Cliff Claven, sitting in his postal uniform at the neighborhood bar was not quite the best public image. And no one voted for Mr. Wilson, Dennis the Menace's friend. Wilson was a retired letter carrier, but apparently not a "beloved" character. The Aliens in "Men in Black" were famously portrayed as faithful postal workers. Tommy Lee Jones said this, "Just about everybody who works in a Post Office is an alien." And Mr. McFeeley had a certain "creep" factor about him, so no surprises about his votes. Seinfeld's Newman was a slacker with a bad attidude. Kevin Costner's character was faithful and saw the value of mail communication. Of course, he also led a revolution -- off the clock, of course.
