Why? Not everyone thinks of him as highly as you. For the same reason you wouldn't like to see the Pentagon named after Clinton, I want it to stay free of Reagan.
Iran-Contra for one (without us getting into it) does not sit right with me. I can't support that kind of honor to him.
These honors become permanent. And right now there are a select group of Reagan fanboys who are just trying to ram anything substantial down the countrys throat in a period where it is uncouth to speak out or negatively about the man.
These kinds of honors should not be bestowed while he is so fresh in the nations mind. Give him time to remain on his accomplishments and worth and allow those not emotionally attached to the man to make a decision 25 years down the line.
