Vice president Joe Biden told a Minnesota radio station Friday he has “no intention” of serving in Hillary Clinton’s administration as Secretary of State or any other role.
Politico reported that Biden is Clinton’s preferred candidate for the post of Secretary of State, though it said Clinton hadn’t approached Biden about the matter yet.
But Biden said Friday he simply wasn’t interested in a job with Clinton’s administration.
“I don’t want to remain in the administration … I have no intention of staying involved,” Biden told Minnesota radio station KBJR.
Biden added, though, that he wanted to “help [Clinton] if I can in any way I can.”
It’s not clear whether Biden’s disinterest is absolute, or if he could be talked into serving as Secretary of State despite his doubts.
