CONYERS, Ga. – Supporters of incumbent Georgia Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock have some surprising names they’d like to see at the top of a future Democratic presidential ticket.
Fox News Digital traveled to a Warnock campaign rally in Conyers, Georgia, on Monday and spoke with a number of attendees who praised the job they said he’d been doing representing them in the Senate, and even included him in the list of big-name Democrats they’d like to see eventually take up residence in the White House.
“If Joe Biden want[s] to run, we can give him a shot to run… but as a real progressive I want to see Warnock to run in 2028,” Flavien Shirandi told Fox.
Other supporters didn’t mention Warnock as a potential presidential candidate despite their enthusiasm about his runoff election against Republican Senate nominee Herschel Walker, however some did echo Shirandi’s preference for Biden.

“My little old man Joe Biden. I love him. I don’t care what they say. I love Joe Biden, and I will support him if he runs again. Yes,” Toni, an area resident, told Fox.
“I do feel the same way. He’s a little old, but I guess he’s doing a good job. So keep it up until the end,” another resident, Carlos, agreed.
Marilyn, a local nurse, had other Democrats in mind, including Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020 after serving as the mayor of South Bend, Indiana.
“He is so well-spoken, and he knows where he stands on all of these positions. And I just think that he’s wonderful. And of course Bernie [Sanders]. I’ll always love Bernie,” she added.
