Kellyanne Conway listed several names on Sunday that she sees as a potential vice president pick for former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election.

Trump, the front-runner for his party's 2024 nomination, has continued to gain momentum since winning the Republican caucus in Iowa earlier this month. The former president also won the New Hampshire primary with 54.5 percent of the vote, ahead of second-placed Nikki Haley with 44.7 percent. Meanwhile, speculation over Trump's potential vice president picks has increased, leading to several prominent political figures being thrown in the mix.

However, Trump has given no real indication, beyond offering small heaps of praise to certain people and ruling out any chance he would pick Mike Pence again after the pair's relationship fell apart in the wake of the January 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.

In an interview on Fox NewsSunday Morning Futures, Conway, a former White House adviser in the Trump administration, was asked by host Maria Baritromo who she thinks will be the MAGA leader's running mate.

In response, Conway mentioned a few key names, including Ben Carson, whom Trump nominated as secretary of housing and urban development in 2017, while adding that she thinks Trump should pick a person of color.
 

"I think he should pick a person of color, " Conway said. "There are many great women in the Republican party for him to choose as well, but he is going to have monster returns electorally among Hispanics, African Americans, and Asian Americans. He has an embarrassment of riches no matter where he goes."

"I also think that, you had a guest on earlier, Ben Carson, has fast becoming a Trump world insider favorite," Conway added. "Very loyal to the president's agenda, won't compete with him, same can be said about Mike Pompeo. President Trump is probably looking at Marco Rubio, Byron Donalds and maybe Wesley Hunt."
