\"I'm really looking forward to being first lady and doing the things that [I did] as second lady, carrying on with military families and education and free community college, cancer [the Biden Cancer Initiative], that Joe and I have both worked on,\" Jill said in an interview last month on \"The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.\" \"And I’m going to teach as well.\"

\"It's hard for me to think of it in historic terms, I guess, because I taught all eight years when I was second lady,\" she replied when asked about the historic nature of her decision.
