>> began a campaign for president by promising to take us back to yesterday. [ applause ] >> yesterday is over. [ applause ] >> and they've got a deal. congressional democrats and republicans agree on reviewing the iran agreement. will the white house accept it? >> and the president cannot let while i congress is reviewing this cannot let the congressional mandated sanctions which is what they've been trueing to do and push for over the last couple of weeks. good day everyone. from iowa the first stop on hillary clinton's campaign tour. so far she's gone 1,000 miles plus crossing into iowa last

night. and today already went to a coffee shop. there she was at chipotle. she's stopped at a coffee shop in iowa not far from here. then she's coming to the community college where we are located meeting with teachers and students small group probably eight to ten people. i spoke to students from the community college today. they were all very excited about the fact hillary clinton is coming to jones county iowa a rural and remote spot. right now, i'm joined by chris from the washington post in washington of course. jeremy peters is going to be joining us from the "new york times"." there's only one road. here we are in iowa. this is where hillary clinton has come. this is so self-consciously low key. here she is. it's her first campaign day.

so much goes into this. as you wrote today in the "washington post" while she's doing a low key one on one deal top officials including one of her traveling companions deputy chief, is on the phone joining in to calls to big contributors trying to raise what they hope will eventually be a billion dollars. >> right. this is a study in understatement. it's all calculated. they want to have hillary clinton pictured only doing these kinds of small events and not having big fund-raisers and so forth. that doesn't mean they're not raising done. that doesn't mean all the architecture a that goes into a giant campaign isn't already. >> it does create a lot of challenges and issues that are to be worked out. there she was at a coffee shop one camera permitted in and none of the reporters allowed to be there. we'll of course see her interacting with students later

today. chris, what is this getting her, this very low key understated approach even though it takes a village to create this kind of low key campaign? >> i was going to say, it's like a dock on the surface looks like it's moving slowly and calmly. under the surface, she's paddling. you're talking the the second she got in -- she got in because she wants to raise the money she's going to need. it's going to be in the hundreds of millions if not billions. i think what they're trying is something interesting. they looked at the 2008 campaign and clearly and rightly concluded, running her as sort of i'm hillary clinton in quotes. you know me the person that's ready to lead on day one. i've been famous for a very long time, been in this space for a long time. you should vote for me by acclamation acclamation. that didn't work. this is a clear attempt to go as low profile as anyone who's name

is hillary clinton could probably go which isn't that low profile. it's the direct opposite of that. my guess they'll wind up in between those two ends of the spectrum that this is the beginning of the campaign trying to send this message that she rides in a van, eats at chipotle takes pictures with people at rest stops. there's going to be more high profile i stuff. they've swung in the opposite direction to start. >> she certainly did upstage to a certain extent marco rubio in his campaign yesterday and now back in washington emphasizing disagreements with the president over iran and cuba. as a member of the foreign relations committee, he's very engaged on capitol hill today. big day there. more on that in a bit. jeremy peters rubio said yesterday is over. that's a slap at both hillary clinton and his mentor jeb bush. he is pitching himself as the

new generation. >> it's very important yesterday as you listened to his speech he had coded messages that could have applied to hillary or jeb. i thought the most striking thing he said was when he said i want to live in a country where the son of a bartender and maid can have the same dreams and hopes as somebody who comes from power and privilege. that -- when i heard that at least -- i heard jeb bush. he's very much making it a forward looking argument. he's doing that in a way that really nobody else on the republican field can. >> kasie hunt sat down from marco rubio before he flew out today. here's part of that. >> do you think jeb bush represents the older generation you reference this your speech yesterday? >> ultimately candidates are judged on ideas not biological aid. >> but you're running on your biography. >> i want people to know how i

feel and where i come from. >> so jeremy marco rubio is an interesting candidate. obviously his cuban american background, different generation. is there space in the republican party for marco rubio and jeb bush? talking to florida republicans, they seem fairly distressed this rivalry has erupted. we heard john mccain and others tried to talk him out of running this time. he wasn't having anything of it. he has decided not to run again for the senate. he made the decision rand paul did not make focus on this long shot for the nomination. >> that's exactly right. republicans do want to hang onto that senate seat in florida. i think this is giving them heart burn because it's going to be an open seat and they're going to fight to hold onto it. marco rubio is a politician who's been told no wait your

turn his entire life. it really was a lesson he learned early on that he shouldn't wait. when there's an opportunity that prevents itself you take it. sometimes you get lucky. he has -- he's extraordinarily skilled politician and also benefitted from a lot of luck. had he waited and said okay i'm going to hold off and defer to the establishment, he wouldn't be a united states senator right thousand. i think that informs a lot of his thinking behind why he wants to go run for the presidency now even though so many people say hold off. maybe you're not ready yet. let the older experienced republican hands have a shot at it. >> k. thank you so much jeremy peters. we do have breaking news now in the senate today where foreign relations committee chairman bob corker has struck a deal.

