Like what are the practical steps to take? Stuff like universal healthcare isn't even a controversial policy. How do we form a voting bloc around that?

It'd be more effective to try and get progressives into lesser positions, first - local government, state government, congress. Going straight for the presidency is a non-starter unless you can get the democratic party to buy in, which won't happen. Putting progressives into office elsewhere, especially if it forces the dems to start cooperating with them to pass policy, is an easier and more realistic starting point.
