One of the most obvious ways you can know that is because one is plural.

But since you asked so nicely about his tax plans, he has released a few early details: https://berniesanders.com/issues/real-tax-reform-policies-that-sen-sanders-has-proposed/

They have a right to see the entire tax plan, not bits and pieces prior to voting. Votes are earned not given freely.

Again, your campaign doesn't dictate the exact timetable of his campaign releases followed by wild accusations of lack of forthrightness. This is a contract Bernie has made with the voters, not with your campaign.

...when his opponent demands he do so, and you say "Bernie won't even do that."

Laughable.

BUt more like something designed just so she can say they were released. Records are hundreds of pages with test results. A school physical to play grade school sports is more comprehensive than this.
Can you imagine a letter describing what little Johnny eats and what games he likes to play being satisfactory to play school sports?

A comprehensive version would have been given to the DNC but we do not need that.

In fact, searching the article for the word 'medical' returned only 4 results.

(Fun hint - 3 of those results are in a single screenshot)

Addtionally, the article outright says that it was a two page letter over her health that was released and NOT her medical records.

Claiming she released full medical records is disingenuous at best, given what the article says was released.

<snip>

Clinton is the first 2016 presidential candidate to release her health records. The details came in a two-page letter from Dr. Lisa Bardack, an internist and chairman of the department of medicine at the Mount Kisco Medical Group near Clinton's suburban New York home.
