>> joe biden. >> joe biden. >> why? >> i just do. >> she said this is joe biden and i said who is that? and had when he said no, really, it's joe biden. and i said i'm so sorry. i'm so sorry. i said that to you. >> he's shaking hands making kids happy. ivory's family said she hasn't called biden in awhile. maybe he'll give her a ring in 2016. >> i like how the mom speaks to the veep. >> lay down the language. >>> this is my favorite story. show stopping moment from a recent garth brooks concert. during a show in minneapolis a fan battling breast cancer held up a sign saying chemo this morning, garth tonight. enjoying the dance. he paused the show, kept the sign, and gave her his guitar in retur return. >> last night was just a boost that i really needed. >> that's so nice to see. garth's mother and sister, unfortunately both died of breast cancer. it hits home for him. it's nice to see stories like this. >> it's fantastic. welcome back. we hope you feel better. >> i feel better. i have the harvey fire seen going but wor

that was vice president joe biden there. the president is overseas so the vice president instead laying the wreath at the tomb of the unknowns. some 20 million -- over 20 million vets in our nation deserve our honor and praise and commemoration today. >> and the vice president will be speaking at n a little bit at this event. we'll take that live when it happens. you know there's a reason they lay the wreath at the 11th hour on the 11th day of if 11th month that marks the end of world war i in 1918. veterans day used to be armistice day in the united states. >> still is in britain. >> remembrance day in other places. >> in canada, that's right. >> so that's why this happened just now and, again, with the president traveling with will hear from the vice president in just a short while. what a beautiful, moving ceremony. >> couldn't be a more beautiful day in november to think there's blue skies and still leaves on the trees. >> if you see a veteran, if you know a veteran, thank them. more than 20 million strong. >> we'll be r

what you see there is -- joe biden in his most joe biden form in probably a positive way, i think this is someone who has been a long time doing this. number two, is a friendly likeable guy who has built lots of relationships. the problem for joe biden as it relates to moving up the chain of command is that sort of stuff which i think does president obama a service, particularly in regards to a situation like this. all of the relationships that joe biden has, it doesn't work as well when you move up a level and run for president. his hail fellow well met shtick is not always as well received if you think of him in a presidential light. >> i would argue this is a key constituency and joe biden knows how to work and massage these supporters likeo one else. >> the one thing i would say is you may not be wrong. i think you look at the broad expanse of the race and it's very, very hard to imagine anyone beating out hillary clinton, even joseph robin biden. >> you even know his little name. you know it all. thank you very much. it was 25 years ago, a quarter of a century ago that one of the

i think the same thing goes for joe biden. he was in florida yesterday with charlie crist because what they are trying to do, they are done persuading people. early voting in florida. i was with him at a rally. they were saying to people at that rally, largely african-american voters, okay, now you've got to get to the polls to early vote and that's where someone like joe biden can be very influential and i think if democrats lose the senate, there's going to be a lot of questions being asked about whether the president should have been used more to motivate the base, to get his base out to vote. >> that will be a good question and we'll have more of your interview with the vice president in "the situation room" later on today. gloria, thanks very much. >> sure. >>> coming up, republicans need just six seats to take over the senate. we're taking a look at some of the closest races and you're going to find out which ones could swing the balance of power. >>> and the president is back at the white house today. why is he there wh

wait, though, says vice president joe biden. he tells cnn "don't bet on it." >> first of all, i don't agree with the odds makers. i predict we're going to keep the senate. >> you do? >> i've been into 67 races all told and i don't get the feeling that the odds makers have it. >> these last couple of day there is's going to be a mad dash to the finish line. it might not end tomorrow, though. a runoff in georgia could drag this election cycle into january. so we've got you covered all day at this hour. our anna cabrera is covering the race in colorado, pamela brown is in iowa. and jim acosta is in washington. >> 16 sophomore at the white house. pamela, we'll start with u. this brand new quinnipiac poll. everyone looks at iowa. harry reid said it over the weekend. this senate race could hang on iowa. it might be the single-most important race in the country and this new poll out just a little while ago shows a dead heat, closer in some cases than ones over the weekend. how does it feel out there today? >> it feels like this senate

