This makes absolutely no sense because all you are saying is it's "miles ahead."  What is miles ahead?  There's absolutely no context to what you're judging with.

This my opinion. I think Adventure time and Regular show ( two examples) are miles ahead of these cartoons.Imagination, Art design, story, etc. Voices! Originality!

I have seen plenty of Anime to realize I am not missing anything by not seeing anymore. I still enjoy them, but nothing is like watching American cartoons. Did I love Pokemon and DBZ growing up? Yes. Was any of it mind blowing? No. Is Bleach mind blowing? No. Akira? No. Is it a cult classic? Yes.

But so is Mighty Max and many others. Again, I can name twice as many great American cartoons to anyone here I bet. That should be proof enough.

I haven't seen adventure time, but I have seen Regular Show, and I can't see how story, voices, and originality are better in that cartoon than anime.  You clearly haven't seen enough anime if you think that.  

Adventure Time, I would say, looks like it has a good story, is original, has a lot of imagination, and all that.  However, Adventure Time is an exceptional cartoon and is by no means a standard.  There are also exceptional anime.  

edit: 
Watch this trailer and tell me how this lacks all 5 of the qualifications you listed in comparison to American cartoons?
