President Barack Obama appeared on “The Today Show” Monday morning, and told Matt Lauer that if Rahm Emanuel does decide to run for Mayor of Chicago, he must do so quickly.

“I think that Rahm will have to make a decision quickly because running for mayor in Chicago is a serious enterprise,” Obama said. “And I know this is something he is thinking about.”

Obama said that Emanuel has not told him about his plans yet, but he thinks that he would be “an excellent mayor” if he decided to move forward with the bid.