as you can see john kerry has been up there on the hill. bob corker struck a deal with congressional democrats as well. there's a deal on iran review. we don't know from the white house whether they're going to go along with this deal. joining me is senator ben carden, top democrat on the foreign relations committee. is this something the white house can live with? this would give you review of lifting the sanctions. >> well i hope they will. congress is the ones who impose sanctions as administration pointed out. we're the only ones to permanently remove the sanctions. with the manager's amendment that senator corker and i negotiated will give us an ordinarily way for the congressional review. it won't take place until after the agreement has been sent to congress after the june deadline. we will then have a limited number of days 30 days to review that agreement. i think it's an orderly way for us to review. we dealt with a lot of issues

that the administration felt uncomfortable with the legislation. it didn't deal directly with the review or notifications. we strengthened some previsions. i think it's a fair compromise. i hope the administration will look at it as a positive way for congressional review but strengthen the hands and negotiations. >> senator, what if after 30 days congress hasn't acted? congress is deadlocked. that tends to happen where you live. >> there's no requirement for congressional action. this will commence whether this takes place or not if administration enters into that agreement. it's prerogative of congress whether they act or don't act. there's no requirement for action. >> how much more complicated is because of what was said last week disvowing the agreement john kerry says actually was reached when we were all covering these very lengthy talks? >> one thing that we're in complete agreement here in congress is that we don't trust

iran. we don't trust what they say. we want an agreement that is very specific that will prevent them from breaking out, having break out capacity for a nuclear weapon so if they cheat, we can find their cheating and take action. this agreement is not going to be based upon trust. it's based upon specific previsions to prevent iran from becoming a nuclear weapon state. >> senator, i'm out here in iowa where we see the launch of the 2016 democratic campaign. does hillary clinton need opponents or can she fashion a campaign which will test her, get her ready for general election and do it without making mistakes she made last time making it seem they were entitled or it was inevitable? >> i think hillary is well prepared and ready to be the democratic nominee for president and also our next president of the united states. i think she's prepare add. obviously there may be different views among democrats.

we'll have a process we'll go through. her experience as united states senator, her experience as secretary of state. we know her well and know she's well prepared. >> better prepared than the former governor of maryland your state martin o malley? >> i have a great deal of respect for him. you asked me about hillary. i think hillary is ready. >> okay. that's the answer. obviously that's from a lot of democrats. she's so far out in front of all of them. thank you very much. >> my pleasure. good talking to you. >> coming up next she did endorse barack obama last time instead of hillary clinton. this time she says she's ready for clinton. you're watching claire up next. you're watching "andrea mitchell reports" only on msnbc.

. hillary clinton made her first iowa stop at a coffee shop this morning on her way to meet with students and teachers at this community college. it's her first public event here. missouri senator was an early supporter last time of barack obama against hillary clinton. joining me now from capitol hill, thanks for being with us. >> thank you. >> why hillary clinton this time around? >> well there's probably no one who's ever run for presidency that's more qualified than hillary clinton. her life experience is unqualified journey through various different experiences can which will allow her to be the strong president we need especially internationally right

now. >> and when you say especially internationally, there are vulnerabilities there. there's not only benghazi but there's also egypt, libya, interventions that many people criticize her intervention policies for she and the president. foreign policies not in such a great place. >> that's because it's a dangerous and complicated world. she has unique understanding of how dangerous and complicated it is. she's operated on that world stage. she has relationships with the leadership around the world of those countries that are important allies. she understands that you may need to think through decisions. she's seen foreign policy mistakes and seen foreign policy successes. she knows the difference. if you look at that in context of what's going on in the world and if you look at the field against her, she stands head and shoulders above all of these men in terms of her preparedness for

international stage. >> how does someone who's one of the most famous women in america come on a tour like this driving through -- driving across country to iowa and make it seem as though it's sort of a casual road trip? it does seem a little artful. >> well you know no matter what she does there's going to be criticism. if she has a great big auditorium full of people cheering, they're going to be criticisms of her. this is who she is and how she's lived with all a kinds of incoming criticism. i think she's being genuine here. i think she sincerely is harkening back to days on a listening tour around new york and what she learned from that. i think she sincerely wants to connect with american people and make sure she understands the urgency of now in terms of divide and families who aren't sure they can afford to retire

