WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama congratulated the Nationals on Friday for making the playoffs and is predicting a Nationals-White Sox World series.

During a campaign stop in Virginia, Obama also said he approves of RG3.

“I gotta say, he looks poised, he looks effective. I like the leadership that he’s showing in the huddle,” Obama said. “Obviously he’s an unbelievable athlete. My sense is he’s already exceeded expectations for a first-year quarterback.”
