this remains a close race and one to watch for a number of future caucuses and primaries >>> vermont in nevada are two entirely different states, new hampshire especially, but that is not a very diverse state. you saw tie versity played a big deal in these. can sanders, do you think-- diversity. increase his outreach and reach out to hispanic voters? can he get more women on board? hillary clinton won with women tonight >> i think what we're seeing around america is that the american people are not monolithic. the groups split and they do want to hear substantive issues. as a woman of color and the daughter of an immigrant, i am a bernie sanders supporter because i believe it is coming down to the american dream. democrats are having a debate about how to give more people access to the american dreams. republicans are having a debate on how to exclude people from the american dream >>> you were 22 years old when you were first elected into office. you told me you were inspired at an event where bernie sanders and president obama were both at, right >> that's right >>> the president s

the field narrowed to three with hillary clinton, and another outsider, self acknowledged socialist vermont senator bernie sanders. he wants to see university health care, free college education and higher taxes to pay for it all. he's appealing to the political left of his party in sharp contrast inside both parties are that people are fed up with politics as usual. >> we see that both parties are moving to ideological extremes. it's happening more advicably on the republican side and republicans dislike their party leadership. >> how could could the caucus turnout effect the elections today? >> when we hear about turnout, whether those numbers end up high or low, that will tell us whether a lot of outside voters, people who don't normally vote are coming out and that's probably good news for can't dates like donald trump and bernie sanders. sanders has a lot of young voters without a long history of voters, trump, because he has voters who have not been part of the republican establishment, have not been voting every year, and that would suggest high turnout that these outside candidates

while he won a house and later senate seat in vermont, some declared the democratic socialist was too far to the left. but what is sanders appeal to young people, why now? socialist is a word that carries a stigma for many older americans. conjuring images of the cold war and nuclear annihilation. , slamming sanders to motivate their voters, the republicans. >> none of our candidates is a socialist that's a good thing. >> but the berlin wall fell 20 years ago. instead of dread, for some of them socialism evokes positive images. as a sophomore at the university of south carolina megan taylor is a campus coordinator for sanders campaign. >> i like to say to america, your favorite parts of the campaign are the socialist parts. you just don't want to admit it. >> their gender their age their phone number. >> young people inspired to a political cause. for bernie sanders, an old message striking a cord with a new generation. bernie sanders has said paul that he's not quitting in south carolina but there arics intas thathere areindications that heg in the towel. he's not going to be in the

new hampshire borders vermont, it was bernies to win. what we were doing was getting out the vote and making sure that people were voting and making an informed decision and not just going along with whatever they were hearing on the media and making sure that her record was being fairly displayed. and that's what i was doing. >> you talk about hillary clinton being from the neighboring state, but hillar --you talk about bernie sanders being from the neighboring state, but hillary clinton has been here. what do you think it happened? >> i'm not sure. when i talk to people whether it's people who are not as vocal and angry on facebook or people who are a little bit holder than me and a little bit ready to think about the big picture about who is ready to be our command center chief, and whose ideas will take us to the next level and not just sit in the tank of ideas, those are clinton. >> ally, you mentioned you're 30 years old. there has been a lot of push back to young women, how they should support hillary clinton because she's a woman

he's almost like the favorite son being from neighborhood vermont. don't count out clinton. eight years ago when she was running, obama was beating her 13 points. she closed the gap to win in new hampshire, so the clinton folks say that they are going to work hard this week and will do well here. >> let's talk about the republican side of the ticket. what about ted cruz? can he resonate in new hampshire? >> michael talked about this a little bit. ted cruz appeals to the value voters, the evangelical christians, there are many more of them in iowa than in new hampshire, but he does have tea party sport here in newel. i suspect after talking to analysts that he is not going to do well in new hampshire as he did in iowa. here's an indication that he also believes that. he is not spending the whole day here. he's going to be here a while but then head to go south korea, which is the next big contest. >> bernie sanders talking in the back of that pickup truck. we are waiting for hillary clinton now. what can we expect in the week ahead? >> a lot of campaigning. today there are 20