joe biden will speak at the ceremony in the memorial amp theater. the vice president is standing in for president obama who is attending a global summit in china. the ceremonies at arlington are one of the diretributes nationw. as we wait the vice president's remarks. let me bring in msnbc military analyst and med tal of honor recipient for his rehoeic actions during the vietnam war. helping families of service-members. thank you both for joining us. we appreciate it. colonel, we have a pleasure of speaking with you. i want to start with linda here. because of the work that she's doing to help these families. as we remember the veterans. i was on the "today" show. the plaza filled men and women in uniform and those who have worn the uniforms before. there were just as many proud spouses and children. your organization is done a lot to support those people. >> yes, our military kids proudly supporting the children of our deployed and wounded warriors. sometimes their needs are overlooked and i think it's very important for our military men and women

> joe biden? >> joe biden. >> why? >> i just do. >> the little girl said that she saw biden on television and asked her parents who it was and for several months had a serious of pretend phone conversations with the vice president. we asked the vice president about avery, and out of the blue she got a phone call from biden himself. >> he said, this is joe biden, and i said who the is this? when he said no, really, it's joe biden. i said, i am so sorry. i'm so sorry i said that to you. >> the vice president said he saw the note and thought he would call. he and avery's grandmother spoke for five minutes about family. biden told stories about his grandchildren. expect another phone call to that iowa family a year from now before the iowa caucuses. that's today's power politics. >>> let's check on other news around america with morgan rat ford. what do you have? >> a lot going on across the country. in los angeles sheriff's deputies located 15 hikers reported missing last night. they were part of a c

vice president joe biden who's on a visit to istanbul and the turkish prime minister. both of those men have a great deal to discuss about the tensions in the region, particularly on the issue of confronting isil. the u.s. relying heavily on turkey as an ally in its battle against isil in that region. i'm sure we'll have more on those talks later in the coming hours. >>> now in the u.s., republican politicians are lashing out at president barack obama and his new immigration plan which he'll be signing into law later on friday. obama's proposal will allow 5 million undocumented immigrants to stay in the country and make them eligible for work permits. but john. >> the action by the president yesterday will only encourage more people to come here illegally and putting their lives at risk. we saw the humanitarian crisis of our border last summer, how horrific it was. this summer it could be worse. this action also punishes those who have obeyed the law and waited their turn. with this action, the president has chosen to deliberately sabotage any chance of enacting bipart

joe biden is on a 3-day visit. turkey has been criticized to do enough to stop of foreign fighters. bernard smith is live in istanbul. what is it that they are hoping to achieve here? >> first, there may be a bit of making up. it's only last month that joe biden said that president recep tayyip erdogan had made mistakes allowing others to across the boarder in syria, and helped the rise of i.s.i.l. recep tayyip erdogan was infuriated by the remarks. they are supposed to be good friends. there'll be talking in that regard. but biden is the latest in a list of u.s. officials to come to turkey to try to persuade the government to take an active role in the fight against i.s.i.l. the u.s. would like to be able to use an air base to launch sortees to attack i.s.i.l. positions. at the moment the fighter jets have to fly from the gulf, the mediterranean. flying many hours, eating up fuel, meaning they can fly around the tarts for a short period of time. turkey has been reluctant. >> what is turkey's position. on the one hand it wants to get rid of the president bashar al-assad, but it is h

keep it here for the latest on vice president joe biden's trip to turkey. have a great rest of your day. >> al-shabab claims responsibility for the bus attack in kenya. at least 28 people are killed. >> hello, you're watching al jazeera live from doha. >>> opposition calls for a boycott. >>> and the birth play of the arab spring gets ready to mark a major milestone. >> i'm in london where we're at a world championship event. can you guess what it is?

