america's lost highways. we'll tell you what's become of america's first coast to coast roadway. the lincoln highway and show you the famous san francisco exposition it was built to promote. we'll take you to by gone days. imagine driving from argentina to alaska in an antique car. >>> and this highway inspired a song and a tv show. remembering route 66. and the little towns that all but disappeared when it was replaced by the big interstate. all straight ahead tonight on a second look. >>> good evening i'm julie haener and this is a second look. these days we pretty much take the interstate highway system for granted. you can drive across the country nonstop on broad well paveed roads. and take your time and stop to eat and sleep all along the way. but a century ago when the automobile was young there was no central route until someone decided to create one in 1913. they would call it the lincoln highway and it would stretch in new york to san francisco. a journey that could be completed in 40 days, but only if you could hit the top speed of 18 miles per hour. >> do you know what that l there stands for? it stands for everything we have come to stand for. in this nation of highways, the lincoln highway came first. it was a wildly audacious idea of 1913 to widen and straighten and pave and then to link the main streets of america and the little trails that went nowhere. to make a path for the motor car from new york to california. how did they do it frank rosa in your part of nebraska? >> by hand. >> brick by brick. but hardly any of lincoln highway remains. the way west has fallen by the waist side. >> this 70-year-old guide book to the lincoln highway recommends taking supplies along on your drive from coast to coast. loaves of bread, dozens of eggs. but diners would spring up soon enough and billboards and gas stations. modern america itself would spring up soon enough. we are a roadside nation now. the lincoln highway was the road that made us one. >> the people who built the lincoln highway worked to make sure it was done in time for the panama pacific international exposition. it opened in san francisco in 1915. this is film of the dedication in 1915 of the terminus of the lincoln highway. it ended on the corner of san francisco. and it brought people to one of the greatest events in the nation's history

america has become the scapegoat for all of canada's problems. >> why are you angry at america? >> a lot of reasons. number one, vancouver canucks. we want the in orderique back. you took the win beg, that was too much. bully skoal. you a hockey fan. >> no, i'm american. >> here a new generation of canucko facists are being trained to hate. clearly it's just a matter of time before they strike. >> i think they're more afraid of us than we are of them to be honest. >> so are you saying we should invade canada before canada invades us? >> that's all i need right there, yes. >> as americans we simply have no other choice. >> americans have a choice. a personal choice. every individual has a choice to use fossil fuels or not. >> done, all right, easy. we'll stop using your oil. >> let me give you an example of what that might mean, though. obvious transportation means would have to change. your cell phone, video games, mp3 players, your i pads, all these things are made from a petrochemical or petroleum-based products. >> what about internet porn. >> that would be gone. >> i was beginning to see politics in a whole new light. maybe canada wasn't so bad after all. >> o canada ♪ ♪ canada ♪ canada ♪ meow, meow, meow >> welcome back. my guests tonight a former member of navy seal team 6, his new book is called seal team 6 memoirs of an elite navy seal sniper. welcome to the program howard wasdin, sir. >> thanks for being here. >> a great honor. >> tremendous. >> just like to say hello, take that applause and direct it to the men and women who are serving now. >> serving right now. >> i think a lot of people don't realize seal team six is an ongoing elite subset of the seal teams; is that correct? >> i don't know what you mean by subset. they have a different mission, john. they are the tier 1 counterterrorist units. which means they have the assets, the training, capabilities to deploy anywhere at a moment's notice. >> right. >> and do this type of op that you saw on me first. >> i guess what i am saying is there are other navy seal teams that are not part of six. >> there are other number teams, that's right. >> and how, does their training differ from the other navy seals. i know it differents from let's say the regular navy but how would it different from even the other navy seals? >> let me be very clear on one point here. just because are you a member of seal team 6, or a more elite seal, all seals are elite. it just means you've decided to have a different lifetile. and what i mean by that is you are even more committed to doing this type of job it becomes a lifestyle day in and day out of practicing, training, never ending. and that's why you have about probably a six to eight year training life span. >> while you're actually there, because you physically just can't keep doing that. you mentally can't keep doing that and your family is going to suffer too because if you have got kids like i have, you couldn't serve two masters, it cost me my wife and kids because i was more married to the team. so if you go to this team, it's all or nothing, you have to be completely dedicated and you know, most wives don't like it when a husband wakes up and says hey, my pager is going off, i will see you maybe in a few months. >> and you really do live like a shadow. you kind of move and do that you were in mogadishu. >> that was my career ender, the whole blackhawk down op i got shot three times in that op. there are parallels here we don't need to miss between the mogadishu blackhawk down op and a bata bad op. lessons learn, 234 somalia we didn't have operational security, working with the united nations, with these other countries so people knew when we were coming, leaving, what we were doing. and i'm a republican but the president got it right here. i'm actually thinking more and more about this guy being a really good president. >> what did he get right? >> what he got right is two things actually three things it. one thing definitely was operational security, he did not tell pakistan we were coming. i know that makes us bad people because we did something on their foreign soil. we didn't kill 3,000 of their people, but you know, so we went over there and did that and didn't let them know we were coming so that kept our people safe. made the mission. >> do you think they did that because they felt that that would compromise, they felt they could not trust that chain of command on the other side. >> and since i'm not running for office and i don't want your vote, absolutely second thing is he got it right with this burial at sea. that was ingenuous. >> that was maybe one of the most controversial aspects of it. >> yeah, but think about it, if we had given them somewhere to go and pay homage to this, you know, evil person or whatever that would have been terrible. the other thing he got right was not releasing the pictures. i think he got it right on all three things and i'm sitting here going you know what i didn't vote for the guy but hey, as americato admit when a president gets it right. >> i always thought, i always feel like we don't know enough about war but i think maybe in this particular situation in terms of security, i had not realized just how secretive the seal teams have to be. i mean even in your book there are faces blacked out still. there is an anonymity that needs to occur. >> sure. >> and mogadishu what happened to you. when you were injured. >> i was part of the failed op to take down the, you know, the hotel that day. i was shot the first time at the target hotel. shot the second time, picking up rangers off the street and shot the third time trying to get the hell out of there. in a humvee. >> how long did the process last where you continued to operate while having been shot. >> about four and a half hours. but while we are talking about that -- >> no, let's not glorify that. let's just stop for a second. because you and i it very similar, and i don't, obviously want to brag, but i'm going to show you someth

