Why isn't there USS Richard Nixon Nuclear Air Craft Carrier in the Fleet did President Obama deny the request of the family?
First, there is a tendency to blame whoever the president is when discussing any decision someone in the public doesn't like; so, if an aircraft carrier was not yet named after Richard Nixon, then it must be President Obama's fault (or if the question had been raised during President Bush's administration, then it must have been he who snubbed Mr. Nixon). However, the reality of naming ships is much more complex. Generally, the process is not political, although perhaps it seems that way sometimes. The decision is made by the Secretary of the Navy. As of this time, Ray Mabus (the current secretary) has not chosen Mr. Nixon. But there is no evidence President Obama has told anyone in the Navy to ignore Mr. Nixon. There may come a time when the Navy decides to name an aircraft carrier after him, since there has long been a custom of naming them after presidents. But not all presidents have had aircraft carriers named after them, and up to this point, Mr. Nixon's name has not been selected.