so in the event of a 50-50 tie, joe biden, he spent 36 years in the senate, he snows the -- knows the place very well. he had a great melodramatic career. big speeches. always the center of attention. it be might be a fitting way for him to put the cap on his career. as vice president he was back there in the spotlight, he would be the first line of defense for the president's legacy in many ways. the republicans might come many and do stuff like defund obamacare, pass the kind of conservative budgets that we've seen in the house. vice president joe biden would be right in pole position and ride the spotlight which he loves. >> let's talk about campaigning, a sitting president is usually very exciting to have a sitting president stumping for them, but instead there has been this remarkable strategy where the president has only gone primarily in places where democrats look pretty favorable in their races and then you have in the state of georgia where you've got the name sake of carter, jason carter who is running for office and his grand dad is campaigning for him but in a very quiet

bill daily, who was then the chief of staff has known joe biden for a couple of decades, they're very close, bill daily was the leader in saying we owe it to the president to look at this. they knew there would be a downside, you replace a running mate in a situation like that, it's going to appear weak and maybe panicky, but if hilary clinton will boost us in some way in the polls we've got to look at it. we say in the book in this political team it was better to be hardheaded than soft hearted. and if it ever came out, as it did when our book came out, that biden's feelings would be hurt. people don't vote for the bottom of the ticket, and whatever popularity hilary clinton didn't boost it that much. >> just the fact that they considered it, put money on it. >> it shows you, a, how desperate they are, and, b, again, how kind of cut throat they are, take to the president the notion maybe we've got to replace your friend joe biden who you've basically already promised you're going to run with him. >> how did something like that not get out at the time? this book contain sos many thing

the reported rift between president obama and joe biden in the aftermath of secretary hagel's resignation. biden didn't like it. >> right out of your favorite christmas cartoon. >> i don't know, charlie brown. >> everyone in this pennsylvania town wanted this ugly tree out but this morning it's getting the charlie brown treatment. so nice to see. mornings are better with friends. >> you're watching "fox & friends." >> are you still sleeping in? because we're about to wake you up.

look, i don't think it's going to be the gaps that stop joe biden. i think it will be hillary clinton that stops him. he's saying what he has to now. my decision is not based on what hillary clinton does. we all know his decision is based on what hillary clinton does because frankly they both come are from the democratic establishment, eat from the same slice of pie. if he was elizabeth warren to the left of hillary clinton, he could think about challenging her. at this point, it's difficult for him if she decides to run. i think that's going to be the biggest obstacle, not the gaps which frankly i think everybody is used to. it makes him in a weird way very genuine. >> interesting. although john, he serves under an unpopular president. much of this election is very much about president obama. remember back when o neil said all politics is local. voters care about those issues not tangible ideas. that's thanks to president obama. this is a campaign ad for the georgia senate. >> the issue is trust. do you trust president obama and the washington polit

vice president joe biden made a bold prediction in kansas. now this is a really interesting race. there's an independent candidate, greg orman in a statistical dead heat with a republican indumb bent pat roberts. orman won't say which party he'll caucus with. here's what biden told a connecticut radio station today. >> you know, we have a chance of picking up an independent who will be with us in the state of kansas. >> be with us. that means caucusing with the democrats. josh earnest says the vice president is braver than i am to make a prediction. we're live in kansas. the vice president is shying away and doing things that others are not willing to do. this is a significant statement to say that greg orman will caucus with the democrats. what are you hearing? >> reporter: that's a surprise to greg orman. he's not saying which side he's going to caucus with. he's not saying he's going to align with democrats or the republicans. that's what is driving some people to come out here and vote. there is an energy behind the senatorial race. people here in 2010 swung to the tea party.

in florida, joe biden campaigned for charlie crist. former governor jeb bush stumped for rick scott. later today, bill clinton will put in his appearance making one last push for charlie crist at university of central florida rally. >>> the race for governor for maryland tightened. democrat anthony brown, the current lieutenant governor slid to within a point of republican larry hogan in the polls. the report just declared that race a toss up. michelle obama is headed for a rally in baltimore. >>> a bunch of close races for governor. a total of 14 states across the country too close to call. including ten involving incumbents. that is the greatest number of imperilled incumbents in the 30-year history. democrats hoping to make gains. they are finding themselves on the defense. >>> gop candidates are cashing more checks from wall street. 63% of contributions from bank employees went to republicans this cycle. that is $78 million. wall street which had been a big supporter of obama in the early years. now hoping for republican victories.

