this is what people are tweetig all about bernie sanders and they're such rabid bernie sanders fans because he's got this passion to take it to the billionaires. >> yeah, i just -- you know, ax, you and i have had this debate before about whether bernie needs to start taking hillary on a little more decisively, and i just don't understand. hillary has through herself and surrogates at one time or another on the campaign trail, you know, she had joaquin castro saying he doesn't care about the hispanic community. she kind of alleged that he was sexist for saying she was shouting about guns. she had chelsea talking about how he wanted to dismantle health care, which i know you thought was the wrong tone. between the racism and the sexism and the -- he's a gun toter and he hates medicare, between all of that -- >> but she means it in a nice way. >> don't you think bernie sanders needs to say enough with this, have you no sense of decency -- >> hillary clinton is blessed with an opponent who doesn't want to go full throttle -- >> that's his appeal. >> -- against her. and that is part of

a very big deal for bernie sanders. and they are really using that, making the case, of course, that easy electable because he can get all of the money from small donations. but i think right now the big thing for the bernie sanders camp is all about turnout. he has said and he said at the white house a few days ago that he believes that if he's able to get a big turnout in iowa, he'll win the caucuses and that's very big for him because he's doing very well in new hampshire. the question, of course, for bernie sanders is whether he's going to be able to get those small, young voters out to the caucuses. this is where hillary clinton conceivably could have an advantage because her voters have been to this rodeo before. a lot of the people who are supporting bernie sanders are new at this, if you will, john. so big questions as we go into the last day. i can also tell you that on social media and in other places, we're seeing a lot of strategy papers floating around among the supporters of bernie sanders to try to give p

bernie sanders needs the high turnout. even the president said, peter, in his interview with politico, bernie sanders is not barack obama. then he had to have a meeting with bernie sanders. >> just to confirm that he wasn't barack obama. >> they put his thumb on the scale, and he is not. >> but he kind of put his thumb on the scale for hillary clinton, and then he pulled it off and had a meeting with bernie sanders. to sanders' point, if you look at any data -- some people don't trust polling. this is in every single poll. if you have a younger crowd, if he turns out younger people like obama did, if he turns out independents like obama did, if he gets an influx of a lot of new voters who have never caucused before like obama did, that's the recipe. >> well, and how unlikely that this accept tseptogenarian from would suddenly be obama who was this rock star young guy and came out of nowhere. it's a very different profile and he's targeting the same constituencies. every democratic -- most democratic primary tend to have an

bernie sanders is at 11%. that is a big gaping difference. that explains why the clinton campaign is looking past iowa and new hampshire. two of the whitest states in the country. >> exactly. that is the hillary clinton campaign argument. iowa and new hampshire are set upper effe perfectly for sander. the clinton campaign has advantages everywhere else because the democratic electricorate. sanders argument last night was everyone else will like me when i win. he is seeing iowa and new hampshire to change everywhere. that's the worry if you are hillary clinton at this point. that iowa could snowball. the clinton campaign is not giving up on iowa. she will spend three days there this week. she definitely is looking to set up an if iowa and new hampshire go badly, what next scenario. she can lean on a stronger minority population in other states to help her out. >> eric bradner in south carolina for us. very early or very late for you. thanks so much. talk to you in a bit. >> the winner of the debate are the drapes behind eric bradner. >> a litt

we have live pictures of bernie sanders rally in waterloo. he's expected to be near that sign any minute. the sign doesn't move. bernie sanders will. jeb bush speaking to voters in cedar rapids. he's had his daughter by his side all weekend. jeb bush not doing well in the latest poll in this state. hillary clinton will be in council bluffs. that's where donald trump is. she's in a very tight race with bernie sanders. you can see hillary clinton on stage. that's her daughter chelsea clinton on stage with the former secretary of state. i said polls are close right now. there is a brand-new poll that has sent politicos into a frenzy this afternoon. i'm talking about the des moines register politics poll. donald trump up five points over ted cruz. this is the first time the des moines register polls look anything like that. as to the democrats, hillary clinton is up three points on bernie sanders. that is awfully close. and our cnn orc poll, shows the same thing as the register on the democratic side and roughly the same thing on the republican s

