this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by toyota. let's go places. welcome to "cbs this morning." the republican deadlock over the next speaker of the house could be about to break. house ways and means committee chairman paul ryan now says he is willing to do the job his way. senior gop leaders have urged the former vice presidential candidate to run. >> now his decision comes nearly a month after sperg joaker john boehner said he is resigning. ryan on sunday's "face the nation" said conditions have to be met before he runs. nancy cordes is on capitol hill with his list of demands. gae >> reporter: first and foremost, ryan says the house must -- or he won't run. turns the line on hardline conservatives who were hoping to exchange distractions for the speaker' support. >> what i told the members is if you can agree to these questions and i can truly be a unifying figure, then i will gladly serve. >> reporter: ryan laid out his requests first for house republicans and then for the press starting for a call for the gop to start focusing on solutions. >> we need to move from an opposition party to being a proposition party. >> reporter: then he said the house rule book must be changed. >> it needs to include fixes to ensure we do not experience constant leadership challenges and krcrises. i cannot and will not give up my family time. i may not be on the road as often as previous speakers but he pledge to make up for it with more time communicating our pledges. >> after begging the father of three to take the job. >> there was overwhelming applause. i didn't see anyone booing. >> reporter: one candidate in the speaker's race promptly dropped out. >> i'm out and in with paul. >> reporter: ryan's unusual approach is a reflection of his strong leverage as a conservative who has cut deals with democrats he is seen as one the only people who can unite his fractured party after hardliners forced to force out john boehner and doom his replacement kevin mccarthy. >> my greatest worry is the consequence of not stepping up. on sunday having my own kids ask me when the stakes were so high, why didn't you do all you could do? why didn't you stand and fight for my future when you had a chance to do so? >> reporter: ryan says if the entire party doesn't get behind him by friday he will happily stay in the job he has. it puts the hardliners in a situation where they will get blamed if he backs out. ironically, that is exactly what they say they have been wanting from the next speaker, a hardball approach. >> thank you, nancy. this morning, vice president joe biden appears to be distancing himself from presidential candidate hillary clinton by highlighting his closeness to president obama. but biden also faces very tough questions after giving a new account of his role in the decision to kill osama bin laden. major garrett is at the white house in a few hours, joe biden will attend the president's daily briefing. something tells us, major, this will come up. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. the joe biden presidential watch is a full-blown distraction for this white house which finds itself in a position to referee a public debate who is more important to the president? a vice president or a former secretary of state. the joe biden presidential tease was on dismay. >> i have now traveled on a million miles as vice president. >> reporter: at a dinner honoring walter mondale, a democratic vice president who lost the run for president shi. the optics appear lost on biden generating a debate how important he was to the president. one example? travel overseas. >> john kerry is a great secretary of state. hillary clinton was a great secretary of state. but there are times when only the vice president, if it's known of his relationship with the president, can speak for the united states when the president can't be there. >> reporter: biden attempt to diminish kerry and clinton surprised some in the white house as did his revisionist history on privately advocating that president obama boapprove capture or kill osama bin laden. >> i told him my opinion but to follow his own instincts. mr. president, my suggestion is don't go. we have to do two more things-to-to see if he is there. he walked out and said i'll give you my decision. >> reporter: it appears that hillary clinton hillary clinton appeared indecisive though portrayed herself fully on board in "hard choices." and than this recent appearance in south carolina. >> i was the one who recommended to the president that he go ahead and his advisers were split. >> reporter: the white house refused to play fact checker. >> this is not the first time that a significant political event has prompted different recollections of people who participated in it. >> reporter: at that same briefing, earnest described candidate as a candidate but backtracked and said those who mir biden's service but are becoming tongue-tied' a bit fatigued over the vice president's decision making process. >> john heilemann of bloomberg politics is joining us. >> tongue-tied and just feat of fatigue, that describes me. on the subject of the new york mets which i could talk pretty much all day long. >> we will get to that later. >> okay, good. >> biden. does this controversy play into the decision making process or could it. >> west look. no doubt that joe biden and hillary clinton have spent now the last week basically, shadow boxing from the moment when hillary clinton entered the debate and starting to talk about president obama, how close she was to him and yesterday she rolled out 50 african-american endorsements and a lot of them in south carolina and basically saying you stay out of this race and biden says if i want in this race i'll be in the race. i think the argument is making now is deeply personal and it's not about her or about the debate or anything or the benghazi committee tomorrow. it's gut-check time. >> i'm wondering if he is looking for a reason to go or not to go. >> i think he is looking for reasons to go and not to go. people told me the last few days he changes his mind on a daily basis about what he wants to do. i have given up the prediction game when it comes to joe biden. i think if he is in in we will see him at iowa this weekend with the rest of the democratic candidates at a dinner. >> he says one thing publicly and when he is speaking to the president, he says something else privately? could they both be true? >> i know -- on the basis of the reporting that i've done, contemporaneously with this but a couple of years ago people around biden said he would, often in meetings, adopt stances that were not his stance in order to try to tease out disagreements in the room and in order to try to serve as the -- doing a service to the president so that he didn't seem