[applause] that is where foreign policy starts. know who your friends are. know who your enemies are. i do not have the info to know if pakistan is our friend or not. it raises a lot of questions. but i can tell you about one friend we have in that part of the world, it is a country called israel.

>> the fire mued very quickly towards the area where the national laboratories are. we -- we immediately constructed a fire line along highway, one of the laboratories ageneral jay sent to us doing what we call a back burn. we burned system of the green area along the highway so it wide pped the buffer between that and the national land. >> how were the residents coping from being moved to their homes and what is happening? >> a very large fire happened in 2000 -- in los allah mose. and -- los alam of course s. and that alered people for that type of situation. many people were keeping an eye on -- eye -- and as soon as the call for mendtory evaluation -- a mandatory evacuation people were ready to leave. >> meanwhile saudi arabia officials and indonesian officials have been meeting. it followed a recent prozz cushion. her case has shocked indonesian, blaming their own government for not protecting the rights of workers over seas. >> prayers for the pasting of a loved one. it's impossible to think about what muyaki's story. >> she insisted that her mother suffered abuse at the hands of the saudi employers. >> i don't believe my mother killed someone wut a reason. it's impossible. my mother was a good person. maybe she confessed because she was under pressure. no one was defending her. there are more that 1 million workers. they can help prevent problems with their bosses. so before they go abroad, the girls get talk basic arabic. cooking, cleaning, and how to operate simple machines. it's a rigorous schedule but they can end twice as much over sees as they do at home. >> most of the women here are little or no education. these sorts of jobs, they're tickets to freedom, a way to see their families back at home in the village but a strength of recent strategies facing women have well concerned about how well they're protected they are when they go to work at work. an indonesian mygrapt workers. failing to look after their rights. but officials say they're trying to find a solution. >> in the future, we are not going to place our workers to their homes. they're isolated and live alone. so we want our workers to live outside. that way there will be no more abuse cases. but those promises don't mean much to the income of pie grat workers. life is visibly improved. it's the same in villages across the country and that's gone a long way towards blessing millions of indonesians. independence -- indonesians must make sure that it's worth the trip. >> you've been chatting with one of china's biggest music star. >> he has received international fame by combining a pop song. i met up with hill. he's performing here in london. >> as a piianist, i really don't feel nervous. i don't feel there is so much intensity. for me it's a great thing to do and i love doing it. it's natural. >> that's a few words to come up that describe you and they're all superstar, rock star, megastar. and you've been credited with being able to marry the world that's chassic newic. how do you think you've been able to do that? >> they come from where the megastar or rock star comes act. the onl important thing is i want to be really keep going a couple of things that i always wanted to do. and i want to connect as many people as possible. >> he performed for president barack obama in washington in the white house. and you received some criticism for the piece of music you chose to perform which is a chinese piece called "my motherland ". >> were you surprised that you got criticism for that piece which some people said was politically and historically significant? >> i played it simply because of its beautiful melody which i grew up with it. you know, this melody is -- if you go to china and a karaoke bar like this is the top 10 that everyone thinks. and i played this piece many times including in america before you know, this is a way to play a song like the manager. that's it. . i grew up in china. i'm still living in america these days. and i real yrks you know, we'll never do that and this is really -- i will never have attention like what people say and all, make bets side of americans -- i would never do that because it's just not who i am. >> do you think china is opening its doors up to the west in particular with the u.s. and how that's changed within the last two years. i was correct there. coming back, i can see it's time to get it ready. must ready to buy western, you know, world than before. of course, china will never become u.s. or become u.k. because i don't think it's going to happen because the culture is quite different in the end. but the globalization will help that to open more and more. er every encounter for me -- >> every encounter for me is a new beginning. it's like the best thing. >> i'm always at piece when i listen to classical music. you've been watching

