Do you have a "disable" option? That will stop them running or storing data (I'd clear data before disabling: it used to do that automatically, but some android versions no longer do so), will remove them from your app drawer, and be functionally equivalent to uninstalling.
The problem is that the pre-installed software is in a different storage partition to the stuff you install, and one you don't have write access to. That is why you cannot uninstall it. But since it is in a different partition you also would not be able to use any of the space that would be freed in that partition if you did install it, which is why disabling is as good as uninstalling in practice.
However sometimes pre-installed junk also lacks a disable option. Really the only apps that should have neither "uninstall" or "disable" are ones that are genuinely vital, but sometimes carriers decide to prevent you disabling junk that someone has paid them to install, even though it is absolutely unnecessary (and not just carriers: I've known Samsung do it on a non-carrier device I owned).
If you don't have either "uninstall" or "disable" then you can do nothing unless you can root the phone (i.e. modify the system software to allow you to gain administrator access: "root" is the name of the linux admin account, hence this process is called "rooting"). US Samsungs tend to be very locked-down, so I don't know whether that will actually be possible. If you research this it's important to know that US handsets are different from "global"/"international" models, and you need to ensure that any methods you use or software you install is intended for the US model. Unfortunately as I am not American I have no personal experience of rooting these devices, and don't know whether it's possible for this model.
