Why do we have Columbus day and not Amerigo Vespucci day?

The thing is: I don't know much about Amerigo aside from him visiting America.

lol, but why do we teach so much about Columbus (or in fact Cristóbal Colón)? He was a fucking useless twat. He was utterly hopeless at his job, a tyrannical religious nutter, greedy and never did touch U.S. soil.
