Presupposes no modern-day "Revolt of the Admirals," not to mention a large number among the lower ranks, the retired / former servicemember communities, and all those folks who were absolutely disgusted by Willie's low character. Clinton, along with Richard Nixon (and possibly Lyndon Johnson) are held in low enough regard that it is highly unlikely any USN ship, let alone a CV, will ever be named for one of them in the foreseeable future.

It's academic anyway. CVN-78 is already "spoken for," as the USS GERALD R. FORD - the earnest but likely futile efforts by some to name her otherwise notwithstanding.



Wouldn't it be ironic sort of if the CVN-78 sailed into the Med and
the Jooz attacked it like they did the USS LIBERTY?..........and the
President ordered everyone to not come to their aid?









Besides, driving a FORD or a LINCOLN has considerably better cachet than driving a CLINTON. g

If Shrillary becomes president there won't be any more carriers... She's
more likely to disband the armed forces and surrender to China or Iran.
Shrillary hates the armed forces with a vengeance...

Oh, God No......
Hopefully We will ditch the current Political grandizement & get back to
True Naval Names. Battles & ships of old.

Would that we could. Only trouble is that "battles & ships of old" don't appropriate ship construction funds, while politicians do.
