I know this, but policy like ending college debt, single payer, etc. weren't discussed by the democratic party openly for a long time. Now it has become MS since Bernie ran.
As for the bold, I have no clue, I only watched the video. Glenn Greenwald retweeted which is where I got it.
It looks like the Dems have been talking about "Medicare for All" since 2003, 16 years now. Bernie didn't invent this idea.
Did you miss the link (complete with a quote) about John Conyers introducing Medicare for All in the House in 2003, with 25 co-sponsors?
If you are involved in health care, as I am, you've heard about this stuff for decades, actually.
And you've heard it die down as well after the 90s.
2003 it got the vast minority of democratic support, and was rarely talked about in the mainstream of the party. Kerry nor Obama supported it, and by 2015 it was not discussed as an Issue for 2016.
When Bernie became popular, that changed everything. I will ask you again, do you think Kamala et all would have endorsed it if not for Bernie?

I don't have a Ouija board or a seer stone, so I can't answer. I don't deal with "might haves"and the like. It seems like its time has come, like gay marriage and a lot of other things.

You don't have to. Kamala, Booker, etc. new endorsed Medicare For All.
It was Bernie's bill and the pressure he brought that got democrats on board.
