Trump: Recently I was in Los Angeles and I was driving from Beverly Hills out to a great golf course that I own on the ocean, Trump National, which is in Rancho Palos Verdes; it's a beautiful area, a beautiful course.  But while I was driving—I was on 405—I noticed how bad the roads were.  It wasn't that they're old, but the workmanship is so bad.  It was terrible.  They have all sorts of cuts in it; they're cutting them with diamond-edged saws.  The cuts are crooked; they're all over the place.  And you know while I think in terms of this country and how badly we're doing as a country, and I say we should rebuild this country, not Afghanistan and Iraq.  We ought to be rebuilding our airports, our roads and everything else.  It's still important; you've got to have the right contractors and you have to have the right workmanship.  When I look at this road, how badly built it is, it's disgusting.  They spent all of that money, and they have lines that go like this [waves his hand to demonstrate].  It's really a disgrace.  One thing.  If I run, and if I win, you're going to see things that are done properly.
