The new America looks very different from the old one.


“Think America is split 50/50 between this stereotyped old America and more socially liberal new America? Think again. American values are shifting and shifting fast. In the new America the split is much closer to a 60/40.Old America is being left behind.”

The quotation above was recently taken on October 12th 2012, written on an American news page by reporter Nick Pecorelli following campaigns in Miami. The quote above shows that America is developing and improving each year stressing that the ‘old America is being left behind’ and we are to see a ‘socially liberal new America’.

The report emphasises the ‘New America’ campaign and how they can make their society ‘better’ and ‘fairer’ which is vastly different from their previous views on which they focused on wealth. In order to be successful they need to concentrate on more than the economy alone and Pecorelli states that for a better America, they have to be open to social Liberalism and although they still own prosperity they can also find success in ‘fairness.’

This is a contemporary example of the new and exceptional America that De Crevecoeur has expressed, showing that America have not changed and are still looking to improve “because the new America looks very different from the old one.”
