Btw, Sweden is big enough to have it just as hard as the US to get a standardized accent.

But I'm saying there already is a standardized American accent, as well as an English accent - the 'default' accents. And those are the accents that you will hear from a language teacher or in a spoken text book and it's what actors and TV people usually strive for.

There is no default United States accent.

I know there isn't an official one, but when the OP said "By american accent I mean the Midwestern columbus ohio middle class type" he tried to choose one that represents American accent "best" to a foreigner.
