Reccommended Dudes

[SirNels]

Sufi Master and Poet Rumi
Taoist Master Chuang Tzu
Taoist and Buddhist Hero The Monkey King
Steven Hyde from that 70's Show. He would also be a great role-model for teenage Dudeists.
Al Bundy from Married With Children.
Charlie Sheen. Even though he's done some questionable things, he has always accepted himself for who he is, he has always stayed true to himself.
Earl Hickey from My Name is Earl.
Jimi Hendrix
Bill Murray
Sikh founder Guru Nanak Dev
Albert Einstein
Nostradamus "Bull" Shannon, from Night Court. He let people think that he was 'slow in the head' but that hid his kind heart, his high intellect, his vast financial fortune and he was always there when you needed him.
Angus MacGuyver whose most powerful weapon was his mind.
Francis of Assisi
Benny Hill, England's greatest comedian and ladies man.
Harry Solomon from 3rd Rock From the Sun. He may have appeared to be dim-witted but he was always laid back and easy going. He was at one with his Dudeness.

Lot of good suggestions.
Not sure about Jimi Hendrix. He's cool and all but most people don't get that he was pro war during Vietnam.

A random blog post that I nicked instead of digging up the stuff.

More mundane, but no less relevant, was Hendrix's attitude towards the war. While people presume "Star Spangled Banner" to be defiantly anti-war, it is no such thing; such a notion limits the scope of the piece. Friends were often surprised by Hendrix's pro-war stance on Vietnam. Eric Burdon recalled that when Hendrix arrived in England he spoke fervently about the need for the United States to subdue Chinese Communism before it overtook the world. It is important to remember that Hendrix had been on both sides of the fence, experiencing attitudes toward the war as diametrically opposed to one another as could be. It's not hard to imagine Hendrix thinking less about the hippies congregated at Woodstock than his old friends from the 101st Airborne (many of whom went straight from Fort Campbell to the jungles overseas to witness combat first-hand) when performing the song. At the same time, Hendrix possessed a pacifistic nature that certainly contributed to the work's radiant objectivity
