Hillary Clinton, the 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, said in an interview Monday that she has ruled out a bid for the 2020 presidential election.
"I'm not running, but I'm going to keep on working and speaking and standing up for what I believe", she says. "I'm not going anywhere", Clinton said. Asked whether she would consider running for any kind of elected office again, she said: "I don't think so". "And I'm also thinking hard about how do we start talking and listening to each other again".
"We've just gotten so polarized", she continued. "We've gotten into really opposing camps unlike anything I've ever seen in my adult life".

And while there were certainly millions of Americans who would have loved to see the 2016 nominee run for a third time, there are likely just as many Americans who are happy to that she has made a decision to give others a shot.
The list of Democratic nominees already includes a who's who of U.S. Senators, including Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, Kirsten Gillibrand and a bevy of Democratic lawmakers.
