Secretary Clinton was sworn in again late this afternoon in a star-studded event at the State Department with Veep Joe Biden doing the honors.
It is an overwhelming honor … to assume this position,” Clinton said. “We have a lot of work to do (to ensure that) America’s future can be even brighter than our storied past.”
“In selecting Sen. Clinton for this critical task, I think the president selected a person of unrivaled talent and experience,” Biden said. She is “equally at ease in the great diplomatic halls of Europe as she is in the small villages in Africa.”
