Yes, but also because he was a young man who was able to overcome a handicap and turn it into something great. My heros are people like that. People like Scott Hamilton and Wilma Rudolph, who overcame terrible childhood illnesses to become Olympic champions. People who fight city hall, because sometimes city hall is wrong. Rosa Parks is a good example. People who give their talents to help other people, like Jimmy Carter, Paul Newman, Morris Dees, and Dolly Parton.

If I was asked to give a definition of a Hero, it would have to be any person who has inspired me to do great things. Sometimes it's because they have done great things themselves, and sometimes it's because they have not done great things and they want me to rise above them.
