Why is "2.718" not as popular as "3.1416"?

I mean "3.1416" get its own day and is celebrated, but nothing for "2.718"?

The Clinton Hate Algorithm

START --> Hate the Clintons
STEP 1 --> Scan the media for any hint of impropriety
STEP 2 --> Investigate the impropriety
STEP 3 --> If the investigation turns up nothing, keep investigating
STEP 4 --> Use the fact of an investigation to cast aspersion onto Clinton even though the investigation found nothing
STEP 5 --> Repeat STEPS 3 and 4
STEP 6 --> When repeated investigations fail, find some other tangential impropriety to investigate
STEP 7 --> Repeat STEPS 2 through 4
STEP 8 --> When all of the investigations finally exhaust themselves, quietly report that nothing was found
END --> Repeat the entire loop

If you're polling at 0% or 1% or 2%, wouldn't you get out of the race at this point?
