>> you said back in september about somebody who is now the highest rated in terms of popularity which is secretary of state hillary clinton about her in 2016 . if he wants to come home, i will be happy. if she wants to serve, i will be happy. she has to decide that.

>> it's up to her. i don't think she plans to do it and i think that you will understand this in 30 years or so. hillary worked really hard for 20 years. it's just been a constant relentless thing. she wants to come home and get a little rest and do other things. she thinks she -- she told you and everybody else she thinks she will probably never run for office again, but i have been there. i know what happens when you go through this decompression after years of relentless high pressure activity. i just think she needs to rest up and do some things she cares about and whatever she decides to do, i will support.
