That has been kind of a running gag in SF

This reworking of the "Final Countdown" scenario is described thusly:

At the start of Australian author Birmingham's stellar debut novel, a United Nations battle group, clustered around the U.S.S. Hillary Clinton (named after "the most uncompromising wartime president in the history of the United States"), is tasked in the year 2021 with stopping ethnic cleansing by an Islamist regime in Indonesia. When an experiment goes horribly wrong on a special ship doing research on wormholes, most of the battle group is deposited in the middle of the U.S. fleet on its way to Midway in 1942.


In the supremely cheesy SF movie "Pluto Nash," the money has Hillary's picture on it.
