[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is it named after John Foster Dulles, why not name it after George Washington, Lincoln, Obama or even John Warner???? I don't like the name at all.[/quote] Naming it after GW would have (and still would) caused confusion with DCA. There is now at least one airport that incorporates the name of Abe Lincoln — and a few other with a city name of Lincoln. I’m a firm believer in generally not naming something after someone until 50+ years after that person’s death. [/quote] Why not name it after: RFK, MLK, J. Edgar Hoover, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, Northern VA, Virginia, or Frederick Douglass[/quote] Why would you name it after RFK[/quote]