america as an agrarian republic. it works in terms of national identity because america's spectacular landscape becomes very much invested with patriotism, and it works literally and symbolically because they all use their gardens as a canvas for their political statement. let me take you to the summer of 1776. americared independence. manhattan west soldiers stroll the streets. the commander of chief and new york is facing 30,000 british troops. the largest fleet that has ever arrived on america's shores. washington has about half the manpower, and it has experienced battle and seen the ships as posing as the ones which are sailing towards new york. so there he is, george washington. as this city is bracing itself for the first and largest battle of independence, he's actually thinking about his garden in mt. vernon. one evening just a few days before the battle of new york he sends out his generals, pushes away his military maps and sits down and writes a letter to his estate manager in mt. vernon, his plantation in virginia. with the chaos of the cannon looming, he is asking his estate manager to design a new garden, and he is talking about trees like this spring crabapple some, oaks and pines and the magna leah. what is even more remarkable than the timing which i think is quite remarkable is th

it's amazing how popular this show has become and again america has voted so tonight we lose four singers. americaed one from each team and judges save one from each team for team christina and team blake. it gets a little confusing, but the bottom line is some people go home tonight and some people will really be shining on stage. for nbc bay area news, i'm sara edwards from los angeles, back to you. >> well, you know, sara, we've got a girl here from the bay area who actually goes to school in l.a., that she's one of the finals. her name is lily elise so we're really rooting for her. did you hear any buzz about that. >> reporter: you know, i haven't heard any buzz specifically about her, but everybody looked really loose and fun. we saw her walk by. we saw all the contestants go by. you know what, they're just excited, that's what it's all about. they're all excited to be here because already their careers are taking off, no matter who wins. >> boy, they are. we've got to get on that voice, i'm telling you. we've got to come up with an act and figure. >> out. thank you. >> i could be your stage

america. who is going to follow you if your mission is become the fourth best city in florida? [laughter] >> eighth best in america? nobody is going to follow you. people follow excellence. people are drawn to it. resources come to it. individuals start coming forward. people hear about it, i want to be part of that. out of stanford, the large research and development company, very big group. we were recruiting them to florida. curt is the head. he came and met with me. he said we're thinking about doing it here, here, here. what do you have to offer? i want to ask you what do you have to offer? how are you going to help us build the best city in america? his recent book that he's about to public, that's what got him to come. he wanted to be part of becoming the best city in america. so that has to be your mission in my opinion, everybody's. and then how do you do it? you do it by improving the quality of life of the people that live in the city every single day. every day, everybody in your organization, and in the city and not just -- not just the government, but the businesses and the civic organizations and faith organizations. everybody in the neighborhood. everybody involved in the enterprise should come in with the idea of how are we going to build and make the quality of life better. if everybody you are thinking about doing you go through that filter, then you say, is this going to make the quality of life better for the folks at st. pete or whatever city you live in? if the answer is yes, dough it. if the answer is no, even if anybody wants you to do it. so you run it through that filter. so in our case, that was our mission

