If Mount Rushmore featured four historically significant Americans who had never been President, these are the four Americans I would like to see carved into a mountain.

Mount Rushmore is one of my favorite places to visit in the United States. Sitting on a rock in the Black Hills of South Dakota, the giant sculpture features the faces of four historically significant Americans: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. All four are American Presidents, of course.
But before it was sculpted in the 1920s and 1930s, some suggested that it should feature historically significant Americans who WEREN’T Presidents. This got me thinking, if it DID feature non-Presidents, which four Americans would I pick?

On second thought, since the Black Hills were stolen from the Lakota Sioux, perhaps Crazy Horse ought to be up there instead of John Marshall.
Who are your four?
Hillary Clinton Benjamin Franklin Keir Starmer and Michael Jackson
Not Alexander Hamilton? 🙁
Gaaaaaaay
Ronald McDonald would be good🙂
I am a Fan and a South Dakotan! I’m very impressed how you shot and edited this Video. You got Great Photography on this Heavily Photographed Monument and made a Great Side-point for Audience Participation!
Thank You!
Patrick Wilson, Rivers Cuomo, Matt Sharp and Brian Bell. Perfect for viewing on a sunny day with no clouds.
Had a poster in the early 90’s that said Mt. Dunkmore and it had Jordan Barkley David Robinson and Scottie Pippen. I thought it was the coolest
John Marshall out, and John Brown in
Chief Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, White Cloud and Geronimo.
Pim, Charlie, Alan, Glep.

It should be George Floyd
I will chose alexander Hamilton, Martin Luther King, Benjamin Franklin, Henry clay(my opinion)
Lin Manuel Miranda dressed as Alexander Hamilton
Arnold Schwarzenegger , Ronnie Coleman , Lee Haney , Jay Cutler
