WASHINGTON --

Bill Clinton says he has no thoughts about returning to public office.

As for Hillary Rodham Clinton making another run for the White House, the former president says that's up to her. But he adds, "We're not getting any younger."

He tells NBC's "Meet the Press" that he's proud of the job she's doing as secretary of state. He calls it "pretty thrilling" that she's established such a good relationship with President Barack Obama, her Democratic rival for the presidency in 2008.

In Clinton's words, "It's a good argument for reconciliation."

Bill Clinton says he's happy running his global initiative that bring together the public and private sector to discuss solutions to climate change, poverty, global health and education.
