Adding your name to a memorial already named in honor of a great man doesn't make you a great man. Quite the contrary. Putting your name on top of someone else's doesn't mean that people will speak of you in the same breath as the other man. Putting your name above another man's name on his existing memorial... What is that about? Truly? What's that about? Do you want people to speak the names as one? Dig
down deep. What are you trying to say? I'm really interested. There is no other president who would do this. None. Zero. In fact, it's not even legal. Congress named the performing arts center as a living memorial in 1964, and only congress can
change that law. This will always be the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Art. A great man would have said to his hand picked board, "Thank you, but the building already has its name. Let it
stand. Let it be. I don't need that." But then again...