they sight the fact that he is from vermont. but they are counting on south carolina and nevada to give the victory back to her campaign. >> yeah in new hampshire they are used to the snow. michael shure is in sport smith, new hampshire with more on some of the candidate's last-minute strategies, and polling is strong, second marco rubio certainly stuck to his talking points today, that is during saturday's debate, repeating them over and over again. let's listen. >> let's dispel with this fiction that barack obama doesn't know what he is doing. he knows what he is doing. he wants america to become more like the rest of the world. >> chris christie hit him on that. how bad did it hurt rubio. well, the latest university poll has kristen saloomey -- chris christie over the charts. and jeb bush is in second place. it is showing that the trends here john have changed a lot since saturday. >> is this a make or break for people like christie and bush, and kasick? >> reporter: john, john unquestionably, it's make or braer, especially f

he is from neighboring vermont, the long time senator from vermont. don't count out hillary clinton. the clintons are well loved here in new hampshire, especially because and eight years ago, you may remember that hillary clinton behind barack obama here when she made her first run for the presidency and she ended up pulling out an upset and beat barack obama here in new hampshire, but of course we know who went on to get the ultimate nomination. >> it was that motion speech she gave in new hampshire. >> absolutely. >> thank you very much. >>> the world health organization has declared the zika outbreak an international emergency. the agency said it's because the disease is spreading roup hidy and may be linked to an alarming spike in birth fee effect in newborns. scientists are working to develop a vaccine but that could take two years. countries like el salvador are exploring unconventional methods to stop the disease. we have the details. >> you could be looking at at least part of the answer to the zika epidemic. here they're called sam bow fish a

senator from vermont, one of the whitest states in america. so goes the thinking, the map looks good for the former secretary of state. the action this week testing that assumption has been fast and furious. the political action committee of the congressional black caucus endorsed hillary clinton, keith ellison and others endorsed bernie sanders. secretary clinton and her husband the former president, are the fast friends of black america. the daughter of eric garner who died during a confrontation with the nypd, endorsed sanders. clinton and sanders met in a debate last night in milwaukee. sanders related the issue with black america as persistent gaps. >> if you have african american poverty rates of 35%. when you have youth unemployment at 51%, when you have unbelievable rates of incarceration, which by the way, leaves the children back home without a dad or even a mother, clearly, we are looking at institutional racism. we are looking at an economy in which the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. and sadly in america today, this our e

[ cheers and applause ] >> reporter: on tuesday the voters will decide which democrat they think can actually beat a republican candidate. >>> the latest poll shows sander's support in new hampshire as almost double clintons. but looking ahead at the next democratic primaries later this month, clinton is still holding a pretty strong lead. in nevada there is a 20-point spread between the two. and among voters in south carolina, clinton is a big favorite. on the republican side, donald trump still holds a wide lead in new hampshire. he is at 29% right now, according to the c nn tracking poll. marco rubio is second.

because supertuesday there are 12 states in play, she's up ten of the 12 polls and the two she's not is vermont and massachusetts. as far as bernie sanders needs to create and keep momentum, needs to keep it, it would not be good news for hillary clinton would she to lose in south carolina. also, it would get a lot of voters who are not paying as close attention who will be bombarded with these ads and these candidates going into the march 1st ration h races to pay attention to bernie sanders. it's hard to believe, there are many, many voters particularly hispanic voters who don't know bernie sanders well. >> michael shure, as always, great stuff, we appreciate it. >> appreciate it. >> bernie sanders is working hard to win the african american vote in south carolina. fire wall for clinton could, just could have some contraction. we'll talk about that and to a clinton supporter, next. >> the democratic primary in south carolina comes on saturday, march the 27th, one week after the republican contest in that state. many democrats believe the lag time could provide a window for bernie sanders to m