. >> and a safety concern that d vice president joe biden appearing with the president of ukraine. >> a warm-up on the way for the weekend. i will give you the numbers in >> d.c. councilmember marion barry is in the hospital tonight. a spokesman declined to reveal the nature of the illness, saying only that he checked into howard university hospital because he was not feeling well. is 78 suffered from a blood infection last year. he has also had a kidney transplant and survived prostate cancer. >> vice president joe biden backed out of meeting with the president of the u.k. -- of the ukraine. the secret service determined it was not a good idea after a crowd became unruly. the memorial was four people killed during past demonstrations. mr. biden visited a separate memorial earlier in the day. he is talking with leaders about recent elections. be closed next monday and tuesday in ferguson, missouri, as the cumulate waste the grand jury decision on asther to charge officer -- the cumulative awaits the grand jury decision on whether to charge officer michael brown. michael brown's father

we're better than joe biden. >> tomorrow night, 5:30. which hours to watch, what to watch for, and how you can plan your evening based around poll closings. >> all right. gentlemen, appreciate it. see you back here at 6:00. >>> some people in maine may have trouble voting tomorrow. utility officials in maine say there's no guarantee that all the polling sites will have electricity by election day. thousands of voters are expected to be in the date after a powerful weekend storm. right now more than 100,000 homes and businesses don't have power after more than a foot of snow fell on some areas. >>> don't forget to join al jazeera america tomorrow night at 5:30 for a complete roundup of election results and in-depth analysis. coverage begins at 5:30 and 6:00 and 7:00 p.m. eastern time. >>> in marysville, washington, hundreds of people showed their support for kids returning to school after a freshman opened fire on his classmates. he killed three students before killing himself. police have not revealed a motive for the shooting >>> multip

joe biden also urged russia to move -- to remove military soldiers and equipment from the east of the country. since then thousands have died in the armed uprising. steve rosenberg reports. >> this was a day for remembering the victims of ukraine's revolution at the street protests, which started here one year ago. ukraine's new best friend, america in the shape of its vice president. it joe biden accused russia of trying to change ukraine's orders by force. >> russian behavior represents a flagrant violation of that that rock principles of our international system. >> this is the battalion in eastern ukraine. today they allowed us into their training camp. a year ago many of these men were protesters. now they are soldiers. >> i don't think it is a big secret. it is going to go all the way. what began one year ago with street protesters has ended in the east which ended with one in 4000 people dead and a global confrontation between russia and the west. >> it is unclear where the rebels are in control. all the ukrainian banks closed down. little hope of getting your money. ukraine st

vice president joe biden and the president of turkey, the u.s. seems to have made little head way in its attempts to persuade the turkish government to take a more active role in the fight against isil. there is still no indication if the u.s. will be alloweded to use air bases in turkey to launch assaults on isil in iraq. that means u.s. aircraft will continue to have to fly long missions from the mediterranean and the gulf if the the u.s. continues to maintain that its priority is isil and this is where the divide remains between turkish and u.s. policy and today's visit by biden doesn't seem to have closed that gap. >>> at least eight civilians have been killed by an air strike in iraq. it was in the center of the country. these are the latest pictures of the aftermath of that strike. we have an update from baghdad. >> according to the hospital, eight casualties were brought in as a result of air strikes, four children, two adults, two of which were women and five people also injured. it has not been confirmed if these were coalition or iraqi

joe biden was break it. but he could be the most influential for a brief pooerd period of time, determining the balance of power in the senate. >> and the vice president of the senate is president of the senate. he would break that 50/50 tie. the republicans really need 51. >> the net gain of six. we say that because of the possibility. you still have georgia, kansas and some democrats say kentucky. most republicans think kentucky's moved mcconnell's way. but we'll see. >> be an exciting night tomorrow night. we'll watch every step of the way. >>> up next, while republicans are energized over a chance to recapture the senate, one top democrat is always energized. that's the vice president of the united states, joe biden. he's going to tell us why he's optimistic. >>> and north korea has a new submarine. will it soon be armed with newark-tipped missiles that can directly threaten the united states? she's still the one for you. and cialis for daily use helps you be ready anytime the moment is right. cialis is