bernie sanders is not vacuous. he is new to a lot of people, but he has a core message that is resonating to a lot of democrats because a lot of democrats don't think hillary clinton or barack obama were tough enough in the wake of the financial crisis. they still feel betrayed by that, and they want someone who is going to be tougher on the powers that be. >> is there a part of you deeply worried and stressed by these recent polls that have seen such a surge for sanders? >> no. frankly, the only ad we're running is one criticizing ted cruz. we won't attack bernie sanders. we won't. bernie is doing a lot of good for the party. i think ultimately hillary clinton will win. i'm not worried. she will. iowa and new hampshire are critically important, but they're white liberals. some of my best friends are white liberals, but the democratic party is lot more than the white liberals. once we get more people of color and lgbt people, she's likely to really roll. she's holding her own in new hampshire. i'm pretty impressed

bernie sanders announced april 30 of the past year. this past summer, he had 25,000 people in rallies across the , sotry, but the media lavished its attention on donald trump, that it did not pay attention to bernie sanders. notuld argue that it was until bernie sanders essentially began to compete with hillary clinton clinton in the fundraising area in the last he broken evenk or brought in more money through small donations, that the media said, wait a minute, maybe he is the real deal and there is a viability factor here. media measuredur the candidate's viability by how much money they raised i think is rotten. donation, someone is not as mortgaged to the powerful interests that dominate our country at this time of staggering inequality. guest this morning is the editor and publisher of nation magazine. talking about their endorsement of bernie sanders and other issues in 2016. if you want to ask questions -- of hillary clinton, you talked about making deals to get things will notashington bring the change so desperately needed. --

i am bernie sanders and i approve this message. my plan is make wall street banks in the ultra rich pay their fair share of taxes. provide living wages for working people, ensure equal pay for women. the middle class will continue to disappear. will.our help we host: on the bernie sanders campaign. -- she is inve is des moines on this sunday morning. thank you very much for being with us. guest: happy new year. host: as he said earlier a month out from the iowa caucuses. according to real clear politics, ted cruz remains in the league in the state but donald trump also very strong right now. the big question is who is going to show up on caucus night? give us the lay of the land. host: guest: yesterday there were two candidates campaigning in iowa. mike huckabee, the winner of the 2008 caucuses. this message was iowa republicans have not yet made up their minds. he was touting sim internal polling that his campaign has aroundich indicates three out of every four republicans in iowa who are likely to attend the caucuses have not yet

bernie sanders is not stupid. he knows if he gives americans free college and pays off their debt, he is going to get their vote, but what he is not telling end, we mayn the run out of other people's money it will look like russia and we will have empty fields and stores. it will be just like russia. you did not mention them aside from the koch brothers. guest: this is the richest country in the world. bernie sanders spoke to something that i think is one of the great ideas of our time. it used to be called the tobin tax. there is now legislation in congress that it could be taxed, essentially tax wall street to rebuild main street. a discussion on trade speculation that can be retrieved to do public investment in this country. to talk about squandering money on debt, college debt or health care is wrong. there are good deficits. it is not clear one would need a deficit if you have the right tax structure in this country. to do public investment in the future of this country is the greatest thing you can do. about

they are not running against bernie sanders. they know i will take them on and do what i set i will to rein in abuses on wall street and the financial markets and provide the kind of economic road plan i think will produce results were people. mark: that was hillary clinton speaking, and that was about 50 feet from where we are city. our next guest is a leading lady of the iowa press corps, and she joins us here. ok, happy new year. >> happy new year. mark: we have a two-person race, and i think most people agree, donald trump versus ted cruz and hillary clinton versus bernie sanders. which do you think would be a bigger nailbiter, or do you think they both will be? >> i think they both will be nailbiter's, and i think after the championship game on the gridiron, they are going to engage. i went to a clinton call center last week, and i was struck by the fact that middle-aged white women were walking into start making calls. and walking into a small precinct, saying i need to volunteer for this person. i want to see a female pre