and wall street they're not sure they can count all the money they're going to get when they retire. that's what this is about. i think it's genuine i think it is real, and i think it's going to be very successful. >> speaking of what she learned during her 2000 race for the senate in new york state, her campaign manager was bill de blasio supported and endorsed by both clintons. he took a shot at hillary clinton on "meet the press" reuz refuseing to endorse her saying she has to prove herself. does that seem ungrateful? >> i'm not going to speak to another elected officials policies. i know hillary clinton is strong tested and ready to be president of the united states. i look at the field. if you look at rubio. he wants to say he's new. there's nothing more stale or tired than a politician who decides he's going to take a

principle courageous stand on immigration reform. the minute he gets heat from the base his party, he runs and hides. that is not new and fresh. that's old. that's not a profile in courage. that's not what america needs right now. i think when you stack hillary clinton up against the field and it is a big field, you're going to find strength and stamina and the ability to get this across the finish line. >> what do you think about rubio referring to people who are -- well to clinton and saying that yesterday is so over? clearly taking a shot at her for being the past. he's the future, too old perhaps. >> it's interesting because i remember when democrats campaigned against ronald reagan, what they said about him. sometimes age is not a disadvantage. you have to look at candidates, what they believe, what they fight for, what their policies are. that's what america cares about.

a lot of this is show and smoke and mirrors. at the end of the day, americans will look and see what they have fought for courage they have shown, what they've been through and whether or not they're tested. on that i think hillary clinton is going to be head and shoulders -- including different hair dos and comments she's going to have that are inappropriate in terms of how she looks -- still head and shoulders above the competition. >> claire, thank you so much. great to see you. we're live from iowa coming up after a short break.

ideas come into this world ugly and messy. they are the natural born enemy of the way things are. yes, ideas are scary and messy and fragile. but under the proper care, they become something beautiful.

we are the change. i think it's really exciting that she's reaching out to young people starting out her campaign. >> some of the students i spoke to they're high school students that take classes here at the community college where hillary clinton will hold her first public event. early early today she was in o claire, an hour and a half from here in iowa at a coffee shop. it's a deliberately low key approach to campaigning. joining me is anne lewis, long time hillary clinton advisor from 2008 and again this year. great to see you. tell me the thinking behind this strategy of starting with such a one on one quiet approach to the voters here in iowa obviously the road trip as well. >> yes. let's start with again the 2000 campaign. i heard senator mccaskil talk about that. i was able to watch hillary clinton get up close and personal with voters in new

york especially upstate new york. listening to people caring about what they cared about. the conversation she had during that listening tour turned tout form the basis of economic policy she took to the senate and worked on. i think what people in iowa are going to see and hear is someone that cares about, is interested about what they have to say. in the process, they're going to learn more about b hillary clinton. this is the young woman who is a lawyer that went door to door looking for children that weren't in school and went on to join the children's defense fund. based on these conversations, as young people say it's going to be excited. i'm excited too. >> she was meeting with people in o' claire here with the people that were in the coffee shop. there's no opportunity to ask her questions or for her to lay out economic policy. she says that the deck is stacked in favor of people at the top. what are her stance on economic issues? >> let's watch the ark of this

campaign. i think as you heard and saw on the video, who were the people on the video? what were they concerned with? a young student out looking for a job. two brothers that want to start a business. a young woman on verge of retiring. those give you the frame for economic policies we need to address. other people in the campaign say this is the phase to listen to people talk with them not at them, hear about their concerns. as we go closer to may, you're going to hear more policy rollouts. what those policy rollouts will be formed based on one principles hillary clinton has had throughout her life and two the concern she brings to this. how do we build a better future for every child in america, and build a policy to help middle class and businesses succeed? i'd look at working families better futures for children,

small businesses sukcceeding. those are building blocks for economic policies. you'll hear more as the campaign goes on. >> how do you feel about bill de blasio and what he did on "meet the press" refusing to endorse hillary clinton after all the help bill and hillary have begin him in his career? >> i was watching bill. i worked with bill in 2000. i thought i'm going to be working with him again in this campaign. i think he'd like to come to that endorsement of hillary saying these are the issues i care about and i know she cares about them too. >> okay. ann lewis, thanks so much from the hillary clinton campaign in washington. more from iowa coming up we'll have former governor ed rendon dell and steve schmitt when wre come back. to unlock the possibilities of tomorrow......"lift

hillary clinton is recycling what worked for her 15 years ago when she first ran for political office. it was her senate race in new york state going around upper new york state a talking to small groups of people. >> hillary clinton now has two titles, first lady of the united states and senator elect from the state of new york. >> came out of cities with a three to one edge. she's split in rural a areas. traveling in 62 counties did pay off. we carry the sub herbs but she was with him in the rural area. >> that's the templates for this race. joining me former pennsylvania governor and national chair of the democratic party ed rendell.

