Actually, many Democrats have explicitly run on many of these issues

-Overturning Citizens United
-Codifying Women's right to choose
-Universal Healthcare
-Increasing Minimum Wage

And many Democrats have called for:

-Getting rid of Electoral College
-Outlawing Gerrymandering
-Term limits for SOTUS and/or increasing the size of the court.
-Significantly higher taxes on billionaires
-Banning Stock trading in Congress
-Having IRS investigate right-wing group's "religious exemption" status.

I haven't verified, but I assume many Democrats have called for taxing unrealized gains

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