bernie sanders it's neck and neck but bernie sanders has got the momentum, what's behind it. they're listening to his attacks on wall street. >> they are. i mentioned earlier that majority of democrats in iowa think that hillary clinton might side with big donors over regular people. where as 91% of them feel that bernie sanders would side with regular people over big donors. there's another part of this, too, you notice of course the race has gotten a little more heated in recent days. each have been critiquing each other, marginally iowa democrats feel that bernie sanders critiques on hillary clinton have been fair where as lesson hillary clinton's attacks on bernie sanders had been fair. in fact, even many of hillary clinton's supporters feel that bernie sanders makes their point about her. >> dickerson: does she have something that she does this she can hang on to that if we -- she should talk about that voters seem to be listening to when it comes to her? >> absolutely. it's electability. when you look at the people who want most of all to win in november, they are overw

eugene, this was the bernie sanders debate. >> it really was. it was all about bernie sanders. he has proposed -- i guess he has proposed revolutionary change. hillary clinton very much pushed back against that and pushed back against various aspects of bernie sanders' record, especially on guns. she was on the offense on the gun issue. on wall street, which was one of the more interesting clashes, i thought, the tables were turned in a way and he very much went after her for taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees. >> let's go to some highlights here. let's go to the highlights here. one of the first heated exchanges tonight was over health care and here was hillary clinton and bernie sanders arguing over the cost of bernie sanders' proposal. >> we have the affordable care act. that is one of the greatest accomplishments of president obama, of the democratic party and of our country, and we have already seen 19 million americans get insurance. we have seen the end of pre-existing conditions keeping people from getting insurance. we have seen women no longer pa

she always performs well in them, but bernie sanders, i guess you have to call bernie sanders a winner because clinton wasn't really able to stop his momentum. this is turning into a race where the dynamic is purity versus pragmatism. sanders is rlivinrepresentativ things are done now.ate and how- people who are liberal and dissatisfied with the policy achievements of president obama who want a more progressive champion. sanders still looks strong. iowa and new hampshire are his best states. those are places where the electorate is whiter and more liber liberal. there are questions if he can expand more broadly. he definitely didn't do anything to lose the momentum we have seen him pick up in the polls. >> eric, we are showing some of the polls now. the democratic choice for nominee nationally, clinton and sanders. let's look at another poll. south carolina, african-americans, clinton, 82%. sanders, 11%. you know, there is early voting in a couple of weeks. then, is hillary clinton looking beyond these first two states and looking at south carolina? >> absolutely. she is trying to buil

sanders would go, you don't really want to support her you want to support bernie. so there's a lot of horse trading and cajoling. it's interesting to watch. >> iowa had egg onists face in 2012 when party leaders declared mitt romney the winner of the republican caucus. >> first place we had governor mitt romney with 274 votes. >> only to announce two weeks later there had been a miscount. rick santorum was the actual winner, and that mistake many argue cost santorum valuable momentum. mary snow, al jazeera. >> coming up, the fight against the crisis of epidemic proportions. >> on thursday the world health organization announced it would be holding an emergency meeting to discuss the zika virus. which has been exploding exponentially. it is leaked to guillan barre syndrome, and peril sis. ebola claimed more than 11,000 lives. one of the hardest hit countries was liberia. a tragic story of one liberian village's fight after a man brings his sick child to the facility. >> knowing what to expect is still impossible. >> i always keep it at the back of my mind that ebola

bernie sanders announced april 30 of the past year. this past summer, he had 25,000 people in rallies across the , sotry, but the media lavished its attention on donald trump, that it did not pay attention to bernie sanders. notuld argue that it was until bernie sanders essentially began to compete with hillary clinton clinton in the fundraising area in the last he broken evenk or brought in more money through small donations, that the media said, wait a minute, maybe he is the real deal and there is a viability factor here. media measuredur the candidate's viability by how much money they raised i think is rotten. donation, someone is not as mortgaged to the powerful interests that dominate our country at this time of staggering inequality. guest this morning is the editor and publisher of nation magazine. talking about their endorsement of bernie sanders and other issues in 2016. if you want to ask questions -- of hillary clinton, you talked about making deals to get things will notashington bring the change so desperately needed. --

