Why the two party system needs to be revised....give someone else a chance

I will be 18 by the time the presidential election comes around and I wouldn't know who to vote for if the election was today. Obama, Cinton, McCain? Clinton appears done, and John McCain looks like a great Republican challenger for whichever Democrat does win the nominee. McCain and both Deomcratic nominees have their strong views and things I agree and disagree with but I don't know if I want any of the three running the country for the next four years.

This is why I dislike the two party system. If Independents (or any other small party) truly had a chance (and they don't because of backing). I wish that another party would come in and make this a more interesting election where three or more candidates would truly have a chance instead of just being "vote stealers" from the Democrats and the Republicans. This has been a problem for a long time, but we as Americans are the only people to blame because we allow two views to run our country. We don't give any other parties the power to influence what happens in our country; instead we just tend to vote for a third party candidate if we disagree with the views of both the leading Republican and Democratic nominee.
