When you poll all of Bernie's policies he's just a centrist among Democrats. It's more radical not to support single-payer in terms of voters, it's only radical in the DC bubble. Even Joe Biden's wife admitted once in an interview that Joe Biden's positions on healthcare "might not be as good, but..."

He's just a Democrat from before the Clintons turned the party Republican-lite.
I don't think I have enough historical context to agree 100% with this but I definitely do generally. Clinton took his campaign and party rightwards to appeal to Republicans. He personally went down to Arkansas to campaign while Ricky Ray Rector was being sentenced to death so as to show his support for capital punishment.

Even guys like Mario Cuomo sound like Bernie compared to the modern Democrat. His "Tale of Two Cities" speech was very well done as a rebuke to Reagan's "City on the Hill".