can bernie sanders win? and of course how old is bernie sanders. we see that a lot with different candidates. with hillary clinton we see things like, will hillary clinton get prosecuted? questions around the benghazi hearings. and with o'malley we hear why is martin o'malley running for president, is he still running for president. folks with questions of whether he is in the race at this point. >> what you are tell ing me is there is snark on-line. we are shocked by those. >> curiosity. >> fair enough. >> daniel, seiberg, thank you very much. >>> as we have noted, iowa will kick off the primary season with caucuses, it is 15 days from now. we will be watching the debate with some voters in iowa. they are at a debate watch party in urbandale, basically a suburb of des moines. the race is tight between hillary clinton and bernie sanders. three polls in the last week, two had hillary clinton up by three or less and one has sanders up by two. a lot going on tonight. 23 minutes from the debate. we'll be right back. me smile. spending the day with my n

bernie sanders and hillary clinton so close. they're drawing on completely different universes. >> reporter: it's incredible, george. look at the generation gap here. bernie sanders has a lead of nearly 40 points among iowa democrats under 35. but it cuts both ways. if you look at hillary clinton, she has an equally huge lead among iowa democrats over 65. remember, traditionally, the older voters are more reliable caucusgoers. that could be an advantage. to her going into this final stretch. >> the poll shows the strategy of bringing out bill clinton. >> reporter: he's doing more events than hillary clinton in the final stretch. look at this. iowa democrats love bill clinton. his favorability rating at 86%. only 11% unfavorable. the only democrat more popular among democrats here is barack obama. >> meanwhile, on the republican side, donald trump with the momentum. there are some warning signs inside the poll. >> reporter: yeah, trump has taken a beating over the last couple of weeks. negative advertising attacks from his oppone

but it's not just bernie sanders. eight years ago hillary clinton was running for president and actively trying to court pro-gun democrats against barack obama. she portrays herself as a democratic church-going gun-toting democrat. >> we have a different set of rules, what may work in new york city is certainly not going to work in montana. so for the federal government to be having any kind of you know blanket rules that they're going to try to impose, i think doesn't make sense. >> that is not the hillary clinton we were hearing last night, nick. is somebody getting the better deal? >> i think hillary clinton probably a little bit. but here is the truth. i'm not sure this hurts bernie sanders as much as she hopes it does. i feel like for these type of attack issues to really hurt the candidate it has to play in the bigger picture that voters have from the candidate. so for instance, evan bey, and a left wing socialist, he is pro-gun. i'm not sure it really changes how they think about him. i do think if you were won

so is bernie sanders. so i do think it changes the dynamic of the race. in the democratic side, on the democratic side, hillary clinton has always been saying just wait a minute, wait until we get to south carolina, wait until we get to the sec states where african-american democrats start voting because they are such a huge and critical part of the democratic coalition. but on the republican side, you win iowa, you win new hampshire, just try to find somebody who's done both of those things and not gone on and won the nomination. >> good stuff. byron york, thank you very much, in des moines. >> thank you. >>> tonight's fox debate, we're less than three hours away from the kickoff debate and then of course the primetime event that will this time not be featuring donald trump but the focus certainly seems to be on the other candidates who feel that they're going to have ample time to take advantage of that increased oxygen in the room. we have a lot more on that. this might come up as well, these volatile markets. i can tell you that i've give rn bret baie

a lot of the bernie sanders' voters are not voting for bernie sanders. the last time a clipton ran for president, it was a new democrat, and said that the era of big government is over, and bill clinton did. the demt kratic party has moved left since then, and this is bernie sanders' party as far as the soul it believes and elizabeth warren's party, and the most powerful thing that a democratic party voter can do, and caucus voter is to not only ratify the hillary clinton nomination, but to pull her to the message. i think that a lot of the bernie sanders' voters the end understand that hillary may be the nominee, but this is going to give their vote right now a real purpose. hillary, love us, capture our message and represent our angry populism. >> and donna, i want to ask you, because again speaking to internal battles it was interesting to hear our president in an interview with our own gloria borger call him out f -- for calling her out for being late to the income e inequality, and how much damage was that and an intentional swipe to hillary clinton