and steve schmidt msnbc contributor and chief strategist for john mccain's campaign. >> these are early days. secretary clinton has a very different strategic dynamic than republicans do. she's highly probable to be the democratic nominee for president of the united states. she has more time than the other candidates do. she certainly going to be the general election candidate. she's using this time now to build this war chest, start raising money, build the national organization and to reintroduce herself through the prism of a presidential candidacy. early days on this but looks like a successful start to her launch. >> and ed rendell, how does the best known woman, politician in america, one of the best known people in america reintroduce

herself? does it smack a little bit of reinvention? >> perhaps all of us in the media. i don't think people care. if people come to a small event for hillary clinton, they're though the thinking boy she's trying to reintroduce herself. they're saying to themselves let me hear what she has to say and how she responds to our questions and suggestions. as you pointed out she did it incredibly successful with the listening tour in new york. people think hillary clinton was a i flawed candidate in 2008. she was out of the gun when she started out, but by the end of the campaign she had found her voice. he was the populist candidate of working class democrats. she did great in the last seven, eight, nine primaries. pennsylvania ohio texas. she was a strong candidate by the end. she's going back to a formula to work for her. i think people are going to take her at face value. they're going to listen ask questions. they're going to present their

concerns. i think it's going to work very well for her. >> and steve schmidt what about marco rubio and the way he launched himself as the next generation taking a shot at hillary clinton and jeb bush saying that yesterday is over? is that a good strategy? >> marco rubio is a first term united states senator with no executive experience in his early 40s. what he's trying to do is take his chief liabilities to make them assets. there's two types of elections, change elections, more of the same elections. marco rubio is articulating a change message. that message has every ability to be very impactful with regard to the candidacy of jeb bush. that message that look time to move forward to a new american century. that excitement and change energy. we'll see if he can sustain it and maintain it.

there's efficacy with regard to that message. particularly after eight years of an obama administration where there will likely not be the same type of energy four more years there was for example after the reagan presidency in '88 when walker bush was the last person elected to a third term to an incumbent party that held the white house. >> in fact that really is the challenge ed rendell because it's very rare george herbert walker bush was one example after reagan. it's rare that a third democratic term or republican term would be acceptable to the voters in the general election. >> well that's historically true, but i think each election takes place in the context of circumstances around it. we don't know what the circumstances are going to be. if isis and foreign crisises are still important, hillary clinton's experience as secretary of state and as a

senator are hugely important. hugely important to her. if the economy continues to rebound, i think that rebound will be to her benefit. there's no question about it. >> ed rendell and steve schmidt. finally steve schmidt chris christie again today in new hampshire. do we think he's still seriously considering getting into this race? race? >> he's very skilled. if hillary clinton becomes the democratic nominee, it will be no no small part to resiliency. chris christie has had a couple of difficult chapters over the year or so. new hampshire gives him the opportunity to meet voters one on one. gives him the opportunity to show his formidable skills. john mccain was in last place and dead broke in late july august of 2007 became the

republican nominee by planting a flag in new hampshire and saying i'll make my stand. bill clinton became the democratic nominee in 1992 because of insurgence he experienced in new hampshire. this is the state both parties have gotten second chances. chris christie shouldn't be counted out in my view a wide open republican field at this time. >> that's why we love politics. steve schmidt, ed rendell, thank you both so much. let's turn to luke russert in washington with other breaking news today. luke? >> we love politics indeed. great job in iowa. new video has come in of volunteer reserve deputy robert bates turning himself in to the county jail. he was booked and released a short time later after posting bond. he was charged with manslaughter after he shot and killed eric

defiance never grows old. citracal maximum. easily absorbed calcium plus d. now in a new look. marco rubio is back on capitol hill after declaring candidacy for the presidency yesterday. to point out his disagreements with the white house over iran and cuba he's in congress where he's a member of the foreign

