I think there is sexism in the race for the US Precidency and it will not completely disappear in such a short period of time.

Donald J. Trump (click here) easily dispatched his Republican rivals in the Michigan and Mississippi presidential primaries Tuesday and won the Hawaii caucuses, regaining momentum in the face of intensifying resistance to his campaign among party leaders.

That sums up the problem, doesn't it? The establishment politics of the Republican Party has used rhetoric and manipulation to gain confidence of the electorate and the electorate has had enough of it.

Senator Bernie Sanders scored an upset win in the Michigan Democratic primary, threatening to prolong a Democratic campaign that Hillary Clinton appeared to have all but locked up last week.
Mrs. Clinton lost badly in Michigan among independents, showed continued weakness with working-class white Democrats, and was unable to count on as much of an advantage with black voters as she had in the South.
Addressing reporters in Miami while the votes in Michigan were still being counted, Mr. Sanders said that his powerful showing indicated that “the political revolution that we’re talking about is strong in every part of the country.”
“And frankly,” he added, “we believe that our strongest areas are yet to happen.”...

Bernie Sanders is a breath of fresh air to many Americans. He is an important person. 

Hillary Clinton has to find a better dialogue regarding the email election problem. I think the change in law in the past four years since she served as Secretary of State. Some of this is sexism. How much of this is, ".. the best way to spread a message is, telephone, television and tell a woman?" 

Hillary Clinton has to find a better message for Independents. They are important people with issues they want resolved. They aren't just a political constituency. They are real Americans that need the attention of Democratic candidates.
