We grew up, I grew up hearing that America was number 1, and I never questioned that.

I was like, "We are number 1, damn it, I'll kill anyone who says we aren't!"

But I wonder what kids today think.

So, we sent a camera crew out into the street to ask them, "What is the best country in the world?"

And this is what the kids had to say.

What is the best country in the world?

Hmm... I don't know!

What do you think the best country in the world is?

Umm...

Chicago?

What do you think the best country in the world is?

Uh... I think it's where we are now.

Why do you think that this is the best country in the world?

Because I just love this world.

What do you think is the best country?

Paris?

France?

You think France is the best country? How come?

Umm...

Because there's usually a lot of, like, cute poodles there, and I like poodles.

What do you think the best country in the world is?

New York.

Why is New York the best country in the world?

Because you can ice skate.

What other countries have you been to?

Disneyland.

Did you know that kids in Switzerland get to spend all their days in "Swiznyland",

which is just like Disneyland, and they don't have to go to school?

Yes!

You know that?

So, doesn't that make you want to move there?

No.

It doesn't?

I mean, yes!

What do you think the greatest country in the world is?

America.

Why?

Because of the fun beaches and... yeah.

And what about North Korea?

There they give everybody a free haircut and a rocket.

No.

You wouldn't want to live there?

No.

Why not?

Because what if they do bad haircuts?

If you could live in any country, where would you want to live?

California, so, here.

And... Have you ever been to Australia?

No.

Do you know there that each kid gets their own koala bear?

Really?

Mm-hmm. And they don't have to do homework ever.

Really!?

Yes.

I want a koala bear!

What do you think the best country in the world is?

Umm... I guess Japan.

How come?

Because they have a very beautiful palace.

Where's the palace?

It's kind of the... right at the streets?

And who lives in the palace?

Um, a king and a queen?

And where did you learn about it?

Um, I guess I just thought about it.

You made it up?

Uh-huh.

So you didn't really learn about it anywhere?

Uh-uh.

No.

Have you ever been to any other country?

Uh-uh.

No?

But I've been to Sacramento.

Can you name five countries?

America...

California...

Michigan...

And...

China.

One more.

Um...

Yogurtland.
