While the Clinton Foundation has accepted millions of dollars in foreign donations while Hillary Clinton served as secretary of state, Bill Clinton says that if the foundation broke any rules or could be considered a conflict of interest, he wasn't aware of it.

"There is no doubt in my mind that we have never done anything knowingly inappropriate in terms of taking money to influence any kind of American government policy," Clinton told NBC News. "That just hasn't happened."
