Its successor, the so far unnamed CVN-77, will be delivered in early 2008

Any suggestions? USS Trade Center?

What about the USS James K. Polk. Polk was one of the most succesful presidents who ever served. During his term the US annexed Texas, fought and won the US-Mexican War, and added the territories which are now the states of California, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado. A ship named for President Polk is not a ship to be messed with.

USS Lewis B. Puller

or

USS Ira Hayes

Polk and Pierce. That's my favorite name for a carrier.

I'll second that notion. Here's to the "USS James K. Polk". Thats a great name, a great president to remember. Let's put his name on a carrier!

Isn´t the next carrier to be named USS George Bush ?
