During an event in New York City on Wednesday, Hillary Clinton was asked the predicable question about 2016 but in an unpredictable way.

Were you to run for president in 2016, would you consider Elizabeth Warren or Julian Castro for your running mate? ABCs Robin Roberts asked Clinton, referring to her potential vice president pick should she seek the presidency, which she has yet to do.

Oh my goodness, Clinton responded, seeming surprised.

Clinton wouldnt answer the hypothetical, but conceded the tactic was pretty original.

Ive been asked this question many different ways, she said, to audience laughter. This is one of the cleverest.

Clinton continued to praise both the Democratic politicians, saying they are extraordinary leaders who she admires greatly.

But Robin Roberts pressed a little harder, and questioned the former secretary of state, who has the potential to become the first female president of the United States should she run and win, about her role in breaking glass ceilings.

When I look at your Twitter pagethe last thing you list is saying youre a glass ceiling cracker and no one feels it would be better to crack that glass ceiling than to have a woman as president, Roberts said, to audience applause, adding Many believe that should be you.

But even then Clinton, literally, didnt crack.
