England has that British accent. Scotland has that Sean Connery thing going. Spain gives us Antonio Banderas.

Except for James Earl Jones, Morgan Freedman, Franklin Roosevelt, John, Bobby or Ted Kennedy, Orson Wells, William ?F Buckley, Paul Harvey, Sam Ervin, Ronald Reagan, Garner Ted Armstrong, etc. If you want to make the list a bit more down home you could throw in Larry the Cable Guy.