. >> bernie sanders pulled off a stunning upset. inside politics, the biggest stories, sourced by the best reporters, now. >> welcome to inside politics, i'm john king. thanks for sharing were sunday morning with with us. breaking news. the americans released from iranian jails are now on their way home. the president of the iran spoke about the historic prison swap just last hour and we're waiting now to hear from president obama. we expect that later this morning. the dealing and lifting of sanctions is prart of the nuclear deal, of course an immediate issue in the 2016 campaign. democrats call it proof diplomacy works, republicans see it very differently. >> there may be some ugly core parts of this deal we don't know about yet, so we should withhold judgment, but right now, i give thanks that the americans are coming back, and this should have happened a long, long time ago. >> all the details haven't come out on that, but every time we show weakness, it's a victory for iran. >> they know that if you take an american hostage, ba

bernie sanders hasn't been vetted. i don't think most voters know about the socialist positions that he's taken over the course of his -- over the course of his career. some of the out-of-the-mainstream positions that he took before he entered federal -- you know, federal politi politics, running for congress and the is that the. there was a "new york times" story about this today. those are the types of things that republicans would seize on if bernie sanders was the nominee. now, that explains why republicans are running the campaign to get bernie sanders to be the democratic nominee. they fact check on his side of the democratic debate the other night. karl rove has an ad running against hillary clinton that parrots bernie sanders' talking points. they're doing that because they don't want to run against hillary clinton, and they do want to run against bernie sanders. >> now, nia, brad says it's because bernie sanders has not been vetted enough, and that's why voters have such a favorable view about him and that's w

sanders would go, you don't really want to support her you want to support bernie. so there's a lot of horse trading and cajoling. it's interesting to watch. >> iowa had egg onists face in 2012 when party leaders declared mitt romney the winner of the republican caucus. >> first place we had governor mitt romney with 274 votes. >> only to announce two weeks later there had been a miscount. rick santorum was the actual winner, and that mistake many argue cost santorum valuable momentum. mary snow, al jazeera. >> coming up, the fight against the crisis of epidemic proportions. >> i'm doing what's right for you. >> that's the kind of debate that we need to have. >> stay with al jazeera america for... >> it's going to be about getting people out to the caucus, which is not an easy thing to do. >> comprehensive coverage that's... >> the focus will be on south carolina tonight. >> on thursday the world health organization announced it would be holding an emergency meeting to discuss the zika virus. which has been exploding exponentially. it is leaked to guillan barre synd

heard hillary clinton, bernie sanders responds in just two minutes. heard hillary clinton, bernie sanders responds in just two minutes. i wanted to put the odds in my favor. so my doctor told me about botox® an fda-approved treatment that significantly reduces headache days for adults with chronic migraine. 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more. it's proven to actually prevent headache days. and it's injected by my doctor once every 3 months. the effects of botox® may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. alert your doctor right away, as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be a sign of a life-threatening condition. side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. don't take botox® if you have a skin infection. tell your doctor about your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. put the odds on your side.

hillary clinton and bernie sanders tied. cnn's phil matingly joins us now with the highlights and the lowlights of last night's debate. phil, what did you see? >> last night serving more or less as the final argument, if you will, the last democratic debate before the voters take place in iowa, before the votes even in new hampshire. and what you saw is a number of democrats, three, but two that everybody's focused on, that are recognizing that not only is there a compressed calendar, but also a very tight race. >> reporter: the gloves -- >> i think secretary clinton knows that what she says is very disingenuous. >> reporter: -- are off. >> i'm not sure whether we're talking about the plan you just introduced tonight, or we're talking about the plan you introduced nine times in the congress. >> just weeks before the first votes are cast, hillary clinton and bernie sanders putting an exclamation point on a week of sharp sparring on sunday night. clinton at one point in the campaign, unwilling to even mention sanders' name, no

thank you. >> we'll be right back with bernie sanders. thank you. >> we'll be right back with bernie sanders. seriously? where do you think you're going? to work, with you. it's taco o esday. you're not coming. i took mucinex to help get rid of my mucusy congestion. oh, right then i'll swing by in like 4 hours. forget the tacos! one pill lasts 12 hours. i'm good all day. wait! your loss. i was going to wear a sombrero. only mucinex has a bi-layer tablet that starts fast, and keeps working. not 4, not 6, but 12 full hours. start the relief. ditch the misery. let's end this. the future belongs to the fast. and to help you accelerate, we've created a new company... one totally focused on the true partnership where people,technology and ideas push everyone forward. accelerating innovation. accelerating transformation. accelerating next. hewlett packard enterprise. jane didn't like restrictions. not in life. and not when it came to watching her calories. why settle on taste? ja thought. that's why jane loves light & fit greek nonfat yogurt. bu

