I hope the Navy is able to keep the tradition of naming a major capital ship "Enterprise". One of the things I found appealing about the Star Trek series, especially the last one aptly named Enterprise, was that there was this connection in a far future world with this proud tradition of naming ships, even star ships, Enterprise.

Unfortunately in our politically correct world we now are naming navy ships after Caesar Chavez. Under Obama I fear our once proud navy will be reduced to a few dilapidated frigates bearing names like Chairman Mao and Gertrude Stein

I read today that the first opportunity for a new one they can name Enterprise is 2025. The next two aircraft carriers will be the Gerald Ford and another John F. Kennedy.
