I'm not sure that's an accurate statement. More accurate would be to say that certain regions of the United States (for example, the Northeast) tend to vote liberal, whereas other parts of the country (for example, the Deep South) tend to vote conservative. And while Americans are generally moderate on some issues, there is quite a divide between religious conservatives (especially Christian conservatives) and Americans who consider themselves not very religious. So, yes, you can find plenty of liberals in America (the term for where they live is "blue states"); but you can also find plenty of conservatives (who tend to live in what is called "red states").

Americans are actually not so conservative as they are liberal. Most of the American press is liberal. And also, America's president is a liberal democrat.