relations committee. he was asked yesterday about the cuba policy given his background as a cuban american. >> you have strongly criticized president obama's restoration of relations with cuba. if elected edelected, would you reverse that? >> absolutely. i think the cuban people are free and have the right to choose what economic model they'll follow. i don't think believe these changes will further democracy. in fact i think it will make it harder to achieve. >> steve from washington. how important is his identity as a cuban american as part of his platform? you were there yesterday. it was exciting. >> i don't think andrea i had ever spoken with a candidate at that particular moment. he acknowledges his biography is a big part of his appeal and

appeal to republican professionals worried about the latino vote. the latino vote is very complicated complicated. what is going on is larger. rubio and other republicans are engaging in making foreign policy into the obama care of the 2016 election, by which i mean they're determined to be absolutely against and promising to roll back a policy of president obama. in this case his outreach to hostile nations. not just a cuba but iran. >> you spoke to barack obama before he went to panama for the meeting about iran. you've had the chance to evaluate both approaches to foreign policy. >> radically different approaches. rubio and scott walker of wisconsin have spoken of

immediately rolling back the iran deal if it's finalized and if a republican is then elected. that's something that scott walker said he would do on day one. that's something rubio says he would do immediately. that's something barack obama in our interview called foolish. he told scott walker to bone up on foreign policy. when you look into this you realize this theory a new president could roll back everything that president obama has done without the aid of congress in the last year or so. it would be very hard. there would be consequences. there would be allies that might not be on the same page as the united states. there would be business groups in the united states that want to do business in cuba and iran who might not necessarily see the benefit into going back to more hostile territory. >> and that actually brings it full circumstancele back to iowa the clinton campaign. people ask how close is hillary clinton and barack obama former rivals? really he has to be seeing the

the possibility of a clinton nomination and clinton winning the white house, if she were to as the only way to reserve the legacy of policies of engagement with iran and cuba. >> you begin to realize how very important this is andrea and realize the strangeness of the political moment we're in. it's commonly said among many political professionals democrats have a huge will electoral advantage now. they have a demographic advantage. it gets better in each election as minority groups get larger and vote so heavily democratic. it's presumed democrats have a have an effect on governing majority. they've lost vast majority of governor ships, both houses of congress, most state legislators. what democrats have right now is the white house. you do realize that although it might be hard harder than republicans suggest to roll back many of president obama's policies, that a huge amount of

this president's legacy is riding on who wins the next election. >> and steve, always a pleasure. thank you so much. thanks for being with us. >> andrea, any time you ask, i'll come by. >> thank you my friend. coming up incredibly it's been one year since hundreds of girls, young students captured and kidnapped by boko haram in nigeria. we'll have stephanie's exclusive reporting coming up next.

these girls should be brought back. >> on the anniversary of the bring back our girls kidnapping, cities around the world are planning a global schoolgirl march. these girls are going to join. >> i want to encourage them to not just learn about them but say how can i help? >> a year later, help is still needed. >> and stephanie joins me from new york. it's heartbreaking to see that all the energy and passion that went into the campaign with the exception of people you interviewed seems to have really evaporated evaporated. nigeria is left with a new government because the incumbent president could not do anything about this criminal the terror group ravaging his country. >> yeah and you know interest in this story was not outlast by

conflict itself. what you see now is boko haram in northern nigeria are proceeding more or less unchecked andrea. killings kidnappings, attacks that continue. you still have 219 of these girls unaccounted for. while the world has turned away the government in nigeria has tried to tackle boko haram. it's both their responsibility and also worth pointing out this is not a rag tag group. this is an organized group of extremists that are incredibly well armed. we incorporated special forces from neighboring areas. that group we were with was attacked and seven soldiers were killed. it gives you a taste of how difficult the conflict is over there. >> the u.s. promised help, but what they found nigeria first didn't want to ask for military help. then u.s. officials tell me there was so much corruption in nigeria's military a, they

weren't sure the help was get og to where it needed to be in terms of intelligence and weaponry. >> and now the change in leadership. the president of the country, a former military leader. they're hoping he roots tout corruption. his campaign focused heavily on taking the fight stronger to boko haram. there's hope some of the girls may come home. at least boko haram can be undermined in some way. >> stephanie gosk, thank you for your reporting keeping focus on this. that does it for this edition of "andrea mitchell reports." follow the show online and facebook and twitter @mitchell reports. and thomas is up next. >> great to see you. great work in iowa. of course up next we're ramping up as hillary clinton preps to go face to face with iowa voters
