Whatever any presidential candidate may promise, there is only so much they can do within the constitutional powers of that office. They can't write the bills, they only sign them into law or veto them. When the republicans dig in and refuse to make any good faith effort to solve the country's problems until their candidate is president it makes it a little tough to get much done. Regardless, for those who care about progressive causes, its better to have a president in office ready to sign them into law than one who is eager to veto them.
