President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton address their evolution from bitter opponents seeking the 2008 Democratic Presidential nomination, to partners in foreign policy. Obama says he made the surprising decision to tap his rival because he wanted someone who was known on the world stage and says he thinks she is one of the best Secretaries in history. Clinton explains that after initially resisting she accepted the job because she realized she'd want Obama in her cabinet if she had been elected president. Clinton talks about the deaths at Benghazi, her testimony before the Senate, the head injury she sustained, and refuses to speculate about the presidential race in 2016. Steve Kroft conducts the interview for the CBS-TV show "60 Minutes".
