I'm really lucky to have the kind of people I've got around me. I've got such a great group of predominantly young people, but so diverse, and they bring different perspectives to the table. They will tell me exactly what's on their mind.

I am neither frustrated nor planning anything other than being the best Secretary of State I could be.
