访谈录 2008-11-16&11-17 英伦百姓品评美国大选

（单词翻译）

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 briefly¹ called cool Britannia not so long ago,
we are hearing some new compliments for the former colony
It makes, makes America a better place.
Though wherever the Brits lift a glass or pipe, there is someone with another point of view, cautious about getting too much credit to American voters.
Indeed, as I’ve voted for the last guy as I voted for the guy before, as I 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? Call,  her unconvinced, but don't consider that the final word.
You like our movies,
We do.
You like our music,
We do.
So you like our politics?
I think they’re a lot healthier now, everybody is talking about it, so America is the thing of the moment at the moment. And definitely, definitely cool.
