The “progressive” quote and its implications set the parameters for the next presidential election.
Folks who want to define themselves as being further to the left than orthodox liberals now use the term “progressive.” If this were Denmark, they would be calling themselves socialist. But only Bernie has the courage and integrity to do that, so they refer to themselves as progressives.

Remember (or maybe not) that it was back in the early 1900s that communists changed their moniker from communist to progressive as a result of the Red scare and the adverse publicity. Same game, different name.
The way communists name things is a giveaway. “Peoples Liberation Army - China”, “Democratic People’s Republic of Korea”, “People’s Republic of China”, “German Democratic Republic (GDR) - communist East Germany”.
