This Morning from CBS News, May 16, 2016
Outsider gambit
Republican operatives staunchly opposed to Donald Trump have launched furtive efforts to draft a third-party candidate. While no possible contender has agreed, several are open to being approached, CBS News has learned. One individual involved in the process tells CBS News the next three to four weeks are critical to figuring out if launching an independent bid is realistic.
Agent of change
Will Rahn explains why he believes it's foolish to assume that Donald Trump is playing his Republican supporters for dupes. You can argue that the changes a President Trump would bring would be disastrous. But a Trump presidency would almost irrefutably provoke a major realignment in our politics. Many people are hungry for it, regardless of the cost.
Professional fugitive
Only on "CBS This Morning," we speak to a Georgia prison escapee who evaded capture for 48 years. After making one mistake that allowed authorities to track him down, Robert Stackowitz says he's too old and sick now to return to prison.
Hot pursuit
Someone dies almost every day as the result of a high-speed police chase, but one agency is trying to make things less dangerous by having police officers shoot something other than bullets at suspects' speeding vehicles.
Feeling the sting
A swarm of aggressive, so-called "killer bees" have been attacking a town in Northern California. The swarm apparently took over an amateur beekeeper's backyard honeybee hive, and since being evicted, they've been on the rampage.
A reporter's life
Morley Safer has worked in television news for 61 years -- 46 of them for "60 Minutes" -- longer than anyone else. It's fair to say that nobody alive today has seen as much and reported on it as brilliantly as Safer. As the iconic newsman get's ready for the next chapter, we look back over a remarkable career.
Young Americans
Some of America's wealthiest entrepreneurs got their start before their peers graduated from college. Bill Gates and Richard Branson launched their first ventures before turning 21. But tomorrow's titans could start even younger, with the help of a bank designed just for kids.
Happiest days
Dreading retirement? Don't. The vast majority of retirees report being more satisfied with their lives after they hang up their spurs, research suggests. We look at some of the keys to ensuring a happy retirement.
