John Wayne, JFK, Reagan and Bob Hope aren’t just celebrities and politicians – they’re also airports. Supporters are hoping Harvey Milk will join that roster. One city supervisor is proposing renaming San Francisco International Airport after the former supervisor and gay rights pioneer. But a recent poll suggests 61 percent of likely San Francisco voters oppose that idea. Do you think SFO should be named for Harvey Milk? What would you rename the airport?

Guests:

David Campos, San Francisco supervisor for District 9

Jim Lazarus, senior vice president of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce
