The Washington Nationals confirmed this morning that they will be introducing a fifth racing president to fans this Saturday at NatsFest at the DC Convention Center.
Twitter is abuzz with speculation as to who it will be, but the most common guess seems to be JFK.
A giant Kennedy likeness made a surprise appearance during a race two years ago, and was seen again posing with fans at The Fairgrounds outside the stadium after Game 5 of October’s playoff series at Nationals Park
Who do you think it will be?
UPDATE: Everybody weighs in (including me)

Looks more like Conan O’Brien than JFK
Is it just me, or does the Kennedy likeness more closely resemble Beavis (or is it Butthead)?
Gonna be Lincoln, no question — they’ll bend over backwards to appear nonpartisan, so since Obama fashions himself as Lincoln expert (and who was our nation’s first Republican president), no doubt it will be him.
Oops, forgot Lincoln was already one of them. Probably Kennedy.
2 lines of thought – NO MODERN ERA PRESIDENTS or …..
let the 5th president be a wild card to whomever is the current president – Obama for the next 4 years and Hilllary after that 🙂
Wild card… That’s a new idea…
