Sen. Barack Obama on Monday named Reps. Sanford Bishop and Hank Johnson as the Georgia co-chairmen of his presidential campaign.
The two Democrats will play a largely ceremonial role for the campaign, helping to rally support and draw contributions.
Bishop, from Columbus, said Obama is the candidate for change.
"(He) is the only candidate who will challenge the conventional thinking in Washington and transform our politics," Bishop said in announcing his endorsement of the Illinois Democrat.
Johnson, from Lithonia, endorsed Obama last month.
