    A British accent will get you far in America. Always has. (I suspect it's especially true today within conservatism.)

        There is a joke in Presbyterian circles that a ministerial candidate with a Scottish accent can add 20% to his salary up front. :)

        It may be double this in Reformed Baptist circles.

        Anglophilia is still mighty strong in the US.

        Yes but the UK isn't exactly sending their best. Seriously, Nigel Farage?

        Not only in America. When I was living in Asia, met lots of Brits. Nice folks for the most part. For some reason, their accent and delivery lends a kind of authority to everything they say. It took me a while to learn to discount the accent and treat them like everybody else.

        How about a British accent and a phony PhD? Probably a job at the WH?

        I've noticed Eastern European is far less helpful.

        Conservatism has turned into radicalism, so, I'm not sure that's still true.

        Add a dash of Balkan or Slav modulations and you could be an advisor to POTUS
