Chafee, a Republican-turned-independent-turned-Democrat former governor and senator of Rhode Island, is looking to position himself as a primary alternative to Clinton, the race's overwhelming frontrunner.
In a phone conversation, Chafee cast himself as a staunch environmentalist who wants to protect civil liberties, avoid foreign entanglements and focus on growing the middle class.
He also looked to demonstrate he is not afraid to attack Clinton, at the same time that other Democrats considering run -- former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb and Vermont independent Sen. Bernie Sanders -- have shied away from direct attacks.
"Considering the premise for invading Iraq was based on falsehoods and considering the ramifications we live with now from that mistake, I would argue that anybody who voted for the Iraq War should not be president and certainly should not be leading the Democratic Party," Chafee said in a phone interview with CNN.
"Yes," Chafee said when asked if he plans on making the Iraq War central to his campaign against Clinton. "That's one of our big differences."
Clinton voted to authorize the Iraq War in 2002, a vote that haunted and helped sink her 2008 presidential campaign against President Barack Obama. At the time a Republican senator, Chafee was the only member of his party to vote against the Iraq War in 2002.
Chafee is an exceedingly unlikely Democratic candidate for president. Even opinion polls that include dozens of names of possible Democratic challengers have not mentioned Chafee as an option.

Chafee said he thinks Clinton, despite her soaring poll numbers, is beatable and that he will start exploring a run by going to Iowa and New Hampshire to talk with Democratic operatives and voters.
"I don't have a time frame" on when to announce, said Chafee. "I look forward to getting to city and town Democratic committees, calling their chairs, asking when their next meeting is and when I could attend."

There's one reason this Democrat thinks Hillary Clinton is unqualified
Hosts on the conservative cable news channel have repeatedly scolded Paul this week for flashing his temper.
Megyn Kelly grilled Paul about his interactions with the press, asking him if he gets "overly emotional." On the afternoon talk show "Outnumbered," the panelists were uniform in agreement that Paul needed to control his temper. The panelists on the channel's highly rated evening roundtable, "The Five," echoed those sentiments.
The message from the cable news channel's personalities was clear: If Paul wants to win in 2016, he better shape up.
The controversy began on Wednesday morning, when Paul grew curt with "Today" show anchor Savannah Guthrie. After Guthrie pressed him on shifts in his positions over the years, Paul accused her of editorializing. Later that day, Paul was abrasive when Associated Press reporter Philip Elliot asked him about apparent contradictions in his positions on abortion legislation.
The incidents prompted the media to recall when Paul shushed CNBC anchor Kelly Evans earlier this year.

By Wednesday evening, Paul was telling CNN's Wolf Blitzer, "I think I've been universally short tempered and testy with both male and female reporters. I'll own up to that."
In her interview with Paul on Wednesday, Kelly, who hosts a primetime show on Fox News, defended Evans and Guthrie for their line of questioning and admonished Paul.
"Those women were not yelling at you," Kelly told Paul.
On Thursday's edition of "Outnumbered," the news channel's afternoon talk show featuring four female hosts and one male host, Andrea Tantaros, a former Republican strategist, contended that Paul's interactions could be construed as sexist.
