From the link in the opening post:

“Five years ago, could you have believed that half of Americans would agree we need a single-payer healthcare system?”

That’s how Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.)—a longtime advocate of guaranteeing healthcare for all Americans—responded to a new poll that found that 74 percent of Democrats and 51 percent of all adults surveyed support implementing a single-payer healthcare system in the United States.


“I think it is fair to say that from an ideological point of view, what the Democratic Party should stand for, we have kind of won that debate."

Health-Care being a right is just one aspect of what he's mentioning in that interview.
