41. He still has a lot more that he will do in the next 17 months

First he, Moniz and the rest of the administration need to help Obama get this through Congress. After that he has a wealth of problems to find solutions for.

A Boston Globe article on his long relationship with Moniz spoke of the two joining up on climate change. Moniz was an adviser to Kerry on this in 2004 and when he worked on it in the Senate. They did a great job working together on Iran.

Another recent article in the Boston Globe spoke of working on other issues with Zarif in addition to others on Aa political solution to Syria. Such a solution could be a game changer against ISIS - though it would be tough to get.

After 4 years at the pace he has put himself, he might be reluctant to continue another 4 years even if asked. He and Obama have a very similar view of the world. Not to mention, it is unlikely that another President and he would fit as well.

I know that after BC left office some spoke of him heading the UN. Kerry might actually be a better fit. Clinton was used to the executive power of the Presidency. Kerry's successes have been finding agreement.

I know there have been articles saying he needed this win. This requires ignoring his accomplishment getting CW out of Syria, the China climate pact that he was instrumental on, and the brokering of a solution to the contested Afghanistan election. With Feingold, he has helped in the African Great Lakes area. However, adding this makes him the most significant Secretary of State since George Marshall.