bernie sanders came to play. you had a 74-year-old revolutionary there on stage, taking it right to hillary clinton, not in the personal way, but saying these are the areas i disagree with you on. this is why i would be a better leader because i was against the war in iraq before you were. i was against those trade deals before you were. i was for climate change before you were. you know and on and on, and then you saw hillary clinton give it right back and basically say, without again, without criticizing bernie sanders personally, but saying you know what, i can govern. i've been there. i've been under attack and i keep coming back, and i know thousand get -- >> that was the first answer to the young person, when were you born, '93 or whatever. you were chomping at the bit. what were you saying, ben? >> all three of them were at their very best. this was the best i've seen all three of them. hillary clinton demonstrated that she is probably the best prepared person to be commander in chief maybe in the history

bernie sanders looks headed for

bernie sanders and that's what we see when we talk to him. he really thinks, as we both talked to him yesterday, he can inspire the young people. >> reporter: he does, andrea. it seems like he's having the time of his life. the two of you boxing together when i've been talking to him, he seems to be really enjoying this phase of the campaign, where none of us really expected him to be here and he is really driven by these young voters. i went to spend some time at his headquarters a couple of days ago. and some of these young people have been camped out there for days. you know, working to try to get him elected. but of course, what they have to grapple with is just how negative they're willing to go and forgive me, bernie sanders just took the stage at this college at mount pleasant, iowa, but is he ultimately going to try and push through, win this thing and go more negative than he has in the past? as you know, he's taking pride in never having run what he defines to be a negative ad but knocking goldman sachs, not mentioning hillary clint

bernie sanders can define you. and the clinton campaign however makes up in operational fortitude, in the ability to actually turn voters out. and i think that iowa is very unique. iowa you have to really know what you are doing in order to succeed. that is why we have to -- >> yeah. >> -- hillary clinton goes into monday with an advantage. >> and it's worth noting sanders has rarely invoked her name. but successfully talked about wall street and income inequality and that's where she's failed. and she's failed to understand that. >> until now. >> right. >> donald trump, of course he is counting on those newcomers to try to win in iowa. they have just made that point. up next we'll see why trump's ground strategy in iowa depends upon as we've said supporters who have never caucused before. can they get them out? i've been called a control freak... i like to think of myself as more of a control... enthusiast. mmm, a perfect 177-degrees. and that's why this road warrior rents from national. i can bypass the counter a

bernie sanders points to the poll, particularly the marist poll, that shows bernie sanders is beating donald trump handily in new hampshire, whereas hillary clinton is only up by 1 point, bernie sanders is saying i'm the more electable candidate. no one talked about bernie sanders yet. this issue donald trump brought up about 90% texas, we will hear a lot about the amount of spending and where it's coming from. should bernie sanders be the nominee, it will be a very tough road for him and the numbers will change. that being said, i think what donald trump is trying to do is say, whoa, don't let bernie sanders put the cart before the horse here. >> woodruff: about 45 seconds left, tamara. fill us in on where does the republican race stand right now in iowa? >> it's sort of a neck and neck situation depending on which poll you look at between donald trump and ted cruz, ted cruz being the senator from texas, and ted cruz is really consolidated the evangelical vote, and donald trump seems to be getting almost all of the rest. and trump today, i think, even speculated as to why some of tho

>> bernie sanders called it out yesterday. clinton, iowa, on the mississippi river on the eastern side of iowa. don't let her and her people tell you that this can happen. you remember what happened eight years ago and the people in the crowd -- he drew a crowd about twice as big as her. a younger crowd. can they turn out to caucus? can social media and other things that drives his rallies drive them to caucus? >> you make a key point about the geography. if you want to study the iowa caucuses go to cnnpolitics.com. look at 2008 and 2012 and look at the map. who won where. in the eastern part of the state hillary clinton tended to win in the central part of the state. in the eastern part of the state obama ran it up in clinton and the cedar rapids area. on the republican side same thing. that's where romney got his vote and the evangelical smaller counties. that part of the state i spent time there they said clinton organization has got it this time. you feel the energy. crowd size don't tell you everything. you feel the energ
