I would definitely vote for Atticus Finch. I had never read the book, To Kill a Mockingbird, until last year and truly enjoyed it. I enjoyed the idea that Atticus was an outsider because of the way he protected the rights of man and that there was no definition to the type of man he protected. Atticus would be one who would fight for what’s right. VOTE 2008

Monica,
Make sure you visit HPB site so you can vote for Atticus! To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my favorites.
