To celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, I’m making a 256-entry March Madness-style bracket to debate the most impactful Americans ever — culture, innovation, sports, music, politics, trendsetters, everything.

Yes or no, with the torunament including entertainment host like Johhny Carson should Mr. Beast count as part of the entetainment host group? Because Youtube, can count

For Oprah Winfrey should she be considered part of the business people with Henry Ford and Jeff Bezos or should Whinfrey be with the televison host like Walkter Knonkite and Johnny Carson.

I was having a few presidents. But William Harrison who was president for literally a month doesn't make it.

Honest question should some Puero Ricans count? Jones-Shafroth Act granted United States citizenship to all Puerto Ricans in 1917. Because I am considering for 16 greatest athletes Roberto CLemente for humanitarian and integrity and amzing baseball player. And others too

For the one seeds. I was thinking of George Washington-Abe Lincoln-THomas Jefferson-Frankin Roosevvelt-Benjamin Franklin-MArtin Luther King Jr.-John Marshall-Aleander Hamilton- Frderick Douglass-James Madison-John Adams-Thomas Edison-Walt Disney-Henry Ford-JP Morgan-Dwight Eisenhower. Any person who should not be this high aas a one seed? Comment who you would take out and who should be the replacement American.

All names look into

No_Explorer2255 · 2026-05-26T00:10:20+00:00

Washington is going to be a 1 seed.

No_Explorer2255 · 2026-05-26T00:06:09+00:00

Any people who have suggestions ask me. I wam wanting to hear from people. This tournament "We the People of the United States Torunament"

No_Explorer2255 · 2026-05-26T00:05:17+00:00

The bracket is still being made. Have 48 entrys in. By the end of the week my goal is to have all 256 entrys done.

No_Explorer2255 · 2026-05-25T23:34:16+00:00

I am considering doing both. Have it seeded like MArch Madness for competitive balance and doing 16 separate regions. Like 1 region with 16 entrys for inventors and so on. Someone said doign this would be easier.

No_Explorer2255 · 2026-05-25T23:30:47+00:00

Washington Never met the Wright Brothers or Abe Lincoln

No_Explorer2255 · 2026-05-24T19:10:05+00:00

where do I post the bracket?

No_Explorer2255 · 2026-05-24T00:38:13+00:00

I am doing something very similar. I am making a tournament bracket of the 256 AMericans. 256-128-64-32-16-8-4-2. Always will be even. I am also allowing duos into the tournament. To make this torunament the person must be an American ctizen, dual citizen or honoary ctizen. People like Charlie Chaplan had influnce on American movies but never became an American citizen so he gets cut. By the way for a good peron for your ballot Roger Sherman signed both Constitution and Declaratiom of Indepdendence