usually with joe biden. people have the notion that he and joe biden are friends. they have done deals. i think the fact that he eats talking about being a dealmaker is a good sign he is ready to do some stuff in the short term and immediate term. >> ted cruz has been out loudly saying we should not pass legislation and work president obama need to invest in president obama. macconnell came out and said we will not shut down the government, which was like a poke in the eye to ted cruz. he said we will not default on the debt. we will see what he can get done. especially in the house and the people that like ted cruz in the file. looks to me like he wants to put his feet to the fire. not necessarily compromise but pass legislation and say let's put ills on the president's desk . >> on the cover of time magazine i predict he will not discuss his favorite character anytime soon. i also predict he will not be the job he is always wanted. he is going to be the same mitch mcconnell he has always been which may well serve the country's purposes right now because he knows

and joe biden, who knows, hillary clinton is not looking so good. tell the president to let you finish your sentence and don't let him cut you off. >> has that ever happened here? >> coming back, two sounds on two different presidents. next on the five. >>> president obama initially said that air strikes alone would be enough to fight isis in iraq. so why is he now doubling the number of troops in the country. >> what it signals is a new face. >> should we expect that more troops may be needed before this is over? >> as commander in chief, i'm never going to say never. >> president george w. bush also took a trip to the sunday morning shows appearing on cbs this weekend, he was there to promote his new book, 41, a portrait of my father and he was about the iraq war and the consequence rise of isis. >> do you ever have any regret, that maybe it was the wrong decision? >> i always thought it was the right decision. this is now al qaeda plus. >> isis, greg, was a story that basically took to the back pages, while we went through the election here. but

vice president joe biden has been in talks with turkish president on ways to defeat isil. mr. biden said that he and president erdogan also talked about how to strength the opposition in syria to help bring down bashar al-assad. >>> bahrain's state news agencies are reporting that the parliamentary elections are being extended by an hour until 1900 greenwich meantime. this is the first election since three years ago. the first shia party has boyco boycotted the vote. >>> people in tunisia are also heading to the polls. tunisians will be able to choose between two dozen candidates. we have reports the poll is important for the whole region. >> campaigning in to you nova's presidential election has been loud. they are looking forward to exercise their democratic right for the first time. >> we want someone who moves tunis forward and to serve the country. >> i hope they will get better, and all tunisians stand united. >> under thafter the president had been ousted by volt in 2011 it would have been impossible to run for the top job. now candidates are free to supporspeak to supp

i know joe biden. joe wasn't speaking through the top of his head. they know that that is an issue that the president feels very strongly about. they are not going to do anything themselves on immigration for two reasons, number one, they cannot find the kind of unity within their caucus, or their conference, to do that. and so, number two, they believe the president is so committed to this issue that he will in fact pull for a executive order to get it done and that will be the peg upon which they will hang an impeachment resolution. >> what would you advise the president to do, risk the chance of being impeached and move forward on immigration. what would your advise to the president be? >> absolutely movember f forwar. as you may recall i was the voice calling for the president to use executive order to raise the debt ceiling some years ago. and i still feel that the executive order is something that every president ought to move to do when congress won't do its work. now i just left, as i said, navy memorial to the navy veterans and i brought up

joe biden -- [laughter] joe biden literally started, you could hear him tsk, tsk, you know? obama loses his place on the teleprompter, he's so shaken by this, which could be a disaster. then there's a collect i have gasp out of the democrats in the house, they're like, oh! and it's the kind that's followed in the schoolyard by, "i'm telling," you know? right immediately afterwards, the republicans rushed to mics to apologize, and the democrats rushed to the direct mail vendors to try to raise money off this which they do much too well. and that's how it broke out. what i like was the response of democratic whip james clyburn, also from south carolina. he called wilson's behavior totally disrespectful, which it probably was many a sense, and a new low for the state's congressional delegation. representative clyburn has not studied south carolina history very closely. [laughter] those of you who know your history know what i'm going to say. in 1856, preston brooks, a congressman from south carolina, upset by the abolitionist talk from senator charles sumner, republican from ma

