Hillary - Secretary of State?
Comments 0 | Recommend 0WASHINGTON (AP) - President-elect Barack Obama has met in Chicago with Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is under consideration for a top post such as secretary of state.
A Democratic official says the two former presidential rivals met Thursday afternoon in Obama's downtown office. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to release the information.
The motorcade of Clinton, who receives Secret Service protection as a former first lady, was seen leaving the office complex shortly before Obama left for the day.
Obama has surrounded himself with several former staffers of Bill Clinton's presidency. Some of them are pushing Hillary Clinton as secretary of state. Other senators, including Democrat John Kerry of Massachusetts and Republican Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, also are thought to be under consideration.
