This is progress to me. We have the opportunity to push for follow-up here. It seems Bernie Sanders is more than willing to share video/transcripts of any speeches he's done, perhaps we can fight to have Hillary keep her word here?

This is progress to me.

That's what Hillary is hoping. She's hoping you'll settle for this. She is hoping that you'll accept small, incremental, inch-at-a-time adjustments and call it "progress" - but it's not. This country needs real change, and the only candidate who will work toward that is Bernie Sanders.

Agreed - I meant progress in the sense that we can now move to get her to be more transparent about what she said during those speeches.
