Actress Patricia Heaton is a rare conservative in Hollywood, and she made her suggestion for Time person of the year. The suggestion has now gone viral.
According to Fox News:
Patricia Heaton made her own suggestion on social media after TIME’s Person of the Year announced its shortlist on Monday night, offering up actor and humanitarian Gary Sinise.
“Hey @TIME , why isn’t @GarySinise ever on the Person of the Year list? Hey @TheAcademy, why isn’t he ever picked for the #jeanhersholt humanitarian award? He raises $30M a year to build homes for wounded vets along with his #goldstarfamily support. Retweet!” the “Everybody Loves Raymond” actress wrote in a tweet.
Heaton’s choice was apparently well-received online — with more than 30,000 people sharing her opinion.

The Emmy Award-winning actor founded the Gary Sinise Foundation in 2011. The nonprofit supports veterans, first responders and their family members with a variety of programs.
Sinise has made his mission all about helping veterans and their families, but apparently, that is not noteworthy enough for the left-leaning media.
