IF statements not updating values?

Amateur coder here. This example is from another piece of code thats longer but it's the same effect, the IF statement does not change the name being printed. Is there a workaround to this or how can I fix it? Thanks.

import random
person = ('Example 1', 'Example 2')
(random.choice(person))

name = None
if person == 'Example 1':
  name = 'Joe'
print(name)
