Hillary Rodham Clinton said she is yearning for a more private life after she completes her tenure as secretary of state.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Clinton said that she believes that U.S. President Barack Obama will be re-elected, and she expects to leave her current job after a transition in his second term.
"Then I am looking forward to being out of public life, whether it's high-level appointments like this or elected office," she said. "I have no interest in or no plans of any sort to pursue that any more."
Clinton insisted that her heart is elsewhere: "I am really looking forward to returning to private life."
