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.

Do you contact the at-fault person's insurance or does your agent and if your insurance pays for your damages does his have to pay the deductible?

Quite often, when the other carrier has accepted liability but you have had your damages taken care of by your own carrier, the at-fault carrier will agree to send you your deductible. Any of you can call the at-fault carrier and request this, though they'll need proof from your own carrier as to what the deductible is. If, however, there's a liability dispute between your two carriers, you'll have to wait until your carrier subrogates and/or arbitrates the other carrier. All this means is that your carrier will ask for their money back, including your deductible, and if the other carrier declines, your carrier will initiate arbitration. Your carrier may or may not win; if they do, they get their money back and can send you your deductible.
