WASHINGTON — Vice President Joe Biden is on the list of possible contenders for Hillary Clinton’s secretary of state, should the Democrat win the November election.
That’s according to a person familiar with Clinton’s transition planning. It’s unclear how many people are under consideration or whether Clinton herself has asked for Biden to be considered for a job she once held.
Clinton aides are trying to tamp down speculation that they’re already planning for the White House.
A person familiar with Biden’s post-White House plans says the vice president has not been contacted by the campaign. Biden has said publicly and privately that he is not interested in serving in the next administration.
The people familiar with Clinton and Biden’s plans both insisted on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss internal planning
