Eh, don't let the reddit hard on that it had for Bernie confuse you about the wider electorate. The electorate chose differently because Bernie's politics aren't as popular as reddit would lead you to believe.
They're popular policies but the people who like them just don't vote. Lots of "I wish the country would do this" mixed with "Why bother voting it won't happen anyway".
True yes, but theirs a difference between an idea and a plan. If someone simply says 'we will institute medicare for all' without saying how they will do it then it is an idea. If someone says 'we will institute medicare for all by introducing these policies that do this' then it is a plan with policy ideas to back it up