america and then barack obama has become president. this sea change. and on the night that america celebrates, you are selected to sing. what are you feeling just before you go out? >> right now i'm -- i am very emotional because it's like i'm reliving it. and it was really powerful. and overwhelming. and i kept telling myself, okay, this is not about you. you have to do this for them. you have to do this for history. and it's the only way i was able to get through that song because i wanted to ball, and i wanted to stare and i wanted to watch. but i was a part of it. so it was probably the -- oh, my god. i can't believe i was there. and i can't believe it was my voice for that moment, and so honored. and so many memories. so many stories from my father and granparents and my mother all going through my mind. and it was really fantastic. >> have you had to put up with racism as you grew up? did you experience the bad side of it? >> a bit. but, you know, i -- i feel like now people at least with my career, i've kind of broken barriers. and i don't think people think about my race. i think they look at me as an entertainer and a musician and i'm very happy that that's changing because i think that's how i look at people. and that's how i look at my friends. it's not about color and race and i am just happy that that's changing. >> there was a moment around that time when you had the most powerful man in the world, barack obama, african-american. you had the biggest tv star in the world, oprah. you, the biggest singing star in the world. you know, tiger woods was then the number one golfer in the world which would have been unthinkable, 20, 30 years before. the sea change really came through personal achievement as much as anything else. >> absolutely. >> did you feel that? >> i did. absolutely. and i am proud of it. and i am just praying that we continue to grow. and people continue to see the right things in people. >> what did your parents say after you performed at the inauguration? >> oh, my mom cried forever. and i did, too. it was a beautiful night. and, like i said, definitely the most proud moment for her and for myself. >> the president, what did he say? did you talk to them? >> i did not speak to them. i wish i had it like that. but i've seen them years later. >> i've heard and you can clear up this rumor. this is a brilliant rumor, even if it's not true. if it's not true, maybe just pretend. i've heard that jay-z has the president on the speed dial of his cell phone. is this true? >> i don't know. >> that means it is. >> no, it's not true. they are amazing. they are wonderful. and i have actually, i just worked with the first lady with the let's move initiative. and it was so beautiful. >> because she's a remarkable woman. >> she is. >> whatever side you are on the political divide, whatever your view of how he's doing as president, michelle obama has barely put a foot wrong and is a remarkable role model, i think. >> she is. and she cares so much. and what she did, her whole idea was so brilliant because the boys and girls were practicing the choreography, not even realizing they were taking care of their bodies and moving around. and im so happy she asked me to be a part of that. >> how do you think he's doing as president. >> i think he's doing a great job. i think he's fantastic. i think he needs another term. he needs more time, and i think with the time he has, he's incredible. >> will you campaign for him? >> absolutely. >> on the stump doing your bit? >> absolutely. i did the first time and i will again. >> but you must have met him now. >> no, i've met him. they are amazing. they are so gracious. >> he has gotten around to thanking you? >> yes, of course. and we performed. i performed at the white house and they were so gracious. they not only spoke to me. they spent time with every single member of my band and they are just the epitome of class and heart. it's beautiful. >> americaase. everybody knows that when you are there. economically, very, very tough conditions. obviously, wars going on as well. a lot of drain on resource. what do you think? when you look at america now, what do you think america needs to get itself back on its feet properly? >> well, i think we're getting there. i think we need -- we need obama. and he's doing his job. and we just have to believe in him and trust our president. >> what do you think about what i detected a slight lack of confidence in america. you are an incredibly confident american businesswoman. what advice do you give to people? maybe they've lost their jobs. maybe they are going through difficulty. what advice do you give them as someone who came from no money to build this empire through hard work. what do you say to them? >> i would say to continue to work hard and don't give up on your goals. and i know, for me, like i said, i grew up watching my family struggle and i grew up with family that was successful but not

america's cup, and where the will be long-term improvements done by the event authority or short-term improvements, sites that might become better because they're touched by the america's cup. it is to create a district on these properties. we have gone to the state legislature to say that we've elected capture the ifb's districts. specifically, this is based on the misalignment of local investment and state-projected tax gains, based on the america's cup event in 2013. the report is expected to invest $55 million minimum of improvement for port properties. this will have the effect of having the port authority make those investments that offer long-term development rent credit to that effect. essentially it will be local investment. the city is also signed up to cover $32 million of the cost raised by the america's cup organizing committee or local taxes. what has been rejected is the $61 million of state revenue from the state from income taxes, sales taxes, etcetera, from the economic activity in 2013. based on those conditions, we have asked through the mechanism similar to what we did at pier 70 last year, that the city and port would be able to capture more of the revenue, the tax increment revenue through this mechanism. currently, we only have the ability to capture sixty-five cents of every tax increment dollar. it is generated through new development. in this district, that would raise it from 65 to ninety cents of every

america. god bless america. >> reporter: let me put this in a little bit of perspective here. knock becomes the sixth state to legalize same sex marriage. but the population in new york is so populous that it would affect double the amount of people living in states that live under same sex marriage laws. proponents of the bill say that effectively that this is long overdue. it was a historic moment providing people with equal rights in terms of taxation, hospital visitation rights, employer health care, all sorts of rights that oftentimes married couples take for granted. detractors, critics of the bill say there may be unintended consequences, something that forced lawmakers to go into several extra days after the session ended on monday to try to figure out an amendment to protect those religious institutions. fred? >> all right, thanks so much, david. appreciate that. >>> new york is the sixth state to legalize same sex marriage. it joins massachusetts, connecticut, iowa, vermont, new hampshire, the district of columbia allows same sex marriage also. >>> how about this? better than riding in a helicopter or a role coaster or even a speedboat, taking a spin in a stock car on one of nascar's most prized motor speedways, face to face with two of nascar's star drivers including jason leffler. whose idea was this? i'm actually really excited and i know i'm in great hands with jason here. if i have a first time race car experience, this is the way to go. we're in a richard petty nascar experience vehicle, so, here we go. let her rip. >> the butterflies didn't last long. face to face with leffler and fellow nascar driver joey logano, straight ahead. on the new blackberry playbook? ♪ flash! ah-ahh!

america goes to war, america needs to win. guest: with the elimination of osama bin laden, america achieved a great win. host: is it enough? guest: is it enough? america will not win until we becomergy independent here at home. our dependence on petroleum has created convoluted relationships in the united states all across the world where we have not regimes in place that are in charge of the oil in those countries. this is not a position that i believe the united states should be in good energy independence has to be at the top of our goals from a strategic standpoint. i think we are achieving some success there. if you go to the marine corps website and you look at their projected energy independent goals by 2025, we have really been proud of the marine corps and navy. i thought the air force would have led this because of their vast consumption of oil. they are paying $400 per gallon of gasoline delivered to the front in afghanistan. it comes out of their budget. a $400 a gallon. imagine what it takes to supply our front. we have to first make sure that our troops are fully supplied, but now the military sees it in its self interest to adjust the energy independence equation.

america going? and we have something called the pulse of equaly poll. and we've seen that in the last five years america has... about 20% of americans, one in five voters, have become more accepting of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people. and by accepting i mean some of them may have been very, very anti gay, and now are more fair minded on it, but maybe, you know, not necessarily supportive of equal marriage protections for gay people. but some of them might have been somewhere in the middle, and have come even closer. and the reasons for this are many. the mostmpactful w to help america understand, as you say, is knowing somebody. you sort of imply, "well, everybody knows somebody." actually, not everybody. about 75% of americans know somebody who's gay or lesbian, bisexual or transgender. however, knowing them, very impactful, but isn't as impactful if the folks who are gay don't actually talk about it. and so being out... being out, and in particular being out and talking about the ways in which you're less equal. about 70% of america thinks it's illegal to fire somebody in the workplace because they're gay, but it's only illegal in 21 states. 29 states you can get fired. if america would understand that... >> hinojosa: so let's just be clear, just so we can make it clear. so that means that, for example, i'm your boss, and in 29 states, i suddenly say, "you know what? i don't like the fact that jarrett made a nice compliment to a fellow coworker who's a man. therefore i can fire jarrett"? >> well, that can be sexual harassment, so let's be clear about that. >> hin

america because they are the ones that create 70% of all the net new jobs in america. that's why regulations become so essential and an imperative. the total cost of regulation is at $1.7 trillion. that's with a "t." trillion dollars. and small firms with fewer than 20 employees bear a disproportionate burden in terms of those costs, 10,585 per employee, 36% higher than the regulatory costs confronting larger firms. now, i know some people like to dispute numbers and said that's not really a true number. oh, really? just add them up. just add them up. there was a study that was done by crane and crane. they added the estimated cost of four categories or types of regulations: economic regulations $1.2 trillion. environmental regulations $281 billion. task kpwhraoeupbs $160 billion. regulations involving occupational safety, health and homeland security, $75 billion. some studies omit independent agencies, omit the internal revenue service and the calculation in cost of regulations. you ask the small business or any business in america about that. the i.r.s. doesn't cost in terms of regulations. of course they do. you have to include all agencies of government that have an impact directly on small business or any business in america. the point is, mr. president, the principal impediment to job creation in this country is a broken regulatory system. we have repeatedly talked about it. it is a top priority for small business community across america. every major organization that is a key voice for small businesses echoes this repeatedly. federal regulations has placed a tremendous burden. i know my colleagues and i understand, some of us understand the critical nature of all of this. we've heard the message loud and khraoefrplt and even the president, interestingly enough, started issuing an executive order in january to begin the process of reviewing federal regulations, saying the need -- and i quote him -- unnecessary paperwork requirements that waste time and money. in four months the administration's preliminary
