US has many good things, including my son. But "cool" would never be the word I'd choose to describe it. In general, it's the "anti cool" by definition, it has some cool places but nowhere close to be the majority, not even 1%. In terms of "coolness", if you're comparing US to Brazil.... well, I take you've never visited Brazil or your definition of "cool" is really particular