as though -- he was not clear about what he would do. he would go off privately later and express his view. what none of us know is what he said to barack obama in private after that meeting. that is a matter that will never be known except by those two guys. >> any indication that paul ryan won't get the entire backing of the party by friday? >> paul ryan is playing this so smart, the idea of best negotiation you ever get into the one you are willing to walk away. he does not want this job which gives hem a lot of power. i'm looking at the drudge report. there are is somication that the people on the right don't want him. >> cbs will host a democratic presidential debate on november 14th, 9:00 p.m., 8:00 central on cbs. embattled syrian president assad made a brief visit in russia and met with president putin. mark phillips is in london with more. >> reporter: good morning. well, it was bashar al assad's 23irs known trip out of syria since the war broke out four years ago and kept secret and not announced until it was over and a sign of who is running the show on the government's side of the syrian conflict. this was more than a courtesy call. it was a thanks for everything and i mean everything call. with vladimir putin's jets effectively becoming assad's air force the beleaguered syrian leader smiled like he hasn't smiled in years. the russian air campaign's announced intent is to attack isis. but the attacks have largely been outside isis-controlled territories and against other anti-assad forces. some of them supported by the u.s. and the west. the attacks have served to shore up the crumbling syrian regime. they held the syrians for standing up to the military almost on their own. they never have been on their own, assad has been supported by the iranians an allies from lebanon and the introduction of russian jet bombers with dubious intent may prolong the war, rather than bring it closer to an end. of course, it brings russian planes into air space the u.s. has been using in its anti-isis campaign. a new u.s./russian memorandum september secret on the demand of the russians have been agreed to certain protocols to keep the russian and u.s. planes apart but washington does not constitute u.s. cooperation or support for russian's military activities in syria. >> our reporters reached out to the white house to see if the united states had any intelligence about assad's trip to moscow but officials declined to comment on whether it was a surprise or whether its strategic importance might be. the vatican is denying a report that pope francis has a small brain tumor. a story today in a italian newspaper said the pope

city the last 11 months. >> our condolences to his family. police say a black man shot and killed by an officer was hit. the gun was found at the scene of sunday's shooting and say the gun was purchased legally by the well-known music circumstances. >> reporter: good morning. police here say not only did jones own that handgun but records show he bought it three days before he was killed. what the same police have not said is how many times the officer fired at jones or whether jones fired at the officer at all. palm beach gardens police officer on duty in plain clothes and unmarked police car told investigators he was confronted by an armed corey jones. >> the handgun was found on the ground outside the vehicle. mr. jones purchased the handgun three days before the officer involved shooting. >> reporter: jones played drums at the bible church of god in boynton beach which banks said his grandson had no criminal history. >> he just going to -- he was a lovely grand child. the thing that happened to him, i can't explain it or cannot understand. >> reporter: the officer had a clean record after six months at the palm beach gardens police department. he also served on the atlanta's florida beach from 2008 to 2015. in 2013 he received a written reprimand for repeatedly mishandling evidence and paper work and was called derelict in his duty for careless handling of the documented cases. jones a well-known musician in the boynton area was driving home from a job early sunday when his car broke down on a i-95 exit ramp. he called huntsburger who went to the scene and he called roadside assistance for jones and went home. >> he said thank you for helping me out. >> reporter: maurice played with him in the regga, band. >> he taught me about understanding and patience and he was a teacher of those virtues. >> reporter: okay, so the debate here again now is over a body camera. the officer involved was not wearing one. the debate is whether he should and the unmarked police car that he was driving also had no dashboard camera. >> very confusing story. a major shift this morning in screening for breast cancer. for the first time in more than a decade the american cancer society is recommending that most people wait untwomen wait an annual mammogram a. >> good morning. >> good morning. >> reporter: so glad you're here. >> i think. >> reporter: i'm 41 and not had a mammogram. should i still get one? >> absolutely you should. the guidelines are very clear that we should start screening mammograms at age 40 because there is an absolutely clear-cut reduced risk of dying from breast cancer beginning at that age and those recommendations should not change. >> reporter: what is the american cancer society doing? >> it's a fair amount of speaking out of both sides of the mouth. on the one hand, they want to reduce what they call harms related biopsies, which are unnecessary biopsies, fearing anxiety. on the other hand, they say that they stick with their mission to save lives and is there only one way to do that and that is to continue with yearly mammograms. >> i read every line of this. they also recommend against manual exams by your doctor. >> exactly. >> which i've always had in every single one of my visits. >> agreed. my question is how -- if they are saying going to mammograms every two years and not examining yourself, how are the cancers going to be found? we will find them at the size of golf balls which is a huge step back from where we have have been. >> why is screening less a good thing? >> it's not a good thing, gayle. it's done with two goals. number one, cutting costs. i think they should be focusing their efforts elsewhere. mammograms are a test to clearly show the reduce of dying from breast cancer. this is not one place we should be cutting back. >> to be clear, insurance does cover all mammograms every cost starting at age 40? >> it does but, of course, these guidelines and shifts in positions could influence that and that is concerning. >> thank you. >> thank you, doctor. three accused high school hackers could face years in prison. ahead h announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored
