Is America Cool?


Richard Roth asks some bar-going Brits how they feel about the outcome of the American election.

Well, you know Italy and France have food and fashion, the British have the royals and the Beatles, but the American has got a new president-elect and a lot of the buzz on this side of the ocean is that's cool.
Here in the country that was briefly called cool Britannia not so long ago,
we are hearing some new compliments for the former colony
It makes America a better place.
Though wherever the Brits lift a glass of a pang,there is someone with another point of view, cautious about getting too much credit to American voters.
Indeed, I see voted for the last guy, I see voted for the guy before, I see voted for the guy before.
If America's image is changing, it's still a matter of degree.
I'm talking hot...
It’s not hot in my mind, it isn't a hot change, it might be a change on the way, but certainly not there yet.

America is now cool, isn't it? Cool, her unconvinced, but don't consider that the final word.
You like our movies,
We do.
You like our music,
We do.
Tonight you like our politics?
I think there's a lot hot thing now,everybody is talking about it, so America is the thing at the moment of the moment. Definitely, definitely cool.
