you saw? >> yeah. i was walking outside of the cafeteria after morning announcements getting ready to go to one of my classes and i heard a shot. it sounded like a firecracker or something. so i paused and everything went in slow motion from there. i guess i was in shock, i could say. i heard about three or four more shots and i ran to the door and out to the elementary school adjacent to the building. >> and when you heard those shots fired, did you hear anyone scream? did you hear anyone go down? did you realize what was happening? >> i didn't -- i don't think i heard any screams because i was in such -- i was in slow motion. i just heard the shots and i was out. i didn't want anything to do with that. i heard the shots and then ran out. but i know one of my friends who saw the shooter and just ran along with me. >> were you by yourself when you passed the cafeteria? can you set the scene for us? >> yeah. it was my health class. i think there's about 23 of us. and when we ran outside of the door to the parking lot, i think there was about half of us there and a couple other kids that weren't from our class. >> and, josh, i understand that you know or perhaps are familiar with the story about that teacher who actually chased this gunman away. what can you tell us about that? >> i know the teacher. i know he's a football coach and a study hall teacher. from my understanding he's pretty cool and that's all i heard. >> do you know his name, the football coach? >> yeah, frank hall. >> frank hall? >> yeah. >> and what are students saying about what mr. hall did today? >> i think it was heroic. i mean, he risked his life to get a guy out of the school to save other students. >> josh, where are you now? go ahead. i'm sorry. >> it was a risky move but i think it paid off. >> and you are in a safe place now. are you with other students? have you had a chance to talk to other students about what you've experienced today? >> yeah. when we were in the parking lot, i think we were all -- we were all talking about it, trying to puzzle it together and right now i am with my mom and dad and other friends at their house just recovering. >> josh, did you know any of the students who were shot or even that student who died earlier today? >> yeah, he recognized him but i wasn't friends with them. >> josh, we are so happy that you are safe, that you are okay, that you're with your mom. we want you to take good care of yourselves and your friends as well. okay? >> all right. thank you. you too. >> okay. thank you, josh. we're going to have more about this breaking news story, this shooting that took place at a high school in ohio.
