ALL-IMPORTANT PRIMARY, HERE IN NEW YORK, ONE OF AMERICA'S TOP

50 STATES.

(LAUGHTER) >>Stephen: SO TO GET SOME

INSIGHT INTO THE ELECTION, I INVITED SECRETARY

CLINTON TO LUNCH AT THE WORLD FAMOUS CARNEGIE DELI.

SECRETARY CLINTON THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TALKING TO ME TODAY.

>> IT'S GREAT TO BE HERE WITH YOU.

>>Stephen: THANK YOU FOR MEETING ME IN THE CARNEGIE DELI

WHERE THEY SERVE SANDWICHES AS BIG AS A BABY'S HEAD.

>> I WAS ACTUALLY HUNGRY AND I STOPPED BY TO SPENT TIME WITH

YOU.

IS.

>>Stephen: YOUR HUSBAND IS A VEGAN?

HE'S NOT GOING TO GIVE YOU GRIEF?

>> NO.

>>Stephen: HE'S NOT A SMUG VEGAN?

LIKE THAT SANDWICH IS SOMEBODY'S BABY?

HE DOESN'T SAY ANYTHING LIKE THAT?

>> HE'S AN OPEN-MINDED VEGAN.

>>Stephen: WHAT IS THE WORST THING YOU HAVE TO EAT AT A

PUBLIC EVENT?

YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY WHAT STATE.

PEOPLE KNOW IT'S IOWA.

>> RIGHT.

>>Stephen: THEY'LL FRY ANYTHING AND PUT IT ON A STICK.

>> WHEN YOU ARE WALKING AROUND THE FAIR YOU DON'T WANT TO STOP

SUBTLE DOWN AND EAT.

IF YOU GET IT ON A STICK DASHES.

>> YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE DENIED MEAT.

>> THAT'S 100% RIGHT.

>> POLITICS SEEM TO BE FINDING COMMON GROUND.

>> RIGHT.

>>Stephen: WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN COMMON WITH YOUR LIKELY

OPPONENT DONALD TRUMP OTHER THAN THE FACT YOU HAVE BEAUTIFUL

DAUGHTERS AND YOU BOTH WERE AT HIS WEDDING?

>> I'M NOT SURE YET.

I'M NOT SURE WHAT I HAVE IN COMMON WITH HIM.

HOWEVER WHEN YOU ARE PRESIDENT AND YOU'RE WORKING WITH THE

CONGRESS THERE ARE LOTS OF OPPORTUNITIES TO FIND COMMON

GROUND.

>>Stephen: WHY DO YOU WANT TO GO BACK TO WASHINGTON, D.C?

WHENEVER I'M DOWN THERE I WANT TO GET OUT OF THERE AS FAST AS I

CAN.

>> WELL THAT'S WHERE OUR SEAT OF GOVERNMENT IS.

>>Stephen: THE REPUBLICANS ARE LIKE A MEAT SLICER.

THEY ARE READY TO RUN YOU THROUGH THAT, WHY WOULD YOU WANT

TO GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN?

>> WHEN I ACTUALLY HAVE A JOB AS OPPOSED TO RUN FOR A JOB, I

ACTUALLY GET SOMETHING DONE.

AS FIRST LADY, SENATOR, SECRETARY OF STATE --

>>Stephen: YOU COULD -- >> YOU COULD HAVE EVEN TEN OR

15.

THIS IS ONE OF THOSE EFFORTS YOU HAVE TO GET UP AND WORK ON EVERY

SINGLE DAY.

YOU HAVE TO BE WILLING TO FIND WHATEVER COMMON GROUND EXISTS

AND THEN TRY TO MAKE SOMETHING GOOD HAPPEN.

>>Stephen: YOU'RE A GRANDMOTHER AND YOU HAVE GOT

ANOTHER GRANDCHILD ON THE WAY, I UNDERSTAND.

>> THAT'S SHRILL TRUE.

>>Stephen: ARE YOU A COOL GRAND PLA?

ARE YOU GOING TO LET THEM EAT WHATEVER THEY WANT?

>> I'M GOING TO BE SUBVERSIVE.

>> AND WHAT ABOUT YOUR HUSBAND?

>> HE IS SO HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE WITH OUR GRANDDAUGHTER.

>>Stephen: DOES HE GO GOOD NEWS WE'VE GOT KALE CHIPS?

>> I DON'T THINK HE WOULD DEPRIVE HIS GRAND CHILD.

>>Stephen: HOW ABOUT MY IMPRESSION, IS IT GOOD?

>> IT IS.

>>Stephen: CLOSE YOUR EYES, MAYBE HE'S HERE.

LAST WEEK IN NEW YORK YOU WENT TO JUNIOR'S AND YOU DIDN'T HAVE

ANY CHEESECAKE.

WHY NOT?

YOU SAID YOU WANTED IT BUT DIDN'T WANT TO EAT IN FRONT OF

THE PRESS.

WHAT'S THE DEAL?

>> >> IT'S AWKWARD EATING IN FRONT

OF THE PRESS.

>>Stephen: THEY WANTED YOU TO EAT IN FRONT OF THEM DIDN'T

THEY?

>> OF COURSE, SO THEY COULD GET A FUNNY SHOT, SOMETHING SO DROP

OUT OF YOUR MOUTH, YOU COULD SMEAR ON YOUR FACE.

>>Stephen: FIRST OF ALL, YOU WANT TO USE A FORK, TAKE UP JUST

A LITTLE BIT OFF THE TOP, AND THEN EAT AS MUCH AS YOU WANT.

>> (LAUGHING).

>>Stephen: SERIOUS!

>> (LAUGHING).

>>Stephen: THIS HUMANIZES YOU IN FRONT OF THE PRESS.

>> I CLEARLY NEED TO DO THAT.

YOU'VE GIVEN ME A GREAT WAY TO THINK ABOUT HOW TO DO THIS NOW.

>>Stephen: THEN YOU OFFER THIS TO THE PRESS.

YES, DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY INSULIN?

THIS IS LOVELY.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>>Stephen: OUR PLEASURE.

>> I'VE ENJOYED IT SO MUCH.

>>Stephen: YOU OKAY IF WE SPLIT THAT?

>> I'M FINE WITH THAT.

>>Stephen: I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

>> OKAY.
