Vice President Joe Biden has no plans to serve as secretary of state if Hillary Clinton is elected president, he said Friday.

“I'll do anything I can if Hillary's elected to help her, but I don't want to remain in the administration,” Biden told CNN affiliate KBJR, according to CNN’s reporters, who tweeted the vice president’s response.


POLITICO reported Thursday that Biden was at the top of the internal short list Clinton’s transition team is preparing for the Cabinet position.

“I have no intention of staying involved,” Biden added. “I have a lot of things to do, but I'll help her if I can in any way I can.”

Biden said during a campaign appearance for Clinton on Monday that he hoped to stay involved in domestic and foreign policy, but added that he was considering writing a book.

"This might disappoint you: It won’t be a tell-all book," he said.