bill clinton unleashed his strongest attack yet on bernie sanders, saying that the vermont's campaign has been sexist and dishonest. sanders denied the accusations. >> look, we don't want that crap. we'll do everything that we can. >> a new you mass poll out this morning finds bernie sanders with a 16-point lead over hillary clinton with just a day to go before the new hampshire primary. the margin of error in this poll is nearly 6%. libby casey is live in manchester, and libby, what do these latest poll numbers tell us? >> well, clearly the front runners have a comfortable lead here, but everything is in influx. that's the take away. if you look at the republican side of the second tear candidates we're seeing numbers all over the map. senator rubio trying, as you mentioned to not let saturday night's performance of the debate dent him. his performance played into a narrative that the governors in this race have been trying to push. chris christie, jeb bush and john kasich, the governors, against the senators. we've got marco rubio and ted cruz, and the governors have been trying to

the reason why she lost new hampshire is that bernie sanders is a senator from vermont across the border. his name recognition is high here. she has to look again at her message and how she gets that message across, particularly as the whole campaign moves south. as for the republicans well, the establishment lane is jammed up. there is still jeb bush. there is still marco rubio and john kasich as well. we're expecting chris christie as part of that group to drop out within the next few hours if not within the next 48 hours. they have to decide there has to be a candidate who will stay on trump or stay in the race and make it easier for him to take on delegates and take a bigger step towards that nomination. >> thank you. >> one of the biggest surprises we should mention is the second place scored by republican john kasich. he began his political career in 1979 before he began to work as an investment banker when he reentered politics in 2010 he was elected as governor and that position he was re-elected to in 2014. he's often touted for his bipartisan views and in 1994 he voted with the

for vermont, up to the north, and down to the south where you're voting we are looking at nice conditions with temperatures into the 40s there. as we go down towards georgia, things are not looking too bad towards the south, but rain showers coming into the north. a fairly rainy day, up to vir gen i can't, but-- virginia, but tennessee will see thunder storms. over to parts of texas, even texas, into arkansaw, those states will also be seeing rain and severe weather. so that could cause a little bit of problem in some turn outs for those particular areas. as we take a look at what's happening in parts of minnesota, it will be cooler. we look at 27 >>> thanks for that. a look at what is coming up in the next hour >>> donald trump's comments about the kkk have over shadowed hillary clinton's huge win. reaction across the political spectrum is coming up. also in the week ahead the supreme court prepares to address a landmark abortion rights case at issue. tougher regulations for womens health clinics. some creative ideas for growing food without water. the so-called blue revolution, just one

citing polls saying bernie sanders from vermont is expected to win, hillary clinton will claim a victory if she comes within shouting distance of bernie sanders. hillary clinton and her campaign are looking forward to the next state in nive wher nevada and ih carolina, just after that. >> mike viqueria has just pointed out that voters in new hampshire are known for making their decisions in the final moments. as al jazeera's erica pitzi reports, the candidates are campaigning hard to sway the undecided. >> reporter: as many as 44% of new hampshire voters are undeclared. these are people that have not yet picked a party, are likely independent and many are undecided. >> i'm still going back and north my mind. >> the candidates know it and are trying at a capitalize on it. >> as we get these last few days, there are still a large number of undecided voters. you have to ask yourself how do we make this choice? >> to answer that question for themselves, as many candidates are going to meet and greets as they can. >> this is four or five. >> this is my fifth. >> this is my eighth one. >> kend

>> he's certainly going to win in vermont on super tuesday which is his home state. he is campaigning in massachusetts and colorado, and some latino vote in colorado, a caucus state as well as oklahoma. he has to really prove that he has to play in the sowp south ad play amongst african americans, hillary clinton is leading in georgia by almost 50 points. obviously she leading in her husband's home state of arkansas. it becomes really problematic to him that he has a path to the nomination. it's very hard to win the nomination without the african american vote, amongst the democratic electorate. even if he wins five states out of the 11 that are in play on super tuesday. >> thank you for being with us. >> thanks paul for having me on. >> the texas court last thrown out a case against rick perry, a case over abuse of power, travis county district attorney rosemary lenburg to resign. threw out the case against perry and reaffirmed a lower court's decision. >>> president obama fired back today at congressional republicans who say they will not hold hearings on a nominee

