I'm going to try a little harder than my earlier answer, "it's an American thing".
No it's not. It's founder mythology whose manifestations also appear in the form of veneration of the "eternal president" Kim Il Song, and of Vladmir Lenin. It is a substitute for long organic history history in giving the national polity legitamacy. It's a tool to overawe the gullible.
