You seem to assume that most people who like Bernie at your school are sexist and misinformed, at least, that's how your article comes across. But the people you talk to most likely actually don't want to get into a political argument in school. The reason most people hate Hillary is because they value something different in their candidate than you do. They value transparency and consistency, which Bernie has much more of than Hillary does. They value a candidate who has a progressive stance on issues that don't specifically regard them /before/ it's popular (ie. Bernie w/ Gay rights. Being for gay rights in the 1900s was NOT easy at all compared to today, and yet Bernie was standing up for gay rights a good 20 years before Hillary was in 2013)

And that's totally fine. We don't have to value the same thing in our candidates. But don't assume everyone who hates Hillary is a sexist boy.