joe biden spoke with gloria borger. >> i don't agree with the odds make makers. i think we're going to keep the senate. >> reporter: what if that would be the case? >> i don't think that will change anything about what we're about. we know what we have to get done the last two years, and quite frankly, going into 2016, the republicans have to make a decision whether they're in control or not in control. are they going to allow things to happen and continue to be obstructionists? and i think they're going to choose to get things done. >> all right, joe biden there. let's get a live look at the races to watch. thanks for talking with us. we heard the vice president joe biden and some other democrats insist they can hold onto the senate. but the numbers don't look too good, do they? >> no, they don't. it's really shaping up to look like a bad night for democrats. at the same time, a lot of the polling out there is really not being trusted by some of the tra strategists, because as you mentioned earlier, it's hard to predict what the universe of voters is going to be

it's joe biden. he ran, and told stories about his grandchildren. expect another phone call before the iowa caucuses. that is today's power politics. >> and around the america more with morgan radford. >> i will give to my best. let's start in los angeles. where sheriff's deputies located 15 hikers reported missing. they are part of a group of 30, who went hiking. they got lost and were forced to spend the night in the mountains. some were able to send texts to neighbours, asking for help. luckily, sheriff's deputies found them and brought them to safety. a rape suspect cut off his ankle bracelet and went on a crime spree. after gregory lewis was charged. he cut off his monitoring and took off and committed crimes across the country. prosecutors are asking a judge to deny his bail. there can be a shift in policy in new york. the n.y.p.d. is considering not arresting people for possessing small amounts of pot. and will issue them tickets. that decision would represent a major shift in policing since tens of thousands of people are arrested here every

they sent michelle obama out and joe biden to help where they could. but look at what the president is doing today. four radio interferes in major metropolitan areas trying to boost turn out. this is a major problem. the democrats far lessen news was tick in term of republican voters when you compare the two groups. the president speaking oh to a radio host. so concentrating on the governor races. this could be the one bright spot for democrats as they try to move in to governor's mansions across the country. >> mike viqueira for us. thank you so much. a local npr radio station in hartford, connecticut, got a bit of a surprise caller on this election day. president obama. there were problems with the voter rolls in hartford this morning, so many people could not vote. the president urged people to go back to the polls. >> obviously for somebody who is planning to vote before they go to work and they get there, and they're unable to do it, that's frustrating, but the main thing i just want to emphasize is that we've got to make sure that those pokes hav

you guys, today is vice president joe biden's birthday. [ cheers and applause ] vice president joe biden's birthday. biden started the day with a dance party, and a big piece of cake, and then he remembered it was his birthday. [ laughter ] that's right, it's joe biden's birthday. he blew out the first 70 candles on his cake, and then shot out the last two with his finger guns. biden style. [ laughter and applause ] this is a little scary. a man was arrested outside the white house yesterday carrying a rifle, ammunition, and a knife. police believe the man was disturbed, because you'd have to be crazy to be outside right now.

. >> vice president joe biden stopped in turkey to mend fences. it wants united states to focus on defeating bashar al-assad and defeating isil. these pictures were taken in imrati. >> on friday they took in all four sides of the city. there are government forces within the city. they called in reinforcements. now the idea of the pro government troops is to push the isil fighters back on all four sides of the city. the clashes are ongoing. this is the largest offensive that we've seen isil mount on the city of ramadi. if you look at anbar as a whole, there is isil presence or occupied completely by isil. if you come from this border with syria where isil are bringing in reinforcements, it is quite feesful that they can mount an attack like this. the iraqi army are confident that they will be able to repel the attack against ramadi. the time is surprising. nobody was expecting quite the size of the attack, particularly as we're seeing a concentration of coalition airstrikes within the area. now they're saying that they will try and boost and push i
