No they weren't.
Expanding Medicaid to welfare and age 55+ is not universal healthcare.

The 2010 ACA is far more comprehensive than the Democrat platform from 2000.
You are imagining a past Democratic party that never existed. Back in 2007, Obama was against gay marriage. Before him Clinton was, "Don't ask, don't tell- or you'll be removed from service." It's another example of how Democrats have moved left.
Democrats are farther left than they were 25 years ago. You hold Democrats to an ideal that never existed to rationalize your letting Trump win.
