She said she has four main goals: Building the economy of tomorrow, strengthening families and communities, fixing the political system and getting money out of it even if it takes a Constitutional amendment and to protect our country.

Clinton toured Kirkwood Community College and held a roundtable discussion with students and teachers in Monticello.

Clinton talked about education, having to go into debt to afford education and how the deck is stacked against average Americans.

"We have to figure out in this country how to get back on track," Clinton said.

I've been fighting for children and families my entire life because of my mother's example," Clinton said.

Clinton talked about her path to this moment and why she is running for president.

"I want to be the champion who goes to bat for Americans," said Clinton.

The event is the first of many small campaign events and personal "conversations" with voters, part of an effort by her campaign to tamp down big expectations.

Hillary Clinton outlines her 4 major goals during Iowa stop

MONTICELLO, UNITED STATES: Hillary Clinton arrives in Iowa on Tuesday during an overland road trip to begin a series of low-key meetings with ordinary voters and set the tone for her campaign.

It is in Monticello, a small town of 4,000 inhabitants in the key Midwestern state that the former top US diplomat will hold her first small roundtables with middle-class voters after crowding into a van traveling from New York.

Clinton finally announced her bid to join the race to succeed President Barack Obama and give Democrats a third-straight presidential term for the first time in more than half a century.

The announcement unleashed a fierce, highly-coordinated Republican attacks on her "failed policies of the past" and what they call an uneven performance at some of the highest levels of US government.

The 2008 campaign veteran struck a note of humility this time with her pledge to champion "everyday Americans" -- a departure from her hard-as-nails approach when she lost her party's nomination to Obama seven years ago.

She traveled via a modest mini-van with a small team, rather than a private jet, with much of her itinerary shrouded in secrecy.

So intentionally subdued was her trip that she managed to order food at a restaurant unnoticed in a Toledo, Ohio suburb.

The restaurant manager only recognized her after receiving a call from a New York Times reporter and watching surveillance camera footage.

An agricultural state of a little more than three million residents, Iowa plays an outsized role in US geography and political history.

It is the first electoral battleground for White House candidates, where voters make their preferences known before any other state in party primaries and caucuses.

Hillary Clinton arrives in Iowa on low-key campaign tour

When Hillary Rodham Clinton kicked off her 2008 presidential primary campaign, she soared into Iowa on a Gulfstream corporate jet, and nobody blinked.

This time around, Mrs. Clinton bounced into the state in a GMC van nicknamed Scooby, stopping at a Chipotle restaurant along the way, and set the country buzzing. Well, at least social media buzzed.

The contrast says a lot about the candidate and the kind of campaign she plans to run for 2016.

On her second presidential run, Clinton is downplaying her multimillionaire-star-politician status and trying to appeal to middle-class Americans and working-class voters. Her campaign announcement video touted "everyday Americans," and on her kickoff campaign road trip, that's exactly the image Clinton tried to project.

On her 1,000-mile road trip from her home in Chappaqua, N.Y., to her first campaign stop in Monticello, Iowa, Clinton's van pulled into a Pilot gas station in Pennsylvania Sunday, where she tweeted an image posing with a family from Michigan. On Monday afternoon, she stopped at a Chipotle restaurant in Maumee, Ohio, a suburb of Toledo, ostensibly, to fuel up for the long campaign ahead.

The presidential candidate, wearing dark sunglasses, and joined by longtime aide Huma Abedin, ordered a chicken burrito bowl, a chicken salad, a Blackberry Izze drink, and a soda.

The Chipotle pit stop was part of a campaign narrative designed to make the former first lady, perhaps one of the most recognized politicians on the planet, appear more like a low-key, average American.

It worked a little too well.

Clinton, barely disguised behind dark sunglasses, went largely unrecognized.

Apparently, Clinton's campaign wanted to see their candidate sighted, humbly ordering and paying for her chicken burrito bowl like an everyday American. So they telephoned The New York Times and tipped off a reporter, setting off a flood of stories.
