Hey guys in desperate need of help hunting down clips of the United States of America being represented in anime either in people, places or things. Its for an AMV I working on. I need a lot but I already got Eden of the East and Kekkai Sensen.

Special thanks will go out to someone that shows me Trump thumbs up, or Obama crying. That would serve my purposes greatly.

Aside from being a great anime, this has a couple scenes where diplomats and soldiers from America are negotiating/planning subterfuge in Japan.

Blood+ has scenes where stand-ins for Donald Rumsfeld and Condolezza Rice connive with the show's non-human antagonists in an effort to take over the planet. It's somewhere in the thirties I believe.

Baby Steps had a few episodes in the beginning of the second season where the main character is at a tennis training camping in Florida.

Lupin the III: episode 0 - First Contact takes place in New York.

Actually I think there are quite a few episodes that take place in the US for Lupin the III.

The Steins;Gate OVA took place in America
I think Gangsta took place in America
Also if you want to go really old there was this OVA called 'Mad Bull 34" which took place in New York.

Also Uchuu Kyoudai spends a lot of time in the US. Some of the scenes made me laugh like when Mutta comes to Houston to visit his brother at NASA. Mutta takes a bus in from the airport to meet his brother Hibito who rode in on a bicycle. Eventually they end up at the Johnson Space Center. If you've ever been to Houston you know that such travels would be absurdly difficult. The JSC itself is some twenty miles south of Houston. Hibito owns a car (a Corvette Stingray of course) but didn't use it to pick up his brother?

(Hibito's Stingray appears in the second OP, in this case around two minutes in: http://www.crunchyroll.com/space-brothers/episode-30-dog-old-man-and-alexander-610585)

Also there are a number of hilarious scenes at a Texas roadhouse restaurant.

Itazura na Kiss -- Ep. 15 takes place in Hawaii.
Rainbow -- Some scenes with American MP's and a base commander in the last half of the series as well as boxing matches on a US base.
Girls und Panzer -- Shots of US tanks. Playing "Battle Hymn of the Republic" & the "US Field Artillery March". Shots of Saunder's school ship modelled after Nimitz class carrier.
Girls und Panzer der Film -- Lots of M26 Pershing tanks, an M24 Chaffee, a T28 tank destroyer. My favorite are some amazing clips of a C-5M Super Galaxy picking up and dropping off tanks.

KaleidoStar takes place mostly in the US. Candy Candy and Chrono Crusade does as well, but mostly in the past. Jojo's Bizzare Adventures, around episode 11 does too, in the past. In Full Moon Wo Shagashite , Mitsuki and her companions go to the US, and end up in Nevada, around episode 41 or so.
Gunsmith Cats takes place in Chicago as well, I believe, that's a 3 episode OVA.

The manga Cipher takes place in America. The anime OVA of it is an uncomfortable and hilarious mish-mash of attempting to be as American as possible. And as 80s as possible. Seriously, I have read the manga, it's good, but the anime still confuses the hell out of me. It's not like it follows any part of the manga, it's just a bunch of 80s America.

I also forgot to mention Red Garden which takes place in New York City.

Baccano! takes place in Prohibition America, but I get the sense you're looking for contemporary material.
