For no reason whatsoever, I've been thinking somewhat hard on this question. Maybe it's because I'm really bored at work. Anyways, the first person I thought of was Bruce Lee. The only thing is, this thread is about American heroes. Bruce Lee, is of course Chinese (though an American citizen). I figured I should keep to those who were strictly born in the USA.
So, I go on to ask myself, what makes a hero? I guess there are 2 categories of heroes that I can think of. The first is what most people here have thought of - a man/woman who has done something huge for this country. The other was someone who people idolize. I could pick one from each category, but that's no fun. In the end, I would pick someone that people idolize - Michael Jordan. I pick him because he is someone that America's youth can learn a lot from. He makes many of them strive to be better at not only basketball (for those inclined), but also whatever else they want to be good at.
...Yay work.
