No need to worry. Clinton will never get an aircraft carrier named after him/her. The Nimitz class is named after people with significant contribution to the navy. Bush Jr. might get one (CVN79).

Personally, I like most of the names the RN give to their warships. The I-class in particular.

Indomitable
Invincible
Illustrious
Irresistible
Implacable
Indefatigable
Inflexible