and more good news to the vermont senator today. the former naacp leader has formally decided to endorse sanders for president, and he's going to make it official tomorrow. >>> heading into tomorrow's democratic debate, some of the sharpest differences between bernie sanders and hilliary clinton include their policies toward wall street. david schuster reports. >> reporter: in new hampshire this week, for bernie sanders, it has been a huge theme. >> together, we're going to create an economy that works for everybody, and not just the 1%. >> reporter: and by 1%, sanders means wall street. and the nation's most powerful banks. he says the agreed is out of control, and their political influence must be rained in. >> the story is that the business model of wall street is fraud. the story is that wall street has unlimited sums of money to spend on any way they want, including campaign contributions and speaker fees. >> reporter: three years ago, those speakers included former secretary of state, hilliary clinton. invent banker, goldman s

local and federal initiatives but they fall short of what many hard hit states like new jersey, and vermont need to save lives. last year, president obama's budget request sought $1.2 billion to expand medication assisted treatment for opioid addiction. >> the expansion of medication assisted treatment is very important. it's also important that medication alone will not help an individual transform their lives, and sustain their recoveries. >> many will need long term in-patient treatment, the kind of treatment that saved vanessa's life. >> it's like a family community lifestyle here. >> vanessa is still receiving outpatient therapy to keep her on track. she lives in state subsidized apartments with other addicts far along in their treatment. she has a job now. >> you wonder how tough it is to get into treatment centers. how did she get in? >> there was a bipartisan effort to get non-violent addicts treatment instead of jail. centers like integrity house designated half of their beds for people referred through the criminal justice system. >>> hawaii has declared a state of emergency over

wasn't necessarily that they all loved me, but i do appreciate that >>> bernie sanders home state of vermont holds its primary on tuesday, so does hillary clinton former home state arkansaw. for whom ever wants to win the vote, the hispanic votes are keen. the g.o.p. says maybe not leaning towards the democrats. a police officer killed on her fur first day on the job. later a landmark abortion rights case to be heard by the court this week. it could affect the ability of women's health condition to treat patients. >>> super tuesday states like texas and colorado include large blocks of hispanics. because they attract democrat crack, republicans are working hard. >> do you know what i really am happy about because i've been saying it for a long time, 46% with the hispanics. >> reporter: less than 8% of the nearly 80,000 republicans who voted in the caucus are hispanic. >> how many of you are first time caucus goers. >> reporter: a record 27.3 million latino voters across the country are eligible to vote in this year's presidential election >> no candidate, neither democrat nor republican, can

deliver her and especially if she loses to bernie sanders in new hampshire, he's a local, coming from vermont next door, that's very likely to happen. it's an important race in south carolina really for both parties. >> we'll see who leaves new hampshire with the big mo, momentum, that a candidate said some years back. >>> the pace of job growth slowed last month. the department of labor said 150,000 jobs were created in january, half as many as in december. but the unemployment rate fell below 5% for the first time in five years, average hourly wages rising one half of 1%. president obama took advantage of the latest unemployment numbers to tout the state of the u.s. economy and as mike viqueria reports the president used the increased wages and reduced unemployment to score some political poirchts points. >> reporter: good evening randall, it's been clear since the presidential campaign began in earnest, that the president has become annoyed, the candidates talking down economy, saying the economy is bad, he says the economy is good and has something to tout. on friday morning, when the une

and trump holds on, and wins a couple of states on super-tuesday, he is way ahead in mississippi and vermont. after that, republicans will be pushing for a two-person race -- the republican establishment wants rubio versus trump, and they may end up with cruz versus trump. >> thank you very much. >>> african americans make up half of the democratic electorate in south carolina. and polls show many of them leaning towards hillary clinton. john terrett is in south carolina tonight. >> reporter: that's right. they are pulling out all of the stops in both campaigns. for the hilary campaign that means building on the momentum of nevada. and for bernie sanders they got the message loud and clear that they are have less than a week as they say, to get er done. hillary clinton is preparing to come to south carolina. at her campaign office here, volunteers are working the phones and encouraging supporters to get out and vote. in nevada her supporters say the message was clear. >> hilary has all of the momentum going forward, and texas is going to bring it home. >> reporter: and in south carolina that
