His remarks for the first time will be in english, only brief remarks before the two men meet together in private. They have shared concerns publicly about things like Climate Change and income inequality, but behind the smiles there are some real issues of substance like the topic of religious freedom. There will be midday prayers said at st. Matthews cathedral and the pope will head to the basilica where he will canonize junipero serra, the man who brought christianity to california, the first time a canonization will take place on u. S. Soil. Matt, whats struck me so far this morning is just the energy among the people we met here. We met one man who isnt even catholic who said to me im here because this pope is different. He speaks to all of us, and as the father of Young Children i can tell you never wake a sleeping baby. We met another family who brought their 1monthold. We got up at 4 30 in the morning because we wanted our son to be blessed. Matt. Parents with their children here at the white house as well. Peter, thanks very much. Nbcs tom costello is at the apostolic nunciature here in washington where the pope is staying. Tom, whats the mood like there . Reporter ill tell you, the energy in the crowd is so well, its exciting, and its also really contagious. Behind me is the nunciature. You can see the concrete blocks for the security. Massachusetts avenue, the main thoroughfare through washington, d. C. Now lets pan over here because were being serenaded or more precisely the pope is being serenaded this morning. Weve had music and crowds gathering. They started about 4 00, 4 30 this morning and just a sense of perspective. Behind that metal fence right there, thats the Vice President s residence so as you can see hes in good company. This pope has been greeted by crowds very excited about his message since he arrived yesterday and more about that fiat because that really spoke to i think this message of humility, and as you know this pope has really talked about his capitalism. His fiat was really dwarfed by the security details, suvs, so really this message has resonated with this crowd. Ill tell you, matt, as i was spanishspeaking people who has come to see this pope. Them. Tom, thanks very much. Lets bring in nbcs special anchor Maria Shriver helping out with our coverage all week long. Good morning to you. Good morning, matt. Weve known each other a long time and covered a lot of stories and issues relating to the church here and in rome. I know youve been very excited about this visit. What do you want to hear the pope say to the American People in his first remarks today . I think like tom said, i think all of us are interested in what he has to say. I hope hell encourage us to look out for our fellow man and woman. I hope he will continue, like he go out of our homes and to be of service. I hope he will continue about his talk about less judgment on people of different sexual genders and also just men and women in particular, and i think he talked about a revolution of tenderness and kindness and compassion, and i think that thats what were all hoping for, and i think that thats what the world needs and i think thats why hes speaking to people of different faiths because everybody can understand that, and i think everybody thinks we need more of that. Glad to have you here with me, and youll stay with us throughout the popes visit here. Maria, thank you very much. In our next half hour a closer look at the popes simple life and the new tone that he is setting with his papacy, but right now ill head back to new york and give it over to savannah. Matt, thank you very much. Greg burke is a Senior Communications adviser to the vatican and joins us this morning. Good morning. This is popes first visit to the country. A lot of people know how they feel the pope. I guess the question is how does he feel about us . America . I think the pope is excited seeing a new group of people. Theres no doubt about that. It is totally new for him but not totally. Its totally new landing in the u. S. , but obviously hes met a lot of americans since working in rome and since becoming pope, but key thing hes talked about this. He says i just want to give an embrace to everybody i can. Nobody should be left out of the popes embrace, a bit of the tenderness that maria was talking about. What is his message to americans . I mean, we read about how he feels about capitalism or consumerism. Is there going to be some tough love for his flock during this visit . I think there will be a mention. You know, congress will be the important speech, and i think thats more the state of the union speech. Today is sort of like a warmup, an appetizer is it, drinks before dinner. Congress will be the big speech but everything the pope says is basically goes from one key phrase which is god loves you, and one of his main message is god loves you, god forgive you, and i think more on a social political term the core larry is god loves you, show that love, share that love with somebody else, so i think we will here that. I dont think it will be the strident criticism of capitalism that the pope got in america. The pope is suspicious of wall street, likes main street and recognizes the great good the u. S. Has done in bringing so many people out of poverty but that doesnt mean he wont say, hey, its been good for you. But, you know, be more generous now. There was a provocative cover of newsweek. Im sure you saw it a few weeks ago asking the question is the Pope Catholic . And i guess the point was to say he has emphasized a different kind of tone in terms of immigration or gay rights, a whole host of issues, on the other hand, he hasnt watered down Church Doctrine at all. Whats interesting is people are listening, you know. The bishops are known in the media as opposing to obamacare for some things but they have also been pushing for Affordable Health care and on the edge of immigration, you know, working for that, so its very the pope is saying the same thing that bishops have been doing but people are listening now that the pope is there. Hes not watering down doctrine. If you listen to the homilies in the morning hes a very oldfashioned parish priest. Thanks so much. Well have a lot more this morning and well bring you his arrival to the white house live. Moving on to other news, Hillary Clintons email controversy back in the headlines with a report now that the fbi has recovered emails thought to be deleted from the private computer server she used as secretashry of state. Nbcs Andrea Mitchell has more on that story this morning. Andrea, good morning. Reporter good morning, savannah. Those new reports today that the fbi has indeed recovered both personal and workrelated emails from that private server. The fbi is investigating how classified information was handled by this account. Clinton told her lawyers to turn over the server last month after the Inspector General for intelligence agencies asked for that fbi probe. It had already been reported that the fbi thought they could recover some of the emails from the server, even though they had been deleted. What is new today is that they are actually able to get them and are now sorting through what they believe is personal from what is workrelated. The Justice Department has said that clinton had every right to delete the emails, but this ensures that there will continue to be a drip, drip, drip from this issue as clinton tries to campaign. And theres a new indication today that the campaign is in some trouble. A bloomberg poll just out this morning shows that Vice President joe biden who has yet to decide if hes even running and berds nie sanders are closing in on clinton, she at 33 , bidened a 24 and sanders 23 . Biden advisers say he is likely to make a decision in the next few weeks in time to be on the stage next month for the first democratic debate on october 13th. If he decides to run.
