Here is an article with Sherrod Brown on healthcare. He has been a long time supporter of a single payer system (Medicare for All). However, he doesn't think that he can deliver that just now, because congress simply won't let Medicare for All pass. His approach is an incremental expansion of Medicare, which he believes that he can deliver on. He wants to start by lowering the eligibility age for Medicare to 50 or 55.
That is not exactly thrilling, when what you want is Medicare for All. However, I have serious doubts that Sanders, Warren, or Harris can deliver on Medicare for All. What makes Brown thrilling is that he is simply this competent sort who sets his sights on achievable objectives and delivers. I don't think that he would be saying that he can deliver on this expansion of Medicare unless he really thinks that he can do it. And I think those others are people who will campaign on a Medicare for All platform, even if they think their chances of being able to deliver are pretty bleak.
