Having different preferences to economic systems is fine. People don't have to accompany capitalism like sheep, and you don't need to be "more educated" if you happen to be a believer in socialism. This is all ********.
But I'm sure Donald Trump would a great champion of your capitalist beliefs, maybe this is why he's one of the people you admittedly wouldn't mind seeing as president.

Well thats the most extreme form of Capitalism...just as Socialism comes in shades, so does Capitalism.
Neither Capitalism nor Socialism is black or white, they work best when combined to form a mixed economy (essentially what we have now), although there simply isn't enough regulation to balance the scales.
Hillary's ideology best suits a strong mixed economy, whilst Bernie's focus on the extreme redistribution of wealth instead of promotion of opportunity is a big no-no for me. Would still vote for him above Trump though.
he's economically illiterate and wants to run America like one of his businesses (many of which have failed). His immigration policies stem from pure racism and he's a constant supporter of building the international-embarrassment, the troubling-to-global-communities and logistically irresponsible "wall" which he carelessly promises that Mexico is going to pay for.
