Face it people any former US President that served in the US Military in the last 50 years needs to have a ship named after him. He may have made some poor choices as an elected official but he volunteered to defend his nation at one point (and volunteered for one of the most dangorous duties in the USN), and he won the Nobel Prize and spends his remaining days building homes for the poor. I think that makes up for four years of mediocre leadership. They named SSN 23 for the man not the office.

Think of it this way if you had to invite one living former (or current) US President over for a weekend BBQ who would you pick? (... ya know that would make a good poll...) :hmm:
