I think they would be all the traits you could use to describe Atticus - loyal, just, kind, fair, independent, hard working, a good father, caring, dignified, accepting, non-judgmental, tolerant, understanding, supportive, generous, giving, respectful, etc.  Those would be the attributes of the ideal American character.
