The 4 are George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt. They are the 1st, 3rd, 16th, and 26th Presidents of the US.

(From left to right as viewed, they are Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt, and Lincoln.)

All four of the president's faces on Mount Rushmore are 60 feet tall from the top of the head to the bottom of the chin.

They were chosen to represent the founding, expansion, preservation, and world prominence of the US:

George Washington, (1st president) led the early colonial army in the American Revolutionary War to win independence from Great Britain. Because of his importance and his role in creating the United States, Washington is the most prominent figure on the mountain. (1732-1799)

Thomas Jefferson, (3rd president) he was the author of the Declaration of Independence, a document which inspires democracies around the world. He also purchased the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803 which doubled the size of our country, adding all or part of fifteen present-day states. (1743-1826)

Theodore Roosevelt, (26th president) provided leadership when America experienced rapid economic growth as it entered the 20th Century. He was instrumental in negotiating the construction of the Panama Canal, linking the east and the west. He was known as the "trust buster" for his work to end large corporate monopolies and ensure the rights of the common working man. He is also the leading land conservationist in world history, setting aside over 230 million acres for conservation purposes. (1858-1919)

Abraham Lincoln, (16th president) held the nation together during its greatest trial, the Civil War. Lincoln believed his most sacred duty was the preservation of the union. His efforts put an end to slavery. (1809-1865).
