It's set in the future, right? Twenty years ago, it would've been just as funny to suggest naming ships after LBJ or Jerry Ford, but here we are.

Skyfall would have been 15 minutes long if James Bond carried either a pocket knife, slightly more ammo for his pistol, or a pistol chambered in a decent caliber with usable sights

Funny, thing the Navy is requesting imput on naming the next eight ships of the Gerald Ford class, and apparently, the concencus they are getting is for great battles of the Revolutionary War/WWII carriers with a distinct move away from Presidents.

Even though I think the current crop of Nimitz names are pretty good, with possible exception to Carl Vinson and John C Stennis, but I like both of them better than a nuclear powered USS John F Kennedy or the possibility of a USS William Jefferson Clinton or USS Barack Hussein Obama.

I always thought the English named thier ships so much better than we did.

End of Evangelion was a complete mindfuck.

This is almost as stupid as the TV show Terra where in the future, they had Obama's face one dollar bills.

I know there's a movement to name CVN-80 the Enterprise. Frankly, I can't think of one argument why it shouldn't be done.

It should, considering the only other ship that is called the Enterprise is to be decommissioned next year